Hi I'm new here.
I've just had a phone call from the midwife regarding my 13 weeks scan and blood results.
They told me I am high risk for downs syndrome and said I'm 1:117 chance.
They've asked me to come in tomorrow for further blood tests and to discuss results.
I'm completely freaking out :(
I keep going through tears, calm moments of it's out of my control and then back round to panic.
All I want is a happy healthy baby and I feel bad for feeling this way when I know babies with DS can live happy lives but still I work with adults with additional needs, some with downs syndrome so I'm aware things can be a struggle.
The wait for the next blood test and then the results feel painfully long.
My NT result from scan was 1.5 so worried about what the blood results were. They said they will discuss tomorrow. I hate waiting.
Was hoping to hear some similar experiences, stories of having a high risk DS pregnancy result and the outcomes whatever they were... Thank you 💚
