Just looking for a bit of hope really, I’m 15+3 weeks pregnant and went for an amniocentesis yesterday, whilst being scanned the consultant pointed out that the baby has cysts on its brain and also clenched fists - both of these are common indicators for trisomy 18 - Edwards syndrome. I know it’s probably a far reach but I need hope and just want to know if anybody has had the same thing and the baby not have Edwards syndrome. I’m trying to convince myself all will be okk as I am only 22 and never experienced anything like this before please if anybody has had the same thing I’d appreciate hearing about it.
