Re: Monday Anatomy Scans and Appointments
I have an appt. at 10am EST for follow up bloodwork for my NT scan (gosh I feel sooo at the back of the pack now seeing all these a/s's and I'm still working on NT scan stuff
)
Good luck to everyone with appointments today!

I had an apt today and everything was great. We reviewed my ultrasound report in detail and it was perfect. Heard the heartbeat and it was 148 bpm. Let's just say I am definitely gaining weight right on track
Baby and I both appear to be very healthy, and I'm certainly very happy.
Best of luck June '14 moms today!!
We have our a/s and appointment today at 1:30.
I am so incredibly nervous. This is the same time last year that we learned that my daughter had a cyst on her brain. (I have posted about it before, but she ended up being completely fine after lots of weeks of extra testing and a trisomy 18 scare)
I am just so nervous that we will have something else come up with this baby. Last time we were struck by it once we saw the dr since the ultrasound tech really can't say anything. I just want to hear baby is healthy and everything is as it should be!
Thanks for listening to my craziness!

MIL is the reason we're team yellow this time, haha. I'm not sure I'll be able to catch myself saying "him" but this is something I really want to do, especially since its our last

I was told the same about at our scan. Apparently it's something they are seeing more and more because of better technology and if your baby has no other markers it will be fine. I searched tb and found a lot of good outcomes and I feel very confident our little girl will be ok.
My doctor is sending us for a level 2 ultrasound just to be sure and let someone else take a look and make sure that all the organs and everything else look good. This is the same thing that happened last time. I can send both of you TONS more information on PM if you are interested. Mainly if everything else looks fine there are really not any other concerns.
I am honestly still in shock, I cannot believe that this is happening to us again. I am so happy that everything else looks good, but it makes it so much harder to feel like I can fully celebrate, and I am on edge until we know more. I also can't believe we have now had it with both our pregnancies when it's like 1 in 100 chance to have it

I have a question though... I am supposed to be 19wks 2 days but the scan came back saying that the baby is measured at 21 wks 2 days. How accurate is that? I don't wanna go on leave too early! I would rather spend more time at home after the baby is out!
DD always measured a few weeks ahead. My doctor never changed my due date but he did schedule an induction 10 days prior to my due date based on her size. The induction ended up happening even earlier due to pre e. Who knows whether that is something your doctor would suggest or not.
I know what you mean about feeling unable to celebrate. At first I felt like maybe I shouldn't buy anything until after she is born to make sure she's going to use it. But... I think these cysts are becoming even more common than the 1:100 as the u/s machines become better. And even without a level 2 ultrasound they could see heart or kidney issues that were obvious. Babies with trisomy have really obvious issues. I know you've been through this but it really did help me to search the bump and see other moms talking about their experiences and NONE of them had worst case scenarios happen. Some of them even had other soft markers but all their babies were great! I'm sorry you're having to deal with this again. When is your level 2?
