Hello everyone! THis is my first post, and my first time here at Baby and Bump.
I am 17 weeks pregnant as of today
I got a call from my OBGYN that the bloodwork that was done (2nd part of the IPS testing) came back saying that my had a 1 in 310 chance of having spina bifida; the norm is i in 1000. He said not to worry, and this just is pretty much a way of saying that there should be further testing. So we have an ultrasound in 2 weeks to find out what that shows.
I am just so nervous, and 2 weeks is a long time!! Has anyone here ever experienced anything like this? I will be worried sick until the day I get the results of that ultrasound.
And I have been taking a prenatal vitamin and folic acid for about a year now, so I am so frustrated and nervous.
Anyone out there who can reassure me who has gone though the same?
Thanks so much!
