02-4-2008 - Yes, a Bright Side PositiveMy mood while writing this blog:
Positive



March 15, 2008
So, I've switched my attitude from we-have-a-1%-chance to there's-a-99%-chance-the-baby-is-fine. I swear I felt him/her move around on the same day I found out those results. Since trisomy 18 is fatal, we have decided that it doesn't make sense to put our child at greater risk by having an amnio done. A diagnosis from the amnio may help us know for sure if he/she has trisomy 18, but it will not change whether we take this pregnancy to term. So, why bother? We'll just stick with the detailed ultrasound they'll do and hope for the very best.
