Has anyone dealt with low amniotic fluid during pregnancy? At my first ultrasound at 20 weeks they said my fluid was a little low & they’d measure it again at 32 weeks to see if it increased. Well, today I went in for my 30 week appointment and everything was fine - he’s head down, movements are great, I feel great and I’m drinking more than enough water (90-100oz/day). At my next appointment I’ll be 32 weeks & they’ll do the ultrasound to check the fluid level again. I asked what to expect if it’s low since normally they’ll just have you increase your fluid intake but since I’m already drinking more than enough they said if it’s moderately low they’ll look at inducing me and I’ll deliver early or worst case scenario if it’s severely low they’ll have to hospitalize me. REALLY praying that the fluid level is back up to normal but has anyone else experienced this? What was your outcome? TIA!

@shariedebord, hopefully it turns out ok! I remember reading that sometimes your fluid fluctuates. And it was not fun or easy lol but I did it cause I was so scared. I have always drank 1 gallon a day so I didn't think it would be a big deal to drink a second one but it was so hard. Sometimes I'd only finish half but I would eat celery or watermelon or anything that contains a lot of water.

I’m glad everything turned out ok. My urine is extremely pale yellow so I know I’m well hydrated and I’m peeing CONSTANTLY. I guess we’ll just have to see what the ultrasound looks like in two weeks. How on earth did you drink 2 gallons a day?! 😳

I have. My fluid was actually really low. I believe I was 36/38 weeks and my son had not yet turned head down. (He stayed breech) but anyway my doctor sent me to the hospital and there they gave me tons of water. My fluid was fine and they sent me back home. They recommended I drink 2 gallons of water a day.
