Hello, CAF friends,

My daughter, who is about 20 weeks pregnant, had a follow-up ultrasound today. Though things looked normal structurally, with a good heartbeat, size, etc., there was evidence of slight fluid buildup in the baby’s abdomen (abdominal ascites.) This can mean any one of a number of things, from urinary blockage to chromosomal problems to something viral…or it can resolve on its own.

Needless to say, she and my sweet SIL are quite worried and upset; they will see a high risk OB in the morning for further ultrasound and a discussion of the ramifications. They have already taken many vials of blood to test for a range of viruses. We had been afraid previously about a possible exposure to cytomegalovirus, but that test was apparently negative.

Please keep the baby, my daughter and SIL in your prayers. (And me, as I’m a bit of a nervous wreck worrying about all of them!)

Thank you, as always.
 
Hail Mary, Full of Grace
The Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou amongst women
And Blessed is the fruit of thy womb - JESUS.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
Pray for us sinners now
And at the hour of our death.
AMEN.
 
Glory be to The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be
World without end

Amen
 
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. 🙂
 
Praying for your daughter and SIL and for your unborn grandchild as well …
 
An update; they just saw the wonderful perinatologist and he told them that, though there could be a little fluid there, he was not worried, and didn’t think there was anything serious going on. They did detailed ultrasound scans and all organs and systems looked good. Though they will do another one next week, just in case, he reassured them considerably. 🙂

Please keep up the prayers that this is, indeed, just a minor glitch and not the beginning of something more serious. This is the second scare during her pregnancy, and we all just about have heart attacks each time!!!

My thanks to you all; I keep all of you in my prayers, as well.
 
Praying that it continues to look good for them and the precious child.
 
Thank you, Jesus, for the good outcome of the ultrasound scans. Please watch over this baby and grant that he/she will be okay. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer. Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
