My first was 4lb15oz when she was born at 34 weeks and she was very healthy came home from the hospital 3 days after birth since I had a c-secion I think your baby should be fine just try not to stress to much since its not good for you or baby!

The only thing that can be done is in your hands really.  Just take care of yourself and heed the doctors advice.  It'll all be just fine!

I really don't think there is anything your doctor could do! But I've had 2 smaller babies one 4lb15oz at 34 weeks and the other 5lbs4oz at 38 weeks but they we're both very healthy and had no problems what so ever! Good luck to you hope everything goes well and always remember the ultrasound can be off by up to 2lbs I've heard.
