akchick...is that "water on the brain"?

Stacy, where is the fluid that they've found? is it in the center of the brain, or on the top layer?

Yes, Sarah. that is the lay term for it.


k. I knew the med term sounded familiar. I just wasn't completely sure.

I hope that this is what's wrong with Stacy's baby. As it can be corrected, like you said.

It is certainly better than other things out there, that's for sure. sometimes kids still have some learning difficulties, but there is medical help available. I hope she can get through this with the best possible outcome!

we went for a scan with the consultant again a few weeks ago who def confirmed that again the fluid on the brain had risen and at this time all he could do was confirm that something would be wrong with him. he couldnt tell us if we d get him home staright away or not he said it would depend on lots of things like breathing etc.

on several occasions in the last month he s suggested termination which grately upset me, i was like im 30 weeks thats crazy we wouldnt even consider it

im back again in 4 weeks for another scan, this has been the worst pregnancy ever everything is so uncertain and they keep telling us that they cant tell the severity of his problems till hes here


what bugs me are we are both healthy and we planned this baby Rolling Eyes

i'm really sorry stacy!!

Wish there was something that i could say or do to make you feel better but i realise that that would be impossible.

I really hope that you dont recieve anymore bad news.

Stacy, I am glad you posted again, I have been wondering how you were geting on. I can't imagine the tension you must be having right now. I know you will love your baby no matter what! My thoughts are with you. Let's hope for a smooth delivery!

i see the consultant again in 3 weeks so i might find out if i can have the baby at my local hospital or if ill have to go to a big hospital... i have also been advised that water pool may not be allowed for pain relief because there is a problem with the baby. im hoping ill go before the 3 weeks Laughing
