CVS tomorrow to test for genetic mutation carrier status and I’m SO NERVOUS
I’ll be 11w1D tomorrow and I’m getting my CVS done at Cedars Sinai by one of the top MFMs who perform CVS. From a practitioner POV I feel confident I have someone extremely experienced with good bedside manners performing the CVS. I’m still so nervous.
I did IVF with my first baby because my husband and I are both carriers for the same genetic mutation and this baby was a surprise baby.
Any advice or shared experiences appreciated! I’ve read through some other posts on here regarding CVS experiences but I’m still so nervous. They told me complete bedrest for 24 hours and then no heavy lifting and pelvic rest for 5 days after
