Im currently 32 weeks and have spent the past 2 weeks in hospital with complication due to polyhydramnios (excess amnio fluid) and an irritable uterus.

I had another scan this afternoon which showed my fluid levels have stablised (AFI - 32cm) but what I was shocked to see was the rapid growth with the baby. Last fortnight he weight a little over 1600gram and today a whopping 2450grams.

I can't speak to my OB til the morning and google is really not helping my anxiety about what may be causing this rapid growth. Like a third of its total weight has been gained in 14 days surely that is not normal.

I have had GD screen which was fine 7.1 from memory. Maybe I should ask to be retested to rule out the reason behind this growth.

What a combination 3 x the normal amnion fluid + 95 percentile baby. How can my body carry that weight to term. I already have a fundal height of 44cm.

Anyone have any advice about what may be happening or what may cause this rapid growth. TIA
