Just wanted to pass on some hugs and say that I do hope you get to speak to your MW asap about it, they really shouldn't leave women with questions when they are told they have a condition etc I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this without proper care and explanation, sending very big hugs and I hope all is made much much clearer for you very soon

Hi Hun

Yes i was diagnosed with this at 26 weeks was measuring 33 weeks and had a scan, they tested me for diabetes and checked everything was ok with babies tummy etc on scan, im now 36 weeks and at my midwife appointment on Monday im now only measuring 38 weeks so its caught up with itself which can sometimes happen, im sure you have nothing to worry about but like you i googled it after reading polyhydramnios in my notes and was petrified but i think its quite common especially in subsequent pregnancies this being my second.

Try to stop worrying and dont google things speak to your midwife instead x x x
