    Hey Cazzie,

    At my 12 week scan (just one bub not two!) my baby's measurement was 6-7mm. We were given a 10% chance of being born "healthy and normal". Our DS risk was 1 in 6.

    We had CVS done, then got the results back and slowly ruled out all the possibilities until it was decided she was happy and healthy.

    She was born 100% normal and healthy and she is now a bouncing 8mth old.

    It can end well.

    Hang in there, try to stay away from Google (it is NOT your friend in a time like this) and try not to listen to people who say useless things like "I know what you're going through" (ah no you have no idea), "It'll all be ok" (ah how do you know that??) and the like.

    Talk to your partner lots. Cling together - you need each other.

    All the best. We're all here for you - PM me if you want to talk more. Let us know how you go
