In fact, you can have a very nice weather in a high pressure zone, with clear sunny sky and little wind, but during daytime, the pressure drops a little to climb up again during the night. That is a normal diurnal variation of pressure; when it is hot, air rises and pressure drops a bit. It is not the drop in itself but the rate of fall that is the most important point and that's why some people have barographs that register the pressure over time. An old seafarer's rule is that a pressure fall of ten millibars (today, called hecto-Pascal) in eight hours is a certain sign of a gale force wind coming in. And that is the only thing that is 100 percent certain in meteorology; a pressure fall must be followed by a wind of air trying to fill again the lower pressure.
Overview. 1  Babies can develop enlarged kidneys -- a condition known as hydronephrosis -- while still in the womb, or after birth. This condition is the most frequently discovered problem revealed by ultrasound examinations of babies in the womb.
Pregnant women tend to have a higher calcium intake, but their kidneys do not handle the calcium as well as they did prior to pregnancy. Kidney stones are still rare during pregnancy, however, affecting only 1 in 1,500 pregnancies.tones in the urinary tract in children are usually due to genetic factors. Most of the time, the cause is too much calcium in the urine (hypercalciuria). Deformities in the urinary tract pose a significant risk for kidney stones in children.
