Hi,
Just basically looking for some reassurance or advice or kind words!
I had opted out for downs screening but at my 12week scan today the sonographer said because the fluid behind the baby's neck was so prominent she was under a duty to measure it and let me know. We were then taken to another room to have it explained to us and I'll be honest, the doctor didn't sound very positive! I had blood tests and will know results next week then be offered amniothesis.
I am panicking. I am 30 and have healthy 4 year old boy so had naively assumed all was going to be well and now I feel so worried that there is something seriously wrong with the baby! I just can't stop crying even though I know it is silly and we will love the baby whatever happens and I guess there's still chance it could still be better ok...Anyone have any similar stories to share and what outcome was?
