You will need to be rescanned, to monitor the amount of amniotic fluid, don't worry too much about the amniotic fluid as it naturally decreases from week 35, but you must drink plenty if water to make s ure levels stay as high as possible. Intranet growth retardation means baby is small, probably due to he lack of amniotic fluid.

You may be induced early if your levels continue to drop or baby is not gaining weight.

My friend didn't have enough amniotic fluid and they did a C-section the next day. However, they will only make that judgement once they've done another scan. Just take it one step at a time and get drinking (water). I hope all goes well. xx
