36 weeks pregnant, does the length of the femur 62mm have any effect?
am 36 weeks pregnant with my first child. I went for a check-up and the results showed that my biparietal diameter was 89mm, my weight was 2.7kg, and my femur length was 62mm. Before that, I went for a check-up at 34 weeks and my weight was 2.4kg and my femur length was also 62mm. The doctor said that my femur length was short compared to my gestational age. Today, at 36 weeks, it is still only 62mm, which makes me very worried. No one in my family is short, I am 1m67 tall, and my baby's father is 1m78 tall. So, doctor, can you tell me if a 36-week pregnancy with a femur length of 62mm has any effect?
