Calcium deposit in babies heart?

Hey at 20 weeks I posted that during my anatomy ultrasound they found calcium deposit in my babys heart "bright light" ...I spend most of my pregnancy worried and heart broken  just thinkin of the possibility of having a baby with DS...
Well I'm just updating...
I had my baby boy June 7, 2012 at 12:44am it wasnt an easy labor but it was normal delivery ...I spend 3hrs trying to deliver him...he had his leg and neck tied with the umbilical cord that's why it made it so difficult to get him out that I almost had a c-section...
Anyways...
I had a healthy baby boy 7lbs 14oz / 19.5 in..

Soo if the dr tells you that he found calcium deposit in your baby's heart "bright light" and you don't feel comfortable doing a Amniocentesis don't do it because theres a risk of mc ...I went to the genetic place but I choose not to do the amnio and today I'm a happy mother with a healthy baby boy...

I hope this post helps someone...

Congrats and thank you for sharing at my 20 wk scan they said my daughter has fluid around her heart which could also be ds and I have been freaking out ever since...I go for another u/s in a week to see if things have changed I've been praying for the best and once again I'm so happy for you :))
