Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. As the Head cricumference is normql and Abdominal circumference is 33 week Femoral length is 3is lagging by 4 weeks, that means the foetus growth is not adequate, may be baby is going for FGR-FOETAL GROWTH RESTRICTION. As you are already 37 weeks, there is no need to wait, you can be induced for early delivery. hope the answer for the question.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow-ups. If you like my answers kindly rate it, and write a review as well. Please do not forget to accept it.
