A mutating what??

Just want to start this blog off by saying just how humbled I am in front of our Lord for all the blessings he keeps to give us. Last Friday as I was having lunch with a good high school friend, I noticed I had a voice mail.It was from my normal OBGYN's office Dr. Howell- the last of the test results had come back in and they had some slight abnormalities with them, they would not tell me over the phone what they were, but when I called them back they got me squeezed in for an appointment yesterday (Monday) because he wanted to talk to me face to face about the results. Needless to say I was a lil anxious and was ready to just hear what they had to say- but I knew that this was all in God's hands and whatever it is, He would see us thru it! I'm going to give you all the medical explanation of the blood work- then explain it the way it was explained to me LOL- We went in yesterday and he explained to me that the MTHFR test they had done came back with a mutation on one of the 2 parts there are- this has to do with my body's ability to absorb and break down of the folic acid,and as you know is very crucial to the fetus. The way they treat this is to give a medication that is called (I think) folate- this drug will help with the absorption of the folic acid so that the fetus gets what it is needing. He also told me that in the Antithrombin antigen as well as the Protein C Antigen, my levels were elevated- these are blood clotting detecting test. The way they treat them is by giving me blood thinners, for probably the entire pregnancy, instead of just my 1st trimester. I'm so thankful for our Lord for answered prayers, for the answers we were searching for!! As well as an affirmation that we were already heading in the right direction, in going to have the blood thinners given. Just now we know that it will more than likely be longer than expected- but that is OK by me!!! I will do anything they tell me, to be able to meet our healthy and happy lil baby!! On another note- Please keep my Mom, Grandmother, Uncle Ted, Aunt Sandy, Cousins Teddy and Corey in your prayers- we lost my Aunt Pam on Saturday. She is loved and missed by many! Until next time! God Bless!!
