Question
According to your description, at 21 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal head fluid volume was 0.9 millimeters, at 29 weeks the right lateral ventricle fluid volume was 1.3 millimeters, and the left lateral ventricle fluid volume was 1.2 millimeters. At 31 weeks, the width of the right lateral ventricle was 0.8 millimeters, and the width of the left lateral ventricle was 0.6 millimeters. I would like to ask if this child can be retained? Will there be any problems with fluid accumulation in the future? What impact will this have?
Answer
Based on your description, your situation is that during pregnancy, the lateral ventricles of the fetus have temporarily widened. So far, this value has returned to the normal range. This child can be born as the current results are normal and will not affect the child’s brain development. Therefore, regular checks are needed after delivery; if the size of the lateral ventricles does not increase, there will be no problem. At the same time, attention should also be paid to diet and maintaining good physical health.
