I haven't seen anything about defects. diabetes could be a cause but not a risk. also down syndrome is normally caught way before now and doesn't develop this late on. don't worry. I'm 27 weeks today and my son is 3 lbs already. @keiara1987

I have sickle cell disease and I am high risk.. and no I haven't had problems with becoming pregnant nor have I had a problem with lost.. and the risk that I've seen was feta defect and diabetes. .and also down syndrome and I am 27weeks and the baby is 2 pounds @ccortez @ssdj4 @mommahicksxoxo

what serious things did you find on it that could happen? I see a high risk specialist and he doesn't seem worried and thinks I will make it to term and I've already had a preemie. This doctor would flat out tell me risks if it was serious. idk if your case is different but most the time you just have an early baby.

it is time for biweekly appointments. 26 weeks starts them normally and I have extra fluid due to diabetes.

has it been difficult to become pregnant or have you experience many loses.
