This pregnancy has come with a few unexpected turns. Because of the risk of downs syndrome and a larger nuchal translucency measure, I was sent for a fetal echocardiogram to take a closer look at baby’s heart. Even though the wait and uncertainty were overwhelming, the doctor said everything looks good — a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Knowing baby’s heart is healthy gives me the strength to keep moving through the rest of the tests with hope.
