So I had my u/s this afternoon. I was totally freaking out the whole time. Thank god my mom and mil were there (dh was on his way from work). Anyway, yesterday her fluid level was 12 which is below normal. I think they consider 15 normal, today it was 16!!!! I'm so happy our little girl is holding on. We could even see her bladder which was full. She's peeing and keeping the levels up. They said she's about 1lb 13oz, yesterday they said 2lbs 2oz. I know it can be +/- 10%, but those are REALLY good weights for her age. I'm still not having any contractions and my cervix remains closed. All of these prayers are working, I can't thank you ladies enough for the support!
I don't know much about the background on this, I am fairly new to this board, but I had low fluid starting at 25 weeks. Mine was down to 5 AFI at one point and they were afraid I'd have to deliver at 27 weeks. They never did find out what was causing my low fluid because I didn't have a rupture and the amniocentesis came back fine. I ended up having 4 amnioinfusions. They are relatively new procedures, much like an amniocentesis only they put fluid in instead of taking it out. It helped get us to 34 weeks and 4 lbs 9 oz. I hope you're able to hold on another long while. GL!
