Scared and in need of advice..
Hi ladies, so this post may be a tad long but please read & comment if you have any advice or experiences similar..
So this is my first pregnancy, I will be 25 next month & I am currently 16 weeks and 4 days ❤️ well at around 13 weeks I got the genetic blood testing done because I was so excited to be able to find out the gender early.. well when my results came back they came back with no results at all for anything besides that there was an atypical finding 💔 so I got set up with a genetic counselor and she called the lab to try to get more info and they said they believe there is an imbalance in chromosome 21.. on Monday I went in for a 16 week and 1 day ultrasound & baby was active and the ultrasound tech said the ultrasound so far looked normal but I did also have an amniocentesis scheduled for that day as well so I decided to go through with it because I wanted to be able to put the fathers and my mind at ease and hopefully finally get some answers but when they went to start I got very emotional and the procedure to me was very painful and I was in literal tears from the pain and emotions. The amniocentesis was not successful because when they were about to go through the membrane it had moved resulting in them not being able to get the fluid, they were gonna try it on the other said but I just couldn’t do it again on that day, it was a lot.. now I’m still sore and it was for nothing 😢 .. I don’t know what to do or what to even think.. I’m so scared and worried and none of this seems fair 💔 my heart hurts and I just want my baby to be healthy.. 😔 if anyone has any experiences similar to this please comment or message me, it will be beyond appreciated.
