Doctor, let me ask you something: I am 36 weeks and 4 days pregnant, but for the past 2 weeks, the doctor has performed an ultrasound and measured my amniotic fluid index at 65. The ultrasound doctor concluded that I have alarming oligohydramnios. But I looked at the amniotic fluid index chart at week 37 and it said 6-18, so I can rest assured.

The rate of malformations detected for the first time at the 3rd trimester ultrasound is 1/200 of pregnancy. Therefore, super-diagnosis of fetal abnormalities at 35-37 weeks is extremely important.
