How we got here...

We were so excited and surprised to find out we were having a baby in July of 2009. We had just returned from a family trip to Savannah GA when we learned the news. On our second visit with Dr. Moore, my OBGYN, she noticed that some of my blood tests were coming back a little "off". We repeated them and learned that I have a hyperthyroid. She referred me to the high risk group- TN Maternal Fetal Group. Our first visit was with Dr. Collins and while talking to me about the thyroid condition he noticed one of my bloods tests showed an antibody in my blood. He wasn't too alarmed but did want to schedule an ultrasound to make sure the baby was not anemic. That ultrasound is where everything started getting scary!!
