Fluid around head?

Ended up in triage due to reduced movements. Baby is fine but was told doctor wanted a scan booked for next week to look at fluid around babys head? What does this mean?

Maybe checking to rule out CSF/hydrocephalus. Probably just a precaution if baby is already confirmed as fine.

@Tara thank you for replying, baby is also measuring small so wondering if the two are related x

Could be. You should ask these questions to your midwife/doctor to get the facts straight from the source :)

@Tara can't seem to contact my midwife unfortunately and not sure how to contact my doctor if I'm honest, would it be by ringing antenatal?

I don't know but it couldn't hurt. Sorry, I'm not from the same country. I have a direct line to both my doctor and midwife.

@Tara no problem thank you so much for taking the time to answer though!

I'd ring the clinic you're with and ask how you can contact your midwife x I'm with a Sure Start centre for my midwife visits, I'd also ring them personally, but unsure of your situation! Just ring everyone and demand guidance x Hope it goes well and you get assurance!
