monday i go in for an echo and scan. they found a hole in the baby`s heart and i have the single artery in the cord. so i called today bc they wanted me to see the specialist. The dr didnt really give me much information, and im assuming everything will be fine, but when i called the receptionist wanted me to come in immediatly but i couldnt. do you think her wanting me in right then and there is a bad thing? usually it takes them at least a week to get me in if not two weeks. anyone else had a similar situation that can share details? i couldnt get in til monday bc i wont have my car back til then. im a bit nervous about this. should i expect more testing?

I would wonder about the single artery though. Don't research it yourself, you would probably sit there and get stressed out. I hope that your LO's closes up on its own. Please keep us posted!!! I will be praying for you guys!

nutnut - 868 days ago thankyou. i tried too look it up on the internet, but usually when i do that i either get paranoid, or wrong information lol. thankyou for your reply =)

My daughter is 4 months and has no murmurs. With SAU I think the bug focus is on growth and kidney function. The specialist will look at all of the things associated with single artery. You have my prayers
