Oh and PBN if you're around - since I know you are doing the NIPT – could I ask you a couple of questions since you are in QLD too?
I already asked the ultrasound place where we usually do our ob u/s as they do offer nipt – and they usually recommend coming in at 10 weeks do an ultrasound to confirm viability and then they draw the bloods at the office – then you come back for the nuchal a few weeks later. But to avoid having to pay a looot of money for a quick scan at 10weeks (they are probs the most exxy u/s place in Brisbane but are fantastic!) I said that I would do a scan with my fertility specialist around 8 weeks to confirm viability anyways…so, I was thinking come in just to do the bloods at 10 weeks – then come back around 12.5w to get results (including of the Pappa bloods) and the nuchal scan, and discuss the combined results..
Sounds like it could be done that way? How did you do it? I know you see an ob so may make it all a bit different but thought I’d ask (this is part of me being positive it will happen soon and planning that way! Lol)
Ta!
:bowdown:
Hi LMSM! That sounds fine to me. I wouldn't have a viability scan at 10 weeks either seeing as youll have a dating scan done at 8 weeks. If they insist on the scan with the blood draw, I'd go elsewhere to get just the bloods done as it costs enough for it let alone paying for another scan on top of it. I'm having nipt bloods done through Qml (I'll be 10w5d I think?) and have booked a nuchal scan for 11w6d. I'm only getting the basic nipt done ($395) which is processed in Australia, if you go down the road of gen plus ($550) the sample is sent overseas and takes longer for results. I wonder if your going to the ultrasound place my ob sent me (apparently one of the best) to last year in Brisbane (to confirm loss) as I had to go to a family reunion and had family flying in from Melbourne and Adelaide so had to have my miscarriage at my mums during the reunion. That was fun I tell ya, not!!! Especially because it didn't go straightforward but anyway..... past is past and I digress badly from the topic at hand 😂

Thanks hon – the cost is $420 (just checked – it’s gone up from last time I checked which I am sure was just under 400) I think ;)Quote:

I’m sorry about your miscarriage and how it went on :( that would have been terrible – I’ve only ever gone through one and I can honestly say it scarred me for life, I was a zombie for months….
LMSM - I am the same when ttc. There was so much on my mind that getting O was impossible as I was busy thinking about charting, BD timing and what not. Tmi alert - I finished the Job myself [emoji51][emoji51][emoji849] that's y I say we ladies get the job done.[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] I read how helpful it was to O for blue sway and I didn't want dh to do it because I didn't want to lose swimmers [emoji52][emoji52] so Sky to the rescue. [emoji12][emoji12] I know I did O all 3 times we BD the month I conceived.
Pls do it. [emoji1317] I am not sure if it's helped with the sway but I know it helped over all. Sorry about tmi again.
Mommy2apples, Lolla - I can so relate to the no SeX until u/s. I always get dry down there when pregnant and we don't have a lube at home right now. I m
also not interested in having sex before my first appointment so
I m not even buying it myself. I told dh in the beginning that it hurts like hell and he agreed to stay away. But he wanted to do it a few days back so we gave it a go with the condom and it was ok so I was fine. Last night he initiated again and I feel bad saying
no so I went with it the same way but it burnt so so bad and I just ran to the bathroom and spent two hours there. Saw a tiniest spot on the tissue and I freaked out and told him. He got scared too. I told him that it's not happening again and not to even ask
because I feel bad saying no. He is so
scared of me now. [emoji12][emoji12][emoji12][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] and said I won't touch you until your appointment. [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]
I just had two slices of pizza and 2 small pieces of the cake I made yesterday. I spent two hours cooking
N cleaning and was so hungry [emoji849][emoji849] Now I m feeling bad. What is wrong
With me. [emoji52][emoji52][emoji52]Going for a walk now. I m an idiot. I tried to
Stop but the bloody cake is so
So so delicious. [emoji853][emoji853][emoji853]

That one (my 2nd) was definately the worst and the circumstances that went along with it is what really messed with my head, I won't rehash all the shitty details but it really knocked me around mentally, like I've never been before and I had quite the crappy childhood. By the 3rd loss I kinda was like ok that's that and came through it just fine :) I think a deep and strong resilience can stem from overcoming trauma and can be very empowering. Not sure if any of that makes sense but it does to me. I may be a little cray cray though 😂😂😂

This is the place I went to :) They were wonderful and ended seeing an ob in the same building at very short notice.
