Amniotic Banding??? I need info! ***Update and pic at bottom*

Original post by jcndd

So I just got back from my nuchal testing. I had gone on Thursday but the baby wouldn't cooperate so I had to go back tonight. All is well w/ the baby and the neck measurement looked great, but long story short, there is a questionable line in my uterus that might be amniotic banding. Evidently, amniotic banding occurs when a piece of the placenta gets into the uterus and causes a 'floating membrane' by the baby. The sono tech didn't seem TOO certain that that's what it was, but they're worried enough that they're sending me for a level II sono this week @ Stonybrook. It's hard for me to write, but the worst case scenerio w/ amniotic banding is that the membrane can wrap around a limb and amputate it in utero. If anyone has any info I would appreciate it - otherwise, please just say a wish that it's not that for me.
