shameful face
I think I said hi on thread #1 then life with a crazy almost 11 month old took over!!
Lake
33
Edd was 4/3 now 9/3
Dc #3 #1 was stillborn Aug 14 at 40+10 and #2 is 11 months on sunday
So far things have been stressful!! went for 12 week scan at 11+4 and was pushed back by 5 days so at only 10+6 baby was 1mm too small for theme to do the measurements. Got the actual 12 week scan on Wednesday when I'll be 13+6 by the new dates which are hopefully right as apparently if they measure more than 14+2 the can't do all the measurements they need to.
My booking bloods showed some abnormal antibodies so after 6 more blood tests they've found that I have C antibodies. The only formal communication I've had is a letter from the hospital saying they'll monitor levels 4 weekly till 28 weeks then fortnightly after. I also got a letter from the national transfusion service that says I have C antibodies in my blood. I've done some research and it seems that the baby is at a risk of getting foetal anaemia specifically haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn. We are hoping to get a consultant appointment as from my frantic googling it would seem there is no treatment if my levels rise other than delivering the baby or giving the foetus a blood transfusion!
The hospital requested DH provide some blood so hopefully we will hear soon, if not we have a consultant appointment in October anyway because of our obstetric history!!
Sorry for such a long essay off to catch up now!!
