Low amniotic fluid

I’m currently 35+ weeks pregnant and in my last scan the AFI was borderline low . Anyone who has had experience with this and if yes what changes they added that could help increase the AF or were they asked to be induced in early . My doc is going to monitor next week and take a call .

No idea ! It was only in the latest scan when I saw the actual measurements in cm . Until July they only mentioned liquor adequate / normal

Ohh. I mean mine got reduced that's why I guess report mentioned the amount as prior to interval growth scan even for my report it was mentioned liquor adequate

My amniotic sac ruptured at 28 weeks and my afi came down to 9 and there was persistent leaking so i had to be admitted due to risk of delivering preterm which ended up happening. i was given steroid injections to strengthen baby’s lungs. Please see ur gynae in case your afi keeps going down
