So to update on my previous thread we went for our battery of tests this morning.

First there were 6-7 vials of blood taken. I don't know what the tests were as they were in French and I don't know what they are in English hah! After that I had the amnio... So the hospital where I go is a teaching hospital. Sure, I understand that doctors have to learn. Well I had to get poked twice. The resident couldn't get through the membrane. It wasn't pleasant.

After that we had an ultrasound with the pediatric cardiologist to double check her heart. Everything looks perfect.

Now we just have to wait a few days for the preliminary result of the amnio which will be a yes/no for downs. We're remaining positive, but still nervous.
