What to do if the fetus is too small during late pregnancy examination1

  During late pregnancy checkups, many pregnant women may be informed that the fetus is too small, which can still make them very uneasy and particularly worried about whether there are any abnormalities in fetal development. Late pregnancy examination revealed that the fetus was smaller, which is actually quite common. Because in late pregnancy, the size of the fetus is mainly calculated through ultrasound examination.

  If the size of the fetus is detected by ultrasound, it is usually the actual time of fetal development. This is different from the pregnancy time calculated through menstruation itself. But this difference is within two weeks, which means it is less than two weeks. This is a normal fluctuation, and pregnant women don't need to worry too much.

  In late pregnancy, pregnant women must pay attention to consuming more nutrients, especially vitamins and protein. Of course, calorie intake needs to be slightly controlled. At this time, the pregnant woman's own weight cannot increase too quickly, otherwise it is not very good. If there is diabetes, it will also affect the growth of the fetus.
