I had ecs 2yrs ago and am hoping for vbac this time but sonce 27wks iv been monitored due to assymetrical iugr. My lil girl had slow growth too. So AF does stand for amniotic fluid?? I googled it and that what seems to come up.
I had low AF around 29 weeks, I was hospitalized and monitored cause it's not good to be that low. I was put on bed rest after being discharged at 30 weeks and now ever since then I've had doctors appointments, NST and ultrasounds to monitor baby and my fluid had gotten back up to 11.8, but recently was told it's starting to decrease again. I'm still being monitored at 38 weeks and my doctor has scheduled a c-section for next Thursday.
Every doctor is different and each one has their own low point for AF, but that seems quite low especially if you want to have a vaginal birth. I was told if fluid is too low it's harder to have a natural birth cause baby will be dry. Your doctor may suggest a c-section if it gets lower.
