21 week ultrasound and doctor's appointment

As some of you may know, my last ultrasound found a little calcium deposit in Pistachio's heart. The doctor believed this to be harmless; however recommended that we schedule a level 2 ultrasound to confirm. So, just today, Jason and I headed to another doctor's appointment for this ultrasound. The calcium deposit remains in Pistachio's heart for now, but the doctor reassured us that this can be quite common in babies and does not signal any problems with the baby's heart. The doctor confirmed that Pistachio's heart is pumping and operating just as it should. No holes, no leaking, and operating as a fully functioning and beating heart. Apparently, this little calcium deposit can be a marker for down's syndrome when observed with other markers. Hence, why our primary doctor wanted us to get this checked out. Thankfully, Pistachio is not at risk for any of these other markers. My lab work came back low risk, Pistachio's nose and spine are forming quite nicely, and the fluid indicator under the neck remains low risk. The doctor today told us that Pistachio has a 1 in 20,000 chance of having down's syndrome and to not worry. Apparently, Pistachio is a healthy little growing baby, weighing in at 15 ounces, just under a pound. Pistachio is fully active now, causing our ultrasound technician some frustration as Pistachio would not sit still, causing some blurriness in the pictures. Apparently this stopped for the doctor when Pistachio decided to be quite cooperative. So here are the facts of our little baby: Pistachio is active, growing, 15 ounces, currently positioned butt down, and loves to be curled up in a tight ball. Oh, and Pistachio is already quite stubborn (runs in both sides of our families!). As the doctor told us, we are to take 1 of his 3 recommendations. 1) Don't worry, 2) Don't worry, and 3) Don't worry. Apparently, if we forget recommendation number 1, we are to remember recommendation 2 or 3. I'm just glad we don't have to worry about this anymore. So far, we have been blessed with a healthy, low-risk pregnancy, and a healthy growing lil' Pistachio!
