   Sorry I can't help you with this, except to say, stay off Google, there is way too much scaremongering info on there. Wait til you see your MW. All the best!

   As others have said, stay off google. Can do more harm than good. (Been there, ended up naming it the terrornet)

   I got this at the end of my pregnancy, week 36 from memory. End result was that they were monitoring bubs a lot closer and I was taking it very easy. There was talk of bringing baby out early but this didn't happen and we had a healthy bubs at 40 weeks. Hope all goes well for you too.

   Thanks Milipidi, i spent Tuesday at the hospital and had a 1.5 hour long scan, and was checked heaps, have a follow up appt this week and then will go from there, they have talked about taking him out early so we shall see. They said up to a 10cm pocket of fluid is normal, im sitting at 14cm so far.
