he might be coming early

So i had to have an emergency ultrasound on monday because my belly was measuring two weeks smaller then it should have and it turns out i have almost no amniotic fluid yet the lowest you can have is 5 and i have 6 so i have a hospital appointment next week and they said i might have to be induced either that week.or very soon im 37+1 weeks so i am term and everything i just am a bit upset and scared seeing the one thing in labour i didnt want was to be induced and now it looks like i have no choice.

That's what happen to me at 32 weeks my fluid levels were completely at a low level so that following week they did another ultrasound and it was at the same level so he got my hopes high being that I have a high risk pregnancy they were inducing at 37 weeks but since they did that ultrasound that week after decided to do 39 weeks but this wednesday if the fluid level is still low hopefully I get induce at 37 weeks because these bh kicks my tale. But her growth level was above average she was measuring big at 32 weeks...so Idk what will happen wednesday

Sorry you have to be induced but it's the best for your baby. Everything will be fine and your doctor knows what he/she is doing. Good luck and keep us updated.
