How do I ensure that my baby does not have a low birth weight
According to studies in the U.S., 7 out of every 100 babies are low birth weight (under 5 pounds 8 ounces) and 1 out of these have very low birth weight (3 pounds 5 ounces). This is because the mother might be a user of drugs, tobacco, alcohol, poor nutrition and antenatal care or even maternal illnesses and genetic disorders. Some are controllable and some are not. But in almost all cases, an excellent diet and adequate antenatal care are known to help.
Firstly, through an ultrasound, you must determine whether your baby is growing at a normal pace. If it isn't, take steps to discover the cause and correct it with your doctor's help

Dear Annu,
Pl. don't worry, its not necessary that every woman feels morning sickness and vommitting through out the pregnancy. You just take an appointment of doctor and check it out.. i think there is no prob. at all.
