I got a call from my wife in tears this morning, saying that 'something came up' in the ultrasound and that they needed her to go in for some more tests. We did, and were told that our baby had an echogenic heart spot like what has been described here. She had some blood taken, and in the next few days we are going to a larger hospital a few hours away for an more advanced ultrasound and to review the results of the blood tests.

Our doctor was great. He told us that this was the only item of concern on the ultrasound. As my wife is 30, no other tests besides basic blood work were done before our ultrasound.

Its been good to read through these responses. I've gone from being 100% sure that our baby was going to be born with Down's to being hopeful that this is just a scary moment in our 9 month adventure.
