BUT! All is well. Thank you if you are still reading my cobwebbed sporadic postings. I wanted to come back briefly and let you know that the baby is fine! All of our numbers came back good on the AFP test. 1/26000 for neural tube defects (Anencephaly), 1/25000 for trisomies and downs. (or something like that.) All within normal range. To put it in perspective, Jonathan's numbers were 1/5. that is the highest they give for any given abnormality because it could be a false positive.
We had a higher level ultra sound the day after our tests came back to confirm the diagnosis which was great to see our sweet little baby and HIS very round little head.
And yes, you read that right. It is another boy. Apparently, there are NOT girl sperm to be had and there will probably not be any girls in our family other than me! Though I did reserve the right to have one more child, I am resigned to it being a sweet little boy too.
So that is the news. All good. Thanks for reading.

So glad to hear everything went well! Now you can concentrate on enjoying being pregnant. Even though you were hoping for "pink" I know you will enjoy your sweet little boy. Congrats!
Congrats on another boy... and that he is healthy!
Congratulations! We don't have girl sperm either! So glad to hear the good news and I can't wait to find out what you name him! :)
