Low fluid better than no fluid.
They will send you for a detailed scan to see if babys organs have developed as they should.

I had very low amniotic fluid in my last pregnancy,and when i did go into labour at 39weeks i did have low fluid.I drank loads of water and i do think that helped,so i would just drink as much as you can and rest.
