What Are The Chances Of Getting Second Baby With Cystic Hygroma?
I was 12 weeks pregnant when I found out that my baby had cystic hygroma with ascites in the abdomen cavity. The doctor recommended that I terminate the pregnancy, which I did. I am now 8 weeks pregnant and I am sick with worry that my second baby will have the same thing. What are the chances that my second baby with alos have cystic hygroma?
I have gone through your query and i can understand your concern.
You have no reasons to worry. The chances of getting Cystic hygroma in the second baby are very rare. It happens in random in most cases. So you may not worry.
I would suggest you to take up an ultrasound again in another month, every months, till second trimester for monitoring. Just because it happened once cannot be taken as a risk factor. But there is nothing wrong in having it checked frequently. Try to relax yourself and keep worries away.
I hope i have answered your query.
