AB  - Weight  at  delivery  once  was  considered  evidence  of  prematurity  (birthweight  4500  g).  These  criteria  later  were  revised  upon  the  realization  that  birthweight  can  be  reflective  of  other  pathologic  processes  aside  from  prematurity.  Abnormalities  in  fetal  growth  at  each  end  of  the  spectrum—both  large  for  gestational  age  fetuses  and  fetuses  with  suspected  intrauterine  growth  restriction—are  associated  with  an  increased  risk  of  adverse  perinatal  outcome.  Normative  standards  applying  to  such  ultrasound  parameters  as  estimated  fetal  weight,  abdominal  circumference,  and  head  circumference  (HC)  were  developed.
