| Summary: | We present a case of female neonate born vaginally at 40 weeks of gestation with birth weight 2425 grams, head circumference 34.5 cm, length 49.5 cm, low birth weight and small for gestational age. Antenatal level II ultrasonogram report for congenital anomalies in baby was not available but the antenatal period was otherwise uneventful. Labor progressed normally and the baby had unassisted perinatal transition with normal Apgar score at birth. On examination, there was deficiency of abdominal wall musculature bilaterally giving it a wrinkled and dried prune like appearance. |
