Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern for having less amniotic fluid than normal.
Don't be worried as the doctor has prescribed and advised it rightly. Kindly take them for the prescribed period.
If the amniotic fluid is less, your baby growth will be retarded and hence you need to take care about it.
L-Arginine will help to overcome this. Also drink plenty of fluids, fruit juice and tender coconut to keep yourself well hydrated as dehydration is one of the cause for decreased amniotic fluid level.
You can practice meditation and be active physically like go for walk in the morning and evening, which will improve placental circulation.
Check once again by scan during 30 - 32 weeks and look for the improvements.
At any point of time, if there is decreased fetal movements, you need to seek medical help immediately.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best.
