What Causes Slow Growth Of Baby Compared To Early Scan Result?
Hi Doc, I am 29 weeks& 4 days pregnant now, I had my Antenatal Scan yesterday and the femur lenght of my babys is only 27w&6 days w/c is 3% only. During my anomaly scan at 21 weeks. the FL is fine w/c is 21 weeks & 4 days. Wondering why now it growth slows? Is this mean that my baby FL is Abnormal, CAn this be a cause of DS? please advise

Take care and all the best
