anyone with the same experience?

I have posted a couple of times about my pregnancy, and i just wanted to let everyone know that I have a brand new beautiful baby girl to join her beautiful big sister!!  We are all so excited to have her with us finally!

My question is this.  I took Dex at the beginning of my pregnancy, had the CVS done at 10weeks and got test results back from Cornell that the baby was a female carrier but unaffected.  I stop taking the dex.  After I delivered my husband came to me and said that this beautiful little girl also had virilization and that they were going to do blood tests - we got the preliminary results in and are pretty sure that she will be a salt waster as well. 

While something in the back of my mind throughout this pregnancy told me that this was going to happen I have to say that I am disappointed because we had not financially planned having extra doc appointments etc which is one of the reasons why we wanted to do the CVS and find out soon.  As many of you have experienced, the extra costs with my first child were surprising and really tough to get through - if we had known about the CAH when the CVS was done we would have handled finances differently through the rest of the pregnancy.

Has anyone else had this experience of a CVS coming back incorrect?
