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

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, sounds like you may have IUGR. They may take him earlier. What does your doc say?
