With DS I had to have two growth scans at around 36 and 38 weeks (bub was measuring approx two weeks "behind"). Can't recall the actual percentiles, but he was classed as "below average" in most measurements. He was born perfectly healthy between 39-40wks at 2.9kg ... he had a little jaundice in the first few days but otherwise stacked on weight at an enormous rate. At 20 months he's currently "average" in all measurements.
(This bub I'm now carrying is entirely "average" at a scan - 35w4d - conducted yesterday.)
I agree with your dr - don't worry, maybe just have a few 0000 handy after your bub is born! My DS was in 0000 for approx 6-8 weeks.
