    I have watched them all. I love that God’s love pulled all of their strength together and they trusted in Him. I am 34 weeks pregnant and have quite an odd story concerning T18. We got the screening just for early gender purposes and just as this story, the report said much more. I received it on my birthday in December of last year. We then were introduced to the MFM world and all the many tests, blood draws, and scans involved. At our 16 week ultrasound, I will never forget this doctor’s name…Jesse Marquis came in and performed our very detailed ultrasound and ended the procedure by telling my husband and I both that there has been a corrected result and there he sees no signs of Trisomy 18. He literally said these words. I was still on my back in ultrasound mode but my husband jumped up to thank the Lord for the both of us. Our 22week check up hit, and they noticed the bowels were outside of the body. This brought on the suggestion to get an amnio done. We did the amnio in March of this year I believe and the results of that read T18. We were totally confused because we had the results from our 16 week scan. Every question you can think of at this point came up and our hearts were exhausted with this rollercoaster of emotions. How were we back to T18? What happened to the corrected results the dr gave us at 16wks? This is our first year in a new state as well and we were far from the usual medical approach that the state of Ohio offers….we now have made our home in Northern Virginia and dealing with this as well. Crying happened, confusion happened, questions came up constantly…until I finally decided to invite God. I had pushed every one out and chose not to pray for months. I just didnt know what to say to Him. In the midst of that time, we experienced bleeding and was told I was miscarrying and it didn’t happen…we were told that she wouldn’t make it past the 2nd trimester and she has. I am now 34 weeks and even though I was told I have extra amnio fluid…our approach is still Gods way and planning to go full term with her (Kennedy). We have been to two MFM entities and are now hoping to receive a consultation from D.C.s Childrens National Hospital. Every kind of testing has been done. The cardiologist says he sees no reason why I cannot deliver vaginally. My first two children, just like this video were full term and vaginally delivered with no complications. In spite of all the anatomy scans and fetal echos…earlier on, there was mention of a fetal MRI to be done and when I brought it up just this past week, the main doctor said that she sees no need for one. This is also the same dr that said amnio fluid (mine is currently at 35.4) can be drained…I brought it up because my pace in the classroom has slowed down (Im a teacher) and again, she mentioned that to her, I didn’t look too uncomfortable to have that procedure done. My husband and I have no idea where this is coming from and still if anything want the MRI to take place. Because if Kennedys cardiologist is saying that her heart won’t be the reason why she passes, then lets see what an MRI could/would reveal. Our story has had so many turns but we are still believing Jesus Christ for a miracle. I am 34 weeks and she is currently 3.5 pounds. If you Dr Papa, have any insight , I would love to hear from you!

    Unfortunately woman no longer have any choices. They are forced to deliver and will be forced to provide every life saving intervention available. If the baby is miscarried or dies at any time after birth will there be a homicide investigation? Will the family end up up declaring bankruptcy? Will any right to lifer even ponder these questions? Had anyone on the Supreme Court even heard of trisomy 18 or any other birth defect? Did they even think about unintended consequences when the overturned Roe v. Wade?

    My daughter has partial trisomy 18 which is a trans location. She is still alive and she is in her 30s. I found out I was a carrier, I have the translocation, but all of my chromosomes are there with no extra material. None of my additional pregnancies were successful. They all had this translocation. My love for her is boundless. My beliefs are a little bit different, I believe that I had chosen her, and she had chosen me as her mother before she had entered my body, and having you choose a path that you take when you enter a physical body.

    I just gave birth to my daughter with down syndrome on the 10th Nov. No one picked it up except me. I told nurses and doctors something was wrong and mentioned down syndrome. After 3 days and after her breathing became faster and feeding worse, they finally did a DNA test. It came back positive for t21 and once they did an echocardiogram, a complete avsd as well. She is still in hospital and will be til surgery in a couple months, til she hits 5kg and is ready for surgery. She is the light of my life I never had before and the child I never knew I needed. She's pure peace and love.

    This is my third pregnancy and second one with gestational diabetes. I was able to control my blood sugar last pregnancy with just keto diet and adjusting my carbs to blood sugar. This pregnancy my morning fasting numbers are too high so the midwife put me on 8ml of insulin at night. Keto diet has really helped me control my gestational diabetes. And i don't feel like crap from blood sugar highs and lows. Normally keto diet did nothing for me in between pregnancy, it didn't help me lose weight.

    Much relief after going through this stuff. Stress no doubt affects my blood sugar levels th-cam.com/users/postUgkx6Cu3qDh3FB7umUbfXaU7hDAHrqvwQyNk Taking a walk usually help bring them down. Eating sweets is not my favorite, but if i take a large portion of them, my blood sugar level rises high. I think it's the high concentration of the glucose flowing into the bloodstream all at once. This is a lesson worth taking note of. This is a great material to learn from.

He has never been diagnosed but he has small head , clinches his hands has deformed feet but he functions with working he works 2 jobs very competed to working . Definitely drinks beer way too much like any person that doesn’t understand what’s wrong with them however he does tell me to treat him like he’s 6 to understand most things . He’s super sweet in nature but it’s obvious there’s an issue and this is the closest I can find to him being diagnosed ? I’m confused as to life expectancy though ? He’s 54 years old and his mom is 90 he is the youngest of 7 children and no others like him at all . Should I look at any other diagnosis with any other names .
