Weight Gain Question//Concern.

SheilaMae804

I'm 36 weeks and some change, and a couple weeks ago at one of my High Risk appts, they told me my lil guy was only about 4 1/2 lbs, which is slightly small. At my regular Dr appt this past Monday, my Dr said I'm measuring kinda small, and I hadn't gained since the appointment before then. My question is.. If I'm not gaining weight, Is my lil one still gaining? Granted, I'm small, 5'4" and 105 pre-prego, 135 now, and the daddy is 5'4" 145lbs. Maybe we're just destined to have a small baby?

You probably are. A good friend of mine is 4'10'' and her bf is 5'3'' both don't weight as much as my leg lol their baby was 18in 6lbs even. They are both just so small the baby was too lol everything else about the baby was 100% normal

I'm small as well only 4 11 and was 91 pre prago and now 102 so everyone keeps saying in. small but I'm not worried about it there us nothing wrong with small maybe as long as everything else is healthy it's part of their genes

I've only gained 4 lbs and am 36 weeks. My baby is measuring a lil small as well at 5 lbs 12 oz and that can be off by a lb either way. I know I am not gaining but at every growth scan I have the baby is getting bigger. Plus weight gain slows down for the mother in the last few weeks. Prolly due to decrease in appetite. I know I'm not really hungry anymore cuz the baby is taking up all my space. BTW Im only 5 ft and was 133 pre pregnancy as I couldn't lose the weight from my last pregnancy.
