Hi all. On Monday we had our NT scan (11 weeks + 4). We were advised that there was a nucal thickness of 3.5mm and possible cystic hygroma = a possibility of Turners Syndrome or Downs syndrome. The blood screening results have not yet returned but they felt a possible 1:30 chance. We were mortified as we have a perfect 13 month old beautiful daughter already, the pregnancy so far has been great and i?m only 31 years old... so we never imagined anything could be wrong! They arranged for a CVS which i had yesterday. It wasn?t as painful as i thought it would be! The team were great but the consultant gave us even worse news... he thinks there is more chance that the baby has either Trisomy 13 or 18. We were totally devistated! The first results hopefully will arrive Monday but as you can imagine i?m going out of my mind waiting and hoping for a normal result.
Has anyone had this scare, but a good outcome?
Thank you
