Swooshing when I bend over?

Question

Hi All, I'm 38 weeks today and for the past couple days everytime I bend over to pick something up I hear a swooshing sound coming from my belly, it sounds like bubbles in water are moving around...now I'm not an idiot and I know the baby is amniotic fluid but I just find it weird that I've never heard this noise coming from my belly before now...is this happening to anyone else?? I'm concerned that the fluid might be low or something.

In all my years of nursing I have never heard of this though it does not mean it is not possible. Call you MD or go to your delivering hospital to make sure your amniotic fluid is not low they can test for this by ultrasound.  Better safe then sorry, good luck.
