IUGR/FGR, 1.9kg @ 35 weeks

Hi mummies, my baby is at the 3rd percentile weight & currently weighs 1.9kg at 35 weeks. Scheduled to be induced at 37 weeks. Been eating ALOT ever since in the hopes to gain baby weight. Any mummies who had similar experiences? Care to share how can I boost my baby weight & how heavy was your baby at birth? Needing moral support as I am really anxious & worried! Thank you! 💕

I’m in a similar situation as you! 35 weeks at 2kg and to make things worst, I have GD. Doctor said it’s usually a challenge for GD mums to balance between controlling diet and baby weight gain. She’s also given me permission to eat durian once a week and try to see if baby’s weight can be boosted. I’m also taking a lot of soya milk and nuts. Maybe you can try? Jiayou! 💕

Thank you for your sharing! 💕 Appreciate it! Do you have to be induced? I did highlight to my gynae that I’m not quite in favour of the early induction & if can be pushed further to 39 weeks at least but was not recommended due to concerns of further complications etc
