Low fluid and sex
posted 13th Mar
Is it safe to have sex when your fluid is low? I had a ultrasound yesterday and my fluid was a little low I go in for another ultrasound next week to see if my fluids have went up but I completely forgot to ask weather or not sex was safe. They didn't tell me I was restricted to anything and they also never told me any ways to make it go back up.

I think if they didn't mention it sec would be fine. And drink lots and lots of water , no carbonation, no caffeine.

Are you leaking or is it just low?
If you are leaking fluid then they will tell you no intercourse because of risk of infection.

No I haven't been leaking just low. And yeah I've read to drink lots of water that's all I've drank since I found out yesterday that it was low .

I was told complete bed and pelvic rest when I was diagnosed with low fluid, but for me the levels were dangerously low.

Yeah mine weren't dangerously low, they were just a little over low. I'm hoping they go back up by my next ultrasound I don't want her early she's on 3 lbs and so many oz that'd be a small baby!

My fluid was just above a 6 and I wasn't put on any restrictions. I had a lot of sex.

I can't remember how much mine was I think it was at 10% but I have to go in once a week to be monitored and get a ultrasound also. Yeah lol I haven't had sex since my appointment cause I haven't been 100% sure but I guess I'm fine.
