Question

I'm really worried about the results from my recent color Doppler. It showed a baby weight of 2.293 grams, AFI at 6.5, and two loops of the cord around the neck. The doctor suggested I might need a c-section because of the nuchal cord and low AFI. Is there any chance I could still have a normal delivery? And is it possible to increase the AFI by drinking around 3-4 liters of water now?

Question

I'm 25 weeks pregnant with my first baby and I'm planning to travel to Assam during my 27th or 28th week. While most of my trip from Chennai will be by air, I'll spend the last two hours on some really bad and bumpy roads. Is it safe for someone in my condition to make this trip on such roads? What precautions should I take, and what emergency signs should I be on the lookout for, given that there isn't a good medical facility nearby?

Question

I've been experiencing spotting after my periods for the past year. My doctor mentioned it might be an infection or a polyp in the uterus. Can you help me understand what's going on? I'm worried and just want to know the right reason behind this.
