The genetic counselor called on July 9th. The chromosomes look normal and we are expecting a baby girl. This is significant because the ultrasound showed girly parts but if the chromosomes had been boy then it would have been almost guaranteed that the baby have Campomelic Dysplasia.
So now we are just waiting to hear back from Johns Hopkins. If the SOX9 gene shows as normal then they will send more cells to be tested for Osteogenesis Imperfecta. We are still praying for a miracle for our miracle girl.
Meanwhile we get to start choosing a name.
wow, you have gone through a lot, and it looks like a lot more is in store for you. Your refiner's fire is like a bonfire. I'm so sorry and I'm so glad you are loved by friends and family around you. May our Saviour and guardian angels comfort and lift you and yours.
