So because my baby is small I have to take steroid shots twice a week do anybody know do they actually help with the baby's weight
@cutie22, sounds like you may have IUGR. They may take him earlier. What does your doc say?
The steroids should be given in 2 sessions to help mature the baby’s lungs. Nothing to do with weight. Weekly appts will most likely be to monitor baby’s progress.
@cutie22, but I had to go weekly to my obgyn for awhile after that
@cutie22, that was it, they only made me go for it twice..
@joyfulmom so I know i have to take one Saturday and one Sunday but how often did u go after that
I had to get steroid shots two of them my doctor told me it was to make sure my sons lungs where strong enough if he was to come early, I came back positive for preterm labor that’s why he had me do it
@cams what's iugr he says height wise I'm short so he not to worried bit he is measuring two weeks behind
