[tri-med] Re: Just found out we're pregnant (happy&worried)

I had a baby girl 5 months ago and she shows no signs so far of  trisomy 8. But 
the geneticist told us that out sons condition was due to a spontaneous 
mutation during early embryo growth and that neither myself or husband could 
have passed it on, but this didn't stop me worrying. My friend has also just 
had a ' typical ' baby after having her son 3 years ago with a genetic 
condition due to one of them being a carrier.

This past Wednesday we found out that I am the one that has the balanced 
translocation that was passed on to Kira, ending in a unbalanced translocation 
of chromosome 7 and 10. The genetic counselor and I were also discussing future 
pregnancies not knowing that I was already pregnant. Today we found that out. 
My husband also just lost his job, so right now was not a right time. Things 
happen for a reason but I am so worried that this baby will have what Kira has. 
I want to know if after having a baby with a chromosome abnormality had a 
typical baby.
