I got the call we have been waiting for this week. This baby does not have any trisomies. That’s right - 46 perfect little chromosomes.
While most parents would pat themselves on the back for being so genetically sound, we breathed a big sigh of relief and then went right back to worrying.
Both our boys had the correct number of chromosomes. In fact, other than the 1g, there wasn’t much wrong with them. That means that we got the “good news” from the Cleveland Clinic seven times - two FISH, two SNP, two microarrays, and one target test for Smith Lemli Oplitz — all perfectly clean. Nothing to see here.
So that leaves us with a minimum of seven days wait for the target test. MINIMUM.
So, yes, yay for no trisomies. But this ain’t over yet.
