Part 2: Due January, February & March 2019

[Kjoseph09]

Hey ladies! I’m 8 weeks today. Go for my first appt and u/s on Thursday. A little anxious just to know that everything is good. And hopefully only 1 healthy baby 😬 Hoping to have my NIPT in the next few weeks. Seems like most are done around 9 or 10 weeks?...........I need to know the sex! I find myself analyzing this pregnancy with my two previous boy pregnancies and it is driving me crazy! Other than that I am super tired and very bloated. Look like I’m 15 weeks pregnant already. Luckily no nausea 🤞🏻
Looking forward to finding out what everyone is having!

Gender speculation by family and friends is exactly why I'm getting the panorama done. Once we know if Bub is healthy and the gender via bloods I will announce. So far only dh and I know we are pregnant and it's really nice having this secret between us actually. In both previous pregnancies we announced pretty much at the bfp but this time I wanted our last to be announced a bit later mainly due to gender pressure but also due to our age I'd like to get the all clear first.

If I had pp I would probably have gone team green to see what that's like but with the possibility of gd hanging over me I just can't torture myself for 9 months. I need to know, react in private and then process it before birth.

It is so hard to decide I know girls and I hope you all find peace with your decisions.

ABC how are you feeling?

Anyone taking zofran? I started a couple of days ago on 4 mg and I can't believe the difference it makes to ms!

I love the idea of team green and maybe if I already had one of each I would do that but I can’t wait that long to find out and would also like to find out privately since I am not really sure what my reaction will be.

Hello Ladies! I am feeling freaked out about getting a BFP very dark line on what I think was probably 10dpo. I had a m/c at 12 weeks in December and m/c at 5 weeks in May of this year. I did my first beta today and waiting on those numbers and go back on Wednesday to get doubling numbers. I am no longer concerned about a m/c as I am about whether or not I may have conceived twins. I knew there was a possibility of twins because of my age (35) but I have been reading that its also very possible the cycle after a m/c. I actually didnt expect to conceive this cycle and really would have rather waited another cycle before conceiving but I am just freaked out know after reading some of these stories of the possibility i may be pregnant with twins. I don't want twins and it would be a major hardship on me to conceive twins.

I'm so sorry if I worried you all! And kikurose, if you're still around, I am so, so sorry for your loss. ♡

We did end up doing NIPT and all is normal thankfully, though I didn't check gender and am semi regretting it after reading all of your convos! HB still measuring in 150s which makes me anxious everytime that it's a girl lol

But while baby is good, I had a bit of a scare hence my radio silence. I blacked out after walking alot in the heat one day and hit my head very hard on the ground. We're worried my blood pressure is getting too low (it's always really low in pregnancy for me) and I was probably pushing too hard because I never know how to take it easy lol. I "luckily" hit the front of my head and not more perilous sides like the sides or back, but I have never fainted in my life -- so very scary!

Oh my goodness Tp how scary! So good to hear from you and congrats on a healthy bean xx

It's getting exciting with all these scans coming up girls!

Teampinkdream sorry for your losses and your anxiety around twins. I had a very dark hpt at 8 dpo with ds2 ( and was 36) and had a singleton so don't worry too much. Did you take clomid?

[kittendreams]

Sorry kitten just read that I wrote punk thoughts instead of pink! Heehee

So my appointment went well. My OB said she wants me to do the Harmony test as since I had a high nuchal fold in my last pregnancy it's possible that we could get that again and it will just remove the anxiety from that. So I'll be going next week for that.
I ticked gender so they test it but still on the fence of wanting to know. But kittens point of finding out sooner or later anyway makes sense... knowing or not knowing doesn't actually change it.

The one thing I'm not sure of ticking for is the XXY (a cause of Klinefelter syndrome)
Monosomy X (a cause of Turner syndrome) result. As I'm not sure if finding that out will make any difference except causing anxiety... I looked up those syndromes and they don't seem that bad... there were even a few celebrities with them. What have you ladies done?

Simkan haha I knew you meant pink!

I'm getting the basic nipt screening but not the screening for Edwards syndrome I think it's called? Not sure about Turner syndrome I'll have to check.

[kittendreams]

You sound convinced it's a boy But you still have every chance of this being your girl!! You had a great sway!!!!! Keeping everything crossed for you!

ABC I know I keep thinking of baby as a boy I just can't shake it! Felt the same with ds1 and ds2. I think it's a defence mechanism to protect my heart.

Good luck with your can Kjoseph! My first scan is Thursday too- I'm beyond excited and nervous to see my Lo too! I will be 9+2 and getting nipt bloods drawn the same day.

I'm the same analysing every little symptom with my boy pregnancies and this one is exactly the same as the others so far.
