Has anyone suffered with polyhydramnios during pregnancy?

I am a little worried, I am 31 weeks pregnant. I have another check up scan - not until 3rd July to check after they first found I had too much fluid. I don't have diabetes (I have been tested) The scan showed my baby is perfect size for his age. I dearly want to have a natural birth but I am quite big (around my stomach) than normal that is how the midwife spotted the problem - can anyone give me some advice from their own experiences with this condition?

On a previous scan (about week 28) my AFI was in the 95th-97th percentile at 23.5 the very high end of normal apparently. It had been slowly arcing that way for several scans in a row. I was tested for gestational diabetes too and it was negative. I did some reading up on it and didn’t find anything too disconcerting.. I had a scan yesterday (32 weeks) and my fluid levels are now well within the normal range. It looks like it can change.. xx
