About this deal

When the amniotic sac breaks, this is called rupture of the membranes in specialist circles. Ideally, this happens shortly before birth. However, in high-risk or multiple pregnancies, as well as for other reasons, it is conceivable that a rupture of the membranes occurs much earlier. Once the water has broken, a little fluid usually goes out. Many women think that this is urine fluid. If The Urine Is Cloudy

Having positive results from a prenatal screening test. If the results of a screening test — such as the first-trimester screen or prenatal cell-free DNA screening — show high risk or are worrisome, amniocentesis might confirm or rule out a diagnosis. Remember: Amniotic fluid will keep coming out (vs a gush of urine or a blob of discharge). That is usually the best indicator between the two. If you continue to have dry underwear it likely isn’t broken. But again — ANY questions, ask your provider. They’re used to fielding this question over the phone! They may even have an easy way for you to come get tested in the office! Genetic amniocentesis is usually done between weeks 14 and 20 of pregnancy. Amniocentesis done before week 14 of pregnancy might lead to more complications. Diagnosis of fetal infection. Occasionally, amniocentesis is used to look for infection or other illness in the baby. If you get up and feel another gush of fluid, it likely means that your water is broken. The gush happens because it collects in your vaginal vault while you’re lying down. When you get up, it comes out.

What you can expect

After detailed explanation of the study and procedure informed consent was obtained. Sterile vaginal speculum examination was done for every patient.

Remember, genetic amniocentesis is usually offered to pregnant people for whom the test results might greatly affect how they manage the pregnancy. The decision to have genetic amniocentesis is yours. Your health care provider or genetic counselor can give you information to help you decide. How you prepare

Amniocentesis might be done to drain amniotic fluid from the uterus if too much has built up — a condition called polyhydramnios. So, that’s the deal on an at home amniotic fluid test. Like I said — I guess it’s not a horrible idea to plan ahead to have at home but please talk with your doctor if that’s your plan. AND if you think you’re ruptured — it’s too late, call your doctor. Sometimes, obviously, is is contractions. But when it breaks without contractions we don’t really know what makes it break. I do have a post on signs your water might break that you might find helpful too. Are there other reasons why my amniotic fluid might be low?

Someone who has an infection — such as hepatitis C, toxoplasmosis or HIV/ AIDS— might transfer it to the baby during amniocentesis. After amniocentesis, your health care provider will continue using the ultrasound to monitor your baby's heart rate. You might have cramping or mild pelvic pain after an amniocentesis. It’s sort of easy to think that “maybe” your water being broken is not a big deal, but it really can be a big deal.
