Last doctors visit, Jan 29, I had my blood drawn for my quad-test, which is for Downs Syndrome, Trisomy 18, neural defects and spina bifida. They told me they would prob have results in fri, feb 2, and they would call me if they were positive. I have been a nervous wreck waiting for these results, Im 31 and an increase at risk for everything. I didnt hear anything friday by 430 so broke down and called them. I thought it was good that I hadnt heard anything but still....the results weren't back yet. SO, after a long weekend of waiting, I had to wait until Monday. I am working from home this week due to remodeling work done in my office. Kids were on snow schedule, and working from home is WAY harder than working at work! Man, so monday came and went, no phone call from doc, but still wasn't sure. I was expecting a call, not necessarily cause something would be wrong, but the quad test has a HIGH false positive rate, so even if it comes back positive, after further tests there can still be nothing wrong. Anywho, I convinced myself no news is good news, needless to say though, broke down tuesday at 430 and called anyways, it's always possible they forgot me! To make a longer story longer, the results were negative!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you don't know what a relief! I feel like this huge weight has been lifted from me!! I am SO thankful that I have one less thing to worry about!!!
On the home front, had new carpet put in all 3 bedrooms today, covering our gorgeous hard wood floors. Hubby got tired of hardwood!! It looks great and the nursery is empty and ready to decorate! I'll be getting the crib hopefully this week, then the rest shortly. Still no ideas on decor and such. Going to wait til Feb 19 and see if little bit will spread em' for the camera!!!!
