Hi ladies
This is my first time posting on any kind of forum but I’m very worried and was hoping for some support or advice from anyone in a similar situation.
This is my first pregnancy and I’m 29. I had my 12 week US on Friday, it seemed to go fine. The sonographer didn’t say much but I asked her at the end of everything was fine and she said, from what she could see, yes. I then waited to get my bloods for the combined test.
I received a call from the hospital on Monday telling me that my results were in and I had a high risk of a baby with DS. My results were Papp-a 0.34, HCG 2.7. My NT was 1.6mm which I thought was Normal. The lady on the phone couldn’t offer me much more insight other than saying my Papp-a was on the lower side.
I have been booked in with a consultant tomorrow morning to discuss things but I am just so nervous. I am a worrier at the best of times and this news has just sent me in a bit of a tailspin of emotions. If anyone has been through this or has any advice or words of wisdom I would be so grateful.
