A member asked:
Is a fundal height measurement needed after a growth scan? my doctor said no (28w2d pregnant). also, can dehydration cause low amniotic fluid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kind of: Fundal height is a poor way to measure growth. I do it on everyone but if u are getting us they doesn't really matter. Yes dehydration can cause low fluid.
