This is the first time I am posting my message but I am reading this website since last 6 months.
I am 27 years old and got pregnant in april. Last month when I was 20 weeks,I had the level 2 ultrasound and doctor told me that the baby had excessive fluids in the brain so they called me back after 4 weeks. I went there on last friday and the doctors found a couple of problems.
First he said the baby had fluids in his brain. Second he said the baby's head is 24 weeks which corresponds to my pregnancy weeks but his said his body is only of a 21 weeks fetus. I asked about the gender of the baby but he mentioned something about Ambiguous Genitiala where its hard to say if its a boy or girl.
He recommend us to get the Aminocenthesis test to rule out any chromosomal abnormalities but me and my husband are very relcutant.
I have never heard of all these things in my life and we both don't have any family history of these problems.
Last year I had the miscarriage at 7 weeks and i got pregnant again trying after 7 months. I am so depressed and don't know what to do. My doctor is going to transfer me to another hospital for high risk pregnancy but she is on vacation now.
I can't concentrate on anything and don't know what is going to happen.

Hi Sonia - I am in my 33rd week and have had my set of problems during my preg. Cant comment on what u have written but I can understand how worried n tense you mite be. Please listen to what your doc says and do what he says. Have faith in god I am sure all will be well. All the best. dolly replied. Hi Sonia,

Sorry to hear that the doc has given you information thats got you so worried.

I cant say anything about the fluid in the brain, as i know nothing about that, btas far as the body and head age correlation is concerned, you have nothing to worry about. Im in my 37th week and my baby's head and body are a week apart and i have read many other notes from girls with the same issue. My doc doesnt seem to be concerned about that at all, so i suggest you dont worry about it too uch. Just make sure your protein intake is very good. So if you eat non-veg, eat lots of eggs, chicken, and little red meat or if veg increase intake of dals and green vegetables.

Also about the ambiguous genetalia- the baby must have been in an awkward position and therefore itmuch have been dificult to conclude th esex of the child.

I hope all goes well with you. Just keep yourself elaxed as i feel that will really halp your baby also., and im sure you will do whatever it takes to ensure good health and safety for your baby.

Do write about what step you are going to take next.
