Got my scan report today and it says EFW with some grams written next to it. Doc didnt explain much and i forgot to ask. Can someone tell me what this actually means na?
It means Estimated Fetal Weight on your ultrasound report. Mine was a bit on the lower side in my last scan, did anyone else's doctor tell them to eat more protein to increase it?
EFW stands for Estimated Fetal Weight! 👶 It’s just a sweet little way to track how much your baby is growing in the womb. Enjoy seeing those numbers go up! 💕
It literally just means Estimated Fetal Weight. Don't obsess over the numbers on the scan report because it's just an algorithm's estimate, as long as your gynac says the growth is on track, you're fine.
It's just the doctor's rough estimate of your baby's weight based on ultrasound measurements like head and belly size. Don't stress too much about the exact grams as it's never 100% accurate, just focus on eating healthy.
EFW is the estimated weight of the baby. I used to get so incredibly anxious comparing this number every week after my past loss, but my doctor gently reassured me that it is just an estimate and a slight variation is totally normal.
