I just had my 20 week ultrasound and the doctor that did it got very quite and  looked worried, after a couple minute he looks at me and tells me that my daughter is 4 OZ. under weigh and head down and engaged, I'm not sure if I should be worried or if he was just being over worried!  I'm more then a little confused

    Please update. I am hoping all is well, but curious what is going on...did you call? What did they say? According to my book "Your Pregnancy Week by Week" 20 weeks should weigh 9oz, but you have probably looked this up by now. Have you had any MC symptoms

    Having been through quite a few experiences myself I'd suggest you call the doctor and ask questions. If you feel unsatisfied with the answers then you can go to another doctor for a second opinion. A baby being under weight can mean that you
