We had our NT Scan today. It was fantastic! We loved seeing the baby again. It's amazing how much you can already see! The baby's little fingers were just too cute!
Anyway, the important news is that the NT Scan and blood test have determined that the baby's risk of Downs Syndrome is 1 in 7000, and it's risk of Trisomy13 is 1 in 99,000. So we are very happy with that. We were also lucky enough to get a dvd of the scan and a couple of pictures, so I have put the pictures in the gallery.
Always thinking of you all and wishing you all the best! Huge hugs all around!!!
Milla--Sorry to hear about AF, she's such a witch! *hugs* Great news that the TCM is helping to regulate your cycle, though!
Mannie--Thanks for thinking of me! I'm so sorry for what you've been going through, hon! You're such a trooper for hanging in there and being supportive when you're feeling so down yourself--you're amazing!
Mellisa--Yay for earlier O!
Ruthie--Thanks for sharing your blog with us Good luck with POAS on Friday--thinking of you!
Dutchy-- So sorry to hear of your m/c in Aug. I pray you find comfort and support here amongst us. I think it would probably be a good idea to see your dr, especially if you think there's any chance you may have m/c again. It could also just be your body trying to get itself back to normal, sometimes it just takes time. Please remember that you didn't do anything wrong--nothing you could've done would have prevented what happened--and it's so easy to blame ourselves when we don't have the answers! Give yourself the time and space you need to heal--there's no time frame when it comes to grief, you just have to roll with it, and one day soon you'll realize that it's getting easier to face each day.
Possums--Hey, hon, thinking of you! Big *hugs*
Mel & Indy--So sorry to hear about AF's most unwelcome visit! *hugs* Hope the FS can give you the answers you're looking for!
fifi--Congrats on a great 16 week appt!
plc-- A walking frame! No such luck--pretty soon I'll have to throw out the wheelchair and replace it with a gurney! Not that I'm complaining! lol....
mollycat--Sorry to see that biotch made it past my force field again! Big *hugs* for you...
babymiracles--Good luck with your BT and hopeful impending O!! Saying lots of prayers for you, and keeping my fingers crossed!
AJC--6 weeks left? OMG... where has the time gone? I remember when you got your BFP--seems like just yesterday! So happy for you, hon! *hugs*
smi--How's your week going, cycle buddy? It's almost done--tomorrow's Friday! Woot woot!
Krystie--Thanks for sharing the new pics of little Chyan! So happy your scan went well! Miss you much! Hey, do you have MSN so you can meet us for Friday chat? Big hugs and *kiss*
Hey Gurlies..I too am guilty of lurking and not posting...
I check in on all of you daily...so even if you don't see me I have more than likely seen you *wink*
I had a terrible sore throat on Tuesday...that was it...no cold no ill feeling just a horrible sore throat it was just a tad sore yesterday and today nothing...thank goodness it didn't turn into a full blown cold or something! I just hate feeling ill (unless it would be morning sickness...at this point I think I'd LOVE it!)
Only got time for a quickie today, have got lots on today I just wanted to pop in and say hi! I have been a bit guilty of lurking and not posting too just want to see how things pan out with this IVF cycle for a bit longer before I post about it. But I am still jabbing and sniffing away.
Anyway big for everyone especially those who are doing things tough. Hope you all have a lovely weekend.
Hi everyone.
Just wondering if i can join this thread. Here's a little about me.....
I had my 1st m/c at the start of oct 08. I was about 5-6 weeks. I'd only found out i was pregnant 4 days before. To cut a long story short, i had heavy bleeding and clotting so my gyno put me in for surgery and i had a d&c and laproscopy. Its been 4 weeks since it all happened and physically i'm feeling alot better but emotionally i think its really sinking in what happened coz at the time i kept saying to everyone yes i'm fine putting on a brave face when i dont think i was.
Some good came out of it as 2 weeks later my man proposed to me, so we are now engaged!!!
We do want to ttc again soon as we'd love Zac to have a sibling soon but i dont know whats happening with my body as far as AF goes.
Princess. I think I can speak on behalf of all the girls here (and they are all wonderful) in saying, "we are sorry you have to be here". You will find a lot of support and understanding on this thread. You mentioned your AF - has it returned yet? I think the general rule is AF comes 4 to 6 weeks after your D&C. Congratulations on your engagement and I wish you the best of luck in creating a sibling for Zac.
Princess85 . Sorry that you've had to join us, but you've found a great group of supportive women. Congratulations on your engagement. Hope your stay here is a short one and it won't be long before Zac gets a little brother or sister.
Hi girls! Just wanted to pop in to say I'm thinking of you all! For those of you used to me posting everyday--I'm sorry--I know it's probably been really unusual to see how little I've been posting lately! Just been super busy, but always thinking of you!
Thank you some much for all your warm welcomes and encouraging words. I have been referred to a specialists and will be seeing them next month. Doc did a blood test and said the hormone levels were low, but yes I must of mc again. He is not supposed refer me until I have had 3 in a row, but has taken the plunge and done it anyway.
My heart goes out to all of you - I never realised that so many people would be going through the same thing.
