Thanks Tami, we hope so too! I guess stress is just par for the course when you're pregnant or have children. Just want to get past it and find out that the baby is ok!

I am so sad you have to go through this stress, I would be a worried mess myself as well.  I am praying that everything turns out o.k. 

When you had your first tests, was it a combo of bloodwork and an ultrasound and was it done by a maternal fetal specialist or just your ob?  If not those factors could pay into test results that are off base. 

Please do keep us posted.

Thanks Kim! I was definitely a worried mess at first. Now I'm just praying and hoping for the best, trying to stay positive about it all.

The only test I've gotten so far was the quad screen.....just bloodwork. I'm doing an ultrasound with a maternal fetal perinatologist on March 10th. Then they will decide if they think I'll need to get an amnio done or not.

I hope this is all just a case of a big fat false positive and that our baby is 100% healthy!

Sorry about all this worry.  When is the U/S and Amnio?

Thanks! Worry is the last thing I need and the first thing that I do....lol

The u/s is March 10th and they'll decide if or when I'll need an amnio at that appt. I'm pretty sure. I just don't know if I'm going to do the amnio. Too much risk for me to feel comfortable with getting it done.

Sorry the results weren't better.  I know how scary it is to be told something could be wrong with your baby.  Thank God all of Noah's test came back normal.  I pray that you have the same results!

Thanks Amy! I hate when there's something else to worry about, as if we don't worry enough already!

Hi Allie!
I haven't been here in ages, but just logged in and happened to see this post.  I hate that you're worried (and congrats to you, too, of course!)   You should read this birth story - in fact I think all mothers should.  It really changed me.  Have tissues ready.  Like a truckload or two...

Hopefully you have nothing to worry about... but if you do, your worries might not be as big as you think.
