I was so sure this one (we also already have one of each) was a boy and was shocked to see girl on the NIPT report!</p> <p>@ChiCalGoBee: congrats on your girl and a great scan! </p> <p>@crazydoglady: and yay for another great scan! So fun to hear all the good news :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2806021 Sat, 24 Feb 2018 10:19:31 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2806021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: yep we will find out! We already have one of each, so I really have no preference at all- and I can't make up my mind about what I think it is! </p> <p>@ChiCalGoBee: haha we will be high fiving a normal cord too! I asked at my 13 week scan if she could tell if it was SUA or not. She said jt was a bit too early to tell but she thought it looked ok. Congrats on a girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2806011 Sat, 24 Feb 2018 08:05:42 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2806011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: love it! I need some rainbow gear, too!<br /> @Mrs. Champagne: My son had SUA and, thankfully, this baby does not! My husband and I were high-fiving a “normal”cord!<br /> @crazydoglady: Congrats on the normal NT! Huge milestone!</p> <p>We had our anatomy scan at 19.5 weeks yesterday! Everything looked great and we are SO grateful! The icing on the cake is that we found out last night we’re expecting a little girl. :girl: We have a son already and are pretty jazzed to experience both sexes. Sending all of you love! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2805994 Fri, 23 Feb 2018 23:13:35 +0000 crazydoglady 2805994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: That is darling! I'm glad you are letting yourself get excited. </p> <p>AFM, I just had a great NT scan and am starting to feel very hopeful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2805993 Fri, 23 Feb 2018 22:52:55 +0000 bhbee 2805993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: good luck on Monday! Are you finding out gender then or waiting? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2805989 Fri, 23 Feb 2018 22:13:58 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2805989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: so sweet. I had a rainbow striped outfit for my daughters newborn pics (she was a rainbow babe too) and I loved it. If this is a girl I'll reuse it! :) glad you're doing well.<br /> I'm 18 weeks tomorrow. Anatomy scan is next Monday. I'm nervous. My daughters was a bit scary - found out she had an SUA. All was fine but reminds me scary stuff can happen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2805988 Fri, 23 Feb 2018 22:07:55 +0000 bhbee 2805988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope everyone is doing well here! I bought this recently and thought of you all :heart: (they actually have a lot of rainbow stuff right now if anyone is shopping!)</p> <p>I’m still nervous about the anatomy scan but I’ve started to believe this is happening. </p> [attach=4253/18/p4mwp7.337x600.CD495654-B423-48F6-88C0-0CDFAE0616D0.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2802371 Tue, 06 Feb 2018 11:18:58 +0000 bhbee 2802371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ChiCalGoBee: hugs on the anxiety :heart: that one is a really hard wait, knowing you have that one big milestone left. Hope the time passes quickly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/15#post-2802366 Tue, 06 Feb 2018 11:05:29 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2802366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Yes!!! Incredible news! Hoping you can start to enjoy the pregnancy now that everything is right on track.</p> <p>I’m 17 weeks today. I’m 2 .5 weeks out from the last appointment and 2.5 weeks from the next one (our anatomy scan) and feeling really anxious. I have an anterior placenta so haven’t felt any movement and it’s making me nervous. Thinking of you all. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2802283 Mon, 05 Feb 2018 21:27:21 +0000 bhbee 2802283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: yeah I may just do text as well. I kind of feel like I should tell my mom on the phone but - something is better than nothing right? The words are just hard. </p> <p>I have zero good ultrasound pics but I’m hoping to tell our kids on Thursday with some shirts (since one of them can read now!) and thinking I could text that ... </p> <p>I’m still super nervous too. I’m hoping like @periwinklebee: said that telling people will help make it real. And when I get to feeling movement on a regular basis that will help I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2802279 Mon, 05 Feb 2018 21:11:39 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2802279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: I had a hard time telling people this time too. I ended up telling my mom via text the day I took the test so that 1) it was over with 2) she'd know it was early and not get her hopes up. </p> <p>I told a few people via text