Mummato2: My DS2 was diagnosed at our 22 week ultrasound (I was having them every 2 weeks with the twins) that one of his kidneys collection areas was enlarged and it was monitored at every ultrasound. When he was born he has an ultrasound and has had numerous blood tests and scans to monitor the blockage he has to see if it is going to correct itself as he grows or if he will need surgery to have a stent inserted.
So for us it is a genetic disposition that he has - not just standard infections - that is why we have to be extra vigilant as if he gets an infection that spreads to his good kidney then he can be in serious trouble.
