Total newbie here Had my 12 week scan today and things don’t look great for the little one. I’m 38 and this is my first pregnancy. The sonographer was very cold, I know that’s their job but she certainly made it clear my baby is not in great shape. The NT measurement was 9.4mm, which I know is very high. The fluid is all around the baby but it’s heartbeat was strong. She also said the intestines didn’t look like they’d moved inside the body. I had a follow up with a lovely midwife straight after who took my bloods to test for the different trisomies. I’m booked in for a CVS at Birmingham Women’s on Monday. I just feel so sad. This pregnancy wasn’t planned but seemed like such a gift. No I’m so worried it’s going to be unviable and we will have to terminate. Has anyone gone through this and had a good outcome? TIA
