    That's weird, DD never had a scan after birth...

    If you are still concerned then take your report and get a 2nd opinion. If only to ease your mind. *hug*

    Thanks again everyone.

    It was just a GP, he is a great doctor but I can't expect him to know everything. I am going through the midwife program at Sunshine Hospital - they just couldn't fit me in for a 20 week u/s so I went privately. I've got an appt with my midwife on Tuesday morning, so I will talk to her about it then. Obviously there is nothing I can do about it at the moment, but hearing that other people have been through it without major complications does help.

    DD1 had this, i'm pretty sure it got picked up at the 20 week scan,and was told that 1 kidney was a bit smaller than the other.Had quite a few u/s following after that.At 30 weeks she had slowed right down with growing and had c-section at 35 weeks.She was born 5p 5oz
    I am surprised that yr doc doesn't know about it and hopefully someone at the hospital follows it up for you
