Brief Answer:
Nothing major to worry about.

Detailed Answer:
Okay, since the overall growth of the child is normal, do not worry much.
It is possible just that the baby may be slightly shorter, but there is no sign of any major abnormality.
If you wish, you can get a second opinion too, on the ultrasound scan, to confirm the findings.
Wishing you all the best.
