IUGR/FGR, 1.9kg @ 35 weeks

Hi mummies, my baby is at the 3rd percentile weight & currently weighs 1.9kg at 35 weeks. Scheduled to be induced at 37 weeks. Been eating ALOT ever since in the hopes to gain baby weight. Any mummies who had similar experiences? Care to share how can I boost my baby weight & how heavy was your baby at birth? Needing moral support as I am really anxious & worried! Thank you! 💕

My baby was at 1.6 percentile and doc was very worried. Said we need to induce at 37 weeks and if blood flow drops may need emergency c section. At 34 weeks baby was only 1.8kg. My doc gave me HL as I was very stressed at work. It really helped. I rested on bed as much as possible and went for short walks. Ate 1 avocado a day, nuts, lentil soup, chicken, eggs, yogurt everyday. The high fat and high protein diet and leave/rest helped so much. In 1 week baby grew to 17 percentile! Was so happy during repeat growth scan at 35 weeks, he was 2.2kg.
