Beingpregnantis an exciting time in one’s life.
Butthat adventurealso comes with a lot of worries and concerns.
The ultrasound scan can also tell you how big your baby is measuring at certain points throughout your pregnancy.
Doctors will measure your baby in utero to ensure they are growing correctly.
For many families, your baby may just be small because you and your significant other are small.
Unfortunately for others, measuring small can be a worrisome sign.

Many babies who are not growing correctly in utero have what is called intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).
According toKids Health, treatment for IUGR varies on the baby and the reason for their smaller size.
