Well that was a "chance" meeting that was meant to be. Funny sometimes what the universe sends us just when we need it. That's some pretty encouraging information and echos much of what a few others have been saying. Good to watch and see what is developing so that an expectant mother can be prepared and counseled beforehand if need be.
And of course you're still worried. This is where it starts and will never end for you and your child's lifetime together!
The amnio was an experience in itself and presented a whole other adventure for me, but did reassure me once the test results were back. However it was just one of the many conversations I would have with my daughter before she was born. I was watching the monitor and could see where they were inserting the needle. Darn curious baby started to move too closely to the needle so they had to pull it out and reinsert. I told her to be still and leave that thing alone!
After the second insertion, she did.
Good girl.
I also agree it would be best for you to have your mind put at rest so you can enjoy your pregnancy. Once most of our initial testing was done I was fairly laid back right up to her C-secton birth. I had one of the calmest, sweetest babies ever who loved to cuddle, napped for 3 hours at a time, and slept through the night at just 5 weeks.
It's about time you and your little baby girl started enjoying the "honeymoon" phase of your pregnancy. We'll all be waiting to hear what happens on Tuesday.
Thank you! I doubt they can get me into Wenatchee for an amino before the 28th (which is my next ultrasound) --so I might schedule it for May or something and cancel it if the heart issue has resolved by the ultrasound. Who knows? I think after all the crap I've been reading and how little sleep I'm getting--I will probably ask for it ASAP and just pray to God everything is okay.
