Scared need Prayers for my baby
posted on 07/31/2007

Got a call today from my Dr that stated that my Quad Test came back that I have a 1/10 chance of my baby having a open Spina Bifida. I was told they were going to wait until September to schedule a Level II ultrasound for further testing.

But I got a call this afternoon that they want me to see a genetics counselor and have a 2-3rd trimester ultrasound tomorrow and then the level II and a fetal eco cardio test in September.

I'm don't know where to turn to. I'm scared and don't have anyone to talk to besides Dh and he isn't saying much.

I'm a type II Diabetic  and they said that might have something to do with the SB. I know there are false positives and I'm just praying this is one.

Tomorrow won't come to soon. We have to leave here at 6:30 am in the morning to drive to Minneapolis so that I can see the specialist. So that 2 1/2 hr drive will be hard.

I'm ok with whatever the outcome is because this baby is a miracle for us after TTC for 8 yrs.
