Worried

[Faithjatau]

I have too much fluid in 38 weeks of pregnancy. Should I be worried?

What do you mean..?too much fluid?

They measure it during ultrasound and there can be too little too... but as we know: the ultrasound can sometimes be wrong. Like baby measurements- some women told they'll have huge baby and had c-section and get only 7lb5oz babies... or other way round.

I think you need to discuss with you doctor or midwife. Sometimes extra fluid means nothing sometimes it can be linked to medical problems, so you should get a professional opinion

Yes I agree you should speak to your midwife and have another scan for a second opinion. What's does it mean to have too much fluid though is it a good thing or not..? It's the first I've heard of. Good luck with it I hope everything goes well! But they should explain things to you so you know where you stand.
