CVS (Not the Pharmacy)
I just realized that we have not made it official yet the latest news in the Stover Family. Mike and I are expecting our second child! :) We are excited with the prospect of having another little one in the house and giving Jaime a sibling.
Today the baby got tested for genetic defects. I underwent a procedure called Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS), which collects genetic information about the baby. The procedure was not really painful, but it was a bit scary to me, not to mention having to endure an extremely full bladder for about 2 hours. The testing is done earlier than the amniocentesis and it is newer as well ,that is why you may not have heard of it.
I need to rest for 48 hours and cannot pick Jaime up. Results will be in in about 10 days. We are positive we will get good news. Now the only question we have is … Do we want to know if the little one moving inside me is a girl or a boy?
