Too much amniotic fluid i.e. Polyhydramnios
Posted in 2014
When there is too much amniotic fluid, this is called polyhydramnios. According to the American Pregnancy Association, it occurs in 1 percent of all pregnancies.
Polyhydramnios is present when the AFI is more than 24 centimeters (cm) and the MVP measures more than 8cm.
Fetal disorders that can lead to polyhydramnios include:
- gastrointestinal disorders, including duodenal or esophageal atresia, gastroschisis, and diaphragmatic hernia
- brain or nervous system disorders, such as anencephaly or myotonic dystrophy
- achondroplasia, a bone growth disorder
- fetal heart rate problems
- infection
- Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, which is a congenital growth disorder
- fetal lung abnormalities
- hydrops fetalis, in which an abnormal level of water builds up inside multiple body areas of a fetus
- twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, where one child gets more blood flow than the other
- mismatched blood between mother and child, for example Rh incompatibility or Kell diseases
Poorly controlled maternal diabetes also increases the risk.
Too much fluid can also be produced during multiple pregnancies, when the mother is carrying more than one fetus.
Maternal symptoms can include abdominal pain and difficulty breathing due to the enlargement of the uterus.
Other complications include:
- preterm labor
- premature rupture of membranes
- placental abruption
- stillbirth
- postpartum hemorrhage
- fetal malposition
- cord prolapse
Testing for maternal diabetes may be recommended, and frequent ultrasounds will be obtained to monitor the levels of amniotic fluid in the uterus.
Mild cases of polyhydramnios typically resolve without treatment.
In more severe cases, fluid may need to be reduced with either amniocentesis or a medication called indomethacin. This reduces the amount of urine the baby produces.
Only healthy habits can avoid these complications... Follow healthy habits.
My advise
1... From the beginning I am telling that water helps to expand the uterus during pregnancy.
2... Amniotic fluid is developed in side uterus to protect and expand according to the child body.
3... Amniotic fluid consist of 98% water
4... Drink sufficient water before and after conceiving

5... Disorders of amniotic fluid
Some conditions can cause there to be more or less than the normal amounts of amniotic fluid. Oligohydramnios is when there is too little amniotic fluid.
Polyhydramnios, also referred to as hydramnios or amniotic fluid disorder, is when there is too much fluid.
6.... Control diabetes, hypertension etc..before you conceive with healthy habits.
