You need to ask your: Ob to explain the percentiles along which you fetus' weight, length, & head circumference are growing, as the range of normal is 10th-90th%ile. As with growth charts in infants & chidren, what's important is the velocity of growth. 3 points make a line, so 3 fus's are commonly done. See http://baby2see.Com/development/week17.Html. Same with your weight gain re: your pre-pregnancy weight.
