A single loop of umbilical cord around the neck is very common, seen in around 20 to 30 percent of deliveries, and most of these babies are born safely with no complications. An abdominal circumference at the 8.3 percentile is on the smaller side of average but still within the normal range for many pregnancies.
Next Steps
Please continue the growth-scan schedule your obstetrician has planned. A repeat scan in 2 to 3 weeks will confirm whether growth is tracking normally along your baby's own curve.
Health Tips
Please monitor foetal movements daily. Any reduction in movement needs a same-day review.

Single loop of cord around the neck is not a problem, it's scan finding. Nothing to worry about this. It's not indication for cesarian section.
For Fetal AC ( fetal abdominal circumference) - we have monitor fetal growth by ultrasound scan every 2 ( two) weekly for any increase in the fetal weight.
Next Steps
for to improve the fetal growth - you have to take protein Rich diet .nuts ,sprouts ( cooked) one small cup
Health Tips
monitor fetal movement daily at least ten (10) fetal movements u have to perceive.
Have atleast half an hour of moderate walking after food i.e. after breakfast, lunch , dinners
