NOVEMBER 2015 RAINBOWS. Please Join Us!

[Love4you]

Back from my 8 day vacation to Florida. Amusement parks are not as fun when pregnant. Food was great though!

So excited to see everybody's happy updates!!
My scan is today at 11am and I'm a nervous wreck.

Lady - what a lovely gift that would be. . My DH's family (mom, dad, brother) all have November birthdays so I'm kind of hoping for an October baby. Just not too early please.

Love - good luck for your scan today!

love4you good luck at your scan!

Lady that would be nice.

My family has a lot of birthdays in feb we have only 1 in the fall.. so this little one will be well placed!

Still feeling crazy sick.. anyone else... I'm just really hoping that it goes soon, with my first I was sick the entire pregnancy, and with my second I was sick until 16-17 weeks... I just can't wait to enjoy food again.. right now I'm just forcing food in because I need to eat... sigh...

 

[SweetV]

I'm finally just starting to ease up a bit. I still have a lot of aversions and I will think I want something, make it and then can't stand to look at it which sucks. The feeling of constant bloat and dizzy sick feeling has finally started to pass though. I hope it is the same for you soon too!

Mine is easing up in the mornings, but my evenings are rough.

 

[klsltsp]

SweetV nice that yours is easing up...

Kwynia I'm exactly the same way... eating as much as I can early in the day since afternoon/evening is a write off!!

Baby was measuring perfectly with a beautiful heart rate of 172bpm. I feel so much better.
And they did the blood draw for Materniti 21. So I'll have those results in a week-10 days.

That's a wonderful scan picky love xxxxxx

 

[Love4you]

Thank you! I could have watched that baby wriggle for hours.

 

[SweetV]

Isn't it amazing!
What is the materniti blood test for? Is it the same as the Harmony (blood test to check for chromosomal disorders that will also tell you the sex)?

 

[klsltsp]

Loveforyou amazing pic!! congrats.

SweetV yes Materni is the same as the Harmony (or very very similar) good news since you're in Ontario like me, I just heard today that as of about 10 weeks ago, if we get a positive on the NT screen, that OHIP will pay for the Harmony test! what a relief! I don't think I would do an amnio but would definitly do a blood test!

 

[CelticNiamh]

Love all the scan updates so happy they are all going so well

As for ms mine is bad today currently lying in bed with a headache and feeling sick

Looking forward to it easing soon

I just met with a geneticist at Mt. Sinai today and it's true, if you screen positive they will pay for the test. Obviously still better to screen negative but a good way to save a few bucks!

Ladybirdgb - congrats! I am also measuring ahead but they are not moving my due date b/c we know exactly when the little guy was conceived. He is just probably a bigger baby! In any event I am staying on this thread even though I know I will not have him in November - having an early c-section in Oct.

 

[klsltsp]

3 chord are you in Ontario too? I too will be having a section early and will be having an October baby but will stay here since all other milestones etc will be the same as the ladies in this group

 

[girlinyork]

If I have this baby at the same gestation I had my daughter at they will be here on Halloween

 

[Love4you]

Oops had to delete the scan pic. Didn't realize my OB put so much personal info on there.
And my Dr doesn't do the NT scan any longer if you're over 35, they go right to the materniti 21. More accurate results.
So now the waiting begins again.

 

[SweetV]

3chords - I am seeing a specialist at Mt Sinai as well. I start June 2nd at the special pregnancy clinic. Will you be delivering there?
That's amazing news about the blood test over amnio with all the risks that come along with it.

GIY - your picture is so clear. I know a few Halloween babies. At least they get lots of "treats"

Love- my Dr puts loads of info too. I just try to take a picture and crop the top off.

 

[Embo78]

Lovely scan pics ladies

I always go over with mine so it looks like I'll be the last one standing

12 weeks today

 

[Ladybirdgb]

Oh Halloween babies we will have our own coven lol

I know when I ovulated clear blue ovulation kit told me I honestly think it's just a big baby too xxxxxx

Second tri tho if they are right that starts today eeeeekkkk
