Went to the doctor today and I'm 33 weeks but my baby is measuring small?  What can I do to gain weight? IM already drinking ensure twice a day. Is it cause I stopped taking my prenatals? Help!!!!!!!!!

Your baby takes from you so of she is small then she may not be getting all the vitamins and minerals she needs. If you don't like your prenatal go look for a really good multi vitamin that you can take while pregnant. You gaining weight and eating tons doesn't mean she'll gain weight or get the nutrients needed unless you eat balanced meals.
