Baby smaller than gestational period

Just got back from the doctor and she told me that baby is on smaller side compared to my first pregnancy and in general. I am 36 weeks now but measuring at 33 weeks. I have a AMC scan next week and if baby is still small I'll have to be induced right after 😔 Any other mummies go thru this? Baby measuring smaller than gestational period?

I had IUGR for my #2. at 36wk, my baby was only measuring 32wk. I induced two days after the scan. Best decision ever. My baby was doing so much better at birth. Managed to take in feeds.

mine - 37 weeks , baby weigh 3.2kg. doc mentioned baby is on bigger side and may need to induce at week 38 or 39. kinda similar situation. any suggestions on induction?
