Brief Answer:
No need to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I have reviewed the ultrasound report.
The AC is definitely less, however it is not significantly less to get worried.
At this point, proper high protein diet, adequate rest and plenty of fluids will help the fetus to grow adequately.
If these steps are not taken, then fetus can develop intrauterine growth restriction.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
