had my anatomy scan done today they said baby had a small nose which could be a sign of down syndrome but had no heart defect or anything else unusual also said it is seen in alot of African American babies which my daughter is half black has anyone else had something like this show up on ultrasound
thanks ladies you have all made me feel so much better about things @babybermea @jlou @113015angel @lostinct82mj
@londysmama16, yes the first screening I had I tested positive for Downs, they sent me to a specialist and did a scan, didn't see anything but still had the blood test maternity21 done and it can back negative.
I had the same thing come back on my scan. Got a cell free DNA test (materniT 21) and a fetal medicine specialist referral. My blood test just came back with no chromosomal abnormalities :) good luck. It's scary but message me if you need to talk.
yea they mentioned some test that I turned done because of the risk of miscarriage I think that was it @babybermea
It's a simple blood test they take from your arm . Since you don't carry the down syndrome gene they know it's from the baby in the bloodwork . If they offer you an amniostisis (not sure how to spell it ) test I would research it bc they basically poke your baby with a long needle which can cause a lot of issues and a lot of women are against it but to each women it's own . Anyways don't stress over it doll.
okay thanks that makes me feel a little better @babybermea
Don't worry about that they can give you a blood test to check for any deficiencies and also they can sit you down with a genetic counselor it is the doctors job to warn you just to cover there own asses if they felt it was serious they would tell you of other testing options
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
