Cystic Hygroma (large NT@12 weeks)--not a good scan--Updated :)

Forums New posts
Mon&Jon--I had to look up "NK cells" because it sounded like a bad ass diagnosis! lol--what exactly does that cause?

I'll post the sex when I get home (in about an hour or so)
 
Ohhhh kayyy...sick of keeping this to myself.

Team...


































BLUE!
 
LOL, I knew it! I knew it without looking at the scan.

As for the NK cells basically it means my immune system is hyperactive and it thinks any new celld are dangerous and kills them, including an embryo. So I need treatment to make my immune system settle down some. I get IVs and it seems to be working.

wow, that's intense. I'm so happy for you that things are working out so far! Is it safe to assume that the further you get in your pregnancy, the lower risk you become? Are you currently being treated as a high risk patient?

Yeah, it's pretty crazy. But I have been told that the further I go in the lesser the risk. I probably won't need IVs past 20 weeks. And yes, I am high risk, I'll get scans every 2 weeks for now.
 
yes, the specialist team were far more educated and had a brilliant bedside manner compared to my first experience. i do wait for the results of the CVS and hope like many others its great and can report good news like everyone else. thanks gigglebox for letting me know yours increased in size as i thought that was the difference between me and most of the others. mine is septated as well and the specialists said that is the worst kind. fingers crossed.....:)
 
I knew it!!! I am so happy for this update!! I am so happy that things are turning around!! Lots of hugs!!!
 
Poop, I was wrong! :haha: But team BLUE :blue: how exciting!!!!! HE is such a little fighter :D xx
 
Thanks everyone!

Chester--please keep me posted on how things go. If you want to continue updating outside of this thread let me know, I'd be happy to give you my personal e-mail to keep in touch.

To whoever said I can start shopping--I am going to hold off doing anything, even letting the families know, until the next scan in two weeks. I am just SO paranoid of prematurely celebrating.

And about being a little fighter...he sure is :D Daddy says "My son is going to be a strong boy." It nearly brings a tear to my eye when daddy refers to him as "my son" instead of just "the baby" now.

Good luck to everyone! I'll keep on here with updates but for the most part it's my time to move to the 2nd tri :D
 
awww@ "my son"...I am so so glad that he is coming around and you both are realizing the reality that your son will make it through this :)
 
Yeah, I think he had trouble before because I think he was still trying to protect himself in case something goes wrong, you know? My Mom is doing the same thing. She doesn't want to know the sex until after the next scan still.
 
So happy for you! Still praying the progress is ongoing and your beautiful baby boy is born without any complications!!!
 
hi there, congratulations gigglebox on your baby boy news! how wonderful. i was just wondering if any of the cystic hygroma ladies had a nasal bone detected in the scans. i havent as yet and am not sure if thats a common thing or not. i know what it could mean. @gigglebox = would love to keep in contact - will update my CVS results tomorrow. am praying for an all clear....
 
So glad everything is working out for you gigglebox.

Congratulations again xxx
 
Thank you SO much everyone; it has meant the world to me.

Chester--When i had my CVS done, they did another scan. The doctor was talking to the nurse about the bone, but he never said anything out loud to me about it...he just said he was discussing it but it's too early to tell anything. On my 14 week scan you can clearly see a nasal bone...I think it doesn't mean much earlier. I know you're dying for answers but all you can do is take it day by day, wait for those results, and go from here. I am holding out so much hope for you and your little one!
