I'm 27 weeks pregnant and my baby weight is 2 pounds and 2 oz but the doctor told me that the baby is small please tell me the weight is normal ?

EFW: Estimated fetal weight (efw) in pregnancy is just that estimated. If your fetal growth is "slow" and the doctor is concerned about intra uterine growth retardation(iugr) you need to ask him/her what is needed now for improving or testing the fetus.
