Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

[zowiey]

Oh my goodness kdk, I am so very, very sorry. Sending you lots of love & strength

Kdk, massive hugs, lovely. If my little one hadn't passed by the repeat scan nine days after we first saw her and had her poor prognosis, we would've been faced with an ethical termination as well, as there would've been no chance of her improving. My heart hurts for you, and know however you feel or cope is absolutely fine. I wish you a smooth delivery of your angel and the strength to say goodbye. I hope it goes as well as something like this can and that you get that next BFP just when you want it and have the most uneventful pregnancy next time. If you can, please let us know how you get on, even if it's friending and pm'ing some of us, as we really do care. I'm sure you've seen the loss sections and ethical termination sections of this board, and I can definitely say I found them ever so helpful. So many hugs to you.

Well lovely ladies... We are gracefully bowing out. Had my genetic scan and baby is missing an arm and only has half a leg on the left side. Also, baby has a shortened umbilical cord causing little one to twist and develop spinal problems. They like it might be scar tissue from a previous d&c that caused these abnormalities to happen very early on in developement.
There is no chance of baby recovery and developing normally, so we've chosen to terminate!
I'm so heartbroken! Good news is, there's no reason we can't try again in 2-3 months!
I'm so glad I found such a wonderful group of women to share this experience with!!! Best of luck!!!

Oh I'm so so sorry Hun

Hi Kelly

With my boys I was dreadfully sick 24/7 couldn't move off the sofa , with Evie I wasn't sick really just waves now and again she was a textbook pregnancy x with this one in bang in the middle nowhere near as severe as boys but not as gentle as Evie ? I am managing well really but have NO idea what sex this one is I really thought I'd know ! X

Tower- Hi lovey my twinnie friend!! I hope you don't mind, but I told the OB doc I saw today, mine was not there today, about your tests and he said to please tell you that since you are well under 35 that with just the NT scan alone they shouldn't have said it was bad news. They have to add the statistics of the blood proteins and your age to it all. The Mayo Clinic,( look it up it is in Rochester, MN) is where I go and they are one of the leading hospitals worldwide for pregnancy and specialist. Their measurements are for under 35 and not having any kiddos in the past with problems that the NT scan is under 6.2 then they will do the blood tests and all but that it is still not considered to high of a risk. And he said to ask you are you sure the number was 5.1 like you said? did they wright it down for you? Because if they did it could have been .51 which is fine. I compared our LO pictures and yours looks cute and not really thicker than our peanut's.
I wished you were closer to me because they have a 24-48 hour turn around and I will get a call no later than Tuesday morning with all the test results.

Our little peanut has caught up some from last time but they have officially changed the due date to... Well dh said to tell you all Bon-Fire Day? He told me what it was and that by saying that you UK ladies would know. For all of us other ladies it is Nov. 05 So, Tuesday is my fruit day instead of Sundays now it's okay.
I have a small video of peanut moving and dancing around so cute. I saw little feet and when the lady doing the scan first put probe onto me we saw baby straight off. She said,"hello little baby" and then peanut looked towards us sucked it's thumb then punched both hands up and waved. SO very cute.
Then , baby decided that the feet looked like they might reach the mouth and almost folded in half and brought feet ever so close. LOL
I have been telling you all how I have been having pains I thought round ligament? well, all morning I have had HORRIBLE right sided pains in one particular spot and baby was righet in that spot.
The doc used a Doppler so we could Finally hear the heartbeat in the office and not just at home. He caught baby moving pointed out the moving sounds baby kicked or punched right at Doppler and it sounded likea little popping noise. He said baby was showing us who was boss. Then, there baby was just a racing away. I won't give the HB number til after I get some gender guesses ladies. so, here is baby peanut. This first one is off the CD they made with the video on t so if we can't see nu I g=have physical pics can try to take picture of and upload.

Oh NT scan was 1.6 and baby is 56mm or 2.245 inches long. I weigh 59.1Kg and they are keeping my starting weight at what it was the first time I saw them at 9 weeks. So I was 58.4Kg then. I was told to go by my weight at approximately time I got BFP. So then I was
57.3Kg then. In all 4lbs. I have gained Yippee!!!

I am 28, DH is 24 and I have never had any losses but 3 perfectly normal uneventful pregnancies. I can remember the other questions but it was actually 5.7mm sigh... They said there were no other signs showing that you usually see with this high of a mm (webbing, puffy areas or swelling, or heart or brain issues) from what they could see. So that was good but the number was high. I am really upset with the tech as she was horrible and started the scan by saying "we really need this little guy to move" but he was sleeping so she said " I can't get an actual measurment for this till he's in a lateral position" but they baby didn't ever change positions it just moved arms an legs so I wonder how good her measurements were? She literally did that looked at the brain said here's the hb at 167bpm which is good and then said "ok get up go pee and come back" so we thought that was to wake baby and try again but when I got back she said I'm gonna get blood from your fingertip and you can go wait in the waitin room till your dr apt.... That was it.

Then another dr told me the number and asked if I want to terminate. I was like "ummm I guess I don't know what's wrong" she explained very little and then got called to an emergency delivery and just left me in the room.....

Then my dr came in and she said all the good things like webbing ect and said that we will wait on blood work before we even get scared but that yes it was a very high reading. So here I sit...
