21 Weeks Scan : Small Baby

Hello, i’m a first time mum and i just had my detailed scan. At the end of the scan, the doctor said my baby is small (below the 10th percentile). The doctor said my baby’s weight is 320g. Is this normal? I’m so worried!! Mind sharing your babies weight at 21 weeks? And tips on how to help baby gain weight? I am not allergic to anything and i usually eat whatever, so i was quite shock to know that my baby is small. Expected the baby to be big (i weigh 73kg) 😣

you can try avocado milkshake (home-made) and durian (in moderation). in early of 2nd trimester, i was having home-made avocado milkshade (half an avocado, 2 teaspoon of brown sugar and lactose-free milk each time) 1-2 times a week and had durian (4 seeds each time) twice. The gynae told me my baby was on the bigger side. for next months or so, I was preparing for the GDM test, so i cut the avocado milkshake and durian, and my gynae feedback that the baby is growing well (but nothing about it being on the bigger size). hope this helps! PS: some says chicken essence helps too.
