At 37 weeks and two days pregnant, what is the appropriate amniotic fluid index?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, a normal amniotic fluid index in the late stage of pregnancy is between 5-18. The current condition is considered normal, and there is no need to worry. You can have regular follow-up checkups. If there is a situation of excessive amniotic fluid, the possibility of malformation cannot be ruled out, and amniocentesis may be performed if necessary.
