Update on baby Eve

We had another ultrasound today because the baby wouldn't let her get all the measurements last time. Our appt was at 11, and we didn't get in till 12. Again the baby was being totally stubbord and wouldln't let her get pictures of everything. Finally she rolled over and everything looked ok and she finished getting measurements, she left the room after we got done, and said I'll be right back, she comes in with an OB, not normal, so he tells us that she has a cyst in her abdomin. He said that it's not connected to her heart or bladder or kidneys and that most likely since she is a she its a ovarian cyst. He said though since he's not a specialist and can't give us a 100% answer he's sending us to a MFM specialist for further evaluation. He said in his opinion the specialist will probably just have them do ultrasounds every few weeks to monitor it and as long as it isn't growing they will wait till she is born to decide what to do about it. He said sometimes cysts are chromosomal, but since none of her other organs have any of the markers and look normal he isn't too concerned about it. He also said sometimes they are cancerous, but since the cyst does not present in a way that makes it look like cancerous.
We then had our normal OB appt and our OB again said to her she's pretty sure its just an ovarian cyst, but again she'd rather send us to someone who is paid the big bucks just in case.

So now we wait...they said we should get our refferal by Monday and an appt in the next 2 weeks.

So anyway...just keep us in your thoughts and I'll keep you guys updated as I know more :(
