lol thanks
It's just hard to be optimistic... I'm glad my level 2 was moved til monday , although that wasn't done bc he was worried about the cysts, he was just worried about my mental state. so I think i can get through the weekend and I'll breathe ok if they say everything else looks ok.

And I agree with you Spinning!!! You should be in the 98% that doesn't have to worry about this. You've had your share...enough is enough!!! I'm sorry.

Spinning, I read about these cysts on the ultrasound board on Babycentre and the tech there said they dont even consider these a marker anymore as they seem to becoming more common and dont lead to any future concerns so unless they were coupled up with other things she wouldnt even worry about them. Not sure if that makes you feel any better about things but I wanted to tell you. Huge hugs, Im sure your little girl will be just fine. If you can, go do something nice for yourself to take your mind off of things for a little bit xx

Jheitz - Congrats on a healthy baby boy!! Im sorry you didnt hear girl hon, I hope you're doing ok xx

A friend of mines daughter had those cysts and they actually took even longer than "usual" to clear up. And she is a very healthy, rambunctious toddler now (heck, she bests all of our same-age sons...running circles around them!). Her doc told her they are becoming more common because ultrasounds are coming so far in regards to what they can see. Back five years ago, they were a lot less clear and what might be seen as a cyst today was only seen as a variance on the screen back then. I would be worried to, because it is in my nature to be worried (if you couldn't already tell). But I do believe they are common (and I think somewhere I read they are even more common in girls for some reason...dunno where I heard/read that though).

Anyway...I found out a lot of my discomfort today was from a blossoming UTI. I started to have some radiating back pain and burning, so I went to the "walk in" place. Confirmed UTI. So I hope some of the pains subside and I can relax again. It's true I have no reason to believe anything is wrong with this baby/pregnancy. It's so hard for me to remember.

Well she's definitely still a girl.
However my friend wanted to warn me , even though she knows it common, since I will hear at my level 2 next week, that she has choroid plexus cysts on her brain, anyone familiar with this?

Hey spinning...my dd 3 had the same thing at my 19 week ultrasound....I freaked out and cried for days....and then started praying and believing she would be fine. Praise God....by my ultrasound to check back at 24 weeks the cysts were gone. Needless to say, she is 2 now and has been and is perfectly healthy....nothing wrong with her brain for sure...she's too smart for her own good. My doc had told me not to panic as it does happen sometimes and typically resolves by 24 to 28 weeks but who can tell a mom not to worry about such a thing. I'll be praying they disappear and she has a perfect report next time.

So they didn't pressure you to do an amnio? Thats what dh is worrying about , extra tests for no reason

I gave my mom her Christmas card immediately at the airport... signed "LOVE, Ned, Gena, Otis, & Willow"
Her reaction was priceless!
