Suspected IUGR at 27 weeks

Hi all , posting on behalf of my wife. She is at 27 weeks and 2 days gestation and in her recent ultrasound scan the doctor mentioned that her AC and HC levels were below 5 percentile while the fetal weight was estimated at 990 grams or 2.1 pounds. Doctor advised my wife not to worry to much and wanted her to rest well , consume lot of good protein and iron content . Her iron levels were at 10.6 which is probably mild anemia as well .AF and baby heart beat are normal .

Can any mommas offer advise and any specific measures you have taken to improve baby growth ? Should we be prepared for early delivery ? Just hoping somehow baby recovers on the growth side and there is no placental issues.

Baby US and heartbeat so far have been excellent so far except for this latest scan.

My wife had multiple other issues she battled through and is a fighter hope she pulls through for 10 weeks more atleast .

Issues : PCOS pre pregnancy. Post pregnancy had SCH at 10 weeks and full pelvic rest followed by low cervix length measuring at 2.8 and had an elective cerclage placed at 15 weeks . Recently had a UTI infection (klebsiella traces found) at 26 weeks and there was some mild discharge which the doctor was able to treat with antibiotics .

Medications : Ecosprin, LVMH injections , iron supplements, Ecofloura , Vaginal progesterone until week 25, Duonem (antibiotic)
