Was it just a fundel height measurement because my last two were behind by about three weeks and they did an ultrasound and she is fine right at her proper measurements she had just dropped lower in my pelvis so it was hard to get the right measurement without doing an ultrasound

I did not know what iugr is and I just checked it up. From what I read from a respectable source it might not be severe anddoes not necessarily mean baby has health problems.So far what has been observed is just small size which could be caused by different things. I wish though your doctor had immediately send you for urgent u/s, fetal monitoring or the doppler check just to establish what's causing it coz some causes can be remedied quickly and baby 's weight can be improved. We share the same due date and I have not been gaining weight that much which is a risk factor.  Keep us posted and you are in my prayers and thoughts.

I have a friend that unfortunately her bby has a real problem she told me is called body wall defect I Google it Nd it's not even funny. Its a very serious problem the way I see her suffering is not nice. I thank god I never bin thru none of that with any of my 3 bbys I have neither with this one on d way. But I feel bad for u guys that are having a hard time. All I can do for my friend is cheer her up and stay positive that her and her bby will be fine because her dctrs won't give her any hopes right now she might be giving birth already and we gotta keep our faith real strong so eve everything could come out fine. Only god knows why each and every other momma has to go thru hard situations. I will keep u in my prayers and dnt be sad stay positive hopefully everything will be fine when ur bby is born. ..

I can't really answer anything for you cause I have no diagnosis per say....but my dr has also said my baby is measuring behind and is skinny so for my next and final 3 appointments I have to have an ultrasound with each one to make sure baby is OK....as of now they say besides the weight she looks healthy so my fingers are crossed !!!!  I'm 36 1/2 weeks!!! Good luck to you and your baby
