C Excess fluid loss through other means occurs as well.

A Oligohydramnios may be caused by a decreased in urine secretion.
B Because an abnormally small amount of amniotic fluid restricts normal lung
development, the infant may have inadequate respiratory function after birth,
when the placenta no longer performs respiratory function.
C Excessive amniotic fluid production may occur when the fetus has a central
nervous system abnormality.
D Excessive amniotic fluid production may occur when the gastrointestinal tract
prevents normal ingestion of amniotic fluid.
