Stage 1 FGR is usually monitored closely with a plan that weighs the baby's growth against the risks of an early delivery. Your umbilical artery and CPR have moved in the concerning direction, but the baby is gaining weight and the amniotic fluid and heart rate are reassuring. Waiting one more week under close monitoring is a reasonable plan when your doctor is tracking the same trend.
Next Steps
Please stay in close touch with your obstetrician between now and the next scan, and follow their exact schedule.
Health Tips
Any reduction in foetal movements, sudden pain, or bleeding needs same-day review, not next-scan review.
