Yay second trimester 
I had some bright red bleeding and a sore looking cervix. All swabs and scan came back inconclusive. So i guess some times it does happen. Nobody wants to see blood though

With my 1st pregnancy, I had the NT Scan done, and all was well, as I was under a fertility specialist, I have PCOS, and struggled to fall pregnant with my 1st one, after almost 10 years. I had her in 2014.
My husband passed away 3 months later,
Now, I fell pregnant naturally out of the blue, no treatments, no nothing, was completely unexpected.
My gynae did not want me to do the full scan and told me, that we should 1st do the blood work, if something is wrong he will send me for the scan.
Lo and behold blood work came back high risk, but I dont know what was wrong in the blood work.....
Tomorrow I have the scan, and then the dr will decide whether or not an amniocentesis will be done, I am scared out of my mind, just praying that all is well.

Glad everything is ok!! I had a spurt of bleeding here and there for 2-3 weeks and freaked me out something awful too. Doc thankfully couldn't find a reason either. I wondered if it had anything to do with the placenta forming and/or taking over. Or maybe just a popped blood vessel in the cervix.

Hello Ladies,
Sorry for the late post,
After getting counselling, the dr finally did the scan, and advised that from the scan alone she is 90% sure baby is completely normal,
What triggered the high risk, was my Pab B was high and the hcg was low,
She wanted to do the amnio, but I said no, as the risk of miscarriage was higher than the risk of having down syndrome.
I have a 1 in 756 chance,
So now I have to go tomorrow to have blood drawn for the harmony / genesis test and that i will get the results next week.
And ITS A BOY!!!!
I have been feeling him move for a while now, i can literelly feel him on the outside of my tummy,
He is a big boy,

Awwww ladies I'm so happy to hear your happy news
Tanikins - Congrats on having a boy!!
1nce - How are you doing lovely?
Tymeg - That's brilliant news, so happy for you! So sorry to hear that you lost your husband just after your dd was born, you have been through so much, that must have been very hard. Congrats though on this baby and so gad all looks ok!
Mumma moo - Yes I have started feeling the odd squirm and light poke. At first I wasn't sure if it was baby I could feel but yesterday and today I am certain! Its lovely isn't it! So excited for it to get more and more!!
So my harmony test came back as failed
was really shocked but apparently they suspect a vanishing twin and since the dna of both embryos is in my blood they wont test in case of a false positive. We have decided to wait and see what the 20 week scan brings as they should highlight any abnormalities there. I also bought a Doppler last night for peace of mind and heard the beautiful, magical little heart beating away!!

Naw congrats Tanikins a little boy!
I'm very happy for your news Tymeg. And that you didn't have to have an amnio. 😊
Sorry to hear that the Harmony test failed Mrs W. The waiting for the 20 week scan will be a tough one. But my fingers are crossed all is well.
I had a detailed scan before the CVS. Everything looked great. The CVS was painful. The risk is unchanged though at 1 in 7 and I hope to get the initial results back tomorrow. I'm hopefull all will be okay.

Tymeg - glad all is ok
Mrs w - hoping the 20 week gives you answers
Afm - a customer at work asked about baby and then said "oh well better look next time" i went spare. How dare someone just dismiss my little man like that. Gender disappoint meant is clearly not an issue

I've been put back 4 days so I am now due 26/08 (UK), it's ironic really as my first was born the 26/07 and my second was born the 26/09.
We are off to a special music work shop for early years today at an arts centre and its lead by an child music specialist for my 3 and 1 year olds.
We are also looking for a 7 seater as I regularly take my mil and mother out (neither can drive) and my husband (who hasn't passed his test yet but will be by the time this pregnancy is over or I'll kill him
). I'm really suprised by the amount of 7 seaters that say they support isofix but because they have underfloor storage can't have the support leg. We are looking at fords today (smax and galaxy) because at least they will provide a filler so we can use our car seats as we are extended rear facing both our older two as well. At least the newer used fords do have 3 isofix points. I've got rid of my old seat as we weren't expecting another so I will have to get a new baby seat at some point as well.
I am well into nesting mode (tend to have it in second tri in all of my pregnancies as my husband reminded me) and spent 2 hours scrubbing the kitchen and then fell into bed exhausted.
I'm also obsessing over nub and skull theories at the moment. I really want a little boy (though I would of course love a girl) because we have 2 girls but I just feel like its not a very good angle and I can see two possible nubs, one looks girly and one looks boyish. I also think the skull looks boyish but it could just be me hoping I want to upload it but I cant scan it and I dont have a phone right now but I'm going to try to use my husbands phone later to upload it.
Oh and my GTT test came back clear, I am not diabetic.
