Baby’s measurement

Hi mummies~ I am currently 38 weeks and my baby’s AC is 297mm, FL 70mm. I don’t really understand the percentile thing, is my baby very small? Should I be worried… at week 37 scan, her FL is 71mm & 2.3KG. The only thing I know is that she’s on the skinnier side as she’s only 2.5KG. TIA. #firstbaby #pleasehelp #1stimemom #advicepls #pregnancy

hello mommy. my baby was a "clinically small baby" as I was told during my 36weeks apmt. they had to do a scan to ensure baby was still growing. both my children are on the lower percentile. born at 2.5kg and 2.8kg respectively. dont worry mommy as long as they are growing and dr is not concerned it is ok. my boys have caught up with their peers in terms of percentile :)

My baby was always on the avg growth until week 37 where her weight suddenly dropped so gynae asked me to eat more, which I did and increased her weight by 200G in a week. Week 38 gynae told me to spam high calorie food but what I noticed was the length became shorter 😵‍💫
