    When I was four my mom was pregnant with my little sister and my mom and dad went to an ultrasound appointment where they told them that they saw fluid on her brain. They of course did not tell me that and they didn’t even tell me her name. The next morning my mom said I woke up and went to them and said that an angel cane to me and told me that bailey would be okay and they were so surprised because I knew nothing about it. When they went into their next ultrasound they told them that the fluid was gone and now my little sister is 18 and she has a tiny little bald spot in her hairline and we say that’s where the angel took the fluid out.

    After 7 miscarriages and a septate uterine surgery, I finally got pregnant and had my three boys. When I had my 20 week ultrasound with my first born, the girl doing the scan asked me if I was planning on getting an amnio. I don’t think they are supposed to tell you anything but she said it so matter of fact and it really bothered me. I then had a meeting with the doctor and he told me my son had a weird space at the base of the brain that was much bigger than it should be. He also told me my baby had short limbs which were soft indicators of Down syndrome. Let’s just say this ruined the next 20 weeks of my pregnancy, and I was a basket case the entire time. Fast forward 17 years and my son is graduating high school as the valedictorian. Praying for you.

    I know someone who went through something similar. She was told that there was something wrong with the baby’s head at a 20 week ultrasound. The doctors tried to convince her to terminate her pregnancy because “the baby would be born a vegetable”. Her daughter was born as healthy as could be! She had an extra skin growth on the base of her neck, almost like a mole, that she had removed a few days after birth. She is now 4 years old and PERFECT! Keep your head up and have faith! ❤️

    Lauren,
    I am praying for you. My heart hurts knowing how worried you both feel and how hard it is to just wait around. But here’s a positive story: my sister in law was expected to be severely disabled because her brain did not look right. My mother in law had to wait months to find out if this baby would be okay, the dr even recommended she terminate. But she didn’t want to.
    By the next ultrasound the issue with her brain was completely gone. She was born a healthy baby girl and is now a 26 year old beautiful and smart and healthy woman! Keep the faith. Thinking of you all. 💕

    My heart goes out to you. We started receiving scary news when I was pregnant with Finn... after 9 years of infertility it was traumatic to hear this. He wasn’t growing fast enough. They put me on bedrest and for some reason at an ultrasound I went into labor, my water broke and Finn was born at 24weeks & 4 days. BUT GOD! Miraculously he survived after almost loosing him 3 different times and is at Nemours in Orlando. We too are thankful to live near such amazing hospitals. He was due September 6th, so he still had a little while to go. I am praying for your sweet girl and for your minds to continually be renewed. May the enemy’s lies be shut down in the name of Jesus. ❤️ Darcy WILL live!

Dr came in and said she was missing connective tissue between her cerebellum and said worst case she will have DandyWalker Syndrome.. look it up it’s quite scary and then they said it could be nothing. I went back a month later they said tissue is there but not fully connected... went back a month later and all was ok. I know it’s hard to not think the worst because of your past.

    At my 20 week ultra sound with my Third child there was a shadow on her heart and her left kidney was enlarged. The specialist said she would probably have downs syndrome. They offered an amniocentesis and he knew doctors that would perform an abortion that far along. I nearly hyperventilated in the office. Needless to say my baby is 2 and beautiful and healthy. Praying for you!

    Had something similar like this where I was told on that scan that something was wrong with baby. First with my son 8 years ago and then with my daughter who will be 3. We were given the option of amniocentesis but we chose not to do it and instead focused on what we could do as parents to keep us together. I was an emotional wreck and couldn’t hold myself together. My husband and I just looked at each other in front of about 6 specialists at that hospital and told them we would be ok with whatever outcome God had in store for us. They told us this with my son which broke me cuz he’s my first.. Then to hear it again with our daughter. As cliche as this sounds, do not give up and know that I’ll be praying for y’all! We serve an amazing God and know that with him nothing is impossible! Keep your head up high and know that everything will be ok!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Ive been freaking out ever since and have had the worst anxiety and depression over it. They said it usually corrects itself but I just have to wait until my 3rd trimester scan and that feels like a life time away. I guess all I can really do is trust my doctors and hope they're doing all they can do. I'm so sorry you're going through this it's honestly the most heart wrenching thing to go through.

    Thank you for sharing your vulnerability through this! I totally understand where you are coming from! I had 5 miscarriages, then got pregnant with quadruplets and had a miserable pregnancy and was on hospital bed rest for a month and ultimately ended up going into labor and delivering at 23 weeks and all four passed away! We know that we lost our babies to help others. We then went through IVF and got pregnant with twins and lost one twin at 13 weeks but now have a beautiful 3 year old son! I love yalls faith! Hold tight to that! Because last year after giving up on having another baby I got spontaneously pregnant with a baby girl! God has a plan for y’all and for your story! You have a right to run away and disconnect! But please know that your story will change lives! Got bless y’all! I will definitely be praying for y’all! And I am hear if you just need to talk.

    My heart goes out to you both! 💗 I went through a similar experience 2 years ago with my first baby. At our 20 week scan we didn’t expect anything bad and the tech was acting strange & the doctor came in later with the devastating news that our baby had anencephaly & that her skull did not form & she had only 2 heart chambers. I cried hysterically & it didn’t feel real to us. I went into labor at 27 weeks & our Angel was stillborn. I am now currently 12 weeks with our second & This time around I’m more worried & just hoping my upcoming appointment goes well and baby is healthy.

    I'm praying for you and the baby. I was 20 weeks and they told me they seen a spot on her brain. I needed an amniocentesis. I was devastated....I had to wait 7 days for the amnio results...she was ok. But I still had to wait to see if my next ultrasound was ok. My kayla is now 13yrs old. The smartest wittiest little firecracker. God bless you guys

    I was born with Spina Bifida Occulta and a strange lump on my back. Doctors didn’t know if I’d ever be able to walk or have bowel and bladder function. Imagine if the ultrasound lead my parents to abort or make a wrong decision? I’d not have grown to be a dancer, RN and mother of 2 girls! I’m now 41yo.
    Never lose hope 🙏🏼

I’m 22 weeks pregnant right now also with a cute baby girl, and as a mommy to be who has JUST gone through the exact same scan, I can totally imagine the worries and fear and you and your husband are going through right now. I just wanted you to know that you are well supported in this tough journey. I just prayed for you and your baby ! May our Heavenly Father protect and bless your child and may this journey of yours become a testimony of His immense love and faithfulness!!!!

    Sending you hugs and prayers. In 2016 I had gotten pregnant with my 4th baby everything was good up until my 30th week ultrasound. I felt like my whole world came crumbling down they told us she had hydrops and only a 20% survival rate. We went to labor and delivery that same day checked in waited for the MFM until next morning. She reviewed our case and was giving a 0% survival rate. We decided to deliver her via emergency csection she only lived for 55 minutes and passed away in my arms. 12 months later we found out we are pregnant again but I was into my 2nd trimester when we found out. We had Doctor appointments every week until I gave birth to my rainbow baby girl. I definitely know your pain. Prayers sent your way.

    My son in Utero showed extra fluid on his ventricles in his brain which indicated developmental delay and we were offered a termination, but we hung on and had scan after scan. Our baby’s duodenum wasn’t joined to his small intestine, and so at birth needed a life saving operation so he cld feed. He also needed a tracheotomy at 14 months as he couldn’t breath . He’s 19 yrs old nw and perfectly normal.
    I pray ur pregnancy is going to be ok. Hang on in there, and never give up. So sorry to see u so sad and upset. I’ve been there and understand how scary it all is, and the waiting is so painful and frightening . Sending you healing wishes and love 💐🌸🌹🌈🙏🏼😘🇬🇧

Tons of fluid in the neck and brain according to the ultrasound. So many scary outcomes that could happen if I didn’t abort. He was born completely healthy, 9.13 lbs, and 22 inches long. He is THRIVING. Continue to have faith and stay in prayer. Praying for you guys. 🥰💕

    ❤️✨Oh sweetie, I’m so sorry you have to go through this. This video showed up as a suggested video for me and I somehow felt an instant connection. I’m not much of a prayer but that’s all I’ve done since watching. Never apologize for crying and please don’t think you’re being dramatic. All we ever want is for our kids to be safe and healthy and if something jeopardizes either of those, we as parents have no rules to our reactions. I’m so sorry that you have to wait for answers when you should just be able to enjoy every second of pregnancy. I hope you both find some comfort and peace in your prayers. Wishing you all the best❤️

With that pregnancy I was told my baby had fluid on the back of the neck and I had a 1 in 200 percent chance of her having down syndrome. We cried. We prayed. Our thoughts were all over the place. But today she is 16 months old, beautiful, healthy and thriving!! Keeping your family in our thoughts.

    I know EXACTLY how you feel. I am currently 25 weeks pregnant and during my 20 week scan the doctor told me that my daughters head is “somewhat” scaphocephalic. Doctors have to use these kind of terms so that they don’t get sued but they also HAVE to tell us if they doubt anything. I literally had my 3rd ultrasound done last week and still have not found out what is up with her head. It has been 5 weeks of worrying so far. I’m praying for you and really hope that we both have healthy happy babies!

    At 20 weeks I was told there was a shadow on my baby’s brain... which ended up being a cyst? I had to wait for referrals and go through so many hoops to figure it all out. They got the point where a few months later they said Her Brain was bleeding. I was in so much stress and worried so much bc every appt it was no news or worse news. Somehow at 30 weeks they did an mri, and she was perfectly fine!!!! Sometimes when you’re small the ultrasound pics up differently, that’s what they told me...?
    But baby is ok! And I’m praying yours is too! I know how you feel.

      Same with me! They said the same thing about “water” or “fluid” in my babies brain they sent me to a sonographer specialist and when they checked it was perfectly fine. A lot of times the doctor just needs a 2nd opinion or the baby needs to grow more in order for them to see clearly. Praying for your little one!

    I myself was born with a condition on the brain and I am 100% fine and fully fully functional.

    I'm so sorry for what you're feeling. We lost our baby to anencephaly. My doctor suggested a medical abortion but we chose an early birth to meet her and also wanted to be able to donate all her perfectly functioning organs to newborns in need of an organ to survive. I felt her kicking on her way out of my birth canal upon arriving. Then upon grabbing her to lay her on my chest I sensed it, my other half also had this sallow look on his face because he knew her heart stopped. He is very sensitive and in connection to spirit realm at all times. He said he saw my mom, my Godmother my uncle and both sets of grandparents who all transitioned over, standing all around me while giving birth and felt a hand upon his shoulder that was a touch of comfort in which he explained had immediately told him she didn't make it. He just has this sense of knowing things and that day he got that message. Our doctor looked up at him in dis belief of what he had said and then confirmed it. We gave her the name Philomena after the patron saint of babies, because if she wasn't going to be coming home with us then we wanted her spirit to be welcomed in her presence and to reside in her loving arms for all eternity in the kingdom of heaven. Lots of healing prayers for your heart and for both of your peace of mind. Remember God makes no mistakes... Trust, believe and keep faith. 💞
