A member asked:

37 weeks pregnant, and my unborn baby is diagnosed with kidneys cysts. will my drinking a lot of water affect him?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Generally not: A fetus seldom makes much urine during the pregnancy since your kidneys are used to cleanse your shared systems. I would schedule a visit with a clinical geneticist & perinatologist to monitor your pregnancy & deliver in a hospital with advanced neonatal care services.
