Hole in baby's heart

[ecwaler]

My 20 week ultrasound showed a tiny hole in my baby's heart. I go back in two weeks for another ultrasound to see if it's closed up but now I'm really nervous because I made the mistake of googling this condition. Has anyone else experienced this with their unborn child?

I know a family whose first child was born with a slight hole in her heart. They were able to do surgery and she has had no heart problems since!! She's in first grade now!!
You and your little one is in my prayers! If you want a good read, check out Matthew 6:25. :)

This runs in my family. In 4/5 cases in my family the hole either closed before birth or shortly after. Google is a scary place. Listen to your doctor's advice and always get a second opinion if something doesn't sit well with you.

hole in heart is very dangerous for kids.......
i remember how my cousin is suffering with this.. her heart beat is vibrate like mobile....
she can not run fast.. nd lots of compicatoins also come in her daily routine.
cost of heart transplant is so high even we can not afford that.

My friends son they thought had one and it turned out not actually being one

They found one in my 1st born at 20 weeks went back in around 23 weeks and it was smaller. Dr said it would close up. She's 9 and healthy now

Yeah, DON'T GOOGLE!! My little brother was born with a hole in his heart. He's now a very healthy, 28 year old man. His hole closed up as a toddler. He never had any issues from it, either. Don't worry yourself, it's more common than you think.

My daughter was born with one and she just turned a year old and it's now gone so don't freak out and don't google it will make it worse when there's no need to
