At my last scan doc said baby is measuring small and mentioned iugr. Im 30 weeks and honestly bohot tension ho rahi hai. is there anything that helps the baby grow better? if any mom went thru this pls share what u did.
I know exactly how terrifying it is to hear the word IUGR during a scan, my heart literally sank. But please try to stay calm as stress won't help. Trust your medical team, eat the protein supplements they prescribe, and monitor baby movements carefully.
IUGR cannot be 'cured' at home, it requires strict monitoring by your obstetrician. My doctor explained that it's often related to placental blood flow, so they prescribe L-arginine sachet or baby aspirin, and suggest left-side sleeping to improve circulation. Please follow your gynac's instructions closely and do your Doppler scans on time.
My baby was diagnosed with mild IUGR in the 32nd week. I was super scared, but my doctor put me on strict bed rest and a high protein diet, and we did weekly scans. We managed to carry till 37 weeks and had a healthy baby, so please trust your doctor.
Please don't panic, dear. Take complete rest, sleep on your left side, and eat well-cooked healthy food. Make sure to follow whatever medicine or advice your doctor has given you.
I was so weak from morning sickness that my baby's growth slowed down too. What helped was eating small, nutrient-rich meals like dry fruits and paneer, along with complete rest as advised by my gynac. Do whatever your doctor tells you, your health is priority.
There is no magic cure for IUGR, you have to strictly rely on your doctor's management plan. They will closely monitor the baby's growth and blood flow. Focus on a high-protein diet like paneer, eggs, and sprouts if your doctor advises, and take absolute rest.
