O meu bebé. My baby

O Artur nasceu no dia 17 de Março de 2009. Gravidez normal, o parto foi induzido pois ja estava de 41 semanas e 4 dias e acabou por nascer de cesariana pois tinha pouca vontade de sair. ;)
Ao 3º dia fizeram analises e viram que ele estava com uma infecção e tinha icterícia. Ficou internado a fazer antibiótico para a infecção e "luzes" para a icterícia. Como nasceu com a fontanela muito grande (moleirinha) fizeram uma eco transfontanelar e decidiram fazer vários exames para ter a certeza que nada se passava com o Artur. Chamaram entre outros uma médica de genética que mandou fazer analises para ver o cariótipo e possíveis doenças metabólicas. No dia que teve alta (já com 15 dias) soubemos pela medica de genética que o Artur tinha uma delecção no cromossoma 1 mas sem grandes detalhes... (continua amanhã)

Artur was born on 17-03-2009. It was a normal pregnancy and he was born by c-section after the labour was induced cause I was already on my 41week and 4 days, had to be a c-section cause Artur didn't want to come out. ;)
At his 3rd day the doctor did some blood tests and found out he had an infection and he had jaundice. So we had to be in the hospital to take antibiotics for the infection and do make the jaundice treatment. Since he had a large fontanelle (soft spot) they did a echo to his brain and decided to do all sort of exams to see if everything was ok. One of the doctors they called was the genetics specialist that did some blood exams like karyotype and metabolic diseases. On the day they send him home (he was already 15 days old) the genetics doctor told us he had a deletion on the chromosome 1 but not really the name of the disease cause they were still completing the karyotype study... (to be continued tomorrow...)
