Could use some good thoughts.

We went in for a 3D ultrasound today, our doctor does them just for fun.  While we were in the room the tech mentioned that the baby had an enlarged ventricle and was going to mention it to the doctor.  When we got into a room with her, she explained that enlarged ventricles are extremely rare, so much so that all she can do is refer us to a specialist.  This could be anything from a small birth hiccup he grows out of with no ill effects to a simple shunt and maybe some mild learning disorders to  major brain damage assuming he survives birth.
Not as fun a day as we anticipated.
According to the doctor we did catch it early, and the only reason we did is because of the 3D ultrasound so that's good.  We had a baby shower last week and I'm kind of falling apart because I'm sitting here surrounded by these things we picked out for him...  
Anyway. 
We're waiting on a call from the specialist to make an appointment.
I could use some positive energy.  We're just trying to stay strong about it (and when I say "we" I mean my husband is being super tough while I cry off and on all day).
