glad there's a few of us :)
Hey ladies, I hope you're all well?
I'll try to read back and catch up. I'm useless at keeping up and carving out time to check in.
My blood test results have come back with high markers for Down's syndrome so we've booked an NIPT and should have the results in two weeks.
So happy baby is healthy PBN, fabulous news for you and the family x
sorry to hear about your blood test results 4b1p that must be very worrying for you, hopefully the NIPT will come back all ok, will you be finding out gender with your NIPT results? my fingers are crossed for you that everything is ok xx
Ash - Hope the increased emotions is a good sign! So soon until your scans!!!
Nacire - Hope the days fly until the 15th July.
Sky - That's horrible! They should just book everything in and be optimistic! I'm 35 too, but don't feel that old, especially when I have friends have number 1.
Pbn3 - OMG yay!!!! Your dream 3rd baby!!! Congrats lovely :cheerteam: PLEASE find out!!! LOL
So glad you could tell your boys. The excitement will build as you can talk about it all the time now.
dreamingella - Love how you told your boys and that people have been positive
4blue1pink - Sorry to hear and try not to worry too much. Fingers crossed the results come back okay!
My HCG from 14dpo came back as 277! Yay! Had some light brown CM this morning, which had me worried, but I'm okay now.
I have repeat bloods tomorrow.
We were team green, but the results will be sent directly to me so I expect the gender will be on them.Quote:

yes how could i forget that! youve been team green with all your babies havnt you 4b1p :) oh thats annoying.. could they cross out the gender bit on the paper work before sending? your doing NIPT for medical reasons which arent linked to gender so i see no reason why you should be forced to have gender on there if you dont want to know, when are your results?
Test is tomorrow, results will be around ten days I think? I never thought to ask but I don't see why they couldn't just not include gender. (Yes, we've been team green every time)
The doctor who gave me the results was talking as if it's a done deal, so I'm not sure this will do anything other than confirm but I'll know for sure I guess.
Pbn. I always love your interest and care. I feel so good when someone cares as much. I wish I could get CD. I will ask from different sources this time. Last time I wasn't much aware. But you people really made everything special. I am loving this pregnancy and be with you all. I will definitely check for private scan who provide CD. You know this time my sonugrapher was such rude. Just kept watching and didn't talk.

Wow pbn congatulations. But really being team green is very difficult. How you are controlling?
Ash your gender scan is on 22nd July?

Sumbal yes gender will be 22nd for me [emoji4]

i think its worth asking them tomorrow 4blue1pink, i dont see why you should have to find out gender (if you dont want too) when it is completely irrelevant to any potential diagnosis.
doctors can be very black and white with these things cant they but nothing is 100% until its confirmed if that makes sense? i hope the wait for the nipt results isnt going to be too stressful or upsetting for you, we are all here for you if you need us xx
4blue1pink- Sorry about the test. Will be praying for you and the baby. I agree with 4 blue2pink that nothing is 100% until confirmed. And we try and over analyze because we are so scared as it is. Hugs. Will be praying hard. We are here for you. Love!

Pbn - How sweet that you shared the wonderful news with your boys. I bet they will be excited as they see your belly growing. You don't pay any attention to those comments. You know how happy we all are for you. This baby has so so so much love around him. We don't care about the nonsense comments. I love your reply though. That's what I say to anyone who talks about the gender. They don't realize that it's not all easy breezy to carry and worry about the well being of your little baby.

I'm sorry to hear 4blue1pink! Hope & pray all turns out ok! Do you know what test it will be? I would def ask if they could leave the gender part out for you!
Dreaming-love that your oldest is excited now that he knows they'll share the name!! How exciting for him to share the news & wonderful that friends had a positive reaction. I really wanted to wait until I knew gender to share, but didn't happen! However, none of my coworker's know yet, so I'll share gender & pregnancy at the same time in August. I work with at 2 diff schools of wonderful coworker's & excited to share!
Pbn-yay for telling your boys!! You know they'll get excited when baby starts to kick & move!! I really want to know what you're having too, but I also so excited for you to have that exciting moment at birth finding out! That day will be extra amazing. Since you will be happy with either gender, I feel that this is an awesome plan for you to wait [emoji172]
Nacire-I know, it's always nice to sleep in your own bed! So, I was really sick, throwing up, terrible food aversions for 15 weeks with DS1 and barely sick with DS2, but not much of an appetite. So I believe that each pregnancy is different & not related to gender. With that being said, I do have an appetite this time around and even get "hangry." Lol. Salty foods, cookies & cakes sound the best! I would love for the appetite difference to mean something lol, we'll see.... excited for your upcoming appt, hope this week flies by!!
Ash-speaking of appts...can't wait for your appt tomorrow, hope you get a nice tech Fx!!! [emoji4]
Sky-hope the week flies by for you too!! Pay no attention to that lady...glad you're trying to keep your mind on other things! Big HUGS [emoji173]
Iwant4-Did I mention how happy I am that your here???! So happy for you! Glad there's no more brown CM. Can't wait to hear your levels tomorrow!
Sumbal-so glad you are enjoying this pregnancy! Just take it all in & embrace the growing bump!
Hugs 4blue1pink ! Praying its not so and ur bub is healthy. Did u get the quad screen ? I believe the quad screen is only 80% accurate and its just a screening test or something so that's why more confirmatory follow up tests r done.
I so hope and pray that ur follow up tests come negative

