scared young mom

[vvolanos]

I am 20 years old and about 23 weeks and I had my first ultra sound, they told me that my baby didnt move enough and that they suspect a cleft lip, and that the heart is tilted(?) with some fuild around it, they also had a hard time seeing the stomach they said it was really small. they also said they couldnt get good pics because the baby wouldnt move. they also said there was a possibily of a syndrome or losing the baby before birth

Was just curious because both those things could be many different disorders. Did you do the blood draw for chromosome disorders a few weeks ago? I ask because my baby was positive for Trisomy 18 with the blood draw & I did A LOT of research on it. With the Level 2 ultrasound it was ruled out thank God. I hope they are wrong about your little one. Prayers to you.

they didnt tell me was syndrome ive been reading up on the internet what the doc said and its procedure(?) to check for chomosomal sydromes and defficancy with a tilted heart and fluid around the heart.

Did they tell you what the syndrome was? Are they going to do a more detailed ultrasound?

On my last ultrasound, my little boy hardly moved at all. They had me walk, turn on my side, drink water, everything to make him move but he just stayed in the same spot. Maybe your baby was just sleeping? It's not uncommon for babies to not move during ultrasounds.

I don't have any experience with this, other than my little girl has hardly moved at ALL in any of my ultrasounds, other than a finger flick here and there, and she's completely fine, so lack of movement I can't see being an issue. I hope everything turns out good for you hun!
