Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Non development of a stomach bubble on repeated ultrasound scan may be suggestive of an esophageal atresia and the baby might need an early surgery to correct the malformation. Repeat scan will help in the diagnosis.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
