Oligohydramnios: Low Amniotic Fluid

My wife was diagnosed with Anhydramnios or no Amniotic fluid when she was 13 weeks pregnant. Despite undergoing numerous experimental procedures including trying to afix an amniopatch, there was never a significant reaccumulation of fluid. Today we was a beautiful and healthy 3 year old boy despite what the doctors said! There is hope, I am happy to walk you through the different options that are out there and share best practices with you. Feel free to email me at rvolmer@crosbyvolmer.com and take a look at our web site that shares Sebastian's story www.godsmiracleofsebastian.com

I am really sorry to hear about your baby's condition. Though I thank you for sharing your story. I am also a mother who is currently pregnant at 26 weeks. I was diagnosed with very low amniotic fluid (3-4CM) at 23 weeks. Despited 7-8 liters of fluid I drank and the IV's I have received daily for the last two weeks, none of them had helped. I am being torn apart as I am writing this comment. I am facing a dilemma of what I am to do and what would be the right thing. Amazingly, during all this time, the baby heart rate has been normal and she is moving as expected during this stage of pregnancy. I wish there is a way to know what is the right thing to do....for the baby's best interest. God bless your family.

I wanted to share my story to let mothers to be beware. I had low fluid with my pregnancy @ 28 weeks. As the weeks went on the numbers went lower and lower. By the time i convinced my doctor to deliver my baby, i was feeling no movement at all. My baby was born and to my surprise has brain damage. I delivered at 36 weeks. Much to long for a baby to go without fluid. I believed in my doctor and listen to him. 6 years later, i wish i went with my gut feeling and insisted he deliver my baby sooner. She is in a wheelchair and does not speak. But she is here. If this went on any longer, i know she would not be with us today.
