oooooook. I need some support or words of encouragement. I recently had my midway ultrasound at 19 weeks (last week). My doctor's office called me and told me that they didn't get good enough views of the spine and needed to schedule another one..I was like, ok..but everything is fine? And the woman said "Oh yes!" Then, a few days later, the midwife from my doctor's office called & told me that they saw something called an "echogenic intracardiac focus" in my baby's heart...which is essentially a white dot in the picture. It is associated with a small percent increased risk of chromosomal abnormalities like Down's Syndrome. Hearing all of these words FREAKED ME THE F OUT. My bf and I cried..we went in and tried to get a better understanding, and the midwife was like "No! Your baby is 99% perfectly healthy we just want to do blood test to be SURE." So I got the maternity 21 blood test and another ultrasounds today. Now we wait. The more I look online, the better I feel, but it's still really scary. Has anyone else gone through this?


On a positive note, the girl who did our ultrasound today was soooo nice and even switched on the 3D which she isn't supposed to do lol. Our baby boy was sucking his thumb! But, the white dot was still there. (Which is to be expected). Supposedly they mostly disappear on their own during the third trimester.

@sammiesteeez, don't let them scare u, it is a fancy term for extra calcium and 1 in ten babies have it and 1 and 20 are born with it and out grow it by 5

My daughter as well has an echogenic focus and she is just fine. It's just a calcium deposit. As long as yiur@bloodwork came back fine all is wel!!

Just wanted to comment.. I was told the same thing today..I got so scared I cried in the car 😔..Reading these comments knowing others have been through the same comforts me 😀

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday…

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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
