My first delivery was cesarean because of low amniotic fluid. My first boy baby was born in 2012. Now I'm 20 weeks pregnant. Is there any chance this delivery be a vaginal birth (normal delivery)?

An AFI between 8-18 is considered normal. Median AFI level is approximately 14 from week 20 to week 35, when the amniotic fluid begins to reduce in preparation for birth. An AFI < 5-6 is considered as oligohydramnios. The exact number can vary by gestational age.

Vaginal birth after caesarean is possible but it would depend on all conditions prevailing in the 9th month.
