Abbey it's gonna be great just relax hun!! Dnt worry about anything
Let's us know how it goes fx

 

[MrsHudson]

Hope everyone is doing good today!

I'm so happy I am 12 weeks today! I know it's not technically the beginning of second tri but it's the week I've been waiting for. Call me crazy but I think I may have felt baby last night. It was like little itty bitty flutters I've never felt before in the middle left of my huge bump. My uterus sits over to the left so I would think that's where baby is but who knows.

I'm so excited to have my next appt on Tuesday. I just want to hear that little heart beat again.

 

[Pearly86]

Awesome mrs h
Everything sounds so great!! Hearing baby's heart beat is indeed the best thing
You felt something www that's so cute I wish I get to feel too as we are exactly same in our weeks!!

I am also waiting for weeks to pass by soon

It's so hard keeping track between the fb group and this group with who is here and there or here but not there or there but not here lol. But as for people on the BnB group and fb group we are at 4 girls and 1 boy!

Ok update. All was great at our NT scan. Back to the original due date of August 8th so I am 12w6d today. Heard a strong heartbeat and the fluid they measure was 1.5 mm (I think it's mm) he said they want to see under 3mm. Also the sex was very obvious today at not even 13 weeks! It's a boy!! So the Chinese predictor was definitely off! Here's a couple pics...

Everyone's finding out before me and I'm due in July!

It's so awesome, though!

Had a weird thing happen to me yesterday and wondering if it's some kind of blood sugar issue I was having? I wasn't necessarily hungry but started to cook dinner and I started shaking, like my hands were shaking really bad. I had to eat a lot to get my hands to stop shaking. And my head was pounding all day, too.

Very stressed out over here. My paycheck is missing from my last job (was supposed to get the final one today) so now I can't afford my rent due Sunday, and then school starting on Monday, I am not a happy camper. Trying to figure out where this check went as it was supposed to be direct deposited in my bank account this morning.

 

[Abbey08]

Oh no greats!! Maybe it's anxiety related? Since your very stressed out? I think you could make a call into your doc office and mention it just to be on the safe side!! But also blood sugar stuff (although I'm not familiar with that) sounds like a very good possibility too!! Hope you get your paycheck situation sorted out. That's never good!!

i think i pretty much will forgo the 12 NT scan. She said that they would want it done before 14 weeks. the only day I can do it is the day i turn 14 weeks. so, I will just go with 18 week study. get the maternity 21 maybe,, called around and it will cost me about $300 with insurance. Kyla. do you know how you got your all covered, or do you think it was because it was the panorama test..I may ask when i get there at this appointment.. as it is not my ob/gyn, they refer to specialist for all that.. but i will ask and see if panorama is available. seems so far away to do all that testing. A part of me hopes if i mad appointment for 14 weeks they would do the matenrity 21 that day

 

[techheather]

Sass..i just asked about low blood sugar yesterday, as i go hypoglycemic at times..they said it will happen and just eat every 3 hours. that i shouldn't be concerned unless it happens everyday.

I ended up getting the materniT21 test today, not the Panorama. Nurse said they cannot tell gender from that test but I have read otherwise so I called back and she has to look at the order and see how the paperwork was sent. I will be really annoyed if I could have found out gender but they just didn't bother to check the box or something. I don't really know how it works...waiting for them to call me back.

It sounds like your blood sugar got too low. I get that even when I am not pregnant and it feels like I could eat a horse before I feel human again. Definitely try to keep some snacks with you and take a few bites of something every few hours, even if you are not really hungry.

Hope the paycheck issue works out. How's your spotting? I haven't seen anything since last weekend thank goodness although I've been really really wet the past few days.

 

[techheather]

Wonders. i was told that it does do gender. so hopefully it does.

Me too and a couple girls from the facebook group had it done and know the sex. I just wonder does it picked up automatically when they run the other tests or do they have to specify to look for the gender? Still waiting for them to call me back and clarify. I don't understand how the nurse doesn't know it can detect gender?

Yeah I'm definitely thinking it was blood sugar issues bc I wasn't stressed at all yesterday. I've been making sure to eat more today and so far I'm feeling a lot better.

No more spotting at all, only lasted 2 days, thank goodness!

My text is from the maternity21 company and you do have to ask for the gender to be added and they do check an additional box. I'd be so mad if I were you too wonders. Maybe if you catch it now they can add it? It just seems in general many doctors and nurses are not fully in the loop about these types of tests.

 

[Mrs. Eddie]

Congrats on a wonderful scan Abbey!

Hope you find that pay cheque Greats! I feel like I'm going to be waiting forever to find out the sex too...

 

[techheather]

I'll have to remember that about maternity 21 when I schedule it.

So annoying, I'm sure they didn't check it. The nurse called me back and said she basically is not sure what a bunch of idiots. I know I'll be able to find out either way at some point but they should know their tests! Maybe the perinatologist will be able to tell me on her blood tests. I go Monday for my NT scan.

 

[Abbey08]

Wonders... My sonogram doctor was able to tell me the sex at 12w6d. He told me at 8w3d he would be able to at 13w... not sure if why he can tell so early compared to others but sonograms are all he does. Maybe urs will be able to tell to!!

Missed this somehow, but congrats! I just changed the front page and you had predicted baby would be a girl. Nope all boy! Congrats on a healthy baby!

 

[Sass827]

Congrats abbey! Those are amazing pictures. I can't believe you can see so much so early.
