My ultrasound tech recommended bedrest and plenty of water, but she also mentioned a possible induction. .. what does all of this mean? :-??

...... Did you ask her? Cause that would have been a greaaaaaaat place to start.

It means your ultrasound tech believes she is an MD!!! Boo ultrasound tech...don't do that thats how we end up with panicking women posting mucus plug pics!  Don't panic until you talk to your OB! bedrest and water certainly won't hurt you, so if that is a route you want to take, do it. for now we know its meaning to the same degree as the guy who lived in a state park and saw a double rainbow. Best of luck!

She is average size though... Blessings, chasi.

It is Really alarming that an ultrasound tech would make any comment about anything... Please talk to your doctor!

Anything under 5 is considered low fluid. But yours is 7! Please call your doctor they will be able to give you a better idea.
