Ostium secundum in 4 month old baby

Question

Asked for Male, 3 Years

My baby girl 4 month old 6.6 kg wt was detected with murmur in heart beat . Echo shows ostium secundum 8*10 mm asd with thickened leaflet and pulmonary stenosis moderate gradient (45-48mmhg). Can her asd fill itself without surgical intervention? How long can we wait ? Is she in immediate danger? Please suggest . I have heard that most of the asd resolves as the child grows. Will my child's case also resolve in itself? Please help. We are worried a lot. Residing in gujrat, surat.
