My baby weighed 219gms at exact 20 weeks.They said it is less for baby's gestational age.I am going to my doctor to talk in detail.Actually how bad is this weight? Is my baby going to be OK with this weight? I am very much worried. Nav replied. Thanks very much all of you.I gave update in meena's message. Shikha replied. Hey Naveena!

Pls don't worry. It won't help... I think as everyone else said you should change your diet plan and see if that makes a difference. Take a help of a dietian or your doc in changing that. I hope and wish that the baby will gain weight properly thereafter.

shell ck replied. Talk to your doctor and ask if this weight is in acceptable limits. Ask what you should do to increase baby's weight. May be you can meet a dietitian.

Don't worry, your baby will be fine. I will pray for you and your baby.

Best Wishes,

Archie replied. Dear Naveena,
I fully understand your concern. Fetus can be between 9 to 12 ounce at 20 weeks.

Although seems little small with the size your fetus is likely to have all normal as the radiologist or Dr. where you had Level 2 ultrasound did not panic.

As said by Geetha all babies are different.

I however, would like to add a few things;
make sure that you get a full and all queries answered at your Drs. office.
You definitely would have to make change in your diet and amount of ingredients you are eating, there is a whole lot of time for baby to put on weight. Actually baby starts putting layers of fat at the end or second trimester.

For you, this is time to start Poultry along with Dairy products. I know you are a strict vegetarian. Although millions gave birth, we are all different with our body and strengths. Talk to your Dr. about nutrition and/or have a referral from a nutritionist.

I think a nutritionist is best but again he/she will be western with western diet. I would have to request you not to hesitate and go for whatever it takes for this baby.

Go on reading message, does and don't, of them 50% are despensable but we avoid for baby sake, similarly whatever our practice is we need to take something if baby requires this.

I believe your baby is having nothing to worry about and just a matter of you putting a different habit of nutrition.

Make sure you get plenty of Calcium rich food and start getting on Fat containing food as well.

Good luck
Archie priya replied. all will be fine so please dont worry Geetha replied. I think normally baby should weigh something around 9oz by 20 weeks but every baby is different. I don't know the conversion exactly.. 219gm means 7.3oz? Please don't worry seeing my message. I may be wrong. Talk to ur doctor. Make appointment asap so that this won't bother u for long. Eat well & Pray. Everything will be fine.
