Hi everyone this is my first time posting as I’m slightly worried and looking for any advice ? I am currently 36 weeks pregnant , due to be induced at 38 weeks. I’ve had severe polyhydramnious (extra fluid) since 29 weeks. I’ve had several fetal medicine ultrasounds and also an mri , I now have to have my baby in a specialised children’s hospital incase she is born with tof or oa ( where the swallowing tubes don’t connect to stomach) they haven’t confirmed this as it has to be done after baby is here where they can put a tube down her throat to check for a blockage. This is my 4th baby, never had any previous complications and was wondering if anyone else had this during there pregnancy? And was everything okay in the end? Or if not what was the outcome ? I’m extremely worried and can’t enjoy my last weeks of pregnancy due to the worry…. Any advice or anything would be highly appreciated! Thank you 🙏
