well, after hearing the doctor tell us that our baby boy has 2 "soft" markers for down syndrome on feb 1st... we have FINALLY made it to tomorrow when we will have a fetal echocardiagram of his heart and another u/s to make sure all is well.
dh and i have been stressing so much having to wait a whole freakin month for this!!! on the 1st the doc saw a choroid plexus cyst in the baby's head and also found echogenic foci in the right ventrical of the baby's heart. both are considered to be markers for down syndrome (and the cpc can be associated w/ trisomy 18). but my 1st trimester screen came back good and on the same day they found those everything else (hands, feet, arms, ect...) looked good!
so we are definately hoping that tomorrow they will tell us that everything is ok and we are going to have a perfectly healthy baby boy (our 1st boy after 3 girls!!!). i'll update later tomorrow after i can get back to the computer! and thank you to those of you that i've talked w/ about this before.
