I can't stand the fact that I've been crying non stop since the doctors told me my son is in the 5th percentile & weighing less than 4 lbs and I'm 37w3d, everyone making it seem like it's my fault" you need to eat more" " if you would've been eating in the beginning then maybe he would've gained weight" from my in laws , "friends" like I'm already at my breaking point stop making me feel worse about my son...has anyone had anything familiar happen to the how much did you baby come out at birth. Please I just need to feel okay about the situation

It's ok! It doesn't always matter how much you eat or anything like that. You can still have a healthy baby without them being 6-7lbs or heavier.

My babies were 35 weeks one was 4.14 no issue besides jaundice which is nothing to do with food. Don't stress I think you'll both be fine!

@michelle0822, my first child was born at 5lbs and 4oz and she was over due by 2 days it's not your fault sometimes we just give birth to smaller babies. My daughter is still way under the growth and weight for her age. You have nothing to feel bad for at all so don't let anyone bother you.

don't feel bad at all you didn't do anything my oldest daughter was born weighing 4.15 at 38 weeks and she was perfectly healthy just small and the doctor made me feel terrible but I as happy to have a healthy baby with 10 fingers and 10 toes. I came to relies after I had the rest of my children I carry small baby's because they were all in the 5 lb range

@rebeccca3009 did you get to take your oldest daughter home when you left the hospital or did she have to stay afterwards
