YAY!!!!!!!
We are excited to announce the results of Baby O's level 2 ultrasound are wonderful! The Choroid Plexus Cysts (CPCs) that they found bilaterally in Baby O's brain are already resolving themselves. The left side is completely clear and there is just a small amount of fluid on the right side that is disapating.They also moved my due date....AGAIN! Started out at June 1st, then moved to June 6th, then June 3rd at last ultrasound and now back up to May 31st. So...I'm 21 weeks instead of 20 weeks right now. Here are some pictures from the ultrasound. They aren't as clear as our other ones but they had to zoom in so close to see all of his little organs and limbs. I wish we would have gotten all of the pictures, but they only gave us a few. Here they are!
Baby O's little heart. If you look closely, you can see the 4 chambers. There were better pictures, but she used this one to check his fetal heart rate which was 139.
More pictures of Graysen's feet! They already look bigger than his 19 week ultrasound.
Hard to see, but this is Graysen's hand. You can see his fingers. The little hand is pointing to his 5th finger. They were looking for a Trisomy 18 marker...didn't find any!
Baby's face. It's turned to the side so you may have to tilt your head to the right to see it.
Graysen's face again! This time his mouth is open. We did get to see the lenses in his eyes too. Hard to see in these pictures, but that's neat! He really wanted that left hand by his face too! Stubborn little turd...we were trying to see if his fist was clenched (that is another marker) and he wouldn't move the darn thing or he would wave it quickly and all we would see what a blur. We finally found it incidentally!
Profile picture from the left side. Again..wanted his fingers in his mouth or up by his face.
Profile from the left again. Our other images are clearer but like I said, he would not stop moving today so some of them are a little blurry!
One last profile from the left side.
Toilet shot to see Femurs and show once again..It's a BOY!
Profile from the right side. Again...sorry it's blurry.
Here is a better profile picture from the right side.
After talking to the Dr. today, we are very pleased with the results. We could go back in 5 weeks for another ultrasound to make sure that everything has cleared up but by the way everything else looked, we are opting not to have one. If they had found other markers for Trisomy 18, we would maybe think about it. At this point, they have found nothing and even if they had...it wasn't going to change anything with the pregnancy. We are very thankful to have things turn out the way they did and by the way he's constantly moving and already acting stubborn...I think we are going to have our hands full!
I am thankful for technology but after our last baby we don't rely on ultrasound results as much. They told us after 2 ultrasounds our daughter would have bilateral club foot for sure. She is absolutely perfectly fine. We were worried for nothing. We did learn a very important lesson, to trust God over man :)
ReplyDeleteI am 41 years old and 23 weeks pregnant. My quad screen came back I had a 1:10 risk of my baby girl having trisomy 18. Did a level 2 ultrasound where technician did it and dr came in later to review still photos. Dr. spent all of 10 min with us and them said our baby had trisomy 18. No explanation just said he wanted to send me for amnio that week. I spent a week crying my eyes out. Praying to God for a miracle. Went for amnio and second ultrasound this time dr did it himself and spent over an hour looking at baby. He told me he did not agree with other dr he did not see same signs and it was his gut feeling our baby did not have trisomy 18. We are waiting on amnio results for get verification.
ReplyDeleteI am currently 24 weeks pregnant. At my 20 week ultrasound it indicated that my lil boy has a chroid plexus cyst on the brain. I have been praying everyday that everything comes out ok. I have another ultrasound next week to make sure it has disappeared. If you could just say a little extra prayer for my lil boy.
