Last week I went for my 20week scan where I was told that my baby was showing Signs of a mild echogenic bowel, which could mean a number of things like infection, cystic fibrosis or chromosome abnormalities Down syndrome being the main one. The consultant isnt overally worried as it's mild, but my daughter has digeorge syndrome a deletion in the chromosomes that wasn't picked up on the scans she was the 1% who slipped through the net and wasn't diagnosed until 18months old, she is a very mild case though. I'm currently debating having a amnio test done but will do anything to avoid it. I just want to know if anyone else has had an echogenic bowel with no other symptoms and what was your outcome?
