A member asked:
I worry about amniotic fluid embolism. i know placenta abruption is likely cause in vaginal birth. what are the chances of placenta abruption during labor in a healthy pregnancy with no placenta abnormalities& no history of placenta abruption ?

Lightning: You are more likely to get hit by lightening than suffering from amniotic fluid embolism. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
