I had my 20week scan a month ago which has finally lead to a range of problems tht face my baby.
There is a 60% chance of moderate-severe learning disability and would need life long care, there is also quite a high chance of autisum sepctrum disorders and a high chance of epilepsy. they have given me the option to end the pregnancy. My main concern is how we would cope plus is have other children who i have to consider if we had a disabled child. We are gutted and over half way through the pregnancy :( Am at a total loss as what to do and how to come to a decision.
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated and if anyone has been through similar experiece then what factors helped you to come to your decision weather it was to continue or end the pregnancy.
