Some full term babies are born with heart murmurs. I was born with a murmur and it closed up. Just wait and see and pray for the best.

my partners nan had it and my partner aswell , they never needed anything , it closed up by itself and never had a problem with it.im assuming it might be inherited ?

my son has a murmer too, his is caused by a small hole in his heart called a vsd. He is 3 now and it is still there, but it is so small that it doesn't need treatment. his heart dr. says that sometimes the smallest holes make the biggest noise.
