Another SUA bub here. I googled and freaked out, but was later told that most of the anomalies associated with SUA are eliminated as possibilities at the 12 week scan - before they even know there is a SUA.

We had repeat scans at 24 and 32 weeks as it can be a marker for heart issues as well as kidney issues. Bub will likely have a scan of their kidneys shortly after birth - but I'm told that's usually just a precaution and rarely do they actually find issues.

My boy was also a 36 week premmie, and while they don't know the cause it's unlikely to be from the SUA.

When you say doctor - do you mean GP as part of shared care or OB? I'd be EXTREMELY disturbed if an OB didn't know what it means but if it was a GP it is a bit more reasonable... But I don't understand why you wouldn't have been referred on to someone who DOES know in that case.
