My son has Russell-Silver Syndrome....It has NOTHING to do with the amount of fluid around the baby. It is a form a Primordial Dwarfism, meaning, that the baby was conceived that way. It is definitely something genetic, but it's exact genetic cause or marker is not yet known.
Russell Silver Syndrome is generally attributed to genetic factors rather than lack of fluid around the baby (oligohydramnios). However, complications during pregnancy, such as restricted intrauterine growth due to reduced amniotic fluid, can contribute to the development of the syndrome in some cases. It is important to consult a healthcare provider for accurate diagnosis and management.
