Anyone else waiting Amnio results? I'm terrified.

[nikkinoo77]

Hiya!
I'm 33 and pregnant with my 2nd baby. I had blood results back which showed my HCG hormone 4x what it should be, scan was fine but my bloods have put me in the high risk category for downs, 1:129 chance to be exact.

I had the amnio last week with no probs, have been told I will get results thurs or friday this week and am so so scared. Am very tearful and feel sick whenever i think about what might be about to happen.

Just wondered if anyone else is waiting for amnio results and is going through the same.

Any positive feedback at all would great

hi, im liane im 30 and due my 2nd child too, im sure your results will come back just fine, try not to worry too much, i too go in for a cvs test tomorrow, they have me down for a 1 in 5 chance of down syndrome, how was the amio test if you dont mind me asking? was it painful?

I have my fingers crossed for you and hope you get the results you are waiting to hear xx

Hi Liane

I hope your right, I'm so scared right now, as I guess you are too. I have got my fingers crossed for both of us

The amnio didn't hurt one bit, it felt a bit unconfortable but thats it, it was over before I knew it, that was Weds last week. Are you going to have the Amnio as well?

We found out 3 weeks ago that i was at risk, ive been so stressed and trying to look after my 18 month old is hard. I basically havent seen any of my friends for weeks, i just want this nightmare to be over.

When will you get your results? i hope yours are quicker than mine.

hi, glad to hear its not too painfull!! i wont be having a amnio too im just having the cvs where they take from the placenta instead, my docs said i will have the main results back within 48hrs so thursday at the latest, then they leave the results to mature over 2 weeks to check for any other smaller problems as far as im aware, fingers crossed for the two of us and hopefully it will be just 1 big nitemare in which if it is i think the docs need to re think how to put the message forward to people as it is soo scary for people in our position and from alot of reading up there is that many false positives going around its scary!

 

[nikkinoo77]

When did you say you were having cvs? How do they do that test? looks like you will be getting your results before me so ive got everything crossed for you.

I've also done a lot of reading and am desperatly hoping this is all just precautionary, I agree though, its too scary. My screening midwife said in 5 years they are doing away with screening tests including scans and having 1 blood test at 3 months which tells you one way or another if there are any problems. I would much rather that than all this waiting.

Im having it tomorrow 3.30, its similar to the amnio 1 but where as they take fluid from round the baby with mine they go into the placenta with the needle and take a small amount of placenta to test, with me only been 12wks this is the test i have to have otherwise i would have to wait until i was 15+ wks for the amnio test

Good luck with your results

I had an amnio done quite a few weeks back and it took 3 WEEKS to get my results...longest 3 weeks ever

Hope all goes ok today liane, I'm sure you will be fine, the waiting is nearly over for both of us now. I'm praying our results are good ones and that we don't have to wait any longer than Thurs.

Good luck again
