I've posted here before about my abnormal NT scan (cystic hygroma)...ever since then, we've had nothing but good news (normal CVS, normal microarray, hygroma disappeared at our 13w5d repeat NT scan). My OB is super optimistic, as is MH. But before we get the all clear, we need to check for structural defects (which a cystic hygroma is a marker for) through a fetal echocardiogram, which is scheduled approximately 400 years from now...on August 6.
The waiting is KILLING me. I keep reading stories about women who had normal chromosome on CVS but then lost their baby unexpectedly because of some other structural defect that wasn't visible at 14 weeks before the fetal echo. I have been listening to the HB using my doppler every couple of days, which has helped a little, but I can't help but think the hygroma was there for a reason that we just haven't discovered yet.
Anyway, there isn't really a point to this post other than my whining. Thanks for listening ladies...
