At my 20 week anatomy scan they told me that they saw excess fluid on my babys brain... I'm trying to stay positive because maybe they were wrong. My baby was so active at the ultrasound they couldn't get all of the measurements. I'm going back for another u/s on the 28. Please pray for my baby to be healthy we already have one Child with leukoensepelopathy with is worse the cerabal palsey. I'm trying to stay positive. I just want to cry All the time.

Try not to worry my sisters first little boy had excess fluid on the brain.  When he was born they found out it was because he had just a small amount of missing brain matter.  I know that sounds horrible and I'm not trying to scare you.  I'm telling you because he had absolute no problems.  He is a happy healthy 7 year old with no learning problems at all.  Hang in there some times things sound horrible but turn out just fine.

I'm so sorry.  I know that worry, but try to stay positive.  I had to have another scan of the brain too.  The baby was just a stinker and moving so much they couldn't get a reading.   I pray that is all that it is. It sounds like your plate is full.  Keep us posted
