Question

I'm really worried about my baby's growth since the scan at 30 weeks and 5 days showed a weight of 1265 grams with a variation of 185 grams. The report mentioned 28 weeks and 6 days with mild IUGR. I've started on argipreg sachets and alamine forte twice daily, and I'm trying to eat as well as I canmilk with protein powder, three eggs, dry fruits, curd, coconut water, and fresh fruits every day. Is there anything else I should be doing or keeping an eye on?
