    Oh sweety, just wanted to pop in here too and give you the biggest and let you know that I am thinking of you today when you have your appointment. that your little girl is fine and as Slyder mentioned that they just didn't take into account what the CVS already found out.

    Cheryl, you don't deserve all this stress!!
    I agree with Slyder, they are just saying that the nuchal fold measurement is higher than "normal" which you already knew and they say that this can indicate abnormalities but you have already had this checked through the CVS and everything is fine. I honestly don't think there's anything to worry about with that Hopefully they will clear it up for u at ur appt.

    CSAB ~ Darlin, my heart goes out to you going through this all over again just when you thought everything was hunky dory.
    But, as you said yourself, it CAN point to trisomy 18/21, doesn't mean it WILL.
    I am in agreement with Slyder - because they have only commented on the u/s result, not in collaboration with your CVS sampling that you had done.

    I hope you get some positive knews from your Dr today, and if they don't have anything to tell you yet, that you get some reassurance at least.

    And remember, I think I said this once before.

    You love this little girl, and she loves you. You & your DH created her, and no matter what happens, you will love her regardless. You should not feel guilty about failing her, because you haven't.

    Chin up, I'll be thinking of you, and I'll make special mention of you in my prayers tonight.

    All my Love to you & your family today.

    Hey CSAB

    My little Bean also showed up with soft markers, the chloroid plexus cysts, they are actually quite common and it is purely developments in technology that has made them more visible, a few years ago, when they were finding them they were sending women off for heaps of tests, which they have since found out that most babies actually have them, they just disappear at different ages.

    My OB eplained that it can point to Trisonmy as well, but as my other results were all clear, then there was nothing to get worried about.

    I can't comment on the CVS as I never had it, but the others seem to have posted some really helpful information

    It can be a very scary time,

    Hope your results were all clear xx

    Morning everyone,

    Thanks everyone for all the kind words etc. I guess I had worked myself up with this fear in me of something going wrong yesterday and the day before, knowing after speaking to my DR Tuesday afternoon by phone she had said to me that after having the CVS done and all came back normal that all is fine, as for the cysts she said they should disappear in the third trimester, and what we will monitor is the baby's growth, as well she just may be a small baby. Yet apart from that all seems fine. Yet I still let myself get worked up. I guess needing to hear it from someone else has helped.
    Yesterday saw the Dr at the hospital who also has told me that once a CVS has been done and all is good then they dont pay attention to what the u/s reports say. SO he also advised not to worry. He said that with the cysts they dont cause any problems with the baby, so that was also good to hear. He also mentioned that it could just be cells still forming that make it look like a cyst. He said at this stage not to worry about the baby's growth as it is still early. Yet as the U/S place have noted that not all of the heart could be seen, although they could see that bubs has a four chamber heart there is something in the middle they couldnt see. Which he found strange since they could see a 4chamber heart. So anyway they want to monitor that, so have me going to the feto maternal unit on Thursday for another u/s. I think it is called an Anomoly u/s, I am assuming they will also check on the cysts as well as bub's growth on the day. So hopefully all is ok with her heart.
    I still have to see the Physicians on Tuesday and then two weeks after that before I go back and see the DR 4weeks from Tuesday unless there is a problem then I need to see the Dr again after the u/s.

    Thanks again everyone, I really appreciate you all being here for me once again. It just hasnt seemed to end with this pg.

    Hi cheryl, my little girl had large bilateral choroid plexus cysts. Needless to say I worked myself into a panic for sometime but she is a beautiful healthy little girl. The cysts are often found in babies without any genetic abnormalaties and resolve on their own. A lot of literature suggests not telling parents as they are generally not a problem and just cause the parent worry.

    As for the heart it may just have been the position te baby was in that made it hard to visulise the septum. If they can see four chambers it is present, they like to have a good look at it to see that it is whole.

    Good luck with the anomaly scan, just think of it as another chance to see your bubs
