Pregnancy Info HOME

Mammabunny - So sorry that you have to join this group but truth be told, thee are sooo many comforting stories on this board and it is the only place that I can make some sort of sense out of all this. We have all been to the dark side with this finding and all I can say that it does get better, but the doubt never goes away.

I am almost 30 weeks now and I still have bad days - most of the time I am positive and extermely happy but there are times that I go online and search every pregnancy board I can get my hands on.

Eugenia - You are not alone in your feeling, as a matter of fact, a few posts back, I posted the very same question...is it really fear or is it my inuition. All I can say is that I think it is fear of the unknown. We were not willing to take the risk with an amnio given that 1.) the peri did NOT recommend it and 2.) our risk ration was 1 in greater than 5,000 (bbefore the EIF it was 1 in greater than 10,000). I could not justify the risk and neither could my OB. Although he did say that he would send me for one if it would worry me that much. It was my husband who put his foot down and said no way.

Gretchen - You had the amnio right?! Wishing you a very speedy and healthy delivery. You know that you LO is as healthy as can be...hang in there.

1moremom - Can not wait for you to post your good news. Good luck as well!

As for me, we have our 3D/4D ultrasound tomorrow and I am excited to see her. The 20 week was the last time we had an ultrasound and it has now veen 10 weeks...eeek............
