I had my NT scan yesterday and everything looks good with the baby. Measuring right on time and the fluid looked good. Spine and brain looked normal and the baby had two arms and two long legs. Also, I told the genetic counselor that I had the verifi test done and she said she would call the doctor's office to see if the results were in so we could go over that too. They were and all of those results came back negative! (in a good way). Apparently my doctor ordered the extended panel so it tested for a bunch of different chromosomal abnormalities along with the main 4 (trisomy 21,18,13, and XXY). I'm so relieved and finally accepting that this might actually happen. I'll be 12 weeks tomorrow so I'm past the main chance of miscarriage. I know things can still happen and I probably won't stop worrying until, well probably never, but it's good news and I'll take it.
This hasn't been the best year for us in general. It seems like every time we run across a situation where we could get good news or bad news, we get the bad news. So, this was a big deal for us yesterday. I really appreciate all of the support you guys have given me and I'm not sure i would have so many people in real life that would understand this.
Oh yeah, and it's another BOY!!!!! I'm so thrilled.
ETA: I just realized I should have probably put this in the preggly talk thread. Sorry about that.
