Hi Ladies! I am finally on baby number 2 after five years of trying. I'm midway through my 18th week and just recently went in for my second ultrasound (having finished my IPS screening around 13 weeks). The ultrasound technician said I did great on my IPS results and everything was fine except I have low Papp-A levels. I've never heard this term before. During the ultrasound itself she maintained that the baby looked fine and was developing on schedule...then I went home and Googled exactly what Papp-A was (big mistake) And now I'm freaking out, depressed and crying.
They didn't seem too concerned at all at the appointment and in my ignorance of the actual diagnosis I didn't ask barely any questions... Especially since they kept reassuring me everything looked normal.
I now have to have ultrasounds every two weeks. Has anyone had any experience with this at all? Everything I read online is sorta scary. Its a fairly new test from what I have read.
