Hi, this is my first post here, having read every possible thread on NT measurements and CVS’s over the past few days! I had my 12 wk scan last week and the midwife confirmed a high NT measurement of 4.1mm. She didn’t take my bloods to carry out the combined test score, instead I was taken to side a room and told about options for the harmony test or CVS. This came as a huge shock as we had a private early scan where everything looked okay and we have stupidly already told our families we are pregnant with child no.2.
So, decided on CVS which I’m having today and I’m going armed without a list of things I wished I had asked at my original scan (is there a nose bone present, any other ‘soft markers’ etc). I’m hoping that we will get a bit of an indication from the scan today ahead of getting the initial results from the CVS on Friday. I’ve just found this whole experience completely awful and that there has been such a lack of information, which has made the process so much worse. I’ve really found reading these threads the most helpful thing in getting me through the past few days. It’s helped to prepare me if there is going to be something found through the testing, but also given me hope that everything could be okay! It still feels like a long road ahead waiting for the initial CVS results, then the full results two weeks later and then potentially a heart scan following that. But, it’s helpful to know others are going through this too and I’m not alone.
Anyone else having/ had their CVS recently and currently in the horrible waiting period?
