Thinking of you and your little man, Momo.



I had my anatomy ultrasound today annnnnnnnnnnnd it's a BOY :blue:! I started crying (happy tears). I didn't have a gender preference, but when we found out I could just imagine having a little boy and it made it feel so much more real!

Beyond that, Paul Thomas is looking healthy and everything looked great. I'm measuring about a week ahead, too!
 
Thank you to each and every one of you ladies. I really appreciate your positive thoughts. :hugs:

Glasspeony- Congrats on your little baby :blue: !

So we had our 20 week scan. Baby is still a boy and he has all his fingers, toes, and organs.

Bad news! His head isn't wide enough. he is measuring 19+3 and his head is only measuring 17+3. They said it isn't wide enough and can cause inter cranial pressure once he is born because his skull is too small for his brain. they said it is also a sign of a couple rare genetic disorders. They are scheduling me to see a specialist this coming week. Please pray for my little man. I am so scared for him!

Lots of prayers for you momofone, and congrats on the blue bundle glass peony. This time is so stressful for all of us!!

Basically when they do anatomy scans they look for soft markers and hard markers that may indicate something like Down syndrome or trisomy. Hard markers are more scary because they are more likely to indicate a problem, whereas soft markers are things that are more common in babies with abnormalities but not unheard of in healthy babies. So if they find a bunch of soft markers, they might do amino or further testing to see if it could be something serious but it could mean nothing. They found 1 soft marker on my LO, a spot on her heart. They said she could have it until birth but be healthy and it won't effect her, it could go away in 3rd tri, or it could mean she has a problem. Since there was only 1 marker and it was soft, chances of it being serious are slim. But not impossible. So it's scary. :(
 
Congrats on finding out, glasspeony!

Oh, no, sorry to hear you received bad news, momofone. :hugs: Will be thinking of you and your little boy and hoping you get an appointment and more information very soon.
