Too much amniotic fluid (polyhydraminos )

[mikcom]

I'm in my 36th week and my sonogram results showed that I was in the 93rd percentile when I should be around 86% for the amount of amniotic fluid at this point. Does anyone have this or have any information about this? I read about it online and its a bit scary. The most common cause is a birth defect of the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract or bladder & kidneys. I'm so worried, but my doc says I shouldn't until I get a nonstress test (its scheduled for Monday). Easier said than done. If anyone knows about this I would really appreciate any info you have.

Thanks,
Mikki

I am forwarding this on to my friend the midwife. She may have better insights on this than me.

Wow, Mikki. I never thought you could have to much AF, but we'll certainly be praying for you. Keep us posted.
