Sonographer diagnosed holopresencephaly

[Hope26]

Hi all.

Last Wednesday I got given the worst news of my life. This is my first pregnancy and they detected NT at over 3.5mm. The ultrasound scan at 13weeks 5 days showed the baby had a flat face, couldn't see nose. They told me the baby will not survive and it looks worse than Down syndrome. I have been asked to come in the next two weeks for an amnio test to confirm what is going on. Anyone experienced the same thing? Any advice will be very helpful. I am so confused right now and have lost my appetite completely. Thanks

Wow, I’m so happy to hear how many of you cried and felt my pain wnd happiness when I went through my mc and had my two lovely children. Daughter just started nursery and son, well I just gobble him up every single day. Whenever I look at him, I remember my first, and I also named him what I named my first. Just had to be done. My first will never be replaced, but his name will always be on my lips through my son.

He was a surprise as well, we didn’t find out the gender. When he got delivered, came into my arms, I cried my heart out. Cried and cried, wouldn’t stop. Can’t describe the love I felt.

Thank you all for your kind words and may you all be blessed with your bundles of joy xxx
