I just posted it Smile but here it is!

Well I got my ultrasound back and its a boy, were getting another ultrasound to make 100% sure on march. 1st but they said its a boy and we could tell it was (wanted a girl originally but I am soo happy still) ! He said everything appears fine, no signs of any probs or down syndrome so far. But he said that I could get amnio centieses done (however u spell it) where the poke the belly with the needle do withdrawl fluid to check if the baby has any abnormal chromosomes... But ive decided not to do this because he said even if the baby (he Smile ) does have a problem like down syndrome, there isnt anything he can do.. Plus there is a risk of getting amnio centeises done because u can have a mis-carry. So I would rather just not know 100%. Plus.. I feel better. .My sister works w/ three girls and they alll had abnormal results like me and all of them had normal, healthy children*

Yes alot of those tests come back saying something is wrong when its really not! I choose not to have any of the tests done because either way I would keep my baby. And I would love her just the same.
