Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the delay in femur length growth or long bone growth is not significant.Abdominal circumference is significant as if it is less it indicates growth retardation of fetus.And persistence of uterine artery notching even after 24 weeks might be significant.If persistent there os risk of high BP.And also important is observing of fetal movements.So relax.
