Low amniotic fluid? 1st tri!
My first OBGYN appointment was a couple weeks ago, so I was 8w2d I think. I was sweating badly from anxiety to know if everything was ok (I did <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>, and my fertility doc kept worrying me about my hCG levels, then the heartbeat). My doc took her first ultrasound pic and seemed pleased. I was on antibiotics for a UTI at the time. The heartbeat was great at 195 bpm. I keep looking at the pic, though, and there's so little amniotic fluid... My ultrasound two weeks prior at the fertility clinic showed a ton of fluid. Since I was sweating at the time, should I not worry? I looked up low amniotic fluid and have scared myself. I have been leaking, but it has an odor, so I assumed it's discharge or urine. Having low fluid this early (10w4d now) could mean birth defects, like with the kidneys... I was born with a kidney turned the wrong way... I really could use reassurance! I want to think my doc would have said something if she was concerned! Otherwise I am not small for the gestation period and have probably put on too much weight already. Should I check with my doc anyway?
