Baby may be developing asymmetric growth retardation which means the liver size is not rising as per the date. This happens in the 7/8 th months, but is usually not indicative of serious problem, if overall weight, head and limb size are up to the mark. Quantity of liquor and doppler study if normal, not much worry.
