Mild dilatation of ventricle is often seen. If it's not increasing, in all likelihood there will be no problem. The paediatrician will do ultrasound of your baby's head after birth to evaluate it further. You will need to repeat ultrasound every 2 weeks to see if ventricle or head size is increasing abnormally
