Suggested NST on 23rd October My doc said i v to undergo c- section delivery since nuchal cord and low AFI. By any chance  can i go for normal delivery? ?? Can i increase AFI by drinking 3-4 ltr water now???

Hi dear, Nuchal cord is very common so dont panic. Its your doctors choice on the best circumstances to choose a c-section or a normal delivery. It is better to follow their advice, as they are the one closely monitoring you.
