HCM

[Olive807]

Hi there! Just wondering at what age did you first take your babies for an HCM scan and consult. My Olive will be One in August, she is in good health (thank God) but I was just considering taking her for a baseline echo and I’m wondering if anyone else has done that and at what age was it.

We have taken all of our at 1 years of age for a baseline…by then their hearts should be full grown etc.

I didn't know enough to do it with my Paka and I’m sorry to this minute.

It is recommended to to their first echo scan at 1yr old for a baseline. I wish I had known with my first sphynx who passed at 7, due to kidney failure from the medications to treat her HCM.
