i had polyhydramnios with my first child, and i had to be hospitalised for a week before i was booked in for a ceasar. because my daughter could not engage due to the amount of amniotic fluid, there was a risk that my waters would burst suddenly, causing the umbilical cord to be flushed out and then my daughter could drop down and engage on it thus cutting off her own oxygen supply. as it turned out. my waters did not break so dramatically, but with a trickle the night before my ceasar was booked in. she still had not enagaged so the doctors still went ahead with the ceasar anyhow. i was lucky as it turned out because there seemed to be no reason for the polyhydamnios. i am due with my second child in six weeks and have to have an ultrasound tomorrow to double check that the condition has'nt reocurred.

i had polyhydramnios with my first child almost a year back, because of my son had a diaphragmatic hernia. doctors suspected a pre mature delivery or a water breakage. but nothing as such happened, and the doctors went ahead with the c-section after i completed my full term 40th week of conception. i gave birth to a completely grown, healthy baby boy weighing more than 3.5 kilos. but because of the diaphragmatic hernia his lungs didn't get enough space to breath on his own. after a fight for survival for 28 hours, he succumbed. i am planning to go ahead with my second pregnancy.

i have polyhydramnios. as of today the believed cause is that my baby has esophageal atresia (esophagus is not connected to her stomach). i have also heard of people having polyhydramnios if there is a bowel obstruction. my baby is not able to swallow amniotic fluid, but her kidneys still produce urine, so i am still getting more fluid. this condition also puts me at risk for preterm labor and i have been on bedrest since week 27. our goal is 34 wks. the baby needs to be as big and strong as possible so that she can have surgery to repair her esophagus.
