So had a MW appointment a week friday ago, my belly only measuring 22weeks. So had to have a scan. Scan showed low fluid. Had Hospital OB appointment today and it went to the **** rather quickly
Apparently fluid levels are meant to be from 25-7 i think the 25 starts at 20 weeks and you normally lose numbers as baby gets bigger. So 7 would be the total bottem number for someone say 40-42weeks... Im sitting on 8
So what does this mean. Scan next monday and see how baby is holding up. Worst case Baby born then! Best case fluid stays the same,,,,they might let me go to 34-36weeks. Fluid builds up again (very rare but not out of the question) Induced at 36weeks.
So really in a sad mood. Hoping its all resolved next monday on the next scan. Will go back and see OB in the city after scan and decide what my action plan is.
Feeling rather down and thinking this all means bye bye to homebirthing this one. So unfair when i know what the perfect birth feels like
Oh that sucks arse tegam I'm really sorry to hear it.
I'll be hoping for good news come monday (or the best possible at least). Hope you hold up ok for the next week
I'm really sorry to hear it.
like mad that the fluid levels are strong on Monday so you can keep baking that precious baby as long as possible xx
