Hey everyone, my name is Direasa. I am 36weeks and 5days pregnant with my first child. A son who at 20weeks was diagnosed with Hydrocephalus.
A little history on how my pregnancy has been going; we had an MRI done and it didnt show any "block" that would cause the buildup of fluid which then points to some type of genetic problem. I then had an amnio done and that came back fine, they could have done more invasive testing on the genes but I chose not to. The fluid and the hydrocephalus itself is mild and im still expected to have a vaginal delivery. The plan for now is to just wait and see how he is and if there will be another diagnosis when he is born.
As for now I am preparing for delivery and the nicu. I'm worried I'm packing too much but I want him to be at home there so I packed a teddy that plays womb noises, pictures, a glass angel to watch over him, and the homemade quilt made by my grandmother for him. Along with other things like breast milk storage bags, a going home outfit, etc. Tomorrow when I go to the doctor I will ask them what I can and cannot bring and what will be supplied for me.
As for names,
Dads name is Fred so I'm thinking either Amir (wich means Prince) Fred or King Fred. Let me know what you guys think.
My new 3d ultrasounds are linked as well, he looks just like daddy. Same chubby cheeks, nose, and attitude. LOL!
