Hi mummies,
I'm 31yrs old & pregnant with my 3rd child. Did an oscar test earlier and was told that Trisomy 21 reading is 1:12 (high risk) when I got back the result... Was then recommended to do an amino test at 16weeks, results came back at 18weeks & shows that no extra chromosomes found .
That put my mind at peace at least for awhile until I went for my detailed scan today and was told that my baby has 'short' nasal bone, smaller head circumference & recessing chin compared to babies at this stage............ Heart shattered.... If abortion has to be done, it would have to be before 24weeks. Baby's organs & limbs are fine, hence, I wouldn't have the heart to end her life.
Any advice from mummies who have dealt with this before?
