At just over 19 weeks mine was 15oz (books said 10oz). I asked my doc, she smiled and said "Babies don't read books!" Basically they will grow how they grow and no concerns there.

I agree, don't stress yourself out over the weight. Babycenter.com has a fetal growth chart with the averages for each week. But, they are just that, averages. At my 23 week appointment, my baby was measuring 3 weeks ahead of schedule. I just recently had my 28 week appointment, and she is measuring right at average. The Doctor said that sometimes they will hit a growth spirt. Congrats on your pregnancy!

Don't stress yourself out hun! Babies grow at different paces. What you find online or what people tell you your baby "should" be is just an average. My baby boy was about the same weight at 21 weeks according to my doctor.
