Spina Bifida Scare

Last week a got a call from the genetic counselor informing me that some of our blood work showed an increased risk for spina bifida, 1/310 to be exact. We weren't too worried because we know there are a lot of false positives however, we did pray a lot for strenth to except and be able to handle anything that might be special with our little boy. Because I had a positive test they scheduled an ultrasound. I went in today for my ultrasound and everything looked great! It was determind to be a false positive. Despite being on schedule for his first three ultrasounds he is now measuring 6 days ahead. He is about 10 oz and 6.5 inches long.

I am grateful to God that we have been blessed with this healthy baby and we pray that he will continue to grow and flurish!
