Hi,

I understand your concerns about Amniotic fluid.

Amniotic fluid is slightly on lower side.

It is not a big worry at this stage of pregnancy. Please follow instructions I am typing below:

1) Drink more fluids like water, butter milk, juice, milk etc.

2) Get amino acid sachets like argiprime XXXXXXX twice daily with water which will help in increasing Amniotic fluid.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
