At 35 weeks means third trimester parameters of sonography may differ. As per your case as placental blood flow is good & weight of baby is good. So growth as per period of gestation is fine.

Colour Doppler if lag seen constantly.

Hi
This can be IUGR, yes babys growth is slowed down in pregnancy
But with timely delivery , baby will grow as other Healthy babies
most IUGR babies experience immediate catch-up growth after birth, with the vast majority achieving full catch-up growth by age 2 years.
