Anyone with experience of polyhydramnois?

Anyone got experience or going through polyhydramnois was diagnosed at 31 weeks with it, and got to have regular growth scans to keep checking the deep vertical pocket to see what levels are. Last scan said I had 8.8cm of fluid. What happened with people with this, did they get induced or have child early.. did it get better or worse? I’m not sure on this as this is first time being diagnosed with it as didn’t have with my son or wasn’t detected.

I have got this, my waters kept going up and down, on my last scan it was 9cm but they said it's not too bad, I have another scan on Tuesday so hopefully will see how it is then x

@Jessica let me know how you get on girl? When was your last scan and how far was you? X

I will do, I was 33 weeks, I am now 35 weeks x

I had very mild polyhydramnois with my first so they induced me at 39 weeks using the pessary. They intention was to dilate me to 3cm so labour ward could break my waters while a midwife pushing on my belly to push baby down… this didn’t go to plan as after 12 hours with the pessary my waters broke naturally. Felt like a river, the water didn’t stop 😂 but baby was totally fine x

@Jennifer oh that’s good then so it stayed mild throughout xx

@Rearna yes, was picked up at 28 weeks and I had weekly scans from 34 weeks (due to something else unrelated with baby) and it didn’t get worse xx

@Jennifer that’s really good xx
