Lupus moms.
I'm 12 weeks 4 days and I went in for the genetic testing but I changed my mined I decided not to know, it doesn't matter to me my baby will always be perfect to me, well the text still did the ultrasound and measured the spine an said the baby is at low risk but they can still do more testing to be sure I still said no, I was relieved to hear all that but then the doctor came in and I have Lupus on my skin, it's less dangerous then Lupus in the blood an well now the doctor said that my antigens can attack the baby's heart AV node an ill be seeing him again once I'm 18weeks and then after that every week once a week for an ultrasound :( he said I'm in the 98% chance of the baby being unharmed. But I still think that's a lot of ultrasounds an it's making me worried. I don't know what to do.
A lot of women have to be monitored like that so I wouldn't worry about the amount of ultrasounds they give you. And I hope the best for you and baby
its a chronic diseases that effects your immune system, and yea that's true I just hope it doesn't cause problems to the baby
What's Lupus? It is a lot especially since I heard they're not that great for baby but it's best to stay monitored
