Extra amniotic fluid?

My doctor said I have extra amniotic fluid around the baby and I can go into early labor. Has anyone else had this? Did you go into labor early? They have me going to the hospital to do stress tests twice a week starting next week. I'm not sure what a stress test is or what to expect. Has anyone been through this?

Stress tests are aimply to monitor your babys heartbeat and check for your blood pressure, to make sure you aren't showing signs of needing to be induced or getting a c-section.
