Babies heartbeat is a good 155. My weight, blood pressure, etc are good. I had blood drawn to finish off some of the genetic testing. It is called a quad test. These screening values combined with my first trimester screening values give me an idea of a possible genetic disorder, this time it includes neural tube defects. I started out with a 1:100 chance of a genetic disorder due to my age. After the first round of screening tests my chance was 1:3100 and even less of a chance for Trisomy 18 (1:10,000) YAY!! They will combine all the screening tests to come up with a new at risk value. Anyway, I am hopeful everything will come back great. These tests are only screens and aren't diagnostic, but I like knowing things are pointed in the healthy direction.
We have decided to find out the sex of baby Hahm. This appt is set for May 13th...Friday the 13th... should I be worried about finding this out on freaky Friday???
The only bad news (which wasn't bad) was that my sore thigh muscles during sleep are definitely normal and here to stay. My pelvic area and tendons are to blame... this is when I wish I was more like gumby or plastic man. Owell.
