i went to the doctors yesterday and he said the baby has a very good heart and the weight is on point, but the amniotic fluid is a little on the high side...he said i have to lay off the sweets and juices....and he scheduled my glucose test for next week which i am not looking forward to =( but oh well..anyways...does anyone have any advice on the amniotic fluid situation??

i never knew high amniotic fluid was a bad thing, just means u might havea bigger belly carrying around the extra fluid, i think my friend has alot of amniotic fluid her belly looks huge for only 16 wks and she had an ultrasound at 5 wks and only one is in there. glucose test sucks hopefully u only have to do the one hr one, here they only do the 3 hr and it sucks.

i had too much amniotic fluid when i was pregnant with my son my dr just told me your belly can only get so big before it tells you its time for labor and that could be too early .



but i dont belive that. i was twice as big with twins and i had no signs of labor

i'm sorry if this is totally wrong because i'm not that sure, but i thought a lot of fluid meant a risk of cord prolapse?? anyone else know about that?
