I got a picture of my baby before he's born. This is with a new 4d ultrasound.
We did it so we can see his heart. He has a hole in it. Which is sad. But if you are religious pray for us we need it.

I will pray for you and your boy for sure!
My advice will always be: look on the positive side of things. Sure, his condition has no positive side, but let's hope he'll be born without problems and you and your wife/girlfriend enjoy great moments together with your child so that his condition will be on the background of your lifes...
All the best!

Aw, I feel sorry for you. That must be awful. I know my mother had a miscarriage before I was born which she was very upset about, though if that hadn't have happened I guess I wouldn't be here today.
Your baby boy looks very cute from the scan though! He's grinning!

Believe that everything will be OK - medicine is on the very high level now. And positive thinking is probably what your gilfriend and your son needs now.
I hope we'll see the picture of your lovely smiling baby in some months (I don't know how many there're left for him to be born)
Greetings for you and your gilfriend!

Ah that is very sad and your little boy certainly looks adorable.
Things have a way of working out and whatever life brings you should always believe in hope. All my best to you and your partner.

I can't say I'm religious, but all the best. A new life is one of the best things that will happen to you

All babies have a hole in the heart and when they start to breathe outside of the womb,
this hole usually closes.
In the instance it doesn't close, it is Not dangerous, UNless the hole is too big.
Many normal adults have a small hole in the heart ... the sound of which can be picked up on a stetoscope.
If the hole is too big, then an operation can be necessary.
In any instance,
one often finds that those with any such conditions often have some extra capability that balances this out.

Yeah, this is true. I think it's 2 valves that close after birth.
They just found another hole today. They hope the heart can close on it's own.
Thanks so much everyone...

Thanks for the picture! It's a great kid. Can you see...he is smiling to the world outside.
My mother is 66 years old and she have allways had a little hole in her heart. 3 years ago she underwent a heart operation after feeling physically tired quicker than normal. The surgeon put in a very small kind of "umbrella" thru the hole and then expanding the umbrella to tighten and close the hole. She was cycling 40 km last weekend and feeling pretty well, exept for a hurting back from time to time.
I don't know exactly the condition of your baby, but I guess what I'm trying to say is that I believe there still is so much hope. My best wishes to you all.
