Ultrasound

It's week 20 and we had our first official ultrasound. We had to see a specialist because Dennis has Aortic Stenosis which can be passed down to the child. There is a 3% to 4% our child could develop the same problem. During the ultrasound the heart was developing perfectly. Due to the risk we need to have an ultrasound done every 4 weeks. This is because the heart can develop improperly over time. Our fingers our crossed that our baby's heart develops properly. This is one trait we don't want passed on to our child.
