I am so very sorry to hear that your baby was diagnosed with hydrocephaly. There are treatment modes just as in humans and they usually involve shunts. The surgeries are expensive and there are frequently other neurological symptoms. I had a litter of 3 born Friday night and one of those babies most definitely had hydrocephaly. I kept her alive as long as she had fight and she lived 48 hours which is usual. Her case was severe. Your baby will need to be examined and treated by a neurologist or neurosurgeon.....
