I just got a call from Maternal-Fetal specialists to give me the results of my Sequential screen....we are at increased risk for neural tube defect. I have to go back in tomorrow for genetic counseling and another US to get a good look at the baby's spine. I'm sure everything will be fine, but of course the mother in me is freaking out. We've seen the baby's back A LOT because he seems to like to be facing my back, but hopefully we can rule out any problems tomorrow and I can go on being my carefree self. So anyway, just wanted to share......I am so over ultrasounds......
The Knot won't share my Bump Siggy, so here's the low-down:
4/27/07 - Got engaged!
8/31/08 - Got married (to my best friend)!
12/30/08 - Got Pregnant!
9/3/09 - Welcome to the world, Elias Solomon!
8/16/10 - Got Pregnant, again!
5/14/11 - Welcome to the world, Talia Hadassah!
1/14/12 - Ready or not, here comes #3 (EDD 9/27/12)
Re: Cross your fingers for us.....
Good Luck!!!
Congratulations on keep a calm spirit and best of luck to you tomorrow! Hopefully you can rule this out and just enjoy having another peek at your peanut.
I hope everything is ok. Please keep us posted.
Also you better be taking your breaks and getting more to eat :-)

Ugh! I'm sorry to hear you got bad news today, Shosh. We'll all keep your fingers crossed for you that ToBe is fine (as I'm sure he will be). Definitely keep us posted on the results.
On a totally unrelated note - your mom sent me a friend request on FB today - should I be worried?
Thanks for all the crossed fingers...I'm on my way to the US now....
PS Shelly...my mom doesn't really know what she's doing on facebook (trust me, I've tried to help her - it's pointless). She probably thinks she knows you (she knows a lot of my friends). I think I talked about you and Ella while she was visiting. You can ignore her if you want, or I can email her and ask...that's so funny!
