Very nice Kyla! Love the little bump!

 

[KylasBaby]

Too much Christmas food lol. I feel so bloated.

 

[macydarling]

You look adorable though! Im not bloated just yet. Cant wait!

 

[KylasBaby]

Thanks . It will happen for you soon enough.

Hi Ladies can I tentatively join? I'm sure we all feel this way. I got my BFP on Dec 14 so should be around 6 weeks. This is my third pregnancy this year so I'm not feeling super confident. I'm hoping they find a hb at my scan on Jan 7. I should be about 7.5 weeks. Fx'd for everyone! So pleased for your great scan Kyla's!!!!

 

[steph.]

Aww lovely bump Kyla!

Welcome marathon girl! Sounds like a few of us will be getting scans in early Jan, fingers crossed for healthy bubs!

 

[marathongirl]

How is everyone?? Very quiet on here.
Any scans this week? I still have over a week

 

[macydarling]

Nothing new over here. I'm not scheduling my first appt til 8wks, and I'm not sure if they will do a scan then or not

 

[KylasBaby]

Nothing much going on here. Have my panorama blood test tomorrow so will have those results in about two weeks. That includes the gender! Other than that just waiting.

 

[Sass827]

My follow up scan is Friday. Really hoping they see a pole this time. I'm super bloated too and have gained three pounds but I think it's more from the holidays.

 

[macydarling]

Kyla~ will they really be able to tell gender so early?! I had no idea that was possible...? Cool!

Sass~ Good luck at your appt! I didn't realize you had an early scan already. That's pretty neat! I don't think my doctor does an early ones. But I'm hoping for one at my first appt to help me relax.

Yep! The blood test can be done from 9-11 weeks and tests for a bunch of triosomies and other chromosomal issues and also tells gender. Pretty excited for that! I'm having it done tomorrow at 9 weeks exactly and should know results two weeks after that

 

[Sass827]

I had some tan and brown discharge last Monday so we all assumed another mc. So they scanned me and we saw a yolk sac but nothing else so been pretty anxious since then. This week is stretching on forever and it's omly Monday! Dd and I are getting sick, so sure it will be a do nothing week.

 

[Sass827]

I'm really hoping to be able to get that test too Kyla. I get to talk to my doctor in a week about it. Can't wait to hear how yours goes.

Definitely ask about it. Can't hurt. My doctor didn't say why I'm able to get it, but she also offered me like every testing under the sun which I don't need so I think she just offers it to everyone. She said as long as the blood draw is done int he office my insurance will cover it so that's good!

It tests for ...
Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)
Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome)
Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)
Turner syndrome (Monosomy X)
Sex chromosome trisomies
Triploidy
22q11.2 deletion (DiGeorge)
Angelman
Prader-Willi
Cri-du-chat
1p36 deletion
And the gender

 

[Sass827]

I checked out their site and it is wonderful. I Just need yo find out if my I too can get it to be covered like yours did. Fx!

If in doubt, cry. I find it to be quite effective

 

[macydarling]

Oh yes, crying is quite effective. When I went to the walk in clinic for my sinus infection I forgot my drivers license and the said they couldn't see me without an id. I burst into tears (in my defense, they were real tears, I felt like poo) & voila...suddenly they were able to see me without the id after all

 

[sunshine2014]

Hahaha crying pregnant lady hormones.

I have my scan today. So nervous. Just want it to all go well. today is the day I had my first mc. So it feels like a milestone. I'm going to go to the gym, yoga and out for tea. Clear my head. Other than that no news, just wishing time would move a touch faster. Second trimester please!!

Everything crossed for you!

My OB called and said I have to reschedule my panorama test because by LMP I'm 8+6 today even though the ultrasound out me a day ahead with a due date a day ahead so I'm really 9weeks today. Oh well, having it done tomorrow instead.
