Pregnancy at 37 weeks 6 days, IUGR

2018-04-29 03:36:17
My baby is undergrowth iat 35 weeks n lags by 3 weeksn termsof abdominal circumference n FL, and weighs around 2300 gms. In the last ultrasound umblical cord is seen around the neck at 37 weeks. The NST shows the heart beat is fine and the baby movements are also fine. Yet the doctor insists to induce labour/ go for csec at 38 weeks, which I'm not keen as it is baby's head hasn't moved down much. Why induction of labour, if baby's head hasn't come down with umblical cord around the neck. Why not wait more for baby to growr
