Abdominal circumference of baby is low

2022-06-21 14:26:30
Hello, today i went to growth scan of my baby at 33 weeks 5 days but my baby's abdominal circumference is 26 cm not 29 cm as actual size for the gestational week. And baby weight is 1980gm. what may be the reason and is there any way to correct it by my food intake or exercises?

Baby weight is normal, increase protein and fluid intake. Regular visit at gynaecologist is must. Connect for prescription medicines.
