Jodie - Yes Matilda has PRS as well as a chromosome deletion. Most of her complications have resulted from her PRS and we will not know if baby has this until the 18 - 20 weeks scan or possibly birth.
This test will only test for the chromosome deletion, as part of the CD baby can have a cleft/small jaw or both so it is a bit of a double wammy.
DD - just came across this thread and wanted to let you know I am thinking of you. I'm sorry you've had such a hard day and I hope that your appt this afternoon has given you some reassurance.
Well I am back from my second ultrasound. It went as I expected, they would like me to have a CVS, they offered one there and then but I said I wanted a couple of days so I am booked in on Friday for the CVS, I am really not looking forward to it as I had a horrible experience with the Amnio when I was pregnant with Matilda .
Baby was given a 1 in 2 chance of having down syndrome, Matilda was given a 1 in 3 chance when I was pregnant with her, she still has a lot of skin on her neck.
I really don't know what to think at the moment, I am just hoping that it isn't to bad, I know that I will deal with it either way and that another special baby is a blessing but it is going to be hard until we know for sure what is wrong.
Thankyou for all of your support ladies it really means alot.
