Congratulations and welcome myshel x

 

[Sweetkat]

Welcome Myshelsong . I recognise your name from some of her other threads.

Hope this is your rainbow - happy and healthy nine months.

How is everyone else? My MS is back, so it didn't go for long...

 

[xkirstyx]

I've been totally stressing! Sickness was gone, any streching and cramps gone. Like I feel nothing at all. Nausea is back now. I need to try and chill out! 3 weeks today till scan!

 

[maryanne1987]

I'm ok. Very few symptoms today for me. It's worrying me but then I know they could return full force by later. I'm very tempted to book a scan this weekend but we can't really afford it and already have one booked for the weekend after. It's a lovely day though, kids are in the pool playing so I'm sat snuggled on a sun lounger under a parasol with my youngest.

 

[Sweetkat]

I felt nothing for 2 days which worried me, but have been feeling sick all day now

I have asked for a referral for a 12 week scan which should come through in a week. By then I should have panorama results back.... tomorrow is a week since
I gave blood, so I am very hopeful I get them back before the end of the week.

 

[xkirstyx]

I'm always glad you you say the same as me sweetkat since we are both at the same stage!

 

[Sweetkat]

My test results are expected today, tomorrow or the day after at the latest. Fingers crossed they come back today maybe

 

[maryanne1987]

Good luck for the results! Hope they don't keep you waiting long for then.

 

[xkirstyx]

Hope you're not waiting too much longer for your results Hun.

Welcome Myshelsong! I hope this is your beautiful rainbow baby. I'm sorry about your previous losses. How far along are you? Also I see you are in Ontario! I love seeing fellow Canadians on here. We're in the US for another year, but are from Canada and hope to be moving back next July.

Sweetkat I hope your results come in soon! Waiting for things like that is so difficult!

 

[Sweetkat]

No sign of results as yet. I called them and they said they might be in this evening and otherwise they will call me when they get them back...

It is difficult because if they come in as high risk then that's going to be awful.

 

[Myshelsong]

Good luck on the tests sweetkat. I hate waiting!

I am 6w5d now so really close to a couple of you.

My fertility doctor is submitting my request to a high risk clinic, so hopefully I will be transferred to that before 16 weeks.
We plan on doing the harmony test asap.
My MS or nausea has kicked my butt these last few days. Trying to nibble in an apple throughout the day and snack on arrow root cookies. So far so good ... haven't fully been sick yet but very close. But I am exhausted!

Karoolia- Yup I am in Ontario, just out side of Hamilton. What took you to the states?

 

[maryanne1987]

I know it's hard but try to stay positive sweetkat, we are all routing for you.

Having such a bad day. I wish I knew what what's happening with baby 2, this wait is killing me.

 

[Sweetkat]

It seems we are all waiting. Well really the whole 9 months is a wait....

Maryanne, if you don't have bleeding that has got to be good. Hopefully the baby will grow in the next two weeks.

Myshel, I opted for Panorama because it can be done at 9 weeks (and I had it done on the day I was 9 weeks). Harmony is from 10 weeks.

Let time fly and let the news be good for all of us

 

[maryanne1987]

No bleeding at all. I'm hoping it's a good sign but dont want to get my hopes up. It just seems like such a long wait. I'm preparing for bad news though.

Your right though that the whole 9 months is a wait. I can never relax till baby is in my arms.

 

[karoolia]

The whole 9 months really is a wait. I keep saying I'll relax if I get through first tri, but I doubt that will actually be the case.

Thinking of you Maryanne! I'm sure the wait is very difficult.

Myshelsong - My husband is a doctor. He is doing his family medicine residency here. He went to the Caribbean for med school, which made him an international grad. There are more spots in the US than Canada for those grads. He applied in both countries, but US is where he matched so here we are! He is in his last year now though so we're just counting the days until we move back home.

 

[Myshelsong]

I don't think I will ever fully relax. With a late loss under my belt already I know that the worst can happen.
Just going to try to love and feel as much joy as I can with the time I get with this miracle.

I had no idea there was a difference in the paramour test vrs the harmony test. My doctor only mentioned the one.

Hopefully the time will fly by and you will be home soon. My friend is doing her last year of residency at Toronto Stollery, so hard and so many hours! Can't imagine the work it takes.

Maryanne, thinking of you and hoping for both of your little ones. Just try to relax and stay positive. Easier said than done I know

 

[Sweetkat]

1 in 10,000 chance of a chromosomal issue and it's a girl. Soooooooo happy

 

[karoolia]

Congratulations Sweetkat!!! Amazing news, just what you needed to hear. And a girl! Congrats! I hope you're celebrating.
