One of my very best friends had an ultrasound yesterday. She is 19 weeks pregnant and was going to find out the gender and have a full scan to see if the baby was doing ok. Turns out its a girl (YAY!!) but they also found the baby had a thick neck (which I guess means increased levels of cerebrospinal fluid), a small nasal bone, and a possible heart condition. The doctor suggested they see a Perinatologist for an amnio to confirm what he suspects to be either Down's Syndrome or worse, Trisomy 18. They have to wait until MONDAY to see the specialist. That seems like an eternity when you are worried about the safety and future of your baby. Needless to say she and her DH are a wreck. I know alot of you ladies are pregnant with beautiful and healthy babies. Please give a little extra T&P for my best friend
Thanks girls!!
Re: T&Ps needed please!!
Very scary! My T&P's are with your friend and her H.
I hope they get better news from the specialist
Oh no.. I will definitely pray for them, I can't even imagine how they must be feeling right now.
Oh no, I will be keeping them all in my T&P!
You have a PM my dear
I tried to respond, but it kept telling me "user not found" when I would submit it!! darn it! Anywho, no worries(in response to the PM). I hope they hear good news on Monday.*fingers crossed*
