Many of you may have seen my previous posts of getting bad news at scans then got told things weren't as bad at the last scan. Had another scan today where more things were seen. Not looking good and looks like i will need a termination. Devastasted isnt even close to what i am feeling right now. My partner was working away and is now on his way home so we can go back into hospital tomorrow and see the consultant

I am so sorry.
I have been where you are at 20 weeks with Edwards syndrome not picked up earlier.
It's completely shit.

Thank you. Just annoys me that at the last scan 2 weeks ago they told us she was going to be ok just 2 minor complications and now her organs look like they are in the wrong place when they looked ok the last time?

I'm so so sorry to hear what you're going through. I had to have a tfmr in October last year and I still remember every heartbreaking moment of it all. I clearly remember being at the point you are at now. Have you reached out to ARC? I found them an incredible source of support as they have an online forum with women who are sadly in the same position as you are right now. Your hospital should also give you details of how you can access counselling if you feel this is something you would benefit from.

I can't offer any other words of comfort because there aren't any right now but am thinking of you x
