fetal weight is an estimate and can be off by 20% or more it is an unreliable indicator of anything because it is a guess based on ultrasound measurements
crown to rump measurements and head circumfrence are better indicators of your fetus' development
normal development of the fetus at 20 weeks (5 months) is 8-10 inches long and around one pound

in case your infant replaced into in straightforward words born 1lb, then sounds like he/she is doing all right at 8 lbs. What does the pediatrician say? as long as your infant is gaining weight at a extremely generic p.c.., then each thing is tremendous. i'm confident it will take the newborn a pair years to capture as a lot as different little ones an similar age. i recognize twin ladies who're 3 (were born at about 3lbs each) and are merely now initiating to capture up. reliable success, and look after your little miracle infant!

Yes, it is... read the link below, click on your actual week and read about you and the baby, and he should be between 9 oz. - 1.5 lbs. and be between 10 inches to 13.5 inches long..
