A member asked:

My wife is in 36th week of pregnancy. afi last week was 16-18, this time still measured (by another doc) at 18. is this normal? what should we do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Amnionic Fluid Index: this is a measurement of the fluid by ultrasound. Normal is between 5-25 cm. the American College of OB and GYN uses the deepest vertical pocket of fluid of less than 2 cm as abnormal. Based on the measurements you gave, the Amnionic Fluid Index is within the normal range.
