How to increase weight of 8 m fetal baby
I have done USG on 20.03.24 where weight of the baby is 2274 gms. Expected date of delivery as per USG is 29.04.24 and as per LMP EDD is 16.04.23.
My doctor has suggested that weight of the baby is too low and baby is not developing inside the womb. So, surgery need to be done immediately on 28th March therefore she will try to increase the weight.
But, I have serious doubt, as baby is nearly 8 month, will he able to survive one month in hospital? Is there not any other medicine to increase weight inside the womb? Is surgery is the only solution?
Kindly suggest
