well considering my age 43!!!!! .........i started with a risk of 1 : 27
and it went up to 1 : 199 (the age of a 37 year old no less !!!)
the fold mesured 1.6mm, the consultant was brilliant we were with
him for nearly 1hr, he explained that anything under 300 is high risk
but u have to take into account the risk if u want to have CVS/amnio
so my dp and i both agreed we were quite happy with our risk and
are not having any further tests. I spoke with my sister-in-law last
last night and she was 39 when she had her little girl and her risk
was 1 : 455 and the fold measured the same as mine 1.6mm, so
i feel reasonable happy.
It was so wonderful to see the little one, what a mover, and we even
got a little wave, we have a vidio which i havnt had time to watch,
as i had to go out shopping for shorts, (off on hols next week Ye Ha)
its been a nightmare trying to get shorts, but eventually track
some nice onces down in BHS and very inexpensive.
Tks girls for all your lovely thoughts earlier, realy do appreciate the
support.
lots of love alisonnxx
p.s they have moved my due date from 10/9 to 7/9
Alisonn,
great news! it is great to be reassured and to have a concultant who can help you take the decisions. i am already feeling apprehensive about my tests since our doctors never give any advice, just mutter about odds and statistics...
love,
juliana
