Hi, does anyone have any experience with suspected sketal displacia at their 20 weeks scan.

They found some anomalies on my scan and said his limbs were short and his chest looks small. They've given my baby a very slim chance of survival.

They've offered me a amniocentesis which I had today. Does anyone else have any experience of this good or bad?

I'm praying that it isn't the severe sketal displacia they have said it is.

I'm so sorry that you are going through this. I can't answer your question, but wanted to try to.give your post a boost, in the hope that somebody else can.
