AFI is 20 cms in 31 weeks pregnant
Hi Doctors
Hi all, I am 31 week pregnant (30yrs age). Recently undergone growth scan. Came to know amniotic fluid index of 20 cms. Is it normal or any precautions need to be taken. How to reduce it if it's more than normal ratio. Any intake of food/fluids need to be controlled?
Please suggest.

Get a GTT test done.. if it turns out to be negative then followup scan after 2 to 3weeks.
If it doesn't increase further then nothing else needs to be done.
