serious question ladies, help me out(:

Alright ladies, so today i had my appt and i am now gonna be 38 wks on Wednesday, so you can imagine my excitement. . . However, i had another ultrasound today and it turns out that even tho babys heartbeat is perfect and shes just fine, the fluid is low, they said im at 5.5-6.9 and that the norm for a woman at 38 wks should be at 12 for the fluid. . Has anyone else experienced this and if so what happened? Were you induced due to lack of fluid for baby?

Im so scared of everything tho :( im scraed that if i get induced, i will wind up with a c-section and im scared that if we wait longer the fluid will run lower and either way it will be a c-section :( ugh, im pretty scared. . . I also found out that im already 2-3 cm dilated, which that part made me happy, means that im in the process. . . :D
