Baby’s weight

I am a NUH subsidised patient transferred from TMC private due to my medical history I have in the past. I only get to scan at week 32 after detailed scan at week 20 in TMC. And every visit is only hearing heart beat, sometimes they don’t even measure my belly. How do I or gynae know if my baby’s weight is in a healthy range? This is my 4th pregnancy & my belly is so much smaller compared to my 3 previously. When I scanned during 32weeks my baby’s head is down and hardly can see his face but it seems like he got protruded lower jaw (his chin meat look very thick and long). I am so worried but the doctor who scan says if detailed scan have no problem then shouldnt be a problem. Might be his position inside & he is sleeping inside at that point of time. I am really worried & I couldn’t request to scan again and see since it’s under subsidised :(

Hi, every prenatal check up di ka rin ba nila tinitimbang? It's one of the most important factor. Kasi they will recommend if you need to control your diet. Pero mas ideal yung maliit lang baby sa tiyan para di ka mahirapan manganak. Palakihin na lang paglabas niyan. Hoping for your safe delivery.

Gynae will start measuring your belly so don't worry. For subsidised, we only get 4 scans throughout our pregnancy. Also depends if there's any complications, you'll get more.
