Loula -hope your little girl is perfect, and like you said lots of people function perfectly with only one kidney anyway, must be worrying though xx hugs xxx

Working tonight, wonder how that will go with my SPD -I was in pain for 2 days after Saturdays shift At least night shift shouldn't be AS hectic (I hope) xxx

 

[loulabump]

Thanks for the thoughts girls, I feel a bit better this morning now I've slept on it and had time to digest the situation. I think the worst part is the wait now, not knowing for sure if there is actually anything to worry about until Friday is torture. I am thinking positive and wishing the next two days away!

Loula I remember a friend who was pregnant last year and to KD her baby had cysts on her brain. Cue one scared and upset Momma and then at the next ultrasound.....they were gone. Hoping for the same outcome for you and the baby....they love putting Preggos under stress

I slowed down yesterday at work so I'm feeling a lot better. No more 'I need to bend over' pains. I'm such a fast paced individual yesterday I was at work and chanting to myself 'slow down, slow down'. I saw this thing on Pinterest I love. "It's not called waddling, it's called pregnancy swag".

LOL is it this one?

 

[Nikkilewis14]

So i was looking at the notes from my 16 week scan and it says "no fingers seen".... Does that mean they just didnt see them? Or were they absent? They never mentioned anything to me! I had a 20 week scan already and nothing was mentioned either....i guess they were too tiny? I hope?

 

[donnarobinson]

In my hospital they don't count fingers I don't think. Some do. Mine could and I could be lying lol.

But I'm sure they just wasn't seen after all uve had ur 20 week scan and all was fine x

Hi loulabump my little boy has a multicystic kidney which was discovered at his 20 week scan. I honestly know everything there is to know about the condition as I am sure like you my partner and I had a mini breakdown after the scan but please dont. My little boy is 2 and a little rip you would never question if he is healthy or not. He did have to have a few tests after he was born to check kidney function and to see if he had reflux on his healthy kidney. I will happily answer any questions as if your hospital was anything like ours they got it confused with polycystic ovaries which is completely different xxxx

 

[Bexter81]

Sorry that should of said polycystic kidney lol. Oh and sam just gets a scan once a year and his healthy kidney has grown large and his other kidney is shrinking which sounds awful but if you could see my healthy happy little boy I promise you its not as scary as you would think xx

 

[loulabump]

Hi Bexter, you have no idea how happy it makes me to see someone else on here with the same condition! Although she hasn't been officially diagnosed with anything as of yet all I have to go on is what was printed off from my scan with is "Multicystic right kidney, no other abnormalities detected"

The only thing that has me confused and scared right now is the second scan that has been booked for Friday - the doctor says it is to check for cysts anywhere else but I thought that if there were anymore it would have been seen on the first scan? She was very thorough but I am now worried something could have been missed. It's a very scary time as you know yourself and I'm so glad you had a great outcome, I only hope mine will be the same xxx

 

[Bexter81]

I was you 2 years ago we had to go to hospital 2 confirm what the sonographer had found. And the dr did say that most defects rectify themselves before the baby was born but the specialist confirmed it was defo multicystic at 30 weeks. So worst case scenario and she does have a multi cystic kidney then chances are it wont be as bad as you think its going to be. Xx

 

[loulabump]

How often did they scan you after 20 weeks if you don't mind my asking? I have a lot of appointments anyway due to my hyperthyroidism so I'm wondering if I should just pack my stuff now and move into the hospital hehe xxx

 

[Bexter81]

Probably 3 times after the 20 week scan. I had a couple more at the end but thats because I went over and nothing to do with his kidney. He also had to have a scan a few days after he was born xx

 

[donnarobinson]
