What Does My Ultrasound Test Report Indicate?

Posted on Fri, 1 Apr 2016

Question: Hi. I just got out of genetic testing and had blood work done and unltrasound with sonographer. I am 28, and my husband is 38. Neither with any health concerns. After she reviewed the measurements, the baby's bladder measured 7.9 mm instead of the 7 mm it is supposed to. Is this something that I should be considerably worried about or is there still room for measurement error (especially since sonographer did them), and if correct, is 7.9 a low enough number above the normal that it will correct itself?

Brief Answer:
Need some details.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.

Before giving any opinions, I would request you to upload the scan report if possible.
Did they comment on the kidneys?
What was the status of amniotic fluid volume?

Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
Not much significant at this stage.

Detailed Answer:
Hi again.
Sorry for late response.

I have seen the report thoroughly.

I do not feel this finding is much significant at this stage.
An anomaly scan in 2nd trimester and tripple test between 15-18 weeks of pregnancy would help to confirm the risk of malformations.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
