2017 Junebugs <3

Symphony do they cover the cost of the panorama test in the states? Here you have to have prior chromosomal issues in past pregnancies or over 40 when delivering. Otherwise you have to pay for it. I would like to have it done but $800 right before Christmas seems excessive.

Some offices offer them standard I guess. My sister got it with her first pregnancy. It was covered by her insurance and she didn't have any previous issues. She basically just wanted to find out the gender, which a lot of people do.

I can't cope with the smell of garlic at the moment. Last week OH ate an entire garlic baguette and he stunk, he made me feel so ill. Then a couple of days ago he had garlic and herb pasta and I was ill again, sadly for him no more garlic. I usually like garlic.

It is lovely to see that so many early scans have gone well good luck to the ladies with scans coming up.

I usually love a lot of garlic, but I've been having the same reaction!

I'm finding I'm fine with raw garlic, it's only cooked that's a problem. I made a salad to go with dinner and put 2 cloves fresh garlic and it was delicious. And once it cooled down and was heated up again, the garlic smell was far less strong and was okay.

Sweety great scan. So amazing to see them moving around.

Symphony I have a Doppler but haven't used it yet but will probably try soon. Yay for the Panorama and 12 scan being scheduled! I am still decided to do the Panorama. We did pgs with our embryo so some say since it is testing the same thing to skip. Technically we could know the gender with the pgs, but we had it redacted. Seemed too soon for us to know. Ha!

Tcinks, what day were you when your heard the hb?

I am feeling a bit better today because there was some nausea and I feel pregnant still. Darn progesterone test freaking me out. I guess some docs do not bother and just keep progesterone until 13 weeks then taper. Never a dull moment.

I'm not sure it is covered, or at least not entirely covered unless you're over 35 which I am not so we will be paying out of pocket for it. I have to check prices I won't do it probably if it's that much.

Mdc, when did your doc tell you to stop the progesterone? Mine said on Thurs to continue for another 10 days, and then stop (so I'll be 8 weeks when I stop)...

I'm a bit nervous about it, but looking forward to not having to deal with the morning ritual of putting the progesterone in... (refraining here from putting it a lot more crudely... lol)

Argh!!! I was hoping to skip this pregnancy symptom this time.... but it looks like I'm getting rhinitis of pregnancy again!

I looked up my pregnancy journal from my pregnancy with Jesse, and the sneezing and "allergies" and difficulty breathing started right at the beginning last time. I didn't realise it at the time, and just thought it was my allergies getting worse, but I started getting sneezy and itchy eyes already from week 5 last time!

I'm still hoping maybe I've just got a cough, but I'm going to have to face reality sooner or later and accept that this is just something I'm going to have to deal with every time I get pregnant, and push through it.

Anyone else got this lovely symptom?

 

[yoshy]

Also, are any of you interested in us starting a Junebugs facebook group?

I had one with my first and we're still going strong four years later... some of my closest friends are people I met in that group.

You mean specifically for this thread or any June babies? There is already one for June in general, but if you're talking about just for us here, I'd like that!

 

[yoshy]

I meant specifically for this thread. But if there's already a general one I'd love to be added to that too...

 

[tcinks]

Okay! Well if you start that group please add me - [email protected]

And if you give me your email, I'll add you to the other June group

Yoshy, my prog level was drawn on 8w5d and they were going to taper, but since it is low they want me to continue. I have an appt on Wed and plan to see what the next steps are. I am still doing it twice a day and not sure if they are going to redraw, just keep it on till 12/13 weeks l, and then retest or what. I think most stop around when your doc is doing it. I am, as usual, part of the how the doc puts it 'the unusual group'. Leave it to me. Ha!

I would love to join the FB group. I am going to hold off for a bit...damn superstitious mind. Being positive I will pm you in 3 weeks.

I'm only on one a day in any case, so I'm not sure how you'd taper from that. Lol

I would like to join junebug 2017 group, not a general june group, but after my scan on wednesday

 

[yoshy]

Ok, just created a thread-specific fb group. Anyone who wants to join PM me your email address and I'll add you.
I've made it secret since I know I'm not alone in not wanting to announce yet to the entire world that I'm pregnant, lol.

tcinks I've added you already.

I don't know if I have rhinitis but my nose is constantly blocked and stuffy and I feel like I have a head cold and can't smell things all the time (which could be a blessing in disguise at the moment)...

9 weeks for me and also feeling like symptoms are slowing down!

 

[Mdc]

Babynewbie and tckinks me too! Glad I am not the only one. With my low labs I kind of panicked over the weekend. Guess it is fairly common. Whew!

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Wow you ladies are closing in on 2nd tri! As much as it feels like I have known forever I feel like time is starting to pick up speed. It helps when life gets busy. For me with Christmas less than 7 weeks away (sorry but yes I said it!) I feel like we are going to fly in to 2nd tri. Then we will all be talking about our anatomy scans!! Crazy.
On a side note I managed to find baby on my Doppler today. It was faint but after 15 mins of searching I heard that quick galloping sound. I'm still so early but so happy I managed to. I was going to wait until the weekend but couldn't wait.
