Help - lump in babies skull 19 week US

[meegm]

I had a call from Doctor to say they need to do a repeat scan as they have found a small lump in the babies skull

The brain looks normal and she said its probably nothing ( do they just say that so you don?t worry )

But they want to hve another look to double check?

Needless to say I am worried sick and an emotionally destroyed right now?

I have to wait until Friday for the scan then Monday for the results

I want to hear from anyone who has had this diagnosis and what the outcome was ? GOOD OR BAD

I don't know anything about lumps in skulls, but, I just wanted to say, it would be possible for you to get the results on the same day as your scan. I would call my Dr and tell them how worried i was and s/he could organise to have the results on the same day and then give you a call.
GL, i hope it is all fine.

This is the problem with scans these days, they see too much and then have to tell us. I am sorry for what you're going through, I haven't had the exact experience, but we did have a problem with our scan and they "had" to tell us even though the same thing would never have been detected in the years before. I was worried sick like you, they told me on the friday and said book in for an u/s next week. I ended up being on the phone to different Dr's all weekend, and finally one rang me and said "it's really a very minor problem, they shouldn't have scared you, but they have to tell you".
I hope the outcome is fine for you, I just wanted you to know that they pick up so much more on the 20 week scans these days, and often it is not a major problem. Can you ring and insist on speaking to someone about this? Don't let them put you off, talk to someone who knows about these things. I hope you can relax soon.
Take care xooxox

I recently went through 2 weeks of worry due to something that showed in a scan which was normal when I went for the next scan. Sometimes I think scans create uneccessary worry in mums to be. Hopefully all will be well when they check it again. With mine the sonographer told me on the day that all was OK (don't think she was supposed to) but at least I didn't have to wait all weekend for the result.

Best of luck for a good result.
