Foramen Ovale

As I discussed at the very bottom of this blog our baby has narrow foramen ovale. If it were rated on a scale of 1-3 his would be a 2. It is not the best but not the worst. A complete zero would mean that it is completely closed. (The f.o. helps blood flow in utero.) We have an appointment scheduled with the cardiologist on May 6th. I will be 26 weeks 5 days pregnant. At the Boston Children's Hospital they perform an intrauterine procedure that would place a balloon in our baby's f.o. that would help open it. You are only a candidate for this procedure up to 28 weeks of pregnancy. So please pray that this part of our baby's heart stays open and that it does not get more narrow. The last 2 check ups have been the same and there has been no more narrowing so our prayers have been heard. Let's just keep praying about this and thinking positive. Thanks for all of your support.
