Who knows...?

Dear Nicky,

Well, a lot of people are telling us one thing, while others are telling us something else. Today we went to see Dr. Hedley, who was really nice. She said that if not for the amniocentesis tests telling us you have Down syndrome, she wouldn't think there was a thing wrong with you. She showed us your heart, which she said looks normal to her. We watched you do practice breathing and suck on your wrist. The doctor said both of these acts are usually associated with well developed brains. But then on the other hand, your legs are still measuring short. Technically, your mom will be thirty-nine weeks pregnant with you this weekend, and your legs are measuring around thirty-five. Who knows what any of this data means? Anything that deviates a little bit from a computer database's limited reference is red-flagged. God watch and keep you.

Love,
Dad
