...Has anyone had the doctor tell them they found something in the ultrasound? - UPDATE !

edited June 2011 in Second Trimester
I got a call from my nurse today saying I had to make an appointment as soon as possible because they received the results of my u/s (i go to the hospital for the u/s's) and there's something important she had to discuss with me. I can't help but to think something is wrong with my baby, I'm 21w 3d. I panicked and asked her if everything was ok and she kinda was like ehh I can't discuss that on the phone, so now i have to wait until Monday !!! :( I think I'm gonna go nuts from now until then...I'm scared :( Has anyone had this happen to them?

- UPDATE -

OMG I didn't think I'd come on pregly to find these many posts on my thread..you ladies are the best ! :X
OK so here goes my day, u/s at 10 am the tech that usually sees me wasn't there, so I saw another girl (I actually liked her better then my tech) anyway I told her that the doc called me and told me that something was up so she checked my baby she said everything looked fine and she didn't know why they would of told me that. I went for this u/s as a follow-up to my anatomy scan being that they couldn't get a clear shot of his spine the first time around..so the u/s went really quick like literally less then 10 minutes. I was relieved to see my baby alive and moving around, it was the cutest thing he had his little legs crossed at the ankles :) but in the back of my mind I'm wondering wth the doctor was talking about?!?!

OK so doctors appointment at 1:30 I get there at 1, thats how anxious I was and I didn't get seen until 2:30 :-W So soon as I walk in I ask the doctor what was up, he says that the babies heart isn't developed all the way but don't worry it's normal..I'm like don't worry?!? So he explained to me that sometimes the 4 chambers of the heart aren't exactly separated all the way and usually this problem fixes itself in time. He also told me that he sees this everyday and it's completely normal they just want to make sure it's not something more serious. Their sending me for a fetal echo which is where they put this tiny speaker on my abdomen and it sends ultra high pitch sound waves in my belly to get detailed images of the heart...but that's not til July 15th, I'm actually really confident that everything is gonna be OK and it's just something minor. Oh and they also told me that my placenta is in the front and that's why I haven't been feeling as much movement as I was.

So all in all I had a good day. I'm sorry I couldn't get to you guys earlier I'm truly exhausted, plus bd made us walk to the doctor since I don't walk anywhere lol We came home about 2 hours ago but we ordered some chinese and I was just putting away some stuff cuz we went shopping. On another good note my cousin has a 3 week old and came by today and dropped off a ton of baby stuff, the cutest bassinet ever, an electric breast pump, a bunch of newborn onesies, brand new baby bottles to store the breast milk and even some maternity clothes. I just wanna thank you guys so much for caring and showing support, If any of you ladies ever need me I will always be here ! God bless you & your little ones <3 <3

  • I hope everything is ok but I honestly dnt thnk tht she'd make u wait all the way ntil Monday to say wat is wrong
  • I'm sorry that is stressful. But if it was super serious I would think they would send u to l&d they wouldn't jepordize u or the baby! Try to stay positive and enjoy your weekend I will say a prayer for you! Pls update when u know!
  • Sending positive vibes and prayers your way, hun!
  • I hate when crap like that happens! Just try to rest & relax and I'll be praying for you and your little one. (((hugs)))
  • You guys are right..thanks so much you did make me feel a whole lot better, I would think if it was dangerous she would of send me to the er, even the bd was telling me to relax but I just didn't wanna hear it..i even told him to get out of my face :( Thanks alot ladies !
  • Prayers and thoughts going your way! Crap 3 day wait but like all said if it was ASAP you would be told to come in NOW no matter what time. Good luck on patience will be waiting for update
  • Thanks for all the support ladies !! :)
  • My heart is feeling for you! I can sense the tension and confusion. Not a fun place to be. We can't ignore our feelings and concerns. But all you can really do is pray for your answers to come quickly and for confidence in the update. Im sure its nothing. They had a scare with my son when I was 17 weeks. They saw shadowing in his heart through u/s. Could be a sign of downs. So I had to wait 2 more weeks for my next u/s. That was a definite time of prayer for us :) that's all you can do sometimes but it's also the best thing to do! I believe God will take your burdens. Lovingly :)
  • You do have to stay relaxed. Just keep thinking that if it had something to do with your bean they would see you tonight. So good luck chicka hoping for you both.
  • Life threatening I mean.
  • Thanks so much ladies your words mean so much to me..u have no idea <3 hugs

    @ladicapo Prayers and positive thoughts sweetie.
  • Everything will b fine dnt stress grl :)
  • Has anyone had something like this happen??
  • They found abnormalities in my ultrasounds but mine were done at my doctors office and were discussed right then and there
  • @rockinmomma is everything gonna be ok?? and if u don't mind me asking what did they find..i have all these crazy thoughts in my head as to what it could be...
  • I doubt they would make you wait if it was something serious. Maybe it's twins? Haha think positive! Stressing won't be good for you or baby! Parying for you!
  • have you had an ultra sound before? Maybe they see another baby? And they want to make sure and tell you in person
  • @bentleysmommy I know thats what everyone keeps saying :) I hope your right, I'm just so worried, twins actually run in my bfs family, 2 of his uncles are twins so maybe your right but unfortunately I can't help to think the worst :(
  • @excitedtobe yes this will actually be the 5th ultrasound!
  • I know girl, I would be stressing to. Everyone always tells me not to stress but definitely easier said then done when it's about your baby. Atleast you find out what it is in a few hours! I'm praying it's good news rather than bad! Keep us updated :)
  • ..the crazy thing is that my baby always looks so big and active and healthy when I go to my ultrasounds so I don't know what it could be...
  • @bentleysmommy I will def keep everyone updated I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight I have to be there at 10 and its 2 am here!
  • They discovered that my baby girl has an enlarged kidney, it ended up being because she has a double collection system and it may require surgery to correct when she's 6months old. It was difficult to hear at first but now im grateful they caught it early and potentially saved my baby from having a life full of bladder and urinary tract infections.
  • @rockinmomma OK I'm hoping if it is bad news for me it's something that can be corrected as well. I hope everything goes as planned with your baby girl momma, God bless you 2 ladies, 12 more days to go I bet you can't wait to see her beautiful face!
  • Good luck hun and keep us updated!! Praying for you and baby!
  • Oh yeah I'm very excited! :D keep me updated about your little one. you are in my thought and prayers and I'm sure your baby is just fine :)
  • Thanks so much ladies! <3
  • Praying that everything goes well at your appt.
  • Thanks so much ladies !
