What should I do if my baby is smaller than expected at term?

Patient's question:

Besides the baby being due in a month, the weight measured during the color ultrasound was only 4.6 pounds. The baby is small. During the early pregnancy examination, it was found that the placenta has a contour, which is related to the baby's growth and development. What is the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you. There are three main factors contributing to a small fetus: poor nutrition in the pregnant woman, abnormally thin umbilical cord of the fetus, and excessively high blood sugar and blood pressure in the pregnant woman. I hope this is helpful to you, and wish you a happy and healthy life. The above content is the complete answer to the question "What should I do if my baby is small one month before the due date?" I hope the patient can soon be free from the troubles of the disease and recover quickly, enjoying a happy and joyful life every day.
