Have the doctors told you? Like are you and your spouse a carrier for the same gene. My doctor told me I was a carrier for it but I was like 1 in 100. So unless you guys both are I say don’t worry mama🩷💐

They say Im a carrier. I wont worry you just made me feel better

yeah don’t be scared just enjoy your pregnancy, it’s normal for us to be worried are whole pregnancy we just want a healthy baby 🩷

Thank you so much my love ❤️

That's really freaky momma. I'll pray for you 🙏

Thank you sweetie ❤️

have your partner get his screening done you both have to be carriers and then pass that mutation on for baby to have it so though the odds sound scary it’s likely your baby will be beautiful and healthy! 🫶🏻

not as of yet! Thank you so much ❤️
