There isn't anything you can do. I have extra fluid and my doctor said there was nothing I can do to help lower it or anything they don't know why it is

Lay down feet elavated and double your water intake maybe? My fluid was low at 33 weeks so thats what i was instructed to do but im on bedrest and have been forever but they kept saying double my water intake i hope all is well but with my 1st i was induced and had a wonderful labor good luck
