How can I prevent a cystic hygroma?

It's difficult to prevent a cystic hygroma since the cause is unknown. Take steps to make sure your developing child is healthy by:

• Getting a genetic test in consultation with your health provider before you become pregnant to understand your risk of having a child with a genetic condition.
• Not smoking or drinking alcohol during pregnancy.
• Attending regular checkups during your pregnancy to monitor the health of your developing fetus.
• Eating a well-balanced diet and staying healthy.
