What Does "baby's Abdomen Is 2weeks Under Developed" In Ultrasound Indicate?

I am 35 weeks pregnant and the doctor just called to have me set up weekly NST's & Biophysical ultra sounds because the baby's abdomen is 2 weeks under developed. What does this mean for the baby if he is born and the abdomen is under developed? What will they have to do?
