I thought that most people had 2 kidneys too so isn't it just normal and nothing to worry about?

I'm pretty sure most people have two kidneys so I wouldn't worry about it x

The doctor said just one and if the baby ends up losing one not to worry about it, cause he said that would be blocking his bladder or something like that

2 kidneys is normal, we all supposed to have 2 kidneys. My friends baby has only one and that's not good, because if you end up losing one kidney you can live with the other one just fine but if you have only one kidney and get sick that's bad. U should not worry the baby is perfect with 2 kidneys maybe u didn't understand what Doctor told you, call him back and ask again but don't worry and good luck

I think you should call your doctors and ask them as I think it may be something different that he said and he said it in a way that you didn't fully understand as your supposed to have two kidneys and I'm not to sure how you could lose one unless they remove it x
