Re: It ain't easy being green! UPDATED 5/29
dont worry jess...if everything else looked fine and all you have is a soft marker that i wouldnt stress. they found (in the dr's words) a VERY soft marker at my level 2 which was some fluid backed up in the ureters. they told me that soft markers usually cure themselves before the baby's even born.
stay team green! its more fun this way!

Re: It ain't easy being green! UPDATED 5/29
My perfectly healthy 22 month old daughter had that white spot on her heart...also called an echogenic cardiac focus. She is fine! It really is nothing, and combined with the absence of any other markers for Downe's, your odds of the child having Downe's have probably even gone down...better odds! Don't worry! I know, easier said than done, but my dr said he has NEVER seen a single baby with a cardiac focus turn out to have DS.
I am 7 months pregnant with #2 and now they found 2 choroid plexus cysts on her brain. After going for my Level II, the SAME DR who discussed the cardiac focus with me w/dd #1 told me that the cysts have already shrank, 1 was gone and the other was tiny and that the technology is so advanced that the machines see so much more than they used to. The dr said that odds are that ALL babies have these at some point or another in their development. After my level II, my odds of anything wrong with DD #2 have gone DOWN...so I feel MUCH more relaxed now....
Your baby will be fine!

So sorry you got that news and have this little scare. I have no experience or knowledge of it but as I've read in a few replies, it seems a common thing that baby will easily overcome. Keep positive and healthy!

My ds had the spot on his heart as well. It resolved itself. We went for a fetal echo at about 24 weeks and his heart was perfect. he was born perfect and is now a completely healthy and very active 16 month old

They saw the same soft marker when I had my 20 week u/s. I went to the perinatologist and he said it was very common to find these markers, and since the rest of the u/s was good, and all my blood work was fine that there was nothing to worry about. He said I had 99.9% chance that even with this soft marker that the baby would be born healthy. He said it usually resolves itself.
