Gallery for Pictures of Children/Babies with Hydrocephalus
One of the most common searches that lead people to this website
is "pictures of babies with hydrocephalus" or some variation on that
idea. The truth of the matter is that when the doctor starts describing
big heads and such with a pregnant Mom or
Dad, it's hard to understand just what this might mean for how
your child may look when they are born or later in life. I know I did this very
search myself and mostly what I found were pictures from the 1920's
of untreated hydrocephalus that do not really reflect what is likely
to happen since shunts were invented in the 1960's. So, to give you a
better picture of what these kiddos really look like over time, I would
love to present the following beautiful/handsome children whose Mommy's
have been kind enough to share their pictures:
