Hi all, I’m posting as a vent really. I had my son by IVF 12 weeks ago. When he was born a Junior Dr thought he may have some soft markers of Down syndrome, the consultant said she wasn’t worried but that we should have the blood test for peace of mind! We are 12 weeks down the line and still no results!!! I feel so anxious about it. I find myself over analysing everything! My main concern if he is diagnosed is the state of services in the UK. I have worked in health and social care for a long time and know that we will have to fight for everything he needs as resources are just so scarce. I have been chasing the results with no success. I’m so obsessed by it it’s making me ill!! … for those in the UK how long did you have to wait? I feel so angry that we are being made to wait for so long. I love my little man so much I just want to make sure I can do the best for him! If you have got to the end of this thanks for reading! X
