Question

The fetus has a biparietal diameter of 9.45 cm, a femur length of 7.59 cm, an amniotic fluid depth of 7.04 cm, an amniotic fluid index of 15.1 cm, and the placenta has reached grade 3. How much does the fetus weigh approximately, when should delivery be considered, and how long until a detailed examination is needed?

Answer

The placental function has reached grade 3, indicating that the placenta is mature and aging. However, the amniotic fluid condition is still acceptable. Have you exceeded your due date? According to the biparietal diameter estimate, the fetus weighs approximately 3300 grams. It is recommended to perform fetal heart monitoring. If the results of fetal heart monitoring are good, you can continue to wait but need to closely monitor the amniotic fluid condition. This is the suggestion for the question “How much does the child weigh approximately?” I hope it helps you, and wish you health!
