Leigh - had the scan and the sonographer said that everything looked good. He didn't measure the neck part in front of me though so still a little niggle in my mind about that but he did say it looked ok. Froggie is measuring bigger than what it is though at 13w1d but I do tend towards bigger bubs. Here's hoping that the blood test and the NT scan together come back with a good reading.
didi - Meara is mostly potty trained to. She would prefer to be a rudey nudey but I bought her some knickers yesterday so that she can start wearinng those throughout the day. Will have to get the preschool involved as well.
As you can see I'm having trouble with a bit of insomnia. Aaaarrrggghhhhh I hate this part of pregnancy
Well the scan and blood tests results came back and I have to go for another amnio. Will find out more on Tuesday at my appointment and what ratio it is. So unhappy and worried about it now as my age is against me. Also have infected sinuses so in heaps of pain. Until the antibiotics kick in I just want to curl up and cry
Kim, my fingers are crossed everything turns out ok. Try and stay positive (easier said than done I know). How long does it take for the results to come back after the amnio? Will u find out the sex?
Thanks guys. DF and I have been talking and we have decided that it doesn't matter what the amnio says we are going to have the baby anyway. My mum reckons that we should not bother with the amnio in that case but I think if something is wrong then I would rather be prepared to deal with it. I still have my fingers crossed that Froggie is healthy (as the last 2 were) and we don't have to stress about anything. Oh well only 2 more days until the dr appointment and then make a date for the amnio at the hospital.
Had the dr appointment and it's not trisomy 21 I have to worry about. It came back with a 1 in 47 chance of trisomy 13. So amnio here we come. Unfortunately trisomy 13 babies rarely survive gestation or if they do then they mostly pass away within a week of being born. My dr sent the referral for the amnio off today so hopefully it won't take to long to get a date. Now just need to stop blubbing and try to be positive. That is going to be the hard part.
