Baby weight at 33 weeks

Hello mummies! My baby only weigh 1.7kg at 33 weeks. Should i be concern? Doc gave me 20days HL for me to rest. Any advice or tips for the baby to gain weight? #1stimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls

Yes need to try to eat food that can help to increase weight. I did try eating durian though, it helps abit. 1.7kg at 33 weeks still okay IF we are talking about you giving birth at full term which is 40weeks. Like mine was birth at 38weeks and birth weight was only 2.6kg. Given an average gain of 150gm per week you will end at 2.7kg at 40 week. So on the safe side, try to eat those food with high proteins. Oh also, usually the ultrasound weight measurement will differ from actual birth weight since it is just a guide.

Drink more avocado milk shake & durian. I did that. Because my baby is on the smaller side.
