Too much amniotic fluid.....PIOG

Bump

never heard such a thing, but i guess its possible..either that or your baby is just smaller then usual?...

I did with my last pregnancy.  I had never heard of it either.  They did induce me early, just because they said that they didn't want my water to break on its own.   That it could cause a prolapsed cord.  Meaning the cord come out first and I believe cutting off supply to baby.  They gave me my epidural  before they broke my water just in case the cord came out first and they had to rush to do a c- section.  Luckly there was no problems and she was very healthy.  They will probably just want to watch you.  How far along are you?  They didn't notice it till around 35 weeks for me. 

Do you know how much (AFI)?

I have not, but my husbands cousin had that- she didn't have any issues with it, she said it was just a lot more weight to carry around. 

I did with my 3rd pregnancy. They just monitored it with weekly non stress tests and she went full term with no problems :) good luck!

No she is weighing about 3 lbs 11 oz so far and i'm 30 weeks and that's what she's measuring.

 I was wondering if any of you ladies have experienced TOO much amniotic fluid?? I had an ultrasound done today and was told I had too much fluid.

One of my high schools friends had so much amiotic fluid they had to take her baby at 31 weeks she was measuring 45 weeks and they drew amiotic fluid every other day. she was ginormous. until then I hadn't heeard of it.
