Not so good news on our anniversary

Natahlie

When we did the genetic blood test to also find out the sex of the baby early , we found out that my lab levels were very high for Down syndrome . Yesterday on our 10th Anniversary we had an appointment with maternal and fetal to follow up on the labs . We spoke to a counselor of all the risk of the invasive testing , my husband spoke up and said we will not be doing it because of our two losses before ( he was speaking out for both of us because I was stuck ) . After speaking to the counselor we did an ultrasound. They did abdomen ultrasound then vaginal to try and see if she would turn around . She was being very stubborn like my husband and our 9 year old daughter . After numerous attempts they called the dr in to see if he wanted to look at her and take better pics . When he came in and starting looking he was making weird faces and was very quiet . My husband said what do you see something ? He was like well yes. The dr then proceeded to say well there is slot of fluid under sling under her neck , fluid blocking half of her lungs , her intestines are abnormal , and other abnormal findings . He said its shows more thank likely she has Down syndrome or worse . By the time I shut down again as my husband held my hands tightly while I lay there . I could hear anything else . I sat up from the table between my husband and dr and just sat there in silence . The dr said I wouldn’t go invasive to do testing because it puts me at higher risk due to all of the fluid inside of her would be me at our higher risk for miscarriage. My husband told him I said we decided not to do that now my wife has to put her clothes on . And the dr left with the two techs . It was an emotionally Day on our 10th wedding anniversary. We both know we want this child no matter what the outcome is and she would be loved without a doubt . I’m just human and a mother . We go for a follow up July 8 they want to look at her heart . We see my obgyn June 26th. We just want her to make until December so we can see her and shower with love . 5 1/2 more months