Regarding appetite, I agree that it doesn't indicate gender but it's hard to not look into it. I know for me this is the first pregnancy I've had where I'm not raiding my fridge every hour. I hardly have an appetite and when I do eat, it's very little and I don't like the feeling of being full. I'm thinking it's mostly due to swaying before pregnancy and just getting used to the fewer calories, right? Anyone else feeling the same? As of today I'm only 5w5d so maybe there isn't much of an increase yet anyway.
4blue1pink, I really hope everything turns out ok. From what I understand the blood test will alway give out a percentage of risk, regardless if a condition exists or not, but good to know they are following up. I'll be praying for you and baby! [emoji1374][emoji93]
babypink ive had a meat aversion since doing the le diet for my first sway last year!! swaying definitely alters things and i think that can only be a good sign :)
Lolla yeaaaah true. How's you feeling? What cravings are around?

Ash excited. Countdown starts. 22 is not far now.

Babypinkno3 - my last 2 pregnancies I was extremely sick and I always dropped weight in the beginning of my pregnancies. I had big food cravings, but couldn’t keep anything down. I couldn’t stomach certain smells like, detergent, soap, lotion, deodorant (only lavender or Tide scent I hated the most). This time around I don’t even feel pregnant. I have zero appetite, and if I do eat it’s only because I know I should. I went to the grocery store on Saturday thinking maybe if I saw things id want it. Well Nope I didn’t come home with anything besides strawberry lemonade, and popsicles. I do feel like swaying before this pregnancy has something to do with it for me. I also remember in my last pregnancy not feeling pregnant and one day the sickness just it me like a ton of bricks. Another thing I was crazy emotional with my boys. I cried at romantic movies, even watching Friends lol but this time I have zero emotion and I feel super relaxed.
Lolabelle - I totally don't think appetite has anything to do with gender either. Just curious sometimes. It's crazy how different pregnancy can be.
4blue1pink - Prayers and BIG (((HUGS))) everything turns out okay..
IWant4Kids - Thank you so much! Good to hear everything going great with your pregnancy. I think our due dates might be around the same time :)
I am sorry to hear about your blood tests. I will be praying for you that the nipt test will come back with good news. 🤞Quote:

I was on the LE diet & reallllly limited what I ate, but wasn't ever hungry. Now, it's like I have a hole in my stomach that hurts wanting to be fed...but not everything in sight...particular cravings. And as you asked Sumbal-I've been wanting noodles and tomato sauce, cheesy rice, fresh strawberries, strawberry whole fruit popsicles, strawberry cake, choc chip cookies, pizza, chips & salsa...there is this tangy, green, mild dip (cilantro, citrus) at Moe's that tastes awesome!!! I'm trying to keep control...but I seem to have a thought of something new I want haha! I actually had lost a few lbs at my first appt on June 30th & was surprised! Lol
Sky-I'm like you though, I've tried to cook a few things & the smells bother me!! DH will cook or I make things that don't require a lot of effort where I'm stuck smelling it!!!
Bluebooties & 4blue1pink-that's what I was thinking & why I was wondering what test. I've heard some of the other earlier tests aren't always accurate, but the MaterniT21 is supposed to be pretty accurate. Praying for good news!!!! [emoji173]
My first 2 pregnancies were similar lots of 1st trimester MS and food smell aversions.
My 3th pregnancy that ended as a missed miscarriage. I only had back pain and absolutely nothing otherwise. My 4th pregnancy (DD3) absokutely no symptoms and a huge appetite. I gained the most weight in this pregnancy bcoz of HE diet and then just bcoz good appetite in pregnancy.
This pregnancy i just have some odd taste in my mouth and lots of fatigue.
🎀 2010 🎀 2012 🎀 2016 🤰due 2018
Yes the triple screen and quad screen (offered to almost all ladies arent very accurate. The maternityt21 and other nipt tests ( offered to selected pts at risk) are.

4blue1pink I accidentally hit thanks in this post then like while trying to fix it 😩 I'm sorry to hear your blood test came back with high markers. I hope you are doiig ok. My friend had the same happen and it was a long wait for the NIPT to come back with the all clear. Thinking of you xxooQuote:

Nacire hope you find some appealing foods soon! I did the same thing a few days ago. Went to the shop with nothing in mind because nothing appealed. Think I ended up eating toast 😂
Sumbal eeeeeeeeekkk!!!! Let us know if you book a private scan in a couple weeks!!!!
Momoffourboyz and countrymommy have you had you 12w scans?

Bluebooties do you get a scan at your appt this month? September feels like such a long time away but I'm sure it will fly by.

Oh Gosh those bloody comments! I know mine are coming but we haven't announced to dh family because we know they will be the ones to make them unfortunately,..all my friends and family are so accepting as long as we're happy. why can't people think before they speak? :p This will be our 5th boy (if it is a boy) and I know people will wish we were having a girl instead. I think there is so much social pressure to have a balanced family nowadays but honestly a happy, healthy baby is all anyone could wish for. Congratulations on your good news I'm glad everything is going well. Isn't it just the best news? So thrilled for you and don't listen if anyone does say anything, just focus on that and that your lovely family will be happy no matter what anyone else says. And how sweet about your boys :)Quote:
