Blood Test Results Came in Dr. Needs to See Me Right Away!

A., I don't remember all the things they check for, at that time. It could be the Alfa-Fetal Protein (MFAFP), right? Yes, HIV is one of the first tests. The best advice I can give you is: What is, IS. You can worry yourself sick tonight and you'd NEVER guess what it is. Too many possibilities - one being that you may be further along than you thought. You have to get some rest tonight. Take a bath, light a candle, and relax. Nothing has changed. Don't panic until there's news.

It sounds like something could be wrong...try to stay in the now and just keep faith. Listen to the Dr. and see what he has to say. Unless they tested specifically for HIV, it is probabley something else. Remember you are a women with choices and the Dr. will not guide you wrong and you can also get a 2nd opinion. Try not to worry to much, it may not be serious at all.....stay in the now and stay strong.

Best of luck - M.

Hi A. - I know you must be scared... take a long deep breath and think positively. It could be many things, not all of which are detrimental. The good news is that whatever it is, your doctors are on top of it. I wish you the very best. What I CAN help you with is giving your baby a health advantage in the womb.

I heard a speaker recently who talked all about health and nutrition. I was blown away by the pregnancy study results. If I can get my hands on the chart she showed, I'll email it to you. Basically, it compared pregnant women that took nothing, pregnant women who took prenatal vitamins, and those who took both prenatal vitamins AND Juice Plus. When measuring the incident rate of several conditions (miscarriage, low birth weight, preclampsia and several others), the patients taking both prenatal vitamins and Juice Plus had none of these conditions and their babies were born healthier! So make sure you are taking both prenatals and Juice Plus daily.

It could be a number of things, twins if the hormone levels are very high, threatened miscarriage if the hormones are too low, they may just want to do an ultrasound to confirm how far along you are (based on the hormone levels), they may want you to go in for genetic counseling. Try to remain calm. They did the same thing to me, only they told me I had to go see a specialist. I had no idea what was "wrong" for 2 days. The specialist said they found a "white spot" on the ultrasound and wanted to do an amnio (because I was 35) and he would follow my pregnancy for the duration. It turns out that "white spot" was just a calcification inside his live. Maybe a blood vessel bled a little while he was being formed and then hardened. It has caused zero problems. Even if there is something, there is so much available in medical advancement, there might be something they can do if they catch it early. I also had gestational diabetes and had to take insulin. In other words, everything that went "wrong" in my pregnancy was still carefully monitored and completely under control. Please let us know what happens at your appointment.

Hi -- Glad you got that handled! Now that you will be going though pregnancy -- best book is "Let's Have Healthy Children" by Adelle Davis. Her advices work. I followed that book on my first pregnancy, had minimal morning sickness and gave birth to a beautiful girl with very even facial features, her teeth grew in straight, never needed braces, and it was an easy birth. Adelle Davis shows drawings of baby's faces with different vitamin deficiencies then the face of her daughter which was perfectly balanced -- so was my daughter's face. I also slept between contractions, didn't tear, didn't need an episiotomy (however it's spelled), and I turned 31 the day after she was born. As I was older and not particularly physically fit, I am sure her recommendations worked. Have a great pregnancy. Best, K. S.

Hi A.,
I can't give you an answer to your question, but make sure your husband is going with you to the doctor to support you and help ask the doctor any questions. 2 minds work better than one. Trust your doctor and know that these days there is alot they can do to help whatever that may be. I wish you the best.
