What Does My Scan Report Indicate?
Question: I'm 30W 5D pregnant... today I had growth scan and baby weigh is 2 kg ... at 30 w 5d gestation is baby weight normal or its more... doctor didn't tell anything about weight
Brief Answer:
Weight is on a higher side.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
A baby weight of 2 kg at 30 weeks is more than normal. At this age the weight should be around 1300- 1400 grams. This increased baby weight can be due to maternal diabetes or an otherwise healthy baby.
You need to consult your gynecologist and get a glucose tolerance test done to rule out diabetes.
Do go for a regular scan after 4 weeks to re evaluate the fetal growth and any other abnormalities.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
