Hi Archie and Friends,

I read all the posts on this list regularly. I have posted a message only once though. I completed 32 weeks and am due Dec 9th. I had an Ultrasound on Monday and everything looks fine, the baby's head is down and the placenta looks good. But they said that the Aminotic Fluid is a little less. Not on the abnormal side but it is in the border line. I had a follow up Gyn appointment yesterday and she said she wants me to go and do the Non Stress Tests twice in a week and also she will check the fluid every week. I am a little worried. Is this something to really worry. Has anybody heard or faced such a situation and will the fluid level increase again, because Dr. said if fluid level keeps decreasing then it is not good for the babay. Please share all you thoughts and anything that I can do.
Raji replied. Hi MOM,

I have heard that if the fluid is less then they may put you on drips. Im not sure for how long. I think its good the doc is doing Non Stress Tests, they can judge your capacity to see it through the next few weeks I guess. Better not to worry too much. Im sure all will be fine.

Best,

I am also scheduled for one on Monday!
Just take it positively..stress will only make it worse...they will probably put u on medication....
take care and good luck!
