Advice for finding out your baby has special needs in utero

I just wrote this for support for a mom in the hospital but I want to place it here for my records. As much as I tried to be prepared for the what if's, I was humbled and still am about everything I have been through Elisa and her sister. There are scary stories out there but there are those full of great promise to give you hope for your baby girl. We just have to take it day by day and try our best to treasure each moment as an extra moment with those we love. The best advice I heard when I was pregnant and worried to death about Elisa is that the human body is a miracle in itself. It is truly an amazing feat to create and foster the growth of another human. The fact we have so much things that could go wrong that do not is another gift. Just focus on appreciating her and what she will accomplish and has already done so far. There is no baby more determined to live in my mind then one born with complications. They fight to survive in utero and will fight to get most that they can out of life. Please let me know if you need anything.
