I am very happy to announce that we are having a girl! More importantly, everything seems to be growing at normal rates, and everything is where it should be! We got some of the test results back and so far they have all come back with low risk for things like Downs Syndrome and Trisomy 18. The only concern was the spotting I had this morning, which after an exam was determined to be caused by a polyp. They will be keeping an eye on it, but say it isn't something to worry about. We will be going ...

We've gone live with our web site! YEAH!!! We've gotten rave reviews, which is wonderful - we have worked so hard on this for so long!

We have an influx of new members who were on the listservs and hadn't joined yet. 20 or 30 in the past few days. Our old site was averaging 300,000 hits per month, our new site should be a lot more.

Well I have started this blog but I am very confused about how this all works. I am not very technically minded but like to have a go.

These friends got me through my pregnancy and were also there for me when Joel left us. Thank you everyone. Once I get the hang of all this I will update more

Lots of love Debbiexxxxxx

My CHERUB Jonathan Luke, was born Nov. 7, 1997 with a RCDH, hole in the heart, and IUGR. He weighed only 4 lbs. 15.7 oz. full term. We did not find out he had CDH until they performed an autopsy to find out why he died. I have been a member of CHERUBS since 1998.
