Intrauterine growth retardation; IUGR

• Currently pregnant with a feeling that the baby is not as big as it should be
• Uterine fundal height less than expected for gestational age

Prenatal examination may show that the fetus is small for the gestational age (the size of the uterus is less than the expected size for the weeks of pregnancy).

Tests for prenatal infection, congenital anomalies, or chromosomal abnormalities may be performed if IUGR is suspected.
