15w1d - 24w6d to go!

Got a call back from Cheryl (the genetic counselor) at Dr. Fuentes' office today.

She actually left me a voicemail last night about my first trimester screening results. I tried to give her a call back about three minutes after her call, but got the office's answering service. (The answering service lady was quite rude, by the way!) But, I wasn't too concerned, Cheryl's voicemail said that it was good news!

And it was!
Down's Syndrome risk: less than 1 in 10,000
Edward's Syndrome risk: less than 1 in 10,000

Both of these, she says, is the best score you can get on the tests. I've got a healthy little guy (or girl)! Next step will be getting the AFP test done at my next appointment (next week) which tests for Spina Bifida.

Let's hope that is good news, too!
