Babies due in JUNE!

[Sunshine12]

OH was the one pushing for the amnio.... And his comments about everything prob going to be ok annoyed the crap out of me. If these guys could walk in a woman's shoes just for one day.....

Thanks again for the

Still no cramps and i hope it stays that way. Pinching sensation weny away. Just hurt like hell to sneeze! (and of course, that caused me worry!)


Hugs to u all!

Ah sorry hun. Your post said OG instead of OH so I thought you were talking about OBGYN cause Ive seen people call it OB and thought maybe some called them an OG. lol Doh!!!

Glad you feeling OK. Is it Monday you get results?

Ferne, your family piccie is lovely! x

Morning Ladies - Hope you are all well?

Sadie - Really pleased your amino went well ... just fingers crossed for your results on Monday ... very exciting that they will confirm your little pink bump!

I had my blood results back and came in at 1:4600 for downs - which I am completely shocked about - as had been told to expect to be high risk - as my last pregnancy I was 1:76 and had to have the amino done - so was fully expecting to go through the procedure again this time..

Slightly confused to how I can be high risk for one pregnancy and low risk for another ... especially from bloods and also that I am 3 years older than my last pregnancy - if the scoring is age related in some way??

Anyway I suppose I should be relieved - but I am afraid I worry about everything to the point that I am thinking they might of mixed up my bloods with someone else

Also feeling massive already - and trying to disguse it at work is becoming a nightmare - baggy cardigans are not very fetching ... will have to tell them soon I think... if they have not already guessed!

 

[sadie]

that was funny sunshine.

Yes, i will have the initial results on monday. So far i feel ok.... Just hoping nothing goes wrong in the interim. I took today off, as well. I feel guilty about it, but dont need the stress either.... Too bad i cant fly to florida for the weekend.

Wow. No one at work knows yet! You're lucky. I have been huge for weeks now...

Your numbers are great! Think about it this way....maybe the last time, they screwed up and thats why your numbers were low. And yes, they calculate age into the equation, or at least they did for me.

Are you using the same doctor? Why not send over an email to ask for understanding as to how numbers can change in such a way.

 

[Sunshine12]

Greengerbera, great results! I was like that too. Expected the worst and got really good ratios. Still worry all the time though! lol

Sadie, Im sure the first 24 hours are most critical (I was told this by a few people when I was considering getting an amnio without being tested.) I wouldnt feel guilty if I were you. I reckon a few days rest is the best thing for you. You must be shattered just from worrying about things and stressing out about everything. Just think, after next week you can start really enjoying your pregnancy without worrying (as much!)

 

[sadie]

Yes, rest is impt, but unfortunately a miscarriage can happen within 2 weeks after the procedure! Sucks to have to wait so long!!

On another note, i am going to make a delicious white pizza today with mozzarella, potato and rosemary and then a lemon pie (someone on one of these posted the recipe....why do i think it was indigo?). In any case, yum!!

 

[StarSign]

I made pizza last nite, but it was just regular chicken sausage, peppers, pepperoni, and onion. Yumm.

Today, I deffo starting pulling out some real maternity pants. I think now the bump isn't going to go back down now . Also, I'm sure I feel my LO a little bit here and there. Since their cartiledge is just starting to harden, I'm glad my arse isn't getting kicked to left field because the dr. was so shocked by how active the little one was. However, people still aren't looking at me and telling right away...still riding the obscure wave for now.

@ Greengerbrea. They have probably noticed, but just aren't' saying anything...unless you have a desk job and never get up! lol

 

[Ferne]

GREAT numbers Greenger!

And Sadie, you should not feel guilt whatsoever! I was so worried with my first pregnancy, I probably would've taken the full 2 weeks off (no matter how unnecessary). was such a worry wart. This time it's been easier. I am a lot more confident despite having a high-risk pregnancy last time.

Haven't tapped into maternity clothing just yet. I unbutton my jeans at home though and spend most of my life in yoga pants (same thing as maternity, right?)

 

[StarSign]

BTW Ferne...I agree with all the picture comments...awwww.

 

[Ellie Bellie]

Hooray for all the great test results coming back for everyone!

All my non-maternity work pants have been set aside, though I do still wear my sweats and yoga pants around the house. Tops are a bit of both, depending on the length of the shirt. I have taken to doing a lot of layering, as my regular sweaters are long enough and don't look too tight across my belly.

I ordered some more maternity clothes through Old Navy early last week when they were having a sale. Some lounging and exercise pants, since my regular workout clothes were just too constricting around the waist and across the chest. Two dresses for wearing to work so I can feel a bit more professional again. And a maternity/nursing top which I'm wearing today. With that top, I don't quite fill out the bust and I'm worried about it gaping open unintentionally. So I'm keeping my cardigan and scarf on all day until I get a better feel for it. And I'm sure I'll fill it out by the end of the 9 months!

 

[sadie]

I cant fit into any of my pants, even with the zipper down!!

Ok, tmi here, but why the hell does my left nipple feel as if it's been sliced off?? OUCH!!!!!!! wtf?

to my left boob.

 

[StarSign]

Poor boobie, Sadie. But yesterday, my tippies needed some TLC for sure....BOTH.
Also, I've started sleeping on an island of pillows..side sleeping (my fav position) is really achy on my left OR right side. Ironically, my bumpage is back to the mini's! Hmph..so much for prime bump time. And did I mention how I just go and go and go??

but, other than that...I'm feelinng good. LOL

 

[sadie]

All i do is p, too!

 

[Ferne]

How are you feeling today Sadie? I'm excited to hear about your ultrasound results tomorrow.

Anybody else going in for an ultrasound/gender scan this week?

 

[sadie]

thanks for thinking of me!
I am feeling ok. No cramping whatsoever from the amnio, no leakage as far as I know, and no spotting. FISH results tmrw will tell most, and then I have an OB appt after work, so another ultrasound!
My little baby never seems to cooperàte for these tests. On Thursday, baby was moving around and in the wrong position throughout, and during my NT in december, again in the wrong place/position.... But I did get to see the cutest yawn on thursday...
i will post tmrw once I get the news.

 

[Ferne]

Great! Glad you're feeling ok and have no symptoms of any problems. Looking fwd to your update tomorrow.
