Amniotic fluid index 8.5 at 30 weeks

2024-01-22 18:19:23
Hello, I went for my growth scan at 30 weeks 1 day .Estimated fetal weight is 1443+- 211gm. The radiologist informed me that I have AfI of 8.5 which is low for gestational age and may lead to preterm birth. She also mentioned that the weight is a little less than expected..I am a 5 feet 2 inch slim woman.Please let me know if this will lead to early delivery..My baby also has a 13 percentile abdominal circumference ..The rest of the parameters seem normal. BPD 7.6 CM HC 27.9 cm AC 24.7 CM FL 5.8 cm
