Baby measuring smaller on ultra sound

Question

Hi Ladies, The birthmother of my baby is suppose to be 32wks but on ultrasound 2 wks ago baby was measuring 3wks behind and the Dr said they were keep the due date of 3/20/13 so I was wondering if this means anything like that the baby is going to be a premie or is it just baby is going to be on the smaller side also they said her water bag was bigger measuring the 32wks now so she would of been 30wks at the ultra sound. The birth mother had a baby about 10and half months ago and most of her babies weighed about 8 to 10 pounds so could this just be normal cause she just had a baby and this is her 6th baby. Any help would be great this is my first child.
