Patient's question:
My wife is pregnant and is 3 days away from being 28 weeks along. However, we feel that her belly hasn't grown as much as expected for this stage of pregnancy. She started at 104 pounds and is now 118 pounds, and she eats quite a lot, but her belly still isn't getting bigger. Is there any problem with our child? Please provide an expert's answer, thank you.Doctor's answer:
Some people naturally have a leaner body with thin abdominal wall fat, making them appear much smaller compared to fatter individuals. If you have an ultrasound and the baby's development size is normal, there is no need to worry.It is recommended that you visit the hospital for an ultrasound examination. If the ultrasound indicates that the baby's size and development are normal and align with your pregnancy weeks, you should not be concerned. Focus on rest, proper nutrition, and maintaining a positive mood.
