Too rapid an increase in the uterus, the inability to feel out of the fetus, uterus prolapse previously established normal pregnancy term, blind or barely audible fetal heartbeat, nausea - all this is the first signs of polyhydramnios.
Polyhydramnios often accompanied by detachment of the placenta and bleeding. These features lead to the fact that labor can happen ahead of schedule. During childbirth themselves polyhydramnios may lead to early outpouring waters, and due to a sharp reduction in number of the fruit may simply fall out.
In the event that fall loop cord, the fetus is experiencing dyspnea, and require urgent Caesarean section. This is called choking hypoxia. Hypoxia can accompany the whole process of the emergence of polyhydramnios.
Diagnose polyhydramnios and possible fetal hypoxia helps primarily ultrasound. This type of research, combined with the above external signs reveals the degree of polyhydramnios. It is from this figure will depend on the treatment.
Therapy is conducted in two directions - reducing the amount of amniotic fluid and fetal deliverance from hypoxia. Decrease in amniotic fluid is produced by taking the drugs (antibiotics, immunoglobulin, diuretics), as well as taking vitamins and observance of proper nutrition.
Always worth a drink drugs to eliminate fetal hypoxia. As a rule, a woman with a diagnosis of "polyhydramnios" doctor may advise hospitalization, abandon which is not necessary.
At the end you must advise all expectant mothers, as closely as possible to keep track of all the set during pregnancy diagnoses. If some of them are polyhydramnios, better to go the whole complex of research, in order to prevent premature labor or other heavy for the child and mother consequences.
