i had a similar scare wongbaby, it's awful, waiting for the results.

i had a urgent phone call from the hospital on a Friday afternoon, telling me i HAD to have an urgent amniocentsis test on Monday morning, as the NT scan showed a 1 in 6 chance of Downs.

The weekend went so slowly
I had the test - the idiot specialist, inbetween giving me a consult and actually performing the amnio, decided (without telling me) to OMIT the anesethetic. I will never forget that.

you have to wait two weeks for the test results
when i went in to get the results, the specialist was "on holidays" but no-one had told me

god that was the longest two weeks.
i felt like i was going mad, so even though it was irrational, i went shopping for cot - that sort of baby stuff - looking in the classifieds and visiting people's houses with baby stuff for sale - it kept my mind a bit occupied. i felt i HAD to do something POSITIVE about the baby.

it is SUCH a hard time, the waiting.

the amnio test came back clear. there is a chance of miscarry, just by having the test itself. i was later told, the NT result was false.

it was an enormous stress, going thru the testing.

I can understand your reluctance to tell your parents, what's going on.

I hope your baby is ok wongbaby, enormous hugs to you.
