Sounds like any baby that is smaller than the'norm' is labelled with IUGR. Some people just bake them smaller!!! Its such a horrible 'lable' for small babies!

My twins both has IUGR. Twin 1 was 1400g and twin 2 was 1800 grams. They are both now 5 years old and healthy and huge for their age- so no long term probs. They were 10 weeks early.

Elle's at 34 weeks, your bubba is not a bad size i reckon. Still time to put on weight, keep going!! As long as bubba is strong, they just need to grow when they come out.


My SIL has had 5 kids and they have all been born around 2kg each at 36+ weeks. She just bakes them small, but they are all a good size as well!


Good luck nicca- not not long till you are a mumma

Not everyone is the same size when we are adults- some are small and some are big- its the same with babies. As long as they are healthy- it shouldnt be a problem

take care
