So tomorrow is a big day and I am feeling lots of anxiety
Tomorrow at 2:30 I have my level 2 sono. Most people would be excited, but after they found 2 soft markers for downs at my AFP sono this apt is a big one. 2 things can happen tomorrow. 1. They see that the femur lengths grew and the pinky finger bone is fine and they do not see any other markers that would make them suspect downs (all my blood work from NT and AFP came back perfect) 2. The soft markers are still there and/or they see other markers that were not seen a few weeks ago.
If #2 happens, I will be scheduling an amnio for either tomorrow or wednesday hopefully to know for sure.
After a TON of research, I have learned that the biggest markers for downs are not the ones they saw on my LO and the femur length should only be considered a marker if its below the 5% and mine were in the 20%. So I do feel confident but I am so scared for the results.
I do believe in the power of prayer, so if you could all maybe take a few seconds and say a prayer for my LO tonight it would mean so much to me and DH. Thank you

I have a feeling you will be getting good news!!! I'm glad you were able to move your appointment up so you can get the stress of it out of the way and move on!!

Good luck! It sounds like you have a lot going on in your favor. I know you are nervous about tomorrow, but at least you can get through it and not have to continue stressing.
Re: So tomorrow is a big day and I am feeling lots of anxiety
you will be fine- your NT scan was good and so was your bloodwork? right
From experience the femurr bone and pinky really do not mean much - mine were perfect- but The baby still had downs- The amnio will absoutley tell you whats going on- good luck to you
