Pregnancy update to follow...

I got a message yesterday from the genetic counselors who conducted my NIPT test (4 days earlier than they promised! Hooray)!!!!! All is normal! Tests were negative for Trisomy 13, 18, 21, and sex chromosome anomalies.

Aaaaaannnnnnd... We are having a GIRL!
I am so beside myself with joy!

The past 4 consecutive days, I've been having debilitating migraine headaches, but I almost don't even care. Right now, it looks like we have a healthy baby girl growing in there & I couldn't be happier. I can suffer through the pain. When you struggle through the pain that is infertility, everything else somehow seems put in perspective.

My husband keeps saying, throughout the day, "it's a GIRL!" and smiling to himself. I feel so so lucky.

Congrats! I\'m so happy to hear things are going well. Pregnancy can be hard, but it\'s nothing compared to infertility, so it seems easy. :)
