Have you had a CVS or amnio good results only to have Morph u/s show not so good

Hey sweety
firstly . Glad to hear the DR wasn't worried. My little bubba has/had cysts as well and they couldn't see all of her heart they told me she was laying wrong but like you they managed to get all four chambers . I had my second u/s and they said everything is fine.
With my first DD they said she had short limbs possibly genetic and to monitor growth she turned out to be 48.5cm long when born so I find some u/s really unrelieble I hope everything settles for you, you've had a tough run
lots of hugs kel

The big theme that I'm getting out of this thread, and other threads, and experiences of friends is that whilst in one way all of the testing that is available is great, on the other hand it causes a massive increase in anxiety in so many mothers that otherwise would not have happened. Take Kel's example - all supposition in their findings and no basis in fact. It's something I'm starting to notice a lot and it's really annoying me.

Slyder, you are quite right. There is starting to be some talk in the media about "over testing" and the people suggesting it are often criticised. But the reality is that there IS additional stress being put on parents-to-be and there is no real evidence that the number of problems picked up is sufficient to warrant the "false positives" and unnecessary worries.

It is also very alarming that there is not enough explanation of what tests mean and how accurate they are, and that there is a lot of misinformation floating about.

Hi csab. I'm sorry you are going through this, it seems some of us are plagued by issues throughout pregnancy. I can't offer any advice regarding your specific situation as all was well with our 24 week scan after the amnio, but I've just been through a scare with cord blood flow that could've seen me being induced earlier, but with another scan two weeks later all was back to normal. Sometimes I think the scans show us too much, things we would never have known about if we were pregnant in our mothers time, and we would've had much calmer pregnancies.

Thanks Everyone... You are all wonderful.

Satya - I am so relieved all is going along better now for you. So glad the cord issue has resolved itself and you can continue on with this pg to the end... Not long now hun and you will meet your little man. So very excited for you. Thanks for always being here for me. I am not sure on how Thursday U/S will pan out, I just hope there is better news.
