Drum roll please.....

And now for the amniocentesis results.... Drum roll please..... it's...... NORMAL! I am amazed! I can't believe it. With all the things this kid has put me through, and the 3 ultrasounds, and the amnio. itself, I'm so HAPPY! I'm in shock. Our last baby is going to be a healthy, baby.... get ready for it.... GIRL! I actually alluded to this fact in one of the previous posts, but I don't know if anyone caught it.
The second geneticist (Joan) who talked to me and David, was the one who broke the news to me (just a few minutes ago). They are still going to run a diagnostic test on something else with the amnio. stuff, but for now, there are no chromosomal problems with this kid! Trisomy 13 and 21 are 'OUT OF HERE'! Woo Hoo! Now if I can just get this kid to be under 9 pounds, that would be incredible! I'm so HAPPY! She's going to be fine. My factory parts are still working enough to get this kid here on this Earth! Yea!
Thank you for all of those who know, and prayed for us to be o.k. It was a real blessing for our family. And I'm especially grateful for my loving husband, David. Who has put up with me for almost 15 years of marriage, and for knowing/being with me for almost 18 years. I love you David, 'Siempre Jamas y un dia' Loosely translated to mean 'Forever and a Day'.

okay i just got caught up on all the posts. joey is SO CUTE! yes, he & chumby would make great friends with each other & probably cause a lot of mischief, huh?:) what a cutie!
anyway, i am glad the amnio went well & that things are normal. i TOTALLY get that feeling about something not feeling normal with a pregnancy. i don't know if it's that when you have more babies you realize what all can go wrong or if something really is wrong. oh the torture we go through! now that you're back on with blogging i will be checking more! keep it up sister!:)
