Does anybody no if I can have to much fluid around my baby I am 34 weeks and the midwifes are saying that they are going to induce me at 36-37 weeks but my fluid has increased from 10.5cm to 13.89cm in 4 days and I am worried that they will induce me earlier??

Aw sorry to hear about this stressful time in your pregnancy? Are you having regular scans and check ups ? They will probably induce you by 36 weeks if fluid is increasing! Hope your ok xx

I assume you went to hospital if your waters broke? If not make sure you call your midwife... good luck for everything
