Fetal Abdominal Size Discrepancy at 30 Weeks: What Does It Mean?

Question
My wife is 35 weeks and the doctor told us that the baby's stomatch is measuring for 30 weeks what does this mean ?

Answer
Mark,
I don't really feel like this is quite my expertise, but I don't think it necessarily mean anything just yet. Sometimes it could be the angle that the baby was in. It's possible they couldn't get a full picture of the abdominal circumference. Try not to worry too much. I would also discuss with her OB your concerns. Good luck to you!
