Prenatal Echocardiogram
I had my prenatal echocardiogram on the baby's heart today and everything looked great! The baby will have another echo at birth do to the risk of a heart defect being 50%, since she has T21. Sadly, it never gets easier seeing her on the ultra sound monitor and I now associate fetal ultra sounds with utter despondency. I'm constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop. Luckily she has been rockn' that extra chromosome and is growing like a weed!

Hugs! I hated ultrasounds during my pregnancy because I so rarely got good news.
ReplyDeleteLuckily things have changed since Lauren arrived almost a year ago- she's doing very well and we almost always get good news now!
Pregnancy with a confirmed diagnosis is hard. Don't forget to give yourself a break!
