Hello I'm Rachel, I'm 19 and a FTM of a little boy named Mason Wayde((due 01-01-2016).

Now to my story. This is what happen at the appointment Thursday, June 25th... A lot was going on, first a normal ultrasound and was told fine, then I went to go wait to schedule for a follow up then the heart breaking news got told to me and had me curled up in codys(LO father/my fiancé) arms crying, there's a lot of fluid in the baby's neck skin like the other doctor(normal ob)measured a 6.9((really bad)week before on Friday the 19th) but then today at a different ob they measured 3.4((still bad but better)last week Thursday the 25th), idk how nearly a week makes a giant drop of 3.5.. but now have to do all these blood work tests to see why and if the baby will even make it...but they put me as high risk so I have to be extra careful and shit or I can have a miscarriage even faster, if I even have one.. If any part of the test comes back positive they will take a really really long needle and put it through my stomach and into the baby's sack and pull out some fluid to test it, this test gave me great news but also horrible news. My son tested positive for trisomy 18 and he fights every day for life... However his heart beat is a strong 155-160 beats per minute and always kicking up a storm and seems to be the happiest baby ever and weights the 4oz that he's meant to weight at this stage, however he doesn't measure a 4.5in he actually measures at a 4.2in. All though he has trisomy 18 he's a fighter and I can see it for sure, his bladder has enlarged a lot but at my last appointment it looks as if it's getting smaller and all they could tell was a odd looking left foot((clubbed left foot)) and the rest was perfectly fine((THANK YOU GOD! THANK YOU PRAYERS AND LOVE)) the bladder is the black empty space/bubble forming in his body from 10.5 weeks all the way up to 15.5 weeks. Come 18 weeks at the ultrasound they said that the bladder is getting smaller and he's peeing and swallowing 19weeks now and he's still a strong fighting little boy, and I'll continue to help him, he's my son. The last measurements had him measuring at the right size and weight for his size which was 7oz and 5.5inches long. They didn't see ANY heart issues at all just a clubbed foot. But now what has changed farther into the pregnancy, a heart defect showed up and he has 2 VSD's((found that out September 14th). There's so many days I struggle and it just seems so unbearable and makes me get depressed.. I try not showing or ever talking about it because it always seems to dig deeper and cause me to blame myself and beat myself up, it hurts to be so tough and have my own depression but then now with hearing about my son it just makes everything worse, at times I wish I could change things but I've committed myself to staying strong and will fight with him and for him.. I have an fb page I can give out to the ones that want to follow it, and also have a gofundme account.. IM NOT ASKING FOR YOU TO DONATE OR ANYTHING but it's your choice if you'd love to help me out with medical costs for a special needs child.

Here's a list of all his issues:

-2 vessel umbilical cord

-bilateral cleft lip

-bilateral cleft palate

-clenched fists

-clubbed foot

-bowed leg

-key holed bladder

-left side of the heart is smaller than the right

-2 VSD's in the heart between the bottom 2 chambers

@brandylemonds15, he's doing well so far, he's made it to 32 weeks and showing the doctors how strong and how much fight he has in him along with his 2 VSD's he's actually starting to grow a tissue to close them :) I posted a photo in my photos of his heart if you'd like to see it

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday…

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

AF due 29th, anyone else?

Soon enough the worst thing in the world could ever happen actually happen..Thanksgiving morning at 7:30am we went to the hospital for a BPP/NST test and they couldn't find a heart beat which was so heart breaking because just before I walking in those doors he was kicking and punching. Come 3pm that same day they started to induce labor and those where the worst 12 hours ever, but come 4am the next day 11-27-2015 he was born. That day became his "forever day" not a birthday or the date of death..it was his forever day where he was so peaceful and didn't suffer anymore. He was the biggest miracle in my whole life..and he made it so far and beat the record of babies with trisomy((they never make it past 5 months, and if they do there life is really difficult)). Mason's issues he had: 2vessel umbilical cord 2VSDs Left side of the heart smaller than right side Clubbed foot Clenched fists Bilateral cleft lip Bilateral cleft palate Key-holed bladder Mason eared his wings 11-26-2015, was born sleeping 11-27-2015 at 4am. He was 3lbs 11oz and was a perfect angel. Here's her page about her son: https://www.facebook.com/Mason.trisomy18 We wish you the best @zombie_kitty69 and we're keeping your family in our thoughts.
