Good question! I don't know most of the answer, but in general, amniotic fluid does get replenished, like other fluids in your body. There's examples of women leaking fluid and kept on bed rest as long as the fetus doesn't seem in distress, bc even a leaking uterus is the best incubator for it to mature in.
