Thisstudyaimedtomeasuretheamnioticfluidindex(AFI)duringpregnancy specifically at the third trimester, as an indicator of the amniotic fluidvolume and its significant importance in saving the fetal life and during thenormal pregnancy. The study was done at many hospitals in Khartoum state by high qualitysonographic machine to enable estimating the fetal gestational age in correlationwith the amniotic fluidindex, in a sample size of seventy cases, their agesranged between 20–29years,mostofthemweremultigravida. Theresultscomparedwiththegestationalagemeasuredbydifferentbiometrics (BPD, FL & HL), and showed that most of the cases have AFI withinthe normalrange (5–24 cc), also it didnot show any difference from thepreviousstudies.
