If you had a lot of fluid in PG- Were you given an antibody test ?
My fluid is high, but the baby is also very big...
They said they always check 3 things w/ high fluid..
GD- which I don't have (checked 2x)
Parvo Virus- She said I am immune
and the Antibody test (which she said my sono looks great so they are confident it will come back negative, but are doing it as a precaution and most likely its just because I have such big babies)
Just wondering if anyone ever had to have this done, I din;t ask too many questions because she said it was rare..
Thanks

I think it's fairly common. The test to see if you have any current antibodies/infection which could be causing high amount of fluid

No I wasn't tested for any of that and had high amniotic fluid. Or do you just mean swelling fluid?

No, high amniotic fluid...I had a ton with DD as well, but was not tested for it...Difference being is that DD was born 9-13 and this baby was already 10 lbs at the 36 week visit (estimated ofcourse)
Sono tech told me that the OB needed to wear rain gear with this one
