Hi all! If you read my last post, I was concerned about making the right choice in changing practices in the middle of my pregnancy. With y’all’s reassurance, I have transferred!!

Today at 23w3d, I got an ultrasound to check on baby boys Choroid Plexus Cyst and insure that it’s shrinking some. It is!! And they remain unconcerned:) It was basically another anatomy scan- He looked perfect & kept his hands by his face the whole entire appointment; seriously so strong willed like his sister already! The sonographer sent the US photos review and since we got ZERO good profile pictures (even this one isn’t the right angle, his lips look like paper😂 and we know they are full,) they requested to try again. That time, he was hugging his cord and you couldn’t see more than his nose.

Anyways, at my small video consult with the OB who viewed his pictures, she mentioned being unsure of a possible Amniotic band right near/on his lip. She toyed with the idea of it being an ultrasound blip or weird view from his hand, and rescheduled me for another check at 28 weeks. Since it doesn’t appear that he has a cleft lip or palate from my 18w anatomy scan; everything’s kind of up in the air? It could be nothing, or it could be more serious. I’m fairly anxious since I knew about the condition through research beforehand, and know very little about orofacial amniotic bands and their impact on baby.

Have any of you had any experiences with Amniotic Bands?
