Hi all, just after any similar experiences or a hand hold really.
I got the dreaded call from the midwife today and am high risk for Down's (1 in 110) and Edwards/Pataus (1 in 130). It has really knocked me as I never actually considered those possibilities. We had already talked and Down's is not a big deal for us but would rather be prepared so we can start planning. With the other two I don't think I am not so sure
We are going to pay for the IONA test first to try and get a better answer and then if still high risk probably have amniocentesis. I'm just really devastated that this pregnancy has been crap so far and doesn't show any sign of getting better
Sorry for a long and depressing post. Please give me your honest thoughts and experiences if you have them.
