Finally...Some Relief!

Bentley had to go to the heart Dr. last week since he has Down Syndrome the Drs. said that 40% of children with DS have a heart condition or problem. Well his blood pressure was good, his EKG was good. They weighed him and my little man weighed 9lbs 10oz. and is almost 24 inches long!! He peed all over the nurse while he was getting weighed and then peed and pooped all over the table when I was putting his diaper back on. The Dr. came in and listened to his heart and he said he didn't hear anything wrong, and that his EKG looked great. But he said you never can tell until you actually look at the heart, so they did an ultrasound of his heart! He was being so funny by this time and the ultrasound technician couldnt keep him from coming unswaddled and getting the ultrasound gel all over him! But his heart was great they said! So my little man is free of heart problems! The Dr. said that it is very unlikely that he could have any heart problems in the future. The only thing he had wrong was one of his main blood vessels for his right arm is attatched to the wrong spot on his heart but he said that its not uncommon for that to happen and that its fine like that & that it doesnt cause any problems. :) Like I always say, "I'm not Lucky; I'm Blessed--YESS!"
