Adequate AFI with moving Echoes
Today I have done a scan at 37 week 1 day and the report shows Adequate AFI with moving echoes.
AFI is 13-14 cm.
I know it can be because of vernix or less chance because of meconium.
what should be my next step?
did NST as well which came normal
will my doctor suggest a c- section?
is it safe to wait till edd?

We can't predict what your Doctor will suggest. But we know one thing,
"That we have only the ultrasound findings to interpret but your Gynaecologist has the whole patient".
So your Gynaecologist's opinion will be more comprehensive.

Your ultrasound looks good.
Just be cautious and keep count of baby movements as there is a single loop of cord around baby’s neck.
You still have time, i would just wait and watch, observe for baby movements everyday and plan accordingly with your obgyn doctor.
