It's great u feel confident in your sway though XX - isn't it terrible we feel like this when I'm sure in the old days ppl just used to embrace and enjoy their pregnancies regardless of gender !
Anyway im glad i have this place to say how I feel xx

I hear ya! I tell ya, I've seen way too man FAB sways give opposites, and seen sways that I felt would give blue, give pink. It's enough to make your head spin! I think everyone really is fair game, which sucks when you did the best you could!Quote:

Ive been looking at old scans to work out ramzi but i got no idea where the placenta was.. i read it was something like 97 perc correct though or was that debunked? Ive just found out my niece is due the same week as me..my thought straight away is i bet she will have a girl and il have number 7 boy :/ im trying to hold off telling anyone until the harmony results are back..they said they ring with the results and i cant ever imagine them saying a girl..i probably wouldnt believe them lol. I would so love a future without gd raising its head if this is a girl i will finally feel free. Im praying for us all x
Ugh I'm so behind on this thread, congrats to all who have joined!
I have been so sick I've been in the hospital for iv fluids on and off. Thank goodness my brother has some time off school and has come to help with the kids. I was hoping such a difference in my normal morning sickness meant this could be a boy....then we had a scan and I almost passed out....twins! Doctor said he was fairly sure they are fraternal...I bet two girls! I am freaking out. No history of twins except for great grandma!
Omgosh! How exciting!! Congratulations! 😁Quote:

Have you had the test done yet? Is it just the blood test or is a scan included?Quote:

I'm sorry you're really struggling BB. I hope so much you get your daughter this time. I felt like this the entire time swaying. I had such anxiety over everything I put in my mouth and the timing of the foods, BD, everything because I know I'll feel such guilt if this is indeed another boy. I couldn't bear each BFN because I knew it meant another month of anxiety filled swaying. Since my BFN the anxiety has decreased only because I know it's out of my hands. But it's still a huge struggle.Quote:

The lingering feeling of "our we really done now having kids or not" that will come with this not being our daughter. Having to send my tiny boy off for a circumcision, the labor for a child I will struggle to welcome, just everything. It's too much. I woke up in the middle of the night with my heart pounding.
So I can relate. I hope we get our daughters. And that if we don't we learn to cope and at least get past this hard time in our lives that feels like it will never pass until we meet our little girl.

I'm also having a scan on Wednesday and really looking forward to showing our boys the little baby on the screen hopefully il get some

@ Butterflies...so you'll be expecting your results by Friday but will have the test this Tuesday...is that right? If so, that's a super quick turnaround! I'm asking so many questions about this NIPT test because I'm strongly thinking of having one done and just want to know other people's experiences first!
I've called up a place that's relatively local but chatting to other people about their experience is more exciting. Do you have your results sent to you via the post/email as well as the phone call so you have official documentation?
Great questions! I'd like you know too!Quote:

This place is probs the only place we can all vent and say what we really feel inside. This pregnancy is the first one I've actually thought of girls names, with all my boys I could only think of boys names. Strange.
My worries are the results for harmony, like I won't even want to answer the phone even though if I don't find out asap I will go crazy.
I'm dreading the 'it's a boy then, will you try again' 'ha ha a football team' and when they think I can't hear ' bless her she so wanted a girl you can see it in her face'. People are not being nasty we just take it that way cos gender disappointment is real and I want as much time as possible to get over it before baby arrives cos I feel so much guilt when I look at my little men and think how I felt back when I was scanned for gender!
That would be hard not knowing when and where you will be when receiving the news. I'm freaking out and it's still 6 ish weeks away and in a controlled environment. Totally preparing to be crushed.Quote:

Just saw our little bean. Measuring a couple days ahead of when I thought I ovulated. Was told their heartbeat was 169 and now I'm just preparing my heart for a third girl. This is our last baby and I don't want to be disappointed for a third time (I have always wanted a son). Just praying God will prepare my heart even if the whole HB thing is an old wives tale. So thankful baby's hb was strong though!! Can't wait to be 12 weeks and hopefully feeling better
I got mine done on a friday afternoon and results were back to the docs by the Wednesday morning . Im in Melbourne apparently bloods are sent to qland.Quote:

