I’m not sure if I’m posting in the right subject. It’s all a little new to me writing on forums but I didn’t know how much I would come to rely on them!
I’m 14+5 weeks pregnant. I had my scan last week and screening for Ds and Edwards. I was told during the scan that the measurement for the fluid at the back of the neck was normal at 2. I then had the blood tests to accompany these.
One week later on Wednesday (30/1) I was called with the news my baby has 1:18 chance of having DS. I’m only 29, my papa was slightly below normal at 3.1. We went into hospital the next day and paid for the Iona test to be done right away!
We are left crushed and terrified. I don’t know what to do with myself whilst we wait the results! We won’t be waiting long (3-5 days) as my father in law dropped it directly off yesterday. Has anyone had a similar experience or the same odds? It’s killing me and my husband. I wouldn’t wish this wait on my worst enemy.
Thank you in advance
