Large head measurement at ultrasound. is that water head?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

One possibility: It is possible. Sonography would show dilated ventricles if that were the case.

I had my 16 weeks ultrasound yesterday. Today I noticed the ultrasound looked like the baby was blowing a huge bubble attached to its mouth (probably as big as the babies head). The only ultrasound I found that looked like it showed a teratoma?
