I had low fluid the last 2 months of my last pregnancy. Drink as much water as you can!! You replenishes the lost amniotic fluid. I started getting monitored twice a week to check my fluid levels and do the fetal nonstress test. I wouldnt worry too much my daughter came out perfectly. Just drink plenty of water and rest as much as possible. Did you happen to have a uti or kidney infection.? I had those all throughout my pregnancy and I think that had something to do with it.
