Spiffy I totally get it....MC at 10 weeks is not common, though. Did they find a cause? I read the change of success after one MC is 85% so try not to worry. PS. I'm LDS too!

Unexpected a 12 hour shift?!?! What do you do? Good luck. xoxox

I will be having the early blood draw that looks at the chromosomes so that will happen at my next appointment! So I should know boy or girl in about 6 weeks! I'm dying to know. I have a strong girl feeling but who knows. My mom was way sicker with my brother than me, and I tend to take after her in all things pregnancy, including having the same due date with our first pregnancies.

 

[ladders]

Oh my curious you'll find out so soon that's so exciting!! I was looking at at a company that can tell you from 9 weeks by sending off a sample of blood, sneak peek I think it's called. Imagine knowing at 9 weeks! If money wasn't as tight I would be soooooo tempted

 

[Rach87]

Mona thats a bummer! Are they worried about abortion bc of the child limitations? Like people wanting a certain gender and making sure they get it...

I will be finding out. I like to be prepared. And im impatient. Hehe. My OB doesnt reveal gender for abortion reasons. They hope that when you go for your 20 week anatomy scan it’ll be too late by then for women to end it due to gender. So sad that this happens though and they have to have that rule. And very annoying for the majority who would never even think of doing such a thing. I might end up getting the genetic testing this time bc the labs now have an app where you can access your results... and im thinking i could find out that way. Muahaha. I didnt do genetics last time bc it wouldnt have affected anything and i think for me it wouldve been to much stress with the high rate of false positives.

 

[Rach87]

My test lines are darker than the control lines! I feel like I dont need to test anymore. Oddly such a comforting thing. (Im 17 dpo)

Also had a bit of nausea yesterday evening and today. Seems too early for that. Also some exhaustion. Oy. I know they say every pregnancy is different but i only had 3 days of nausea during week 6 with my dd and thats it.

Curious ~ I think I'm having a girl too I also plan to do the genetic testing but will stay team yellow!

Rach ~ your test looks perfect!

I am shocked your OB does that w not letting people find out the gender. Seems a bit odd to me.. I don't know how here especially in the US that it would be aconcern . I also don't understand how anyone could do that because of the gender so many mom's out there would happily take a child!

Hahahahaha Holly!!!

 

[Mona15]

Holly lol! I only wake up hungry, throughout the day I feel disgusted by most of the food that is offered. I can only take avocado toast or pb&j without a problem.

Rach - well yes, in the past people could only have one child (now 2), and since boys have been prefered for centuries here, women were sometimes even forced to get rid of girls. That's why now they have a very serious gender imbalance, like 140 men to 100 women, and men are having super hard time finding a girl to marry.

I find it totally weird that they dont do gender reveal there too, though! I can't believe someone would have an abortion just because of the gender. It's so unfair when I think about it, when there are so many of us struggling to have at least one kid. Of any gender!

Allie, I'm originally from Macedonia, it's this tiny country in Europe no one's ever heard of.

 

[Rach87]

I know the idea to end a pregnancy at all let alone due to a gender disappointment is absurd. But thats what my ob said why they wont tell. Oh well, either way ill know halfway through!

Man bummer for the dudes but great for the ladies!

Ive heard of Macedonia! Its in the Bible! And when i was a medical assistant there was a drug rep that would come in to the office who was from there. But yea you and him are the only people ive ever heard of from there. Haha.

[Cara x]

Cara, I get terrible car sickness too,especially on winding roads (aka Scotland haha). I always wore the sea bands on the pressure points on my wrists. I swear they work!!

Yes, It's the lovely winding highland roads I have to contend with I'm going to see if we can pop to the chemist first and pick up ones ofnl those bands!

Welcome becsboo and topaz!

 

[becsboo]

hope the bands work for the sickness

 

[Mona15]

Haha Rach, yeah I remembered people might know it from the Bible.

Congrats and welcome topaz and becs!

Another almost symptom-free day today. I feel weird. Does it happen to you ladies?

 

[Rach87]

Welcome topaz and becs! :wave: what are your due dates? Becs i had an early loss last month too. dh and I were shocked to get a 3 weeks after a miscarriage. How are you feeling so far?

Mona i think thats normal. Hormones rise -> symptoms, hormones level -> no symptoms. Repeat.

 

[becsboo]

[ladders]

Wecome becsboo and topaz! It's nervewraking making the move from the ttc boards to the first tri I know!

Becs and mona my My dd was conceived straight after my first mc and she was a perfectly straight forward and easy pregnancy so hopefully be the same for you.

Dreading the next few days as alot of people on holiday and months ago I agreed to pick up some extra shifts to help and now regretting it as I'm working 7.30am till 7pm for the next 4 days! Think it's going to kill me off!

 

[Rach87]

Awesome tgrich! I was starting to get lonely by myself at the end of the list! Lol
