My SIL is pg with #1 and DH family have a strong history of kidney problems. DH lost a kidney at age 3. DH father lost his kidney and DH brother was stillborn due to the same problem called hydro nephrouses or something - no idea how to spell it. The saw a genetic counsellor before conceiving who advised for US examination specifically on the kidneys at 20wks however this wasn't done as the US trech just brushed them off so they paid for one to be done privatelt. At this one they were told to come backat 34wks for a follow up which showed further dilation of the tube and now a collection of fluid (hydronephrouses). They were told to take it to their OB but they are doing shared care and their understanding GP has left leaving them with a GP they don't like and the midwife at the hospital has just brushed them off saying there is nothing they can do until bub is born.

SIl is very nervous due to the stillbirth of DH brother suffering the same problem. does anyone have any advice as I have no experience with the public system. Thanks
