Having problems with message search?
I had a baby with anencephaly in 2000 and went on to have 3 healthy babies after her. They monitored me more closely with my subsequent pregnancies. They say taking folic acid helps decreaase chances but I was taking it before I got pg with my first daughter. It is scary knowing that something can be wrong you are afraid to let your heart get broken again but odds are in your favor all will be fine.

I have a 17 year old daughter of whom gave birth to a beautiful little
girl last August,she had Anencephaly and passed on.This was a big loss
to us all,most of all my daughter as she is still a child in my eyes
herself.She has found out recently that she is pregnant again,i am so
worried for her rushing into things so fast but all i can do is be
there for her at this time.She is 6 weeks into her pregnancy,can
anyone give me any advice to tests that may be taken early as i know
that the chances of giving birth to another child with the same
condition is higher.I just want to ease things as much as i can,due to
her experience with the hospital she gave birth in was not good.Any
help or advice would be great.thankyou in advance xx
