PUT THE GOOGLE DOWN AND NO ONE GETS HURT

Seriously. If your midwife told you not to worry, then stop worrying. What can you do about it at this point anyway? Nothing. So relax, you dont have much further to go.

I swear, we need a google-annonymous up in this community. You and Anne can be the first members. :)

You're not an idiot darlin'. We all worry. perhaps more than is good for us. Hell, I think half the purpose of this community is to post when we're worried and freaking and everyone else to tell us to calm down!!! :)

Hydramnios can be caused by things OTHER than fetal abnormalities as well darlin'. I know I have to watch out for it because of the gestational diabetes. Amniotic fluid amounts also usually PEAK at 34 weeks from what I've read, you're not much past that.

BESIDES, you wrote above that she's going to order an US to SEE if it's because of more fluid. Maybe your baby just had a growth spurt. They tend to do that.

If you're gonna freak out, at least wait til AFTER the problem is confirmed, eh? :)

And once more, PUT THE GOOGLE DOWN. And if there is a problem, we'll all be here for ya. But your midwife knows what she's doing. If she's not worried, take your cue from her. :)

You need to go to Cafe Press and make these in a maternity size. I would buy this t-shirt for every pregnant woman I know!
