Those that TTC together, Stick together!! 4 BABY BOYS/3 BABY GIRLS

[BrandysBabies]

I did something bad...................I cancelled my NT Scan and bloods. I have been having the worst nightmares and feeling about it. I would not terminate regardless and I didnt have one with either of my other two children and I felt pressured into doing it in the first place by the high risk specialist. I just felt like it was what was right for me. I will still be going to my OB on Wed, so hopefully we will get a peek at baby then, and then once I get to ATL I will set up a private gender scan for sometime in December until I get my medical and OB set up there. I just couldn't go through with it.

You need to do what feels right for you Brandy - i admire you for sticking to what you think is right - i'm sure everythings fine anyway

 

[nypage1981]

Sorry Mrs, boo

Brandy hope its all fine anyways!! My doc explained to me it was good to know as then I have time to prepare, and set up my life for a child with needs....It really is what you feel is right, long as it wont cause worry for the unknown for the whole pregnancy for you!~

 

[rosababy]

"can adults throw fits?"

Yes.

My IC's came and still BFN's Think i am out as i am crampy too.

Ugh. Sorry, Dee. We need some bfps in here!

Ready- I've seen a few different drs and explain my problems etc. Maybe I'm not asking the right questions because it's just a nod them on to the next subject.

I would see a specialist if I were you. My gp was like you have a beautiful uterus (aww shucks...) and she was sure I wouldn't have problems. My ob/gyn was like you look fine, here's some clomid. It wasn't until the RE finally did some real tests that we found out the real issues.

 

[rosababy]

Brandy, you need to do what is right for you. We won't have those tests done either. Although what NY said was right, it does give us time to prepare. I think what you did is fine.

 

[Kylarsmom]

There are good things about those tests though, I understand the downs thing, like yea, you would love that baby no matter if it had downs or not, but there are other things like Trisomy 13 (which is what my cousins baby just died of) and that would be something i would think you would want to know. B/c usually those people dont make it to term, and my cousin had to see a counselor for a long time before the baby acutally came. although loosing your child could never be easy, imagine how hard that would of been , going into early labor at 32 weeks to have a baby die 30 min later and not have known about it. just something to think about. most people just think about downs and other livable diseases when they think of that testing. but there are other things that are fatal too that they can test for. i would want to know that, personally. but everyone is different and if you dont want to know that is your decision, but just wanted to throw that out there in case you hadnt really thought about it that way.

 

[Mrs.iwnamkabb]

Brandi- how do they do these tests? Is it bloodwork or do they have to stick needles? And I agree with you and the ladies. I think those tests are useful in preparing yourself in case. But it's more of peace of mind in my opinion. Much like finding out the sex.

Rosa- I know I need to be more specific with these drs. Ive been reluctant to start getting tests and stuff done because when we started talking babies I was set that it was ntnp until I'm done with school. (rolls eyes) and that's taking forever. But now that I'm obsessed with getting pg now that I know there's issues I guess asking a few more questions won't hurt.

Afm- as of 7pm. I'm Completely baffled about what's going on. Watery cm that's tinged red/pink. No blood... No flow. Only have a drop the size of a pencil eraser on my panty liner... Much like if you spilt tea on a white blouse.. It's clear water with a brown tinge to it.. It's confusing..

Nothing a bowl of mint chic. Chip ice-cream won't fix we'll see what happens with it

 

[nypage1981]

Haha i had a terrible day w Kian and so I just ate a dairy queen Mint Oreo Blizzard...evil!

Mrs, the test is an ultrasound and blood draw. Theyer measuring thickness in the spinal fluid or something. It was a very neat ultrasound cuz we had to work at getting baby in an exact profile position. was fun to watch. I so think everyone should do it to know whats coming...not to terminate or anything!

 

[Mrs.iwnamkabb]

She got me full force overnight. Lol I wa holding on to te very last string of pma I had. But she got me. Good news is.. After studying my chart like crazy last night it seems that I see to o pretty regularly around cd 19. I looked at all my charts clear back to last nov.. And most of them have me o at cd 19. Which is great news to know. Means ima hold out on dh for the next 2 weeks hehe then let him tackle me for 4 days in a row woot lol

Happy turkey day to everyone Can't wait for a loooong weekend off work

 

[Kiki0522]

So I'm back where I was last month.. late. By 2 days. I have a weird thing going on.. my bbs are sore of and on. One day they hurt, and I swear AF is coming.. the next day they aren't and I feel great. Usually they start to hurt after Ovulation and stop the day AF comes. I always know it will be here because they stopped. Very weird but not getting my hopes up, Haha.

How is everyone? I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!

 

[rosababy]

MrsI, sorry about AF.

Kiki, HI! Will you test or wait it out?

Happy Turkey Day, lovely ladies!! I'm at my parents, prepping the food for tomorrow and I'm starting to get tired...
