Blimie was born on January 27, 2009 at 42 weeks, after a very tense pregnancy. It was at 8-9 weeks’ gestation that I first found out that something was very wrong. My ob/gyn detected something on the ultrasound that he didn’t like and arranged for a more accurate ultrasound the next day

hat is Trisomy 18?  Trisomy 18 is a chromosomal abnormality. It is also called Edwards syndrome, after the doctor who first described it.
