Birth defect

With me and my wife, we have to worry about Cystic Fibrosis since one of us is a carrier and we don't know about the other one. So, I know what you're going through; especially since she's pregnant.

I will definately keep you, your family, and your little one in my prayers. This has got to be a scary time for you. When I was pregnant with my daughter, there was a 1 in 37 chance (very high) that she could have born with trisome 18. It is a genetic disorder that there are absolutely no known survivers of, and it is extremely possible that is what took my son when he was only 5 weeks old. I was so scared when I was told the news, and I had to have an amniocentisis to find out. I prayed, my family prayed, my friends prayed, and thank God, my little girl did not have it. As I said, I will definately keep you in my prayers. God bless you.

You and your precious baby girl will be in my prayers nightly but please try to to worry too much. I've never had any experience with cleft lips but I have read that they've been able to do some amazing corrective procedures in the past couple of years. Think positive, find the best doctor in the field after the baby is born. Don't forget to take care of yourself, too.
