My friend had low fluid and they ended up delivering her early since keeping a baby in when there is low fluid can cause some problems.

it could mean the babies kidney's are working properly, or there is a blockage.  Or could be a low fluid intake from you, or you have a leak.  

But your so far along, that you may deliver early.  Hopefully it'll be better by Saturday!
