Hi everyone,
Well after weeks of reading bits a bobs on here, I am need of some advice/support from you...
My gf is 17 weeks pregnant and we've had the triple test results back and they are in the high risk catergory. (less than 1:250). We are absolutely gutted, I was confronted with a crying gf on the phone as I came out of the gym tonight. I rushed home to read the letter myself...
We have an appointment with the Senior Midwife on Friday at 11:15am, but are unsure of what this is for. I believe the next tests are amniocentisis(correct me if i'm wrong), but I take it this appointment will be just to discuss things or will they actually carry out the procedure?
We have always said that we would have the tests and accept the risks of miscarriage, as we would want to know. My gf is 25, i'm 29 and we are both fit and healthy and have no history of any downs in the family...
Your thoughts, advice or comments are welcome and would be much appreciated...
Testing times...
Thanks,
Dom
