I had an ultrasound at 20 weeks and it showed echogenic foci. When I was in the doctors office I was under the impression that it was a heart defect. I got home and did some research about it and found it could be an indication of Down's Syndrome. Now I am worried sick. Why didn't my doctor discuss this further with me? All she said is that she will do another us at my 3rd trimester. That is 2 months. I cannot wait that long. I am sure stress and worry are not good for the baby. Do any of you know of any other test that I can take, besides an amnio. I do not want to have that done. I am going to call the dr. office on Monday to see but if any of you have had this please, I would love to hear your input. TIA
