It's on the slight lower side..Lowe limit to say it as normal is 8.. but if the fetal Doppler is normal and if the CTG is normal, take arginine sachets and plenty of oral fluids and keep a watch over baby kicks count and can wait for labour pains to start.. And the weight of baby is adeqaute

Its not very low, but its on the lower side, since your already 38 weeks you can be induced for labour if all other parameters are good
