Hello,

I have a mild form of Spina Bifida. My Mum didn't have scans when she was pregnant so nothing showed up and when I was born they couldn't tell anything was different about me. I have always been a real fidget as the base of my spine is weak and sometimes uncomfortable, the cold can get in really easily too. It wasn't until I was 12 and a friend noticed by right calf is a little bit thinner then my left one that I had xrays and they discovered the fault in my spine. I too did Gymnastics until I was 12 and can still touch my feet to the back of my head. The muscles in my back have grown really strongly over the weak point so where I used to feel a dent as a child I can now only feel muscle. Because of my discovery at 12 I have always been really mindfull of my back and how I pick things up, and now have a natural brilliant posture and probably less backache then the average person due to the care I have always taken. I honestly wouldn't have known anything was wrong if I hadn't had that xray. You are just used to what you have so assume it is no different than anyone else. Please don't dispair, this may not effect your babies life.

I wish you all of the best and hope that someone can give you some more advice on your personal situation soon that puts your mind at rest.

Becs

Well it didn't go that well today.
They did a more in depth 4d scan and the consultant said its really severe - on a scale from A to Z, he said its near z.

Also, another thing was picked up....the stomach is growing beside the lungs and heart. This means the lungs may get squashed and stop working. I can't remember what its called but if the baby only had this condition alone, it would only have 50% of a chance of surviving, so with the spina bifida its even less of a chance now.

They think it may be a chromeosone disorder so they did the needle test to take a sample of the fluid, my head is messed up, I can't think of what the test is called at the moment.
So Iv to wait for that to come back on Thursday now....more waiting!!!!
That test will also pick up the sex of the baby...so I will find out then what it is then.
I have another appointment next Tuesday to see how things are progressing.

Thanks for all your kind thoughts.

xoxoxo
