Always praying lots of thoughts, do you mind me asking what happened last time? I am sure this one will be great!
No problem. We had a fairly normal pregnancy and went for a reassurance scan at 12 weeks, had a great 7 and 9 week scan previous to that. They saw a problem in the scan and recommended the full NT scan to see what was up. Said it was probably nothing. Two days later we were in for the NT and blood work. Our odds for T13 and T18 were 1 in 10, so we opted for a cvs which confirmed Trisomy 13. The most fatal and devastating of the three trisomies. Baby wasn't going to make it much longer, we finally lost him at 14 weeks 6 days.
We waited 6 months to try again, which felt like a reasonable time. I'm still nervous and wondering, but they say it's not hereditary and was just "bad luck" (ugh, awful way to put it).
So now, I'm a week and a day away from our NT and bloods and getting nervous, but having faith and quite hopeful. What else can you do?
I appreciate you asking, sometimes people don't like talking about it, or hearing about it, but getting it out feels therapeutic. It brings life to my boy, makes his tiny life more real. I never want to frighten anyone, but I don't want to keep it a dirty little secret either.
