Fetal Pyelectasis (Pelviectasis)

One of the most important things that I've learned while being pregnant, is who you choose to be your Doctor. We have had quite a roller coaster ride with the amount of Doctors that we have visited. We have finally made our decision and are very pleased with our choice. After a week of waiting to hear about the ultrasound, we were given some answers. It appears that there might be fluid in "one" kidney but considering the fetus is so tiny this may not even be a concern. Even if there is something going on with one kidney, at least it's not in both. This then would raise a red flag. Just to be certain about everything, our doctor has requested that we have a second ultrasound around 32 weeks. This way we can make sure the size or the issue is no longer there. This sort of thing is said to happen in about 59% of cases within in the 20 week ultrasound. Most issues resolve themselves by the 32nd. If by chance there is still some fluid, then the fetus will be monitored closely to make sure it is not life threatening. Everything else checked out normal. So, all in all our exam came back very strong and the little one is doing well. Thanks for everyone's support through this time.
