Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to post an update to my situation. I received a call from the doctor at the Genetic centre at the hospital and she told me that my results showed a 1 in 19 chance that the baby has
DS.
I really couldn't and still can't believe it. I've felt sick all day thinking about it. I know that's only a 5% chance, but it just seems so high considering the normal results for a 25 year old is 1 in 1400! I feel very helpless at this point since there's nothing I can do now but wait. I have a CVS scheduled for Monday at 9:00am. The doctor told me that she would have the results by either the next day or by the day after that. I'm so relieved that I won't have to wait 2 weeks for the results! I know I'd go out of my mind worrying about it. This is so stressful, and I know it can't be good to be this stressed out, but it's impossible not to be.
DS was something I never even considered. The possibility never even crossed my mind before the tests. Now it's all I can think about and I think i'm still in shock. This whole thing is just awful. I just keep praying and praying that the results come back negative for
DS. I really don't know what I would do if they don't. I guess all I can do now is wait and see.
