Fetal Biometry - Report Seems To Be Abnormal

My wife is 31 weeks pregnant. She had a ultrasound scan and the report seems to be abnormal.the humerus femur length is 49mm in 31 weeks. The doctor said that the long bone are short which will affect the baby height. I would like to get an opinion from you.

You should get a second opinion on this. The femur length is fine enough and you should not worry but  get a second opinion. Once for my sister similar thing was said but later clarified and now the baby is really good.
