Thanks everybody for your support.

I went for another U/S on Monday, and the defect is still there. The
doctor said there is still a 30% chance that it'll go away, but to
start thinking of what we want to do if it doesn't.
She booked me for another U/S in two weeks, and for the CVS the same
day, should we want to do that. The CVS has a 1% risk of miscarriage,
plus it only gives you some answers about some specific genetic
problems that could be associated with the abdominal wall defect, but
it doesn't exclude many others. She said they only can be sure of what
else (if anything) is wrong by looking at the baby when he's born.
DH and I are just so torn right now.
