We had a phone call this afternoon to confirm a positive test result (99% probability of downs).

I called my NHS midwife & she said she'd pass a msg to the screening midwife, who'll call me prob tomorrow or Weds. We have our NHS 12 week scan on Weds.

We think we want to have this baby, but I'm scared & don't know how to start to get my head around it all.
We've got 2 dc, ds is 10, dd is 8. Both v excited about having a new sib. We haven't told them about the test results yet.

I'm 13+4. Our baby is a girl :)

Currently waiting on CVS result from a 1:5 chance your post has really made me smile and settle my nerves a little bit about the possible result. Your daughter is gorgeous and thank you so much for having this post for people like me to find