Question do any of you ladies have any thoughts on the Ramzi Theory??
Good Morning lovely ladies!
GMarie - Congrats on twins! So exciting.
Exciting that we will start to get gender results soon! FXd for all of you ladies.
BB, XX, Want, and everyone else...I am so sorry to hear about all of the anxiety you are feeling. I fully know what you are going through. I have not even let myself think about this little one yet. I just know deep down that it is another boy. I am just preparing myself to hear that at delivery. If I even make it that far. I feel so detached from it all, but am having HORRIBLE pregnancy symptoms. This really sucks.
Update on me, I had my 6w scan yesterday. Good news is that the baby is in the uterus. We were very concerned about ectopic. But at the scan only a yolk sac was seen the the gest sac. No fetal pole or anything. So we are still in limbo as to if this pg will even progress. I just don't know how to feel at all.
Huge hugs, Shannshaff! I'm hoping and praying that everything works out and this baby is nice and healthy!

Hey Shan, this happened to me in a previous pregnancy. They brought me back 2 weeks later and saw a heartbeat. Did they give you a time frame for re-scanning?
I'm on board with all of you NIPT ladies! I'm anxious to have it done but freaking out about where I'll be when I get the call. What if I'm at work?! I guess the alternative is to not have it done and wait till an anatomy scan. That doesn't sound ideal either. I'll be 8 weeks tomorrow and my doctor uses the Panorama test which can be done at 9 weeks or after. Anyone know of a reason to wait until 10 weeks? I feel like I've read that in multiple places but not sure the reasoning why?

Where I am it's only done from 10 weeks I'm sure I've seen ladies have it done at 9 weeks though ?
I know I wasn't sure I could cope with waiting for that long but now tommorow is Nearly here I'm thinking omg my future / destiny will be told to me next week over the phone ! Crazy nervous but needs to be done xx

The reasoning behind waiting until 10weeks is in case someone is not sure of their dates. The NIPT tests can be done any time above 9-10 weeks. The reason people often have them earlier is in the case of any genetic abnormality.

My OB said that at 9 weeks he had several people's test coming back inconclusive for gender because not enough fetal DNA was circulating in the maternal blood yet. So the costly test would have to be repeated. And at 10 weeks it was much more accurate.Quote:

I have my harmony test on 18 th April I will be 10 weeks 5 days but dead on 10 weeks is Easter holidays so have to wait. I am to impatient to wait for scan ha
All I keep thinking is I have been so stuffy and no heightened sense of smell which is different than my boys, with them I could give a fox a run for his money by now! And I'm sooooo tired!!!!
So sorry to hear your turmoil continues Shann fx to u x
Good luck BB ... Thinking of you XxQuote:

Maybe I'm reading to much into it but really feel this is a pink one ��
I've had far more nausea this time and I'm bad with smells too - I've also had diarrhoea every morning (sorry tmi!) so I've also had different symptoms and I really felt it was a girl for a while but now I'm back to thinking boy really hoping I'm wrong though !
I've had a bit of bloating but not too much but I am in stretchy jeans now not buttoned ones !
I know ppl say not to read into symptoms but it can't be helped can it ! Xx

Bb I can't help it. With all four boys I had a super human nose and even air con was making me nauseaous where as this time I've had stuffy nose since the beginning and my sense of smell hasn't changed. I've never actually thrown up when been nauseaous previously where as now I just get urge and heave then sick. God I wish I wasn't so obsessed
It's hard not to read into symptoms, isn't it? This pregnancy is nothing like my other three, although there were elements of those that were different from one another too. This time, I've had possibly a vanishing twin making it completely different. I remind myself of this so I don't get too ahead of myself hoping it's a girl for my DH. Knowing my luck, it would've been fraternal twin boys anyway had the one survived 🤣!

It's hard for me to read into symptoms because my two boys pregnancies were night and day different. I have been getting migraines though, and I've never had one during pregnancy before.
I had a dream I had a daughter last night, but instead of being a baby she was between my two boys in age.
How is everyone feeling?
