Healthy Baby!

Had the fetal echo today and am happy to say that no abnormalities were found, including no VSD.

So happy!  Hoping that everything goes smoothly for the next 17 weeks or so.

Anatomy Scan

Anatomy scan at 20+4 came out clear, everything looked good, with one possible exception...  there *might* be a VSD in Emerson's heart.

A VSD is a small hole in the septum.  Dr Cazan made me promise not to freak out.  She said that she's not even sure there is one and even if there is, its not unusual and usually closes on its own before birth or shortly after.  She has referred me to a specialist who will hopefully be able to get a better look.  Emerson was not cooperating during the anatomy scan and did not get into a position where Dr. Cazan's equipment could get a really good look at the septum.

I'm trying my best to stay positive.  It's not a life threatening dx, even if true.  Luckily, my appointment with the specialist is on 10.28, so not much longer to wait.

Fingers and toes crossed.
