Inlarged Liver In Unborn Child Posted: 02-12-07 18:58pm
My wife had an ultrasound about a week ago
today the dr notified her that the baby
has an inlarged liver. She is almost 6
months preg. Can someone please tell me
what all this means. They are sending her
for another ultrasound aswell as a high
risk Dr.? Why?

There are many medical reasons for a
possible enlarged liver. I don't even
know if a doctor can sort through the
reasons "why".
The regular doctor probably didn't even
want to speculate.
I think if we even try to guess, it's
walking on dangerous ground because this
is a question for a highly trained
specialist. I am so glad you guys are
going to a high risk doctor. I currently
see one and the ultrasounds are wondering.
The specialist is highly trained in
situations like you are experiencing and
will be able to tell you more. I know
this answer doesn't help ease your anxiety
of "not knowing" at the moment. It may
turn out to be nothing, you never know. I
am impressed that your doctor was able to
determine what he or she did. Kuddos to
that doctor and also kuddos that he or she
referred you guys to a specialist.
