Hi, thanks for writing..
There are many reasons for the amniotic fluid o be low.. take res to left lateral position,drink plenty or oral fluids, take protein rich diet.. If the amniotic fluid is very low like AFI 6 cm it would be better to deliver now.. Keep a check on the baby movements.. If AFI is 9 or above, spontaneous onset of pain can be waited.. Hope I have answered your query.. good day..
