Answer: Hello dear, your level is very high. common causes of excess amniotic fluid include gestational diabetes, fetal anomalies with disturbed fetal swallowing of amniotic fluid, fetal infections and other, rarer causes. You can't do anything only doctor can guide you better. Follow doctor's instructions.. You must avoid sugar and sweet food and fruit like banana.
In some cases, a drug might be prescribed to reduce the amount of urine the baby passes. If you have severe polyhydramnios, you may need some of the amniotic fluid to be drained off to reduce the risk of premature labour or problems with the placenta.

Question: Hi dr! Im 31 weeks pregnant. AFI is 11.6 cm. Is it normal? Efw s 1.75kg
Answer: Hi!
Amniotic Fluid Index or AFI is considered to be normal at 8-18.
Medium AFI level is approximately 14 from week 20-35.
After that it keeps reducing and prepare for birth however if its 11.6 its avg please listen to what you are doctor has to say on this and as per as the fetal weight is concerned it is less than normal because in 36 weeks of pregnancy it should be 2.6 kg please have a healthy diet lots of fruits, veggies, milk, curd, cheese, legumes, pulses, sprouts, soybean, peas and beans, chicken, fish, eggs, carrot, sweet potato, nuts, whole grain cereal etc.
Have plenty of water and take rest..
Discuss with the Doctor if he wants to prescribe any supplements for the weight gain of the baby.
