    still no real infomration except that it could possibly be a nerual tube defect worst case and least case a cyst or bone defect - she said its nothing she has seen that she can pin to a condition she doenst think it is tubeal defect but it is in the area that that does occur - that is why im having the scan friday so tha the radiologist or doctor who is professional in fetus and head stuff can look at it - we may need to be referred to the fetal medicine department in the Womens and childrens (adelaide)

    my antenal serum screening was very low risk so thats possibly a good thing....

    im trying to tell myself that is the least case and trying to be positive ....but its hard..

    Meegm - So sorry you are having all this worry. I hope this next u/s you are having on Friday gives better results. My little girl has a choroid plexus cyst, and has a high nuchal fold, they were worried about her having DS. After a CVS that has cleared her of having DS, they are now looking into a heart problem due to the high nuchal fold. Anyway I have my next u/s in 2weeks time, so I can relate with the worry. I hope you get to relax after Friday u/s with the rest of your pg a worry free one. I would like to say try not to worry and relax now, but I know how hard it is to do that with what you are going thru.

    oh csab i so feel for you i really do.

    i woke up today and i feel very different i dreamt shes ok - i know she is.....

    i will let you all know what they say ....

    my only hope is that there is no mental retardation as I dont think we as a family could cope with a very menatlly retarded child... i feel its not fair on the baby and not fair on our family plus we dont have the financial resources for me to stop working etc... so i hope to god she is ok and we can just get on with the pregnancy and welcome her into our family in 20 weeks time...

    Hugs right back at ya csab...
