How to cope with wait for CVS results?!

SarPea93 · 09/12/2024 20:25

this is my first pregnancy and all was going amazingly until our world came crashing down at our 12 week scan. 8.5mm NT measurement. We were also told there is fluid all around the baby and their odds of being fine are very very low. It’s so hard to stay positive and I can’t help but feel completely devastated.
any advice on how to cope with the wait for the CVS results?! It’s absolute torture.

I have no tips because I was a mess but I did get my CVS at about 10am on a Monday and I was told the results by lunch time the Tuesday so it wasn’t long to wait for them. Good luck xx

Oh wow I’ve not heard of it being picked up that late. Everything was okay at 12 weeks then?

Ah that is confusing. It’s a horribly worrying time, we’re feeling sick with worry waiting for this call with our results. Hope you manage to get in for further tests soon, you feel helpless when you’re sat about waiting for the next step x
