Sometimes the reason for the baby not growing is because there is too many genetic problems wrong with the baby therefore our body realizes this & the baby stops. Your not alone in this. It happens to many women.

This happened to me alittle over a year ago. If the ovum doesn't miscarry itself you will most likely have to get a d&c. I'm so sorry for your loss.the doctors could be off on dates but if that's what they are saying than more than likely that's what it is.
