Well, we had our anatomy scan yesterday at the MFM. It's a boy, and we couldn't be more excited.. Of course, we would be excited if the baby were a girl too, but it is nice to know that we will have one of each.
Everything looks good for the most part. The baby is growing well and has all his parts.. but they find a soft marker for Downs. Well it could be a soft marker for Downs, or an indication that I have had the CMV virus at some point during this pregnancy. Since with either there is nothing that can be down, we have continued to decline testing. What they found was a little extra fluid around a ventricle of the brain. The level is within the normal range of <10 mm. The measurement was 8mm.. so it really is just a watch and see.
We were through this before with Katelyn. On her first ultrasound she had 2 soft markers that were watched and they went away..
After doing a little research, yes it is still in the back of my mind, the odds are in baby boy's favor that all will be good.
