I am 25 and expecting my second child. Today, my husband and I learned that our baby has gastroschisis. This news has us very concerned for the well-being of our baby.
Beyond the initial surgery our baby will undergo, I don’t know what to expect. How often should ultrasounds be performed to monitor the baby’s development? Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. Bst, Ashley

hi im natalie my lil boy was born with the conditon like you i found out at 20 weeks i had to have a scan every 2 weeks to check the progress off my son and to check the condition off the bowel
It differs for every case but I had a NST and a Ultrasound every other day for the last month and a half of my pregnancy and then it was every two weeks before that – If you don’t think that your doctor is being efficient enough just question them about it or find a second opinion – Just don’t be a mute – ask all the questions in the world – that is what I did and it made me feel very comfortable with the doctor I had chosen to over see my pregnancy.
