Fyi: Turner's syndrome is something you want to know about. There a 98% miscarriage rate with it and commonly in late 1st and 2nd trimesters. If these girls survive to birth, many have heart defects. There is a small percentage of a "healthy" turners girl.

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 GOSH. First of all SO GLAD to hear from you - I was getting so worried!!!! Second oh my gosh that's so scary!! I'm glad you are OK! Do they think everything is ok now with your injury? Strange - just yesterday my Dad passed out after his HR and blood pressure plummeted and he was in the ER for like 24 hours. They think his was from a combination of dehydration and the wrong dosage of his blood pressure meds but it was very scary as well! (I wasn't with him but apparently he was out for several minutes!). The heat this summer is really scary too!! Take care of yourself and please try to take it easy!!! Can they give you something to regulate your blood pressure or bring it up some?

Glad the NIPT went well!! Are you thinking now you might want to find out gender now? I know there are places that do gender scans as early as 14 or 15 weeks if you get impatient

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.

Welcome teampinkdream!! I can understand being worried. I got my BFP at 8 dpo and it was dark within a couple of days after that. My first few betas were very high and as it turns out, I am carrying twins. But - I was also on Clomid (and conceived about 2 months after a miscarriage). I did a lot of reading around that time (before my first ultrasound) about twins and HCG levels. Yes, high HCG levels (and thus dark HPT lines) CAN mean twins but you can also have high HCG levels with a singleton as well!! There is just no way of knowing until you have an ultrasound. Even when I went for my first ultrasound I asked my fertility doctor before she started the scan if she thought - based just on my HCG levels - that I was having twins and she said no because she sees a lot of women with high HCG that are carrying singletons. So it's impossible to know at this point. Keep breathing and try not to stress too much yet! Will you have an early ultrasound?

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.

Yea I get that. With DS1 I just knew it was a boy. With DS2 I maintained a secret, very strong hope that he was a girl but I told everyone that I knew he was a boy. I think that was in large part self-protection. Even so most of my family still knew that I was disappointed when we found out he was a boy. Sigh. GD sucks.

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!

Kjoseph YAY that's exciting that your first scan is coming up!! I am so bloated too - it's crazy!! Today my mom looked down at my stomach and said "wow - you have a pooch!" LOL - she knows I'm pregnant

Let us know how your scan goes!!!

[teampinkdream]

Thanks for all your replies. I did not take clomid but this was first cycle after m/c. My Dr doesn't usually like to do early scans. She prefers to wait until 9-12 week for first scan but I will definitely be asking/begging for an early scan. Just gonna pray real hard that that dark positive combined with the fact I conceived first cycle after m/c isn't an indication of twins. It's just of all the things that you think of after the fact that you should or shouldn't have done. When TTC you have one track mind and that it to get pregnant.

Haha, definitely wanting to stay Team Green for my sanity still. I still get depressed even just thinking about this being a girl -- having it confirmed will be too much. At least pretending I have a chance still can keep me distracted as I weather each week of gestation!! I think just seeing how quickly I did get the results made me wonder... PLUS how crazy I am that this is where I'm at in my life. I alwaysalwaysalways said I'd get an NIPT at 10 weeks with my next pregnancy and then "make a decision." Now look at me!

And midwives said if I pass out again they'd want me to do a full cardiac workup (I do have a VERY small murmur, but it obviously hasn't caused me any issues before, even in previous pregnancies!). I'm hoping it never happens again though... that was terrifying, and all I could think of was what would happen if it happened while I was holding DD, or if I was in the middle of the street? (I had JUST crossed the street when it did happen!)

We decided not to have blood tests but the not knowing gender is really messing with me. I am sure it's another boy but still clinging to hope that it's a girl and I just don't want to be devastated when we have our anatomy scan and cry in front of the tech if we do decided to find out gender then (was originally going team green but hubby wants to find out). Hoping everyone who gets blood results hears that their bubs are healthy and they get their desired gender.
Has anyone else ever had their morning (all day) sickness get worse after 12 weeks instead of better? 14 weeks today (survived the first trimester) but finding my morning sickness is not improving, if anything is getting worse! Have vomitted 3 times today! So over feeling nauseated all day.
Hoping everyone is doing ok.

This did happen to me with DD fyi While I never puked with her, my nausea was WORSE between 12-16 weeks (though I had it from I swear conception). This was the worst too because it was right during Thanksgiving here in America and right into the Christmas holidays -- so I sure didn't get to enjoy the food that year haha!

Hi ladies! I was so happy to wake up and have 2 full pages of posts to catch up on! First, TP! I am so glad you’re okay. That is scary. I had one pregnancy where I consistently overdid it and finally got a firm talking to from my OB...and husband! [emoji23]
With the nipt bloodwork tests, I feel like my OB checked them all. Might as well have a full range of knowledge. This round, she doesn’t even want me to take it. She said it’s just gotten so ridiculously expensive in our area. They did a “peace of mind” promotion with my last pregnancy so we got it for $100 cash. But that’s gone now. So we’re just going to skip it. And she’s going to skip the 13 week scan as well. She just says they are becoming so rare now with the blood tests. She’s confident we would catch anything at the anatomy scan. So 7 more weeks for that.
Nausea is tapering off and I’m learning what works and what doesn’t. Zofran, BTW, is horrible for constipation. Wish I would’ve gotten a huge heads up on that one!! Dang. Fruit is helping me. Especially tart ones. But my boobs just decided to show up and get extremely sore! Ouch. Thought that was weird at nearly 12 weeks!
