Self directed: The babies weight is determined by genetic factors and the adequacy of the placenta in providing nutrients.Baby weight increases gradually with gestation & they gain more weight in the last month than earlier. There are some conditions like maternal hypertension & smoking that can decrease babies weight. I know of no way you can make it increase faster than it will naturally.
