AFI levles???

Hi girls. I posted this in the "We're Pregnant" forum, where it belongs, but you ladies that have been through pregnancy are always so helpful as well. Quick little update:

Way back when, my quad-screen results came back positive for Downs. I saw a peri. all summer and she kept a close eye on Lily to rule out Downs. All is well w/ Lily-bug...Thank GOD! So, apparently the other reason for that quad screen result is possible placeta problems that will arise in the last 5-6 weeks. Starting last week I have appts EVERY Mon. and Thurs. for an u/s (AFI) and NST. Today my AFI level was 9.8. The tech said that most dr like to see it above 10, and that if it gets too low they will go ahead and take Lily. I am now worried that when I go back on Thursday my levels will be even lower. Does anyone have any experience w/ this or insight? Thanks!!

Ugh...goofed on the spelling! LEVELS not LEVLES!
