Todays Appointment




was scared of the scan today cos Sunshine had been a bit quiet yesterday but think he's having a growth spurt, not been so quiet today lol back to little elephant thumping around.
anyway we had a wee chat 1st about the Y chromo query, he said they don't know exactly what it is BUT it was only found when they got right to the bottom of the genes in it, he says they strip them way way way down and he said that it could be the same for him or me if they stripped our genes down that far, that something could show but yet it doesnt mean anythin so they are'nt too concerned with it, i'm just glad it wasnt a problem right at the top of the genes, that the problem is so far back it probably doesnt mean anything or affect anything.
then we got some lovely views of Sunshine and he done some measurements, i keep worrying what if hes not growin etc, but all the measurements were spot on for gestation and we got a lovely willy shot lol
we got 2 face pics as well but they're not great ya have to tilt them to the side to make out his face.

and the best bit was the scan report:
Skull.....Normal
Brain and Ventricles....Normal
HEART.......NORMAL 4 CHAMBER VIEW
Diaphragm.....Diaphragmatic Hernia....Stomach in the Thorax

so good to have the heart thing on paper, to know he doesn't also have the same heart problems as Nathan did and so good to know chromos are ok and its only the 1 complication he has even though it's serious.

he also talked about Nathan as well, was 'good' to hear him confirming that he had no chance as they had all agreed his heart was in such a bad mess it was unrepairable. good in the sense that since all this i've been questioning myself over maybe we should have given Nathan a chance, but truth is he had no chance to give, that's hard knowing he didnt and Sunshine has, just keep thinking maybe it's not fair, but as long as Sunshine has a chance and the fight in him then we and every1 at the 3 hospitals who are dealing with us will fight with him and had Nathan had a chance it would have been the same for him.
Consultants gutted he won't get to deliver Sunshine cos he wanted to be in to deliver him to us and i've just to phone in to elaine, the fetal services midwife if i want a scan inbetween n she will arrange it for me and to let her know when i've been for my MRI and when delivery is planned for so she can come up n see us n Sunshine, how lovely, feeling more positive now.
