Lots of experience, including own second pregnancy. One week difference in
dates is neither here nor there, especially at this stage. If all screens NAD
then I wouldn't be overly concerned. Main problem would be cord presentation,
prolapse during labour, prem labour due to pressure of excess fluid, but not a
problem now she's over 37 weeks. Eight week scan properly won't tell you
anything.  Don't worry,  Maureen.

Subject: [ozmidwifery] Polyhydramnios


Does anyone have any experience with polyhydramnios in an otherwise normal
pregnancy. All the scans and blood screens have come back negative. There
are conflicting dates between 36 to 38 wks, measuring 37wks at midwives
clinic and 38 wks at GP/Obs surgery,challenge also negative. Mum has had a
previous 22wk induced abortion for severe spina bifida, but with a different
partner and has one health child with this partner. Just wondering how
common extra fluid is and how much is too much. 8 wk scan results being
chased up as taken interstate.
