Hi! I just went to my 20 week anatomy scan and they said my babygirl looks and seems totally healthy with very low risk of any chromosomal defects but during the scan they saw a EIF in her brain and CPC in her heart and want me to go to a specialist for another ultrasound to get better details. I am currently freaking out internally and want to know if any other mothers have dealt with this and if it’s true they do go away after time. Feel free to chat me!

I know it’s absolutely impossible not to worry but EIF is extremely common and seen in so many completely healthy pregnancies and doesn’t affect how the heart works. And with CPC more than 90% of them disappear by the time you get to 28 weeks and doesn’t affect brain function. If your baby is low risk of chromosomal defects I would definitely be reassured lovely especially as usually at 20 weeks they would see major physical anomalies with anything like Trisomy 18 etc. Hope this helps, I know how concerning it is when anything is found on scans xx
