Hello, Im just posting this and I feel so alone and have nobody to talk to that can relate to how I’m feeling right now.
I am 12 weeks and 4 days pregnant with my 2nd child. I went for my first scan at 11+6 weeks where I had the screening test done and sonography this found an increased NT measurement of 5.3mm. I was then sent for another scan with a consultant the following day where she explained to me there is a 1 in 3 chance of my baby having a chromosome abnormality. Today I received my blood test results via phone call from the hospital and they have now told me I am low risk for Down syndrome and high risk for Edwards and Patau. I am completely terrified I am 22 and didn’t even expect anything like this to happen. I just wondered if anybody had similar experiences they could share as right now I am completely confused and scared. I am booked in for an amniocentesis on the 25th and don’t know what to expect with that. Any replies would really help.
