  • Is Debris in the Amniotic Fluid Dangerous?

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms Ultrasound,
    I'm 36-weeks pregnant and had an ultrasound done yesterday. The report said there was a small amount of debris in the fluid. Can this debris harm the baby?

    My mom said the baby could swallow it and choke? Is she over reacting, or do I need to be concerned?

  • What is a Prominent Ventricle?

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms Ultrasound,
    I was very perturbed at my last OB appointment. My doctor told me that the ultrasound technician said there was a prominent ventricle on my baby's 30 week ultrasound. She also said that the radiologist had not yet looked at the ultrasound and that she was still waiting for his interpretation.

    What is a prominent ventricle? Is is dangerous to my baby? What could be the side-effects of this condition?

    Please let me know. I am so worried.
