Any info. on u/s that show calcification on baby's heart?

Question

I am 27 yrs. old and 19 wks. pregnant. I had an u/s done that showed small calcification on baby's heart. Still have not gotten results back from quad screen, but I am already worried. Dr. says most of the time this is normal, but it can indicate Down Syndrome. Can anyone relate to this or does anyone have more info.? I am told not to worry but I can't help it.

Answer 1

Most of the time it's fine, but it is true that many babies with Downs have this calcification on the heart. Either way it usually doesn't impact the baby's life at all.
