I am going to be brave and start a thread

I'm the same with every scan and midwife appointment. I think it just makes us normal, especially when we've wanted it so much xx
 
Hi hun, hope you're ok xx :)
 
Ho I had my scan it wasn't the best result for me my babies nuchal translucency was high at 5.8mm so I have to go to kings college hospital within the next few days for a cvs test so I won't know for certain what is going on with my baby until I have the test the plus side will be I get to find out the sex nice and early x

Thanks hun it means I have a higher risk of my baby having down syndrome or another chromosome defects the cvs puts a big needle through my belly and takes a sample of the placenta which will give me answers either way x

Yes the test will give me a definite yes or no it checks for all chromosome disability and I don't they can tell how bad things will be until the child is born although it will be a much better scan so can check its heart ect but I have no clue what I am going to do until I get the answers as I need to consider the other kids as well although telling them there was something wrong made my 2 middle kids cry this was exactly the reason I didn't want anyone to know until after my scan x

Thanks for that I am trying to think positive and not worry until I know for sure x
 
Yeah just have to try and stay positive and calm hun as much as you can. I know that must be so difficult under the circumstances, particularly if your kids are upset too...no one likes seeing children upset. How is your other half doing? Do you know when the test is going to take place? I'm sure you have so much going on in your head right now. Like Frances said, lots of cuddles with the kiddies and hubby too. Try and stay strong xx from what I've read it doesn't necessarily mean there's anything wrong, it's just that there's a higher risk that's all.

Take care honey, I hope you're ok. Sending you a big, virtual hug. xxx
 
Sorry I've missed all this hun. Like everyone else has said, you just need to try to stay calm and positive. I know it's hard but until you know anything for definite try to concentrate on your other little ones. Thinking of you and keeping everything crossed for you. Hugs xxx

I'd say hubby us quiet as he's afraid he'll get upset n feels he needs to keep strong for u n the kiddies. He doesn't of course. Ben that's men isn't it?!
Huge hugs hunnie xxx
 
He said he broke down on the way home from work as of yet I have not cried I think I am trying to be strong for everyone and I am sure when I am o my own it will hit me and I will cry x
