12w5d - CVS news, part 1

My husband called me at work yesterday to say the genetic counselor called him with news about Baby A. All of the results came back normal, and for once, he knew something before I did. He had the chance to tell me that we're expecting a precious little baby girl! How special is that?

We are so relieved and grateful that our baby girl has no chromosomal abnormalities, and we are obviously beyond excited to know that she's a little girl. It has made this unbelievable pregnancy all the more real. Hubby has been floating on cloud 9.

A pregnant colleague of his told me by email that my husband was "glowing" all day. I thought that was both funny and adorable.

We will have to wait until next week to find out the results for Baby B and Baby C. They had the best sample for Baby A, so it's no surprise that her results came in earlier than the others.

The waiting has been very difficult, but it's comforting to know one set of results already. That will get me through the weekend...
