my lmp is 29 feb, I have low amniotic fluid of about 5-6 ...my doctor prescribed me lungs maturity injections and she will do c section on 5th Nov...I am abit confused because I heard that premature delivery babies have lungs problem..is it fine to go for c section on 5 November
Aoa ... well u can undergo elective delivery 35 plus weeks due to low amniotic fluid however there will be risk of nursery admission of baby but on other hand 35plus weeks is not too premature ...
If you keep an eye on fetal movements, another week can be passed but even on 5th Nov, cesarean is not a bad idea. Baby may require admission in nursery
Do you have significant history of BP or diabetes, are you complaining of sluggish foetal movements

I feel no movement in my 30 weeks..I went to dr and dr said its because of low amniotic fluid which was lower than 4..It was due to high blood pressure..I am taking aldomet 2+1+2..bp is now stable of about 140/80..my lmp is 29 feb and on 6th nov 35 weeks will be finished and 36 will be started do you think it will be fine to do c section..movement is now improved and baby is also gaining weight
