Omg ok i was tested today for the genetic problems lik down syndrome and stuff and the lady was trying to see on the ultrasound the skin or hair on the baby neck and the baby was being sooo difficult and turned head down so now im nervous :(

The same thing happened to me too, where my baby wouldnt cooperate, and now im 36 weeks amd she's right where she needs to be! If all of the baby's measurements are where they need to be, i wouldnt worry. They will simply get the measurement at your next ultrasound. Im a worrier,  and my mom always tells me not to worry until I. have too.

She's talking about the ultrasound test which measures the back of the neck and checks the nose for abnormalities. Not an amniocentesis. Babies don't become paralyzed from the ultrasound tests

I don't know why they do this kind of test sometimes the baby can become paralyzed.  I didn't let the doctors do any of this testing on my baby. This is because I knew i, was going to have my baby regadless.

I thought they looked for fluid near the base of the scull/ top of the spine to assess down syndrome risk?
