Hey everyone,

I did have a thread, but it was lost.

For those who didn't read that thread, I'm 18 and currently 22 weeks pregnant with my first baby. After my 20 week scan we got told that our baby has Gastroschisis and that his bowel is outside his (or her) body.
I've been referred to the Royal Women's Melbourne where the baby will be born and will require surgery to put his bowel back inside his tummy.
I've got an appointment for Tuesday, which is pretty scary. I'll be having a scan, and consultation with the doctor, meeting with the pediatrician and surgeon, and getting some information about Gastroschisis.

I'm really chasing some support, if anyone has personal experiences with Gastroschisis.
My partner and I are really lost and aren't sure what to expect or what to do.
Its really hard and quite terrifying.

Any comments are appreciated.
Thanks!
