Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can suggest to you, to send a copy of the scan to me, for an expert opinion. You can send it as a direct question, for further advice.
Fluid in one kidney at 29 weeks, should suggest, there may be collection of urine in one kidney, due to some cause.
It should be flowing downwards into bladder, but in some, we do come across this finding. I can give proper advice, only after seeing the scan.
Don't worry, it's treatable, if significant.
