Our baby Girl

We just recently found out that our baby has the same problem Evie had.  A diaphragmatic hernia which is a hole in the diaphragm that is allowing  the organs on the lower half of her body to enter the top half of the body.  All though this little one's situation is not as severe as Evie's condition it still gives us reasons to be concerned.  So far the only thing in this little girl that is concerning is the stomach next to the heart.  Nothing else has been detected out of place and we are praying that this is the only thing that does enter there.  If it is she will have a better chance of servile.  The doctors think that this problem is genetic due to the fact that the two children we have conceived have this problem.  I  am going in to have an Amino Sanitises done on Dec. 2nd.  This procedure will see if the problem is genetic or not.  They will be attracting some Amnionic fluid from the placenta and testing it for genetic defects.  Other than that there is really nothing we can do, but wait and see what happens.  Surprisingly I have taken this news quite well.  I have been quite  calm and have had only a few brake downs.  I have no doubt that the calmness has been from every ones prayers and fasting for us at this time.  Thank you all for your love and support.  We will be sure to keep everyone informed on this.
