Well, it appears that bump is actually there now. I don't mean visibily you can see it (though Sheryl is certainly a bit bigger) as much as you can feel it. That. Was. Weird. We're just laying there one night, and like any exitedly expecting daddy-to-be would do, I just put my hand on Sheryl's belly. Strangely, there was this spot that was harder than the rest. Pretty cool!
Today we have our first trimester screening, which means we've got days ahead of us of worry that we had done such a good job of burying. This one screens for genetic problems like trisomy 18 (really, really bad) and 21 (Down's). The bad thing is, this is just a screening - not a diagnostic test. So instead of yes/no we get odds. So in essence Carlos's health is being handicapped like a bookie does a horse race.
Wish us luck, folks! We're positive about things, but it never hurts to have people praying for us and Carlos!
