18 Week Test Results

I had my 18week visit with the neonatologist today and got my test results back from when I had the transnuchal sono test done to see if the baby woul have Down's or not,and it turns out as far as the sonographer said, the numbers were too low for the baby to have Down's so the Test came back Negative!! Oh what a relief! he still wanted to know whether I wanted to go for the amnio to make sure, I said if I didn't absolutely need it, and my odds were increased with age of having a miscarriage-and the sonogram already proved that the baby didnt have downs then why look a gift horse in the mouth and play with fire? I didn't deem it necesssary would you do it? So we did another extensive sonogram today to see how the baby was growing, and and he could see the sex of the baby... and boy was He not shy! yes , that's what I said , HE! Legs were spread like an eagle for everyone to see his manhood! LOL stickinup floatin in the breeze! DS got his wish for a baby brother afterall- he told his teacher last week he was having a baby brother, and his teacher congradulated me on my new son. I was like????? I said I have no idea what the sex is so my son must be Pshychic I told her! LOL apparently so because today we found out for the first time we were having another boy! Add some more testosterone to the household! there goes my princess nursery ... -just kidding-i dont mind either way- as far as the sonographer could tell, this baby is as healthy as a horse! The doctor wants an echocardiogram done just to see how his heart is reacting to my seizure meds. Other than that he's doing just fine. I see my regular OB this friday.I think to find out about my alpha feta protein test - the sonographer couldnt understand why that was oredered when the nuchal fold test was ordered .He ,-said it was a waste of money but whatever-, guess to make sure. Thats my update on my tests as of lately. Thought Id share- heres some pics of my not so shy lil guy. as for names- still kickin some around-like Brendan Michael, Aidan Matthew,etc..- I write them down for DH and he just smiles and nods and walks away or comes up with disney character movie names- he's totally not helping and joking around when I'm trying to be serious- this might take a while ... anyway, heres the not so shy lil guy..enjoy!
