Hello All!!!!!!!!!

So, for those of you who aren't on facebook, the big news is that on March 18th, I gave birth to a handsome, completely healthy baby boy! We named him Carter and he was 8 pounds 1 ounce, 20 inches long! He is absolutely amazing and doing really really well! When the pediatrician checked him over, I asked if we needed to do further testing about the EIF and he laughed at me and said "Why??? He's perfectly healthy!! I can't believe they even told you about it!". He was actually kind of miffed that I was concerned about it at all. Carter does have a very slight heart murmur (which is NOT tied to the EIF in any way at all) so we had to do an ECG, which came back entirely normal. This is something that runs in my family though as my 3 year old has a heart murmur, my dad, my sister-in-law.....they are very very commmon. So no concerns at all and I spent the last 4 months worrying over absolutely nothing!!!!!
I hope that my story can help everyone relax a little bit more and please, try to enjoy your pregnancy! This marker is so weak and really means nothing!
Well, I'll be checking back often to see how all of you ladies are doing! I can't wait to hear more fantastic birth stories and more little babies coming! Take care of yourselves!!!
