Wongbaby, you are sounding a little more upbeat today, or at least a bit more at peace with what is happening. :hug:
It took me a long time to come to terms with it, with what God had put in front of us, so well done for finding that place of acceptance.
a long weekend will come again. probably at the same time next week, I have already known my final sentence. I am so nervous now. Every day in next week must be a torture untill the final time comes.
Hope you can do something this weekend to take your mind off things.
a new week~~~~~~~~~~~
:hug:
A new day. Monday. When do you get your results?
i was just going to ask the same thing
I have no idea. If it is ten days like the doctor said the other day, then this Wednesday will be the earliest. But I am not sure. It is so hard to stay positive right now.
Wongbaby, stay strong. I know how hard it is. I know. :hug:
Where are you, work or home?
Wednesday is the day after tomorrow. That's so close. You can get through. Talk to the baby, tell it how loved it is. Talk to God, ask for His strength. Ask for peace. Ask for rest, for energy.
Hang in there.
OceanPrincess,
I am right now alone at home. I usally do some part-time work at home basis. But it has been stopped for a while ever since I found myself pregnant. I will try to start work again as soon as possible. But every time when I opened my laptop, I could not help ending up in googling, although I have almost read all the related posts.\\\\
I am so sorry you are having to go through this. Take each day as it comes and I hope you get good news soon. There are so many positive stories from incredibly strong women here on BB. Dr Google can be comforting and informative or an absolute PITA. If he isn't telling you what you need to hear, focus on the BB stories. Easier said than done I know but it may help. The support here is amazing. Big hugs to you.

Hi wongbaby,
I want to tell you about a dear friend of mine.
She was pregnant with her first child and had her NT scan. The sonographer told her that the baby looked healthy and was developing normally. She was over the moon, and so happy to see her bub on the screen.
After her blood work was done, she was given a 1 in 8 chance of DS. She was shocked, scared and very worried. Her OB suggested a CVS. She had the CVS.
After a torturous wait, she was told that her bub was developing normally! He was perfectly fine! He did not have DS.
She gave birth to her bub 4 weeks ago, and he is absolutely gorgeous and healthy.
I know that this story will not change the result of your CVS, but I wanted you to know that good outcomes can occur even with seemingly bad odds.
I hope you can find peace as you await the result :hug:
Hi girls,
I just received a call from my doctor who performed my CVS. The fast result is clear and I am having a baby boy!!!!!! The full report will be back in another week. I am overwhelmed now, having tons of emotions and feelings in my head and heart. I am not able to think properly.
I try to talk to my OB later this afternoon cause he is too busy with other patients now.
I remembered when I did the CVS, the doctor mentioned having clear CVS results is passing the first hurdle. Does this mean I am now half passing? I know it is quite uncommon for the full results differing from the fast results. But I am starting to worry again.
Awesome wongbaby!!!!!!!!!!!!! :leap:
Yay! Congrats on your baby boy!! So exciting! I'm so happy for you that the results were clear! Yay again!
that's great news!!!!!!
Oh wow!!!! I am so sorry I missed this til now!!!!
:leap: :leap:
That is fantastic news!
One hurdle at a time - but yes you are clear of the three most common chromosomal abnormalities!!!!!! :cheer:
Thanks girls!!!
With all my fingers and toes crossed for my baby son! God knows how I love him!!!
Awww baby boy, I forgot to mention that - congrats on your little blue bundle :bluecheer:
congratulations wongbaby. I clear result and a son. You must be over the moon. Enjoy the rest of your pregnancy xxx
Wow that is awesome news!!!
what a relief for you, time to start breathing again! wonderful news.
I have also had to go through the agonising 10 day waiting..... Mine were for DS and other Chromosomal deformities, those fisch results were clear and then 2 weeks later so were those results so I think you have an fantastic chance of them being clear too ;-) So happy for you!
Thank u so much girls!!! I hope everything from now on could be alright!!! Hope Hope Hope
Can not help getting worried again. So afraid that the full results may tell something different. Worried about the tests in the future~~~~~~~~~~~~
this is awesome news, i have been thinking of you, waiting for them results. if the fast results are clear for ds, then he is clear of ds, that wont change. once we were clear of ds they told us the other factors that may have caused the high risk to show up were a heart defect (low chance) or placenta problems, neither of which were an issue, i would take the cvs results as they are and say you are having a healthy baby boy. its time to enjoy this pregnancy, enough stress just enjoy. they will do plenty of us checks on him to make sure he is travelling ok. you are just another of us unlucky women who have been put through this stress for nothing. so happy for you, relax and enjoy your pregnancy hun
That's great news hun! Try and relax...it is very rare to hve something how up in the long test in the short test comes up clear.... You have beautiful healthy little baby boy growing there....try to tap into that and bond a little with him..talk to him try out some names...it might help to ease the fear and stress...thinking of you...
Thanks girls. I will try my best to relax.
I have already fall in deep love with the little fellow inside me, which I guess even my DHenvies:). But this is how mothers mean to be! When I was young, I just knew my mum loves me for no reason, but I do not understand why. Now I know, and I can not believe I am now passing this love down!
i no im a little late to this thread and i want to start of saying what a relieif to not have that wait anymore.
but i also want to say that having a Down Syndrome baby is just as rewarding.
I was 19 when i had my little boy Hayden, i had the NT scan and his was only 2.3mm (so nothing to worry about we were told) we went on another 20 something weeks loving being pregnant and preparing for our first baby i had him just on the 39week mark and then 3 days later we were told he had Down syndrome but that he was a healthy baby boy.
he has just turnt 3 and we have just had our second and he is truly the most cheekiest and loving little boy ever. he gives the most cuddly cuddles. and yes he hasnt done anot of thing other 3 year olds have but that also meant he was my baby for alot longer and when he did achieve them it was AMAZING and sooo rewarding watching all your hard work pay off.
i just wanted to share my experiance with you so that others can see that yes its not ideal but in saying that he is healthy and we wouldnt change him and he is the BEST big brother to his little sister.
Dear Hayden,
I am so touched by your story. You are such a young mum with endless courage and love. Every baby is unique and deserves love. God is fair. He gives you a special baby and makes you an outstanding mum. Both of you will be blessed with happiness.
Wongbaby
Long and lonely Sunday afternoon with lots of negative thoughts in mind! Almost broke into tears again! God! Please bless my little baby boy!
I got my full cvs report back which confirming the fish report. My baby is chromosally normal and healthy. The next hurdle lying before us is the 19 weeks' us which will focus on heart and structural defects. Fingers and toes crossed for good result! I am going to finish this thread and might open a new one in the second trimester board. Thank u so much for those read and replied with love and encouragement!
Ohhh wongbaby, fantastic news!!!!!
One step at a time :hug:
I will keep following your progress!!!
awesome news!!!
Oh that is AWESOME news!!! :hooray:
