Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
An increase in the amniotic fluid is worrisome only if it is interfering with the fetal growth. A mild rise in liquor volume is not worrisome. Just take adequate rest to avoid a premature labor pains.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
