Hi Ladies, Last Tuesday I had a sonogram and found out we are having our 7th boy. I guess my daughter will be the only girl at this point anyway. My Dr called to tell me that they saw a spot on his heart muscle called an echogenic cardiac focus (mouthful) .This is a marker for a possible genetic disorder Possibly Downs Syndrome. They did not find any other markers so it is highly unlikely that a problem exsist however bieng a nurse and a mom has made me darn near histericle at times and this is my husbands busy season and he isn"t around adding to my stress. Tomorrow at 8 am is my test it is also my Birthday and I am trying to feel confident that I will get the graetest gift ever and all will be well. Sorry this is so long. It is really out of charecter for me to be this anxious.

Praying! Many hugs - I remember the jitters before going in for our own fetal echo.
