I’m about 35 weeks.. today I found out that I have extra amniotic fluids. Online it just gave another horrible list of side effects and I’m freaking out.. I know it said it only occurs in about 1% of pregnancies so I was hoping maybe someone could fill me in or something.. idk lol

My sil had that. The baby kept turning constantly when she got closer to her due date. She elected for a c section in the end. No other issues

That’s good to hear.. I’m not sure what’s going on yet, my next ultrasound is in a few days but I’m measuring at 38 weeks instead of 35.. keeping fingers crossed lol.. thanks for the comment😊

I had it out of the blue all of a sudden too much fluid around baby. I had a scan two weeks later to check on it and it had gone back to normal. Try not to worry, I know it's hard as the 2 week wait was hard for us and don't ever Google anything, Dr Google is the devil! Hope everything turns out just fine for you x

I had this. I was measuring very big and it was because of the extra fluid. They said I would have a huge baby but he was 7lb 13 so not huge at all. I had to be induced in the end (due to my age) and when they broke my waters it was spectacular my husband said - so much water! Baby is fine and I am fine. I read loads about it and worried it would mean something was wrong but I think it was one of those things. Hope all is ok with you and baby. Take care xx
