Nothing to worry . Feed the baby 2 hrly and watch for bluish discolouration of legs, face. See to it he gains weight adequately.

Some babies will have there finding at birth, but things will get resolved in few weeks. So repeat scan after 1 1/2 months

Its a common finding in neonates. Just repeat the scan after 1 month as suggested by cardiologist. Mostly it will get resolved by itself. If baby is growing well just watch and wait.
