Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

Hello and Welcome!

If you are unfamiliar with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia it is when (inside of the womb) the diaphragm does not form properly. The abdominal organs move up into the chest cavity, compromising the heart and lungs.

This site offers parents ways to be aware of problems their child may face. There is no two cdh children alike. However many have the same issues.
