Polyhydramnios- experience or advice

Hello ladies, just looking to hear other ladies experiences really, I've been diagnosed with polyhydramnios which has gone from mild to moderate, 32+3 and SDP 15.

Looking for a wee bit of a hand hold or some stories. My GD test came back negative, Harmony test too for all of the trisomy conditions and just wondering how/what was done differently in your pregnancy/delivery I.e normal birth, caesarian section, did they induce you earlier?

I'm a bit scared about cord problems as Dr mentioned this but didn't go into detail. She doesn't seem terribly concerned but I'm still a bit anxious!

Any advice or experiences would be gladly welcomed

When you have a drink and lay on your left side do you feel any movements? Mine weren't as pronounced but I could definitely still feel them moving and see my belly moving.

I can feel the movements when lying down on my side, I just have to be lying a certain way. When I went to an ultrasound last week the sonographer commented how active the baby was and how it must drive me mad, but I couldn't actually feel it, only see it on the screen.

If I'm lying down in bed I can feel her better, but it can get me a bit anxious sometimes!

Hi Starlive22 just wondered how everything turned out for you? Xx

@starlive22 i know it was a while back but how did the delivery go? and how is baby doing?
Sorry i ma totally new to this, my going to be father for 3rd time, and wife at 35 weeks has been told has polyhydrmnios, she seems fine but i've been googling too much and feeling very stressed. Its not because of diabetes or infection she had blood test. baby is breach also.

I am more concerned with all the reading of fetal defect such as down syndrome the various genetic disorders. I will like to hear those that had moderate levels of polyhydrmnios for no reason and how they're son or daughter are doing?
