Our son Magnus was born November 19, 2009 with a serious congenital heart defect, HLHS. I set up this blog to keep our family and friends updated on his condition, and to connect with other families dealing with HLHS.

More good news
Just got word that my fetal fibronectin test came back negative! That means that I have less than a 5% chance of going into labor in the next two weeks (the doctors told me it's actually less than a 1% chance, but I have seen otherwise online, so I'll be conservative here!).
Yay! Your little guy still has a great shot! Please keep trusting your instincts, and know that doctors, statistics, and experts are just not always reliable sources of information when it comes to babies in the belly. (or child-rearing, for that matter..) We'll keep sending some positive vibes your way!
Now, are you going to be able to have this test every two weeks? Is it srrictly a two-weeks-in-the-future test?
ReplyDeleteyeah! keep cookin' that babe!
ReplyDeleteMo, yes, we can keep doing it every two weeks.

ReplyDeleteRight, read the comments too late, every 2 weeks then. Good! Knowledge is power (and piece of mind, if the test is negative).
ReplyDeleteStrenght!
