Most cases of congenital hearing loss are genetically determined. Therefore, if you or your partner has a family history of congenital hearing loss, there is a chance that your baby could also develop this condition. If congenital deafness is a concern in your family, you may wish to speak with a genetic counsellor to determine your risks and options. Congenital hearing loss can also be caused by certain infections during pregnancy, such as rubella or toxoplasmosis. </p> <h2>Outer ear malformations</h2> <p>These are common, usually minor but sometimes severe abnormalities of the outer ear. Outer ear abnormalities can include shallow depressions or bumps called skin tags in or around the outer ear. Most chromosomal abnormalities have ear malformations as one of their features. </p>https://assets.aboutkidshealth.ca/AKHAssets/ear_problems_babies.jpgEar problemsFalse
