July 2015 Moms

T & P, please. (update, x2!)

I haven't been terribly active in posting on here, but read daily.
I'm 14w1d, EDD July 5th. First pregnancy.
I got a call from the doctor's office today. It seems that my first trimester blood work has come back with a positive high risk for Down Syndrome. Prior to the blood work, I am told we were looking at a 1 in 200 risk. Now, it's 1 in 13.
An appointment has been made for tomorrow afternoon with a high risk consulting practice. I have no idea what to expect and feel like the rug has been pulled out from under me.
If you could spare a prayer, a kind thought or whatever positive energy you have to offer for a terrified FTM, her supportive but equally terrified DH and our tiny Tater Tot, I would be grateful.

*update*
Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and advice. It has helped us all immensely.
We went to the appointment this afternoon and, as I expected, didn't get answers, but rather gathered information and data to get answers later. An amino was performed and we'll have results in a little less than two weeks. Until then we wait. And hope. And distract ourselves.
*update 2*
Got the call from the doctor today. OUR DAUGHTER IS IN THE CLEAR! 46 Chromosomes!

  • I'm so sorry you're going through this. Easier said than done, but try to stay calm and hopeful while you wait for more testing. T&P for you and your family. The odds are still in your favor. Keep us posted on your appt
  • I'm glad they got you in so quickly. I hope you get some comfort in your answers.

  • More thoughts and prayers coming your way.  

    Like others have said, even though 1/13 sounds scary, try to focus on the  "92% chance that everything is fine" perspective.  I know it's hard to do.  We're all sending positive thoughts that everything is ok and Tater Tot is healthy!

  • T&p your way!! Hopefully it is just a high possibility or some fluke in the tests. My relative who lives in France received the initial tests at some super high probability. She asked for a retake of all tests to confirm it, and it came back normal. I don't know what types of tests those were, but hopefully you are in a similar position!!

  • That's still under an 8% chance, mama. I'm hopeful that your LO falls in the 92%. It's scary, but the odds are still in favor of a healthy baby. Best wishes to you!
