Thank goodness the family chose to keep the pregnancy. I’m so happy for them but it must have been so stressful to think they would lose their baby.

What a beautiful family photo. Truly awful what they went through.

So glad you didn’t abort your child. Terrible ordeal to go through and remain positive but she was so worth it. Ella is a beautiful little girl who wanted to be with you both.

OMG how can this happen?? I assume she had an amnio? Glad all went well in the end but the poor thing couldn’t even enjoy her pregnancy.

Such a wonderful outcome. Good on her for sticking to her guns.

Geez, that’s terrible. Lovely that they had enough faith to continue the pregnancy and how fortunate she was a healthy baby.

We wanted tests to prepare ourselves for what was coming, not necessarily to terminate because of a problem.

this is why I refused the tests, it wouldn’t have changed the outcome for me, maybe would have prepared me if needed but wouldn’t have made me abort my baby. The “just in case they were wrong” would play on my mind for the rest of my life

I’m so happy Ella is healthy. The incorrect diagnosis would be been a terrible burden to carry throughout what should have been a very happy time for the new parents.

I’ve heard a few stories along these lines. Its a mistake that shouldn’t be made. It would have been quite easy to check the results.

Oh wow! They were very brave to go on. And they were right. They got such a wonderful girl. Let’s hope she won’t get any problem in the future if she really has that trisomy.
