Anyone with Polyhydramnios experience?

[Nia18]

I had a growth scan yesterday at 28 weeks which showed my baby is on the 95th percentile and my Amniotic fluid is 26.5. The baby's stomach is measuring big too.

My last 2 babies were on the 10th percentile with my youngest being born at 30 weeks due to preeclampsia, so I'm very surprised that this baby is measuring so big.

The sonographer told me very little else and I didnt realise how serious it could be until I came home and (stupidly) googled it.
I have a GD test tomorrow and another growth scan booked for 4 weeks time.

I feel exhausted from worrying. All the way through this pregnancy I've been worried about getting preeclampsia again, now I'm concerned about my baby having a birth defect or being unwell as well as possibly having GD. I'm also at high risk of blood clots because I use a wheelchair full time.

I havent been monitored for preeclampsia at all yet and now I feel like I'm being left in the dark by leaving it another 4 weeks before I have another scan.

I'm going out of my mind with the constant worry!

Yes - at 21 weeks I was diagnosed with Polyhydramnios (a few years ago now). I had the GD test - steel up your bladder!! Had a lot of extra scans and a big 10lb+ baby but everything was absolutely fine.

If you have a search on here you’ll find lots of similar stories. I remember how it felt to be constantly googling, try to step away and do anything else. Hope all goes well for you x

I had polyhydramnios with my 2nd, 3rd and one of our twins. It didn't cause any issues and was put down to big babies for me.
Their main concern for us was cord prolapse with the singletons as they were natural deliveries but that didn't happen.

I had polyhydramnios, only diagnosed at 30 weeks when I had to move hospitals. I had the GD test and that was negative. I was also told baby was going to be 10.5lbs+
Baby weighed 8.5lbs when born and they said the excess fluid may well have been the cause for the inaccurate weight prediction.
Excess fluid also meant that baby was never engaged and was practicing all sorts of acrobatics. It did also meant I had a much higher chance of cord prolapse so I had to be induced at 39 weeks but ended up with a section as pessaries and drip didn't do a thing.
It all worked out absolutely fine so try and not worry...it's not always as bad as Google would have you think!

I had it with first, Def did affect the measurements. I went early - 35 weeks and I do wonder if it was the pressure of the fluid - my waters went 23 hours before contractions started
