Rolling the dice.

I have a normal karyotype; though we've known this since January.

Awaiting the fetal microarray.  Flasks are already for exome sequencing, so DH and I have to go to Columbia and sign off on more paperwork and have more blood drawn.

And, while talking to my genetic counselor, she received a fax.

DH has a normal karyotype.  Honestly, I'm shocked.  I know on one level this should make me happy because dealing with a translocation isn't really fun; but, it comes with a set path forward.  We would have known our path forward.  It would have been rocky, uncomfortable, and long; but we would have had a set path.

Unless the microarray or exome sequencing shows something major, it looks like we are going to end up rolling the dice again.

I can't help but feel like even when we get a BFP, I'm still going to roll snake eyes.

  1. I can imagine how you must feel. At least if your dh's testing came back, you would have a plan of action. now youre still in the unknown and that must be hard. hope you get some answers soon.
