Many of the things posted here are so rare that we only find them by seeking them out i would not worry. Congrats though!This is not a good thread to be reading while newly pregnant

Thanks to you both. Ultrasounds thus far have been good and I'll be doing the NIPT screening soon. I'll feel much better once that is cleared. anyways I don't want to derail the thread with PLing.
Going back to Tres's case. I find it intresting one of his brains is "hamburger", as stated. It seems this birth defect is causing mirror image type duplication in the cranial area (just from my breif glance at google, im likely very wrong) so is there any reason why one brain would be more functional than the other? I would love to see a cat scan of his head.

Congratulations, Kiwi fren! You and the bub will be fine. These crazy complications are beyond rare. ❤*stress sigh*

Semper fi to all expectant mom kiwis, may the kid you are cooking be free of spudery and you be able to easily access all medical care you need

Congratulations!
It's quite possible the underdeveloped side is mainly within the underdeveloped side. So if they'd have split, it would be it's very own tard... And probably dead because it's possible there wasn't the ability to save it.

Ugh, is this from Wikipedia? Not to be too autistic, but the gene is Sonic Hedgehog (SHH), not "Sonic the Hedgehog". It's also why scientists are strongly discouraged from giving genes silly names. It might be funny to you and the guys in the lab, but try explaining to a mother that her baby is fucked beyond repair because of a "Sonic Hedgehog mutation".

Yes, that includes serious genetic defects. Under the guise of "disability rights", they want kids without brains or hearts born. They're trying to get a ballot amendment next year, so good luck to that.
I forgot to mention: Louisiana, Tennessee and Mississippi voted - i.e. it was put to voters - about whether the Constitution protects abortion. All said no. Louisiana voted on that in 2018. Pro choice advocates should've paid attention but no. So you won't see results there.
The maternity desert also applies to Texas. They cut off Medicaid six months after you give birth there.

I remember when they discovered it and people found the name amusing and that it was fine because it "didn't do anything". Of course that aged poorly. Thanks Sanic for man-made horrors beyond our comprehension.

Sanic gene controls early splitting of body parts into the right shape and number, right? So someone having extra fingers or toes also has a Sanic mutation, right (just a much more harmless one)?
Is holoproscecephaly also a Sanic mutation?

Not necessarily; there are other genes that can cause failure of the hands and feet to develop properly.
You are correct that SHH mutation is among the most common causes of holoprosencephaly.
One of the other important diseases caused by mutation in SHH is a childhood embryonal brain tumor called medulloblastoma. Kids with SHH mutated tumors have an intermediate prognosis compared to those in other groups. Medulloblastoma is by far the most common brain tumor in kids.

Wait so does that mean the kids are born with the brain tumors? How treatable are they?

No, in most cases, the mutation is somatic, meaning it develops after conception as a spontaneous event. In adults, that "event" can be environmental, but in young children, it's unclear why it happens. All cells that are born from a single mutated cell will carry the same mutation. In effect, this means that the tumor tissue has the mutation but the rest of the cells of the body are normal. There are rare cases where an infant with a germline (inherited) SHH mutation develops medulloblastoma within the first months of life, but inherited medulloblastoma is very uncommon.
Medulloblastoma is divided into 4 subtypes depending on the characteristics of the tumor tissue. Each subtype has a different prognosis, with SHH mutated tumors falling somewhere in the middle. Infants with SHH mutated tumors actually tend to do very well, with a 5 year overall survival of 80%. Older children and adults fare worse.
Here's an infographic showing the different subtypes and their prognosis. As you can see, the different subtypes tend to affect different age groups.
This is a pretty good paper if you want to do a deep dive.
Edited to add another paper and to say that Group 3 medulloblastoma is the "worst" subtype with poor survival.

I found this too horrifying to believe on face, so I looked it up. I hate to be that guy, but I think the "six months" claim is inaccurate.
Guess you better hope for an uneventful delivery of a healthy baby. I try not to sperg about politics too much here, and I do often find food for thought in the diverse viewpoints expressed on the Farms, but this is atrocious.

Yeah I know the coverage only being for 2 months after giving birth is a big factor in maternal mortality in TX and similar states, and extending the coverage to a full year is a big thing people who want to combat the maternal mortality crisis are pushing for.
Unfortunately Texas is more concerned with forcing women to gestate potato fetuses than giving new moms healthcare so they don't die.

TWO MONTHS!?! What the hell. I was still bleeding and my obgyn didnt even want me driving yet.

You can't always have your cake and eat it.
Fiscally, one could blame it on them not having an state income tax. But it's more of along the lines of fundie politics than anything else, considering how someone went to New Mexico or something for an abortion.
