Thanks for trusting healthcare magic
What your ultrasound results show is that the fluid(amniotic fluid) is less than the amount which is expected to be at that age of the pregnancy. in medical terms we call that oligohydramnios.
Also there's an aspect of what we call intra-uterine growth retardation (when you say the weight of the baby is smaller than expected). This could be as a result of Oligohydramnios.
The plus here is you are already at 34-35weeks and towards term so the Dr tries to mature the lungs of the baby while observing and would have counseled you for an elective Caesarian section if needed.
