Hi 38f here .. my one week old baby has sacral dimple which is deep but does not have any tuft of hair . Doctor has asked us to do ultrasound which is scheduled next week . I have been researching about this online ans cane across that it is a sign of Spinal Bifidia or tethered cord syndrome or many other abnormalities.

I am anxious to about the potential diagnosis and its implications for my baby girl .

Would she need a surgery ? Does anyone has experience with this?

I had braces for one year before I got pregnant but i had to remove them temporarily for 6 months due to gum disease . Now periodontist has given me the greenlighy to get braces again . I am 7 month pregnant. I am due on 3rd october. Should i wait after delivery to put braces on should i do it now ?

Has anyone been in similar situation?
