Night 4 in the hospital. Tomorrow I get another ultrasound to see if my amniotic fluid went up. Im…

how did they know it was low?

They measure your fluid during ultrasounds @heatherlg88

yeah, I know they do. just thought there may be another way to tell since my OB only gives 2 ultrasounds. my last one was at 20 weeks. did u have any symptoms or anything?

No I get ultrasounds every month because my last pregnancy I went into preterm labor and had some other issues. Not sure if there are other ways they check 😕 @heatherlg88

oh. we're u not drinking much water or was there a reason why the fluid level got low? sorry I'm asking so many questions, I just haven't been doing good on drinking water the past few days & was worried.

Its okay! Dehydration can do it or if you have a leak. They arent sure why mine is low because I didnt have either problem. My dr said sometimes it can just happen. @heatherlg88

okay! thanks girl! I'm gonna start drinking more water!!

if the fluid is low the baby shows signs if distress. that'd why the do a heartbeat check every time.
