April Diamonds!! [2016 Rainbows]

[hiphophooray]

Oh yes I forgot some of you arent in the other thread! I guess I just assumed you all would know what I was talking about. Sorry! I started with both of the April groups but was more active in the other group, I am not sure why but I feel like I shouldn't be in this one because my losses were so early its not fair to some of you other ladies if I compare my stress with yours, even though I know a loss is a loss no matter how early! Horrible feeling, and I have been terrified of a later loss with bleeding this time around but thankfully after 4 weeks of spotting it has cleared up! I feel.a bit more excited now, but my own medical problems always scare me well into the pregnancy, since they could be devastating.

Awh, don't feel that way! I had only early losses as well. Like you said, a loss is a loss we all know what it's like and we are all here to support each other.

HCG came back at only 4. I sort of figured this is what would happen since I woke up to spotting

In other news, Genetics lost our results.....so we had those redrawn today. Results come in TWO MORE WEEKS. Pissed does not describe me right now.
But we did learn more about Sophie. Our first Dr told us she had Trisomy 4p, she didn't but she had something pretty similar. Sophie had Trisomy 4 Mosiacism, meaning only part of her genetic material had the complete extra copy of the 4th chromosome. Sophies condition is so rare, our geneticist told us she has never seen it nor does she think she ever will again because assuming our tests come back normal, there was a 3% chance of a chromosomal disorder. Of that 3% group, less than 2-3% of those also have Mosaicism.

Since Magnus is healthy, our geneticist is hopeful that her case was de novo (random) so we'll see in 2 weeks.

I'm sorry Navy We were all routing for this one. I guess it's better to have answers before going into another pregnancy though. At least in my opinion.

 

[SunUp]

I'm so sorry Navy, really hoping you all can get answers and get a sticky bean soon!!

Hiphop- don't worry we are here to support everyone, no matter when the loss!! Don't feel bad

AFM- genetics testing came back very low risk!! Now just to wait for our gender reveal in No ember!!

 

[zmzerbe]

I just had such a big hormonal moment... I got down all of my son's nb clothes out of the attic and I opened the bin and my favorite sleeper of his was right on top. I picked it up and I forgot how tiny he was! I started bawling my eyes out and was overcome with emotions and couldn't stop for a good 15-20 minutes.

 

[NavyLadybug]

I did that the other day, Z! I was looking through his keepsake box and his coming home outfit was in it and it was soooo tiny (preemie sized) and I teared up at how little he used to be and how big he is now!

 

[babyjan]

So sorry navy really hope you can get answers soon x

Edit: just noticed my phone changed navy to baby lol

 

[Lala77]

Sorry navy :0( sending you positive energy

 

[NavyLadybug]

How is everyone doing? Anyone find out the gender of the little ones? Anyone come up with names, nursery ideas or been shopping?

 

[mommyof2peas]

Team pink!

 

[NavyLadybug]

It's a girl, Mommy?! Yay!! Any name ideas being tossed around?

 

[zmzerbe]

We are still trying to figure out a name. We want to make sure that the gender is definitely verified through ultrasound as well... I still have a hard time accepting gender over the phone lol.

But we put all of Chance's nb and 3 month clothes in the closet and got rid of some of them to make room for new purchases.

Also, my mom might be moving in with us for the time being, her husband and her are getting divorced and she's been thinking about moving to PA anyways to be closer to her grandkids.

 

[NavyLadybug]

Not long to wait for the ultrasound confirmation, Z! And I'm sorry to hear your mother is divorcing, but I'm sure your children and her will love to be so close from now on!

 

[mommyof2peas]

After two losses we have had loads of time to figure out a name lol

had my 16 week appt yesterday - little guy was moving around so much the doctor was laughing and trying to get his HB on the doppler. finally got it in the 150's - crazy that he's such a mover and i can't feel it yet, lol. this little guy's name is going to be Lincoln Trace. We've always loved the name Lincoln (plus Lincoln and Jackson are just the best brother names) and Trace is my dad's name.

my 20 week anatomy scan is on November 23rd, the monday before thanksgiving. even though i was surprised that this was a boy, i'm feeling more and more like it is a boy, so i'm not worried about any gender surprises at the scan, lol! we are done having babies after this, so i'll be a boy mom forever, which i don't mind

 

[NavyLadybug]

Double virtue name, very pretty! I have a friend from elementary school named Temperance-Marie actually! Our 8th grade teacher always teased her on how she didn't (and still doesn't haha) fit her name, as it means "Moderation, Self-Control" (Also means "Abstinence from alcoholic drinks") since she has next to no self-control haha


jtink, thats a very handsome name!!

 

[NDTaber9211]

I won't know gender until Dec 2nd. Next scan is 11/13 though. I'm going to try and get my doc to tell me her opinion on gender then. I know she can't say 100% but I'm still going to ask.
