Hey Ladies,
A lovely midwife just phone and told me that I am a carier of the gene which causes Beta Thalasemia. We will have to go to the hospital on Monday and myself and hubby will have to have more blood tests to a. determine if hubby is also a carrier and b. to confirm I am.
If we are both carriers there is a one in four chance that our baby will have Beta Thalasemia....
I am at work at the moment and I am so worried.... just trying not to panic because we don't know anything for sure as yet.
Sorry about the pointless post I just don't really know who to talk to.
