The nurse would expect to assess a child with head larger than body.
Babies that are smaller than normal, according to the number of weeks of pregnancy (gestational age), are called small for gestational age (SGA). This can occur with children born before 37 weeks of pregnancy (premature), between 37 and 41 weeks (term), or after 42 weeks (post-term). The criteria for defining whether the baby is small for gestational age divide opinions among doctors.
Some consider a percentile (scale used to calculate the baby's weight) below 10, while others consider weight and/or length less than two standard deviations from the population mean. In certain cases, the problem can have serious consequences for the child's life.
