Arey totally, they tell you in the scans but honestly, those estimates can be so off! They told me my boy would be 3.5 kg and he came out a tiny 2.8 kg, making all those newborn clothes look like tents. Sleep as much as you can now, because right now my eyes are barely open while typing this!
Beta, the doctor will tell you the weight during your scan. In our times, we just focused on keeping the mother strong. Eat a handful of soaked almonds and drink warm milk with a little ghee at night, it helps the baby gain healthy weight naturally. But do what your doctor advises.
My MIL always says she can guess the weight by looking at my tummy, but scientifically, the doctor will give you the estimated weight in the scan. Trust your gynecologist's reports more than old wives' tales, dear. Just eat healthy, homemade food like ragi and curd rice.
It is definitely possible to get an estimate during your 8th-month scan. But remember, it is just an estimate and can vary. Please check with your gynac directly to see if the growth is on track, as only they can tell you if any extra diet is needed safely.
Yes, you can know it through the growth scan in the 8th month. Since I had thyroid issues, my doctor kept a very close eye on the baby's weight and made me do regular check-ups. Just stay regular with your doc appointments and thyroid tests if you have any history.
