First trimester screening

I went to a specialist doctor in Plano to get testing called a first trimester screening. This is a blood test and sonogram to test for down syndrome and trisomy 21 and 18. The sonogram showed that everything looked completely normal for all measurements regarding down syndrome. And for the trisomy blood test will be back early next week.

Also during this sonogram, they can possibly tell the gender of the baby if the baby cooperates. So the doctor said that she would only tell me if she was 95% sure. Otherwise we would have to wait to know till our 20 weeks appointment. She very quickly moved the sonogram to the side of my belly and said... This looks like a little brother! So most likely another boy for us!
