In Need of Help.
I am 21 week and My songram was yesterday. I have recieved two opinions on the baby having no amniotic fluid and no kidneys. I know this may be a silly question.
Can my baby still survive without kidneys and amniotic fluid?
Can my baby still survive without kidneys and amniotic fluid?
I can imagine how awful that news must of been to hear. I will keep you in my prayers dear but it doesnt sound good. I'm so very sorry. Like Leslie says kidneys are essential for life.
