Hello ma'am and welcome.
You first need to understand the various causes for a low measuring amniotic fluid level. They are: infections, fetal anomalies, intra-uterine growrh retardation, use of various medications, dehydration ,etc.
Your doctor is suspecting infections to be the cause, and it will certainly have to be ruled out at the earliest. There is nothing you need to do other than follow a healthy diet, youe doctor will have to do all the work in diagnosing and treating the cause. Stay well hydrated.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes
