What causes a baby to stop growing in the womb?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

The most common cause is a problem in the placenta (the tissue that carries food and blood to the baby). Birth defects and genetic disorders can cause IUGR. If the mother has an infection, high blood pressure, is smoking, or drinking too much alcohol or abusing drugs, her baby might have IUGR.

I've had foreplay with my partner, and my periods have been irregular for the last 6 months. My hemoglobin level is 9, and I took a pregnancy test, but it came back negative. Could I still be pregnant, or is there something else I should be worried about?
