oh good I'm so glad to hear that. I was gonna check in a few more days I didn't know when your appointment was. when the councilor told us she has a 1 in I can't remember anymore I started crying and the lady was so uncomfortable she's like it's good news

So my worries have been greatly reduced @steph11

The ultrasound at genetics. showed no other risks, Viktor appears to be very healthy with no anomalys present. My current risk for trisomy or other birth defects is 1:10,000

i have my fingers crossed. thank you

after my ultrasound and meeting I've been fine actually every once and a while I still worry about it. right there are no other factors in my case. they watched her heart and checked her hands and toes so in about 10 weeks when she gets here I'll know. but I'm pretty sure the early screen blood work is very accurate so hopefully in 2 weeks you'll get good news

and definitely don't feel like you caused it. some babies do normally for some reason develop these cysts. definantly keep me posted @steph11

it sounds like there are no other risk factors in your case though? i know that if there are no other markers found during an ultrasound, that the outcome is usually really good, and there isn't much to worry about at that point @steph11

all is did was cry for 2 weeks before I went to my ultra sound appointment I was beyond upset. I have cysts all over my body always have so I felt I caused it. you should find out that day. with a amino there is a 1 in 300 chance of a miscarriage but I'm pretty sure the early screen blood work you had done is very accurate so they might tell you there's no need to do one. I didn't do the early blood work. I feel dumb that I didn't.

no worries, thank you for responding, its good to know I am not the only one in this boat. i know that the cyst can be completely normal, and the baby can be born perfectly fine, but I know the big concern is that sometimes it is a marker for trisomy 18. it's still scary even though the risk for it is only 1-4% I have my genetic ultrasound on the 18th. Hopefully I will know more about what's going on on that day... I won't lie, I am petrified. I won't opt for an amneiocentesis because I have had 7 miscarriages total, and with such a low percentage of risk for trisomy 18 I don't think any risk of miscarriage is right. plus with my last baby I had my water break, and before that, I leaked a little periodically. so i think the risks aren't worth it in my case. the two part integrated blood test for trisomy 18, spinabifida, and down syndrome did come nack negative. Although I am not sure how accurate those tesys are @steph11

I'm sorry that's so long. but if you have questions I might be able to answer some about the cyst

my baby girl had a cyst. I went 2 weeks later for a level 2 ultrasound and a meeting with a gentic councilor which it was gone thankfully. they also checked her heart flow for a very long time to look for other markers that come along with trisomy 18. but her heart was great and no extra fingers or toes so I opted to not get the amino. I wish I would have gotten it to know for sure but it was less than 1% chance with what they saw on the ultra sound. the gentic councilor was actually extremely helpful I thought it was going to be done. but she explained everything they looked at on the ultrasounds and the possibility of her having it. I get regular ultrasounds done now. which the cyst has not returned and thankfully no other issues. I have another one in 2 weeks
