Just finished CVS testing....

I'm not going to lie it hurt like hell but, everything seems okay.  I had one done transvaginally and one abdominally.  I should know the results between Friday and next Tuesday.

I also had one done with Emerson and it was so easy.  It didn't hurt a bit.  I'm not sure what the difference was this time. 

I had to fly out of state to do it and am sitting at the airport waiting to get home.  I wish I had my yoga pants on about now. 

I'm really, really glad it's over.

Re: Just finished CVS testing....

  • GL, I hope you get great results and get home soon. 

    When I had it done, they went abdominally for both.  The first one didn't hurt nearly as much as the second one.  I think it all depends on the position of the placenta.  The second needle went in a bit towards my left side, while the first one was more in the middle.  They said the ones to the side always hurt more...I swore on the table it hurt so bad.  But I was really glad I did it.

  • Just wondering--any specific reason you had to go out of state to do it?  And what state did you have it done in?  I don't have my BFP just yet (still hoping and praying) but we will have to do CVS with any future pregnancies since my miscarriage was due to an unknown chromosomal abnormality.

    Just wondering--any specific reason you had to go out of state to do it?  And what state did you have it done in?  I don't have my BFP just yet (still hoping and praying) but we will have to do CVS with any future pregnancies since my miscarriage was due to an unknown chromosomal abnormality.

    I went to Memphis to go to a dr that specializes in twins.  It's much more difficult to find a dr that has experience doing cvs on twins vs. a singleton.  I wish you the best of luck and if you have any questions, let me know!

    Oh, I had CVS mainly because of my age and wanted to make sure everything is okay with them.
