Low amniotic fluid at 38 weeks suggests that pregnant women can drink plenty of water, monitor fetal movement, and monitor the child’s development as appropriate.
The first thing you need to do is to check the development of the fetus through ultrasound to see if it is in line with the normal gestational week at 38 weeks, and you also need to check the depth of the amniotic fluid as well as the index on a regular basis.
Normally, you can drink more water in your life to promote metabolism and blood circulation to help the increase of amniotic fluid. In the process of drinking water, you can see how the fetus itself reacts.
Most importantly, 38 weeks is the late stage of pregnancy, the activity of the fetus is required to dynamically monitor, in addition to regular monitoring of the fetal heart, but also need to regularly count the fetal movement every day, to determine whether there is intrauterine hypoxia of the fetus occurs.
At 38 weeks, labor may occur at any time, and if the amniotic fluid declines further, the pregnancy may need to be terminated if necessary. When amniotic fluid is low at 38 weeks, it is recommended to seek medical attention.
