[quote=Anonymous]A friend just had a baby this week. Over 40wks (they used IUI and so are certain of conception) and yet the baby was only 4lb 12oz. On the one hand, I don't want to pry and ask questions. On the other, I'm worried for them that the baby is not well. They aren't local and so I can't go by the house or hospital. Is it ok to have a full-term baby this small or is it a sign of potential problems? I know they'd been worried while she was pregnant that the baby was small, and she was on bedrest with a high-protein diet for a few weeks to try and pass some nourishment and calories on to the baby.[/quote]
