Pregnant 40 weeks, abdominal circumference is larger than head circumference, what is the weight of the fetus? Can it be delivered vaginally?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, when you are 40 weeks pregnant, the fetal abdomen is relatively large, which should be a developmental feature. If there is no ascites or abnormal head development, there is no need to worry. At this stage, the baby's weight should be around 3.5 kilograms. You can try a natural birth.
