The amniotic fluid volume is low-normal at 8 cm. We discussed this moving forward. Because of the normal growth and Doppler’s, I am reassured and perhaps this is simply low-normal AFI. However, I would recommend that you continue with at least weekly testing. I expect that the AFI will stay around the low-normal range. If, however, it drops to < 5 cm, we could use a 2 cm deepest vertical pocket for continued management while less than 37 weeks, but I would continue steroids and refer her to our office if this occurs. As long as her AFI remains above 5 cm I would continue to follow her weekly through your office. At this time, we have not scheduled her back here. She is very well aware of preeclampsia and she should continue with preeclampsia precautions. Her BP was normal today in our office and there was no protein on her dip. Certainly, if her BP’s elevate or she develops proteinuria, I would at least check preeclampsia labs. It was a please to see Chelsea, especially since I delivered her last baby. If you would like us to perform any of her future scans, please feel free to reschedule her with
