Hi,

Fluid around fetal heart to some extent can be labelled as a normal phenomenon in heart development but it needs to be excluded to be due to some chromosomal anomaly. From that point of view please follow instructions of your doctor. He will scrutinize and advise you for your own best.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
