Asymmetric IUGR
I am 37weeks pregnant, in recent ultrasound asymmetric IUGR was diagnosed. Fetal weight is around 2450kg. Fluid levels are normal. No maternal systemic conditions. Is there a reason to worry about the child's health? Is a normal delivery not possible? Waiting till 40 weeks, will the growth become normal?

Waiting till 40 weeks can be detrimental
at 37 weeks since the lung maturity has been attained you need to proceed with delivery
