Afya my NIPT took 10 days. It felt like an eternity!

[afya1]

Urghhhhh. I’m going to suffer for the next 2 weeks. But I’m excited to find out either way, whether it’s a girl or a boy. Just hope for a healthy pregnancy. Excited to see what this little bean will look like.

Has anybody hit their second trimester yet. I’m 10 weeks 3 days now. Just a few weeks left in my first trimester. Time really is flying.

How are your baby bumps? Anyone showing right now? My belly’s popping out at this point now. It’s slowly becoming obvious

I’m still mostly just bloating. I’m 11w3d, so a few more weeks to hit the second trimester. My nausea has improved the last few days, but now I’m having frequent heartburn and struggling with hypoglycemia.

[afya1]

Oh yes, I’m feeling some heartburn too. And my nausea has slowly subsided.

So I went in to get blood drawn for the NIPT. My doctor is using the ClariTest I was actually very confused when the nurse was asking me if I was here to do the ClariTest?! I was like no I’m here for the NIPT. I’m assuming there are diff companies such as Harmony and Panorama? Could any one enlighten me on this.

Nervous to get my results, just hope baby is healthy!

I am almost 15 weeks and its starting to pop, I would like it to hold off a couple more weeks as we havn't told anyone and I work everyday with my soon to be 20 year old daughter so I am worried she will figure things out before then.

I have felt pretty good all pregnancy not really any sickness or heartburn yet but I know the heart burn and acid reflux will come, it did with all my pregnancies. I havn't craved anything much yet either. With my other son i ate so much chocolate and got so huge! So I am trying to hold it together this time as i dont want to have to loose all that again it was really hard!

I hope you all have a great day!

I’m 18 weeks and definitely showing now, but I can still hide it in my work scrubs. So glad to be out of the first trimester, and so happy it’s March and slowly warming up here. Can’t wait to be outside more with the kids.

Treens I gain a lot of weight with my pregnancies, so I laughed at your chocolate comment. With my first two boys all I wanted was cookies, brownies, ice cream, etc. haha. I’m not craving sweets at all this time but I’m still managing to pack on the pounds! I lose it pretty quickly so I don’t stress about it too much.

Afya there are multiple companies that offer the NIPT, so it sounds like your doctor uses that specific company. Can’t wait to hear your results!

I had my NT scan today and got my first trimester screenings back. Babies are both still measuring perfectly and the same heart rates (164), ultrasound was great, low risk for anomalies, and 90% certainty both babies are girls!!!! They wouldn’t give me higher accuracy since it was twins. Since DH wasn’t there I bought outfits and wrapped them as A and B for him to open tonight.

Congratulations BunnyGirl19, what amazing news!

I am 16 weeks today, anyone else having headaches? I seem to go back and forth from low to to pretty bad. Its driving me crazy, I have tried a couple of times taking Tylenol but it doesn't seem to help so I am not taking anything but trying to keep hydrated.

My bump is starting to pop now. I think we are going to tell close family on the first day of spring. It is also my mother-in-law's birthday she will be so happy my youngest has been asking every week for one, her friend just had a little brother and she wants one so bad.

Has anyone got the COVID vaccine? What are everyones thoughts on it. Im going to talk to my doctor about it on the next appointment.

Hoping everyone is feeling good!

I have frequent headaches, but part of that is just my normal. I have post concussion syndrome from a car accident two years ago. I’m noticing when I’m getting pretty bad ones now it’s because my blood sugar is low.

[BunnyGirl19]

I haven’t gotten the covid vaccine, nor do I intend to. There is no long-term data on it, especially with respect to pregnant women, to make an appropriately informed decision. My doctor also told me I couldn’t have the vaccine due to my blood clotting disorder.
