Is there anybody who has had Cryptosporidium and/or Polyhydramnios in late pregnancy?

I was told on Thurs that I have Cryptosporidium. Im am almost 37 weeks pregnant. I've been trying to find out what I can about it but doesn't seem to be much research done on this infection in pregnancy.

Found out the day before this that I have Polyhydramnios. I am really worried about this and am desperate to get induced now but along with the Cryptosporidium I really don't know what they will do.

I was at hospital yesterday and they told me there's nothing they can do for the Cryptosporidium. For the Polyhydramnios they said that its more of a problem if the womb is open (was examined and told mine was still closed). I have an appt with the consultant on Tues but tbh I am really anxious about both of these things.

There is no evidence of Cryptosporidium affecting baby but then there doesnt seem to be much research done about it.

With the Polyhydramnios, I am petrified of my waters breaking and something happening. 2 doctors at the hopsital said they would prefer that I was in hospital when my waters broke but then another said that its only really a problem if my womb is open.

Has anybody experienced any of the above and do you think there is anyway I could persuade the consultant to book me in to get induced asap? I will be 37 weeks tomorrow.

Thanks (I have posted this in both Pregnancy and Chat as I am desperate for answers)
