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.
