Sick of team termination!!!!

Hun, it's totally your desicion, I can't believe that other people would even dream of trying to influence you, and on something that you have already told them where you stand on it, they should never even bring up that part of it, you told them your lovely baby has downs, not opening a debate into it.

I actually had furtger testing with my baby as we had a different take on it for our baby at the time. hope you don't mind , but I really wanted to post to you , so you and your oh knew that I would still never judge or suggest that someone else makes the same descision as we would have been thinking about.

Tell them where to go, your real freinds will be there for you, and the others don't then matter. It takes it's toll on you all this worry of testing - so now that all this testing is all over , you will be able to relax more, enjoy your pregnancy from here and look forward to meeting your precious little bundle X

here is more proofthat are just as normal as us, did you watch eastenders last night,well that chap had downs and look at him he had a part in one of the biggest soaps and did a fantastic job xx
 
Aaawww Hope, it's no-one else's decision but yours. I know a few people with Down's children and they are the happiest, sweetest children you could ever hope to have. They are so loving and have a wicked sense of humour. Your daughter is so lucky to have you in my opinion xxxxxxxxx
 
Thank you everyone so much for your lovely responses...

Not so shocking news ... OH's 'friend' who is now in my opinion the most stupid man to walk the face of the earth has NOT been back in touch with OH. A fact I am so damn happy about!

What an arsewhole at leat he will stay well clear and after your little lass is born i bet he wont show his face again after what he said!!
 
The choice is both of yours in the end and not everyone.

I opted for the downs test. Friends asked me if it came back as the baby had it would I be getting rid of it and the answer was no. I had the test done so I could get prepared and get advice.

You have a bunch of people on here i'm sure that is behind you 100%
 
Yes an I feel so relieved that I found this site, as I believe the people here have kept me sane so frequently since I joined! I have to be totally honest and say thT without a doubt I would never blame or judge anyone for terminating with this news. I would support and understand that decision. That is what hurts so much. If I can be open enough to respect everyone's freedom of choice, why can they not respect mine and my fiance's.

It's this msg board that has kept me strong at times as I can see that I would have had support for whichever choice I would have taken! It just so happens that my fiance and I do believe that we will not only cope with a child with DS, but also will grow and develop as people as a result of meeting this little treasure that we already love and want to protect!

It's so funny, because at times I find myself in floods of tears believing that I am not strong enough to cope with any medical issues that may be thrown my way! Then I remember what my hormones did when I was last pregnant with my daughter, an I remember having days when I thought "I'm nit old enough to be a mummy!" or "I'm not responsible enough to be a mummy!" and yet, my daughter coming along proved to me that I was both of those things. She taught me so much and has helped me to develop and grow into a good mummy! I don't feel that this pregnancy is any different!

Sorry for my essay here ... It's just at the front of my mind today I think! You are all such a great support! Thank you sp so much xxxx
 
U will always get support from us ladies :hug:

And as I scrolled down I thought ur sig said "Barbara Turner" :lol:
 
Ha ha Barbara... I will have to tell OH that and see if we could name her that! Xxx
 
HA!!! That's all I can say to those pigs who told me to terminate ... My daughter is perfect... All 47 chromosomes!!!!
 
How bloody rude, I can't believe the audacity of some people - and they call themselves friends! Friends wouldnt say that! Its not their place to get involved and give their so called opinions - thats your child!! How dare they! x
 
Aww Congrats!!! Not bloody friends.of yours Xx

Sent from my shit hot phone! Fo shizzle home girls.
 
Never ever let anyone tell u what to do. I am amazed that ur so called friends haven't supported u both in whatever decision u have made. Just shows how shallow people are. My husbands brother is special needs and at his school there are several with ds. They are so happy because all they see is the wonders of the world. They are amazing children. This was the reason I never had the test done either just the risk test because to me it never mattered.
Ur little one will be beautiful with two parents who are clearly going to give her a wonderful life filled with love xxxx
 
Congratulations! She is absolutely beautiful! X
