Scan tomorrow - Scared stiff
By Kittyrugs » Posted Jul. 8, 2013 4:23pm - 263 views - 0 comments
Well it's my dating scan tomorrow, and i'm scared stiff. Back to the hospital where I was given a 1:2 chance of my little baby having Downs and heart problems last year. This was confirmed with a CVS test at Kings College in London and a detailed scan confirming severe heart problems, we lost her.
So, i'm scared, I can't help it. My consultant told me it's very, very rare to happen again, and my next pregnancy will most likely be normal. I know they can't tell much from this scan and it's purely for dating my pregnancy and to see if the baby is viable. But thats worried me also, (viable) I keep thinking that what if baby is not alive, or something else. I've got to pull myself together and try and keep calm. I'm stressing myself out too much, i'm usually quite laid back and calm but lately my mind has been running away. I must be strong again, i've got to be strong. Just want to get over this hurdle so we can prepared for the next one. Fingers and toes crossed.
