The literature concerning neonatal aspects of babies who have failed to thrive in the intrauterine environment is intermingled with data on babies who are SGA. This latter concept, which may be defined as having a birthweight below the 10th or 3rd percentile of birthweight for gestational age, was designed for postnatal use to define an at-risk group at a time when antenatal fetal assessment was inad¬equate, but has value because of the ease of definition. Following improvements in our ability to define antenatal growth, it is clear that the concept of the “SGA baby” is different from the baby identified to have restricted intrauterine growth. In the former category, babies with IUGR are mixed with appropriately small babies (from primarily genetic causes) or those with congenital malformations or infections. Furthermore, some babies who have restricted growth may not be small for gestational age when defined by the 10th percentile, having been potentially large babies whose growth potential has been impaired, but not sufficiently to bring them below the arbitrarily chosen centile.
