Does bronchial asthma and accute sinus in a mother relate to growth of cystic hygroma in a fetus?
i have accute bronchial asthma and sinus associated with a lot of allergies, wheezing and difficult in breathing sometimes.could it be also related to the growth of a cystic hygroma in the male fetus they recently terminated from me. From some explanations i got from the net cystic hygroma is as a result of some technical difficulties that occur in the lymphatic system(failure to connect) and i assume that bronchial asthma and sinus do have a connection and directly affect the lymphatic system.could it in a way have been passed on to the fetus and hence development of all those complications? Please can i get an answer in a simple language from someone with medical knowledge so that i can stop assuming what is right and wrong. im disturbed.

No; you have made an error here. First; Asthma and allergic sinusitis is not primarily a defect of the lymphatic system as it is of the immunologic system as a whole. But even if you had primary lymphatic disease (of whatever type and severity), that fact (to the best of my knowledge) would have no bearing on the development of a hygroma. Even if it did, there was nothing that you could have done. IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT.
Cystic hygromas are usually associated with some kind of chromosomal abnormality(Turner's, Noonans and Downs syndromes). They can also be caused by viral infections or extreme alcohol intake by the mother during pregnancy
There might be some research showing me wrong. The only way to know for sure is to speak to an M.D. who specializes in fetal development and birth defects.
