Today we went back to the hospital to have another sonogram done in order to clear the spine since the position of the baby last week made that difficult. After taking a look at the spine, the tech moved on to check the heart. She spent what seemed like forever looking at the heart. And I knew something was not right. When she was done she told me what she thought she might have noticed - a small membranous ventricular septal defect - a hole in the wall that separates the ventricles in the heart.
The doctor came in to take a look and she wasn't sure either. So it looks like later this month we get to see a fetal cardiologist to get a clearer picture. According to the doctor and the tech, the VSD may or may not be there at all but they just want to be super cautious. Unfortunately they didn't give us any more pictures of the baby!
