Guess what, guess what!! My son called last night to tell me that his wife had been to the doctor yesterday, and upon performing an internal examination found that she is a month further along than originally thought! Which means my grandbaby is coming in July!! Woo Hoo!! PLUS, she may be having an ultrasound as early as today in order to find out the sex of the baby. Now, they're not doing this just because they want to know the sex; the doctors want to know the sex because hemophelia runs in my daughter-in-law's family, and they need to know if it is a boy or a girl so they can be better prepared for treatment when it is born. If it is a boy, it will almost certainly have the disorder; if it is a girl, she will almost certainly be a carrier. Both of my DIL's brothers are hemopheliacs, and she is a carrier. It is a manageable disorder, though, so don't worry too much, k? ;) Of course one must be more aware and careful with a child who has hemophelia, but exercise and sport is actually recommended, rather than not. But anyway, you guys, I might be finding out whether I'm getting a grandson or a granddaughter today!!!!! *jumping up and down* I'll let you know when I do!! *giddy smile*
