Feeling really disappointed and just all of the emotions.

Rant

I’m 21 weeks. Having a baby boy. We found out he was going to be an XYY baby which took some time to process but I got over it and was excited.

Had my 20 week ultrasound yesterday and they said his brain fluid is at 10ml (right at the limit/cut off for being too much) and ventricles are a little larger than normal. Everything else was perfectly healthy. Doc said that this kind of thing is common in boys and could very well come down by my next ultrasound (4 weeks).

I went through 3 losses. 2024 me couldn’t even imagine being pregnant with such a wiggly baby who is like 99% healthy. I’m just so tired of being worried and preparing for the worst.

I do know how lucky I am to have a living baby while others are going through unimaginable loss. So if I sound like I’m being whiny when I should count my blessings, trust me I am incredibly grateful.

If anyone has any success stories with any of this let me know, I could use it.
