Choroid Plexus Cysts and Slightly enhanced Renal Pelvis @ 20 wks?

Choroid Plexus Cysts and Slightly enhanced Renal Pelvis @ 20 wks?

I went to the doctor today at 22 wks and they discussed the ultrasound i had 20 wks. They saw the baby has choroid plexus cyst and a slightly enhanced renal pelvis. My doctor didn't seem concerned at all and said not worry. He kept telling me that everything would be fine and everything would clear up on its own. They scheduled me for another ultra sound for 24 wks, which is 2 wks away.

Of course I came home and began to do research, and have now scared myself to death. I had the triple screening blood test done and was negative for downs. Of course I read that these two things can be sign of downs or Trisomy 18.

How can I ease my mind that everything is alright with my baby? Or if these two problems do not clear up on there own, what is the risk for my baby after he is born?

we had the CPC found on our u/s at 20wks also (as well as something w/ the heart).  we had our follow up at 24wks and the CPC was gone.  yes, it can be a soft marker for down syndrome...  but if there are not any other physical abnormalities to go along w/ it (like the hands and feet or limbs) then it should be considered an isolated CPC witch should disappear on its own.

i don't know anything about the enhancedrenal pelvis though...  i've never heard of it before.  but the CPC should go away!  let us know what they find when you go for your follow up!!!
