Question

Hi mommies, Im 16w rn, just had my amnio test and my bb is positive for turners syndrome. Is there any mommies who been thru pregnancy/children with turners? I realised there is not much information about turners and hoping to know more first hand experiences #firsttimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls #firstbaby #turnerssyndrome

I havent personally gone through this, but I can imagine how overwhelming it must feel to get this news at 16 weeks, especially as a first-time mum. Since there arent many people in this thread who have shared their experience yet, it would really be worth asking your gynae or a genetic counsellor to refer you to a specialist who can walk you through what to expect, so you have proper guidance from someone who knows your case. Different children with Turner Syndrome can have very different journeys, so getting that one-on-one conversation with a doctor will give you a much clearer picture than general information online. Youre not alone in this, and reaching out here is already a good step.
