B@dragonfly I'm glad they caught the contractions! Hospitals suck but you're in the right place. I Hope the little guy stays cooking a bit longer. Please try and rest.

Shot of the babys' face as HE (confirmed) was pushed right up to my side so couldn't get a good picture.

Side view, you can see the little gap to the uterine wall. Can't wait to meet him in a couple months. So far he is 4 lbs and at the right weight at this stage.

He is adorable! Glad all is well at the moment. Such a relief to hear he is ok and you got to get good pics to prove it!

@Kelliria. Thank you! Wish I got more but soon I will hold him and that to me is Priceless. I'm just glad I got another ultrasound and got to confirm for sure.

Hi ladies. I got the results back from the ultrasound and they have me classified as high risk. The tech found an abnormality with the heart and one of the valves is closed but the rest of the heart is fine. They want me to do an ultrasound at 4 weeks to see if it has corrected its and if not then the baby will have to have an ultrasound when he is born to check his heart but no baby should have to go through that. It's so unfair to him . It made me really sad to hear that news. So, i may be taken off work for awhile but will have to see what my doctor says tomorrow and whether or not I am getting discharged tomorrow or staying another night; which I would be okay with as walking seems to be too much to handle. I will keep you ladies posted as soon as I find out.

So sorry to wake up today and read this is happening to you Dragonfly23, I hope they manage to keep your little guy in a little while longer, and I hope all is well with him too, it's usually far better if there's an issue that spot it before hes born, but fingers crossed it has resolved itself before the next scan. Good luck and you're in the best place

@dragonfly - so sorry to hear the news too. Hopefully it'll fix itself before birth. I know how worried you are though. Fingers crossed for you and little one.

Thanks ladies. I really don't know what to say or think right. I'm still really sad about this. I don't even want to attempt searching on Google for the what ifs. Any insight on how to move passed this or know of someone and they turned out fine. Forgive me if I get quiet a bit today but I wasn't expecting this. Will keep you ladies posted on my discharge or if I'm staying another night but in all honesty; my mindset should stay.

Oh dragonfly. I'm sorry to hear you are going through this. Like Larkrmw said it's best that they found it now so they can monitor it and be prepared for it when he is born. He will get all the care he needs when he is born now and that's the most important thing. They will also know if it goes away or not as your progress. I hope they help you with your mindset and getting through this. I'm here for you. We are all here for you.
