Maybe her belly will go down and they probably want to run some tests to make sure its nothing serious. When I went for my 3 months scan, I was told my baby had an abnormal flow in his vein inside his heart. They recommended I see a cardiologist when I was five months. Everything came back normal. I'm sure it's nothing serious. I'll keep u and ur daughter in my prayers. Please keep me posted.

At our mid-pregnancy ultrasound, our little one's head measured smaller than the rest of him (about week behind). We had a repeat ultrasound about 6 weeks later, and all was fine, but boy, was it stressful waiting to re-check! We had a very experienced tech for our repeat and she said it was common to have small head measures for the position he was in at the time. I don't know if reading that helps but hopefully, your case will be similar!

It could be a number of things but you have to keep in mind that U/S photos can be hard to read if it's not a good picture, so don't worry unless you have to!! Good luck hun!
