getting amnio results tomorrow!!

[xxClaire_24xx]

ho everyone not been on in ages as we have had so much going on

Went for our follow up scan for the baby beong so small last Thursday and we got reffered to the fetal medicine unit for an appointment and another scan on the Friday,

the baby is only measuring at 22 weeks which is very small and we have been told that there are 4 reasons this could be

1, the placenta isnt working properly
2, that she isnt growing because there is very very little fluid in there
3, I had picked up a viral infection along the way and she caught it
and 4, which is the least likely but still a chance, a chromosome problem which will either be edwards or pacauds syndrome they have ruled out down syndrome as the baby would still normally be the correct size on a scan

the first that they want to test are the chromosome problems as she wont survive any of them so we chould hopefully get they results tomorrow and if it isnt that it is then the vial infection and if its not that it will be a placenta problem and they will deliver the baby.

has anyone had any of these problems in a pregnancy or know someone who has, please be honest even if its not great news


thanks xxx

Oh claire, I just replied to your comment on mablestars post

What a time you are having, I just want to send you a big cuddle tonight X

I read up on Edwards and Trisomy 13 when we had our CVS , and your right not good
I have everything crossed for your results on friday that baby is fine, and that's one off of the list.

Maybee it is just your lack of fluid in there, as you had that from a really early stage, or related to your bleed too?

could they give you antibiotics to help the baby incase infection? and buy you more weeks until a early delivery?

Thye sound like they are taking good care of both of you to sort this out XX

thanks yeah they arent good at all but they want to know if she has any of them as they need to deliver soon by ceserean and they dont want to cut me open and then i will have further problems in later pregnancies with the scar, if she does have a chromosome problem then they will induce a miscarriage and i will deliver normally but if she is healthy other than being small then they will deliver by ceaserean so that she doesn get damaged during birth.

I had the amnio last Fri get the results tomorrow afternoon xx

Our baby is also very small, but has been all the way through and we've never had it suggested that there is any big problem other than her being a very small baby. I think she is currently measuring at about 30 weeks but as I say has been growing throughout the pregnancy but just alwatys measuring small. Did you measure small at 12 weeks too?

Sending big hugs your way, what a worrying time.

I hope the amnio results are good and hopefully if she is small she can be given time to grow a bit more before they have to deliver.
