March rainbows 2018

maryanne I bet you and your kids will have a blast if you go to Disneyland!

sweetkat - your vacation sounds so nice. I have only been to France once, and it was just one small town. I would love to see more of the country.

We will actually be flying at the end of the month. We have to go back to Canada for my grandmother's 90th birthday then we're staying for a week to visit family. I am a little nervous about flying too, but it would take us the better part of 4 days to drive from where we are in the US to where we're from in Canada. So just hoping everything goes smoothly.
 
Sounds lovely karoolia, sure you will have a great time. Im sure flying will be much more comfortable than sitting in a car for days. I'm so jealous of everyone going away.

9 weeks today and First consultant appointment Monday! Cant believe how fast time is passing.
 
Sweetkat - vacay sounds great. Hope you have a wonderful time, when do you go?

Maryanne - Disneyland sounds great with all the kids! Yay for first appointment. Very exciting.

Karoolia - don't worry about the flight Hun. Where is Canada is she? Wow big birthday for Grandma!

Afm, call the Drs office and now just waiting for call back. Hoping to do another scan before we do the harmony test. Super tired today again, but went shopping yesterday so have lots of healthy snacks for when the nausea starts. Trying to be productive is hard when I am feeling so gross and unmotivated.
 
I am sure flying is very safe, I just hate it at the best of times and never flew when pregnant with DD either. Just me being me :)

We are going in 6 days, very excited. It's very cold here and pouring it down, proper autumn whether :(

Time really is flying. Kirsty and I are 12 weeks (well I am and Kirsty tomorrow), Maryanne is 9, Karoolia is getting close to 12 :) - yeeeeeey to all of us.

Myshel, how far along are you? I did panorama at 9 weeks exactly as couldn't wait a day longer and there was enough of the baby's DNA in my blood to test and I got the results 6 days later (even though I am in the UK and they send them off to the USA for testing).

I bought a stretchy skirt today and a few tops, none of the tops will fit me in a few weeks, but at least I can wear them on holiday :):):)
 
Oh, I got my bloods back today and I don't have strep B. How is that possible? I had it with DD.
 
They say you can have it with one baby and not another. I have only every been tested once so no idea of true or not
 
I've never had it diagnosed through bloods, only vaginal swabs. It's not accurate before 35 weeks though and can come and go. I'd ask for a repeat test later on but if they refuse it definitely something worth paying privately for. Ours cost £40.
 
I'm not worried about the safety of flying so much as being stuck on a 4 hour flight with morning sickness or worse having a miscarriage in the air. I have terrible flying luck so I could see it happening to me.

My grandmother is in New Brunswick. We're from Mova Scotia. So Atlantic Canada. At the moment we're in Iowa, mid-West USA. I think we have three connections each way. All worth it to celebrate with family though! I can't wait!
 
My anxiety is bad today. Keep worrying that something is wrong and I've lost the baby. Tuesday needs to hurry up!!!!!
 
Hoping the time passes quickly for you Kirsty. Just a few more days to go x
 
I know the feeling. My scan is Monday and it feels like a lifetime away. Wish I could just sleep till then. I keep saying I'm going to try and be less anxious but I never manage it.
 
My scan is tomorrow (the NHS one) and even that feels like ages away.

I asked for a repeat GBS test closer to delivery, I don't know whether it was diagnosed through blood or urine sample as I gave both (but didn't have a swab). I would definitely pay £40 because if I need antibiotics in labour I want to make sure I get them!

I feel really sick and really bloated today. People must think I am a fat slob or suspect sth is up, although my best friend (who hasn't seen me for 2 weeks) invited me for drinks! So maybe she does think I am fat :) I tried on sooo many things today before settling on one skirt that is loose enough not to show the entirely of my belly :)
 
I had the swab done for gbs I would ask for that nearer the time.

My nausea is back but thankfully it's not as bad but it's been getting worse the last three days. Trying to stay positive from that
 
Sweetkat - I think I am about 9w now based on my first scan. We are planning on doing the Harmony test in about a week. We did this with our last pregnancy and everything came back normal, but we lost him anyways so i don't know if getting it will ease any anxiety or not. But hopefully it will.

Good luck Kristy, Sorry time is dragging on so much. Try to just remain positive.

Karoolia- New Brunswick is beautiful, my best friend has a sugary out there. Three connections sound like hell, but totally worth it.

I know nothing about strep b testing, sorry.
 
Myshelsong - yes, I love NB! I have a lot of family there, mostly in Mirimichi, but I have spent time in pretty much every city and town. I haven't been for a few years now due to moving so far away so I am excited to get back!

Kirsty - I know how you feel. Tuesday feels like an eternity away. Do you have anything planned for the weekend to distract you?

For the last two days I was so distracted with the visitation and funeral for our friend's baby that I didn't have time to worry, but now that everything is over my mind has gone into full worry mode again. I haven't felt sick in the last few days, aside from the odd short bout of queasiness. I know that ms can fade around 10 weeks, but it still worries me. Knowing last time I had a missed miscarriage I know that it could all be over already and I just wouldn't know it. Sigh, roll on Tuesday!
 
Nothing planned but kids go back to school a week on Tuesday and I still need to get all their uniform sorted so planning to do that at some point.
 
Myshel - I had never done panorama or harmony before but this time it did give me some reassurance (well at least that there is a low chance of chromosomal issues).

Karoolia - your trip sounds very exciting :). I would fly back home as well for a big event.

Maryanne - not long until Monday and your first consultant appointment.

Kirsty - Countdown to your scan is on :)

Afm, it's my NHS scan today at lunchtime. I look awful at the moment - bloated and fat and generally yuck from the MS. Never mind :)
 
Good luck sweetkat!

I think pregnancy is the only time when it's perfectly acceptable to look a mess. Well that's what I'm telling myself anyway. I've been sick so much the last few days that my skin has reached a whole new shade of pale, my belly looks like I've eaten too many pies and I've just woken up with a face full of spots. DH is such s lucky man :rofl:
