U/S results ; confused and very worried ; baby's kidneysFrom: Jo-Anny (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 23 Oct 2002 06:34:29 -0500 (CDT)
Hi, I had an U/S yesterday at 36 weeks as 2 weeks ago they had found some hydronephrosis on my baby boy's left kidney, and pyelactasis (sp?) on the right one.. Yesterday's detailed U/S at this different hospital as per the comments revealed ; - bilateral ureter-hydronephrosis - ap pelvis 18 mm, n.cortex,caliectasis (grade III) - thickened bladder wall I had a pretty normal pregnancy with no real complications .. Our baby's growth appears also normal.. We're really worried as she said that because it seems to be getting worse, we need to go again next week and they wouldn't suggest to let me go past 38 weeks ? And she is getting me an appointment with a pediatric urologist for more informations about this condition as she didn't think it would go away on its own .. We're also concerned about the risks of Down's Syndrome .. I'm 31 and this is my second pregnancy .. Now I have this report in my hands, I can see my ob/gyn only next wednesday , and I can't help it but cry because I don't know how critical this condition is ... It would really help me if someone could advise me in the meantime on how critical this is and how related to Down's Syndrome this is ? Thank you very much, Jo-Anny