actually. Picture of the 13 week ultrasound. Now I'm 15 weeks and still super nervous pregnancy after loss is so hard 😫 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2802278 Mon, 05 Feb 2018 21:03:19 +0000 periwinklebee 2802278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Such wonderful news!!! I had a hard time telling, like even with the language I’m expecting a baby, because after the losses I wasn’t really expecting it. I think it was ultimately good for me to tell because the fact that other people just expected it to happen sort of helped me to become more optimistic </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2802274 Mon, 05 Feb 2018 20:52:41 +0000 bhbee 2802274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So the good news is everything came back low risk! We are waiting a couple days on gender so we can hopefully find out together online. </p> <p>So it should be a huge relief and it kind of is but ... I don’t know. I still feel like I don’t want to tell people. This is kind of silly because honestly I’m ready to break out the maternity clothes, I need to tell people because it affects summer plans, etc. I’m going to be 14w on Friday and I told my mom about all 3 of my prior pregnancies after seeing heartbeats, but this time we’ve told nobody IRL. </p> <p>I know that can be normal - just wondering if anything helped you to tell? I kind of think I just need to rip the band aid. I’m seeing my family in person this weekend for my niece’s bday and probably it makes sense to tell before then. I have thought about telling our kids and letting them do it ... DH would be happy to wait as long as humanly possible but at this point I think we better do it. </p> <p>Sorry for the ramble! Probably another reason to tell people in real life :silly: so I have someone to talk to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801642 Fri, 02 Feb 2018 14:34:12 +0000 periwinklebee 2801642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@crazydoglady: Thank you! And yay - so , so happy for you!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801632 Fri, 02 Feb 2018 14:06:45 +0000 crazydoglady 2801632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted to update here as well, but baby is measuring right on track with my original due date! Solid hb of 180! I was so so worried after the baby measured small two weeks ago but everything looks great now!</p> <p>[attach=8671/18/p3jefa.600x450.20180202_094850.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801631 Fri, 02 Feb 2018 14:04:41 +0000 crazydoglady 2801631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: Congrats, mama!!!! I have been regularly checking to see how you are doing! It's hard early on but it sounds like you are doing great! So so happy for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801564 Fri, 02 Feb 2018 09:35:59 +0000 periwinklebee 2801564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: thank you!!! We are so happy, despite the feeding stuff to be worked out. I’m sure it will come together, they are like tiny little experiments...</p> <p>Fingers crossed the results come back today. That’s awesome about movement! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801563 Fri, 02 Feb 2018 09:26:51 +0000 bhbee 2801563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: I'm so excited to hear from you! I have been waiting for baby news :grin: - so happy he's here and you're all so happy. I read your Jan post too - I'm sorry for the stressful feeding situation - it's so hard to feel stressed about that when so much crazy new stuff is going on. I'm glad you're getting lots of help and hope a feeding plan comes together soon that works for you all. :heart: </p> <p>@ChiCalGoBee: I'm hoping today - I had it done last Thursday so it would not be crazy. The Panorama website says I should hear by Tuesday, but I know many people hear earlier and I would really love to be one of them. It's making me kind of crazy - I don't even care about gender right now, but I'm pretty sure I've started to feel movement and that plus not knowing whether the baby is healthy is just . . . I keep imagining the worst. </p> <p>So hopefully today so we can not think about it this weekend! I'm thinking I may ask the nurse not to tell me gender - since it will show up online, I thought it would be fun to look at it with DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801531 Thu, 01 Feb 2018 23:09:39 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2801531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: yay!! Congratulations, mama! So thrilled your rainbow has arrived 🌈❤️<br /> @bhbee: Any news on NIPT yet? 🤞🏻 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2801523 Thu, 01 Feb 2018 22:31:58 +0000 periwinklebee 2801523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: I've been thinking of you and am so, so happy to see this! </p> <p>My baby is finally here - he arrived a little over a week ago, fast natural birth about a week after his due date, thankfully no induction needed! The first week with him has been the most amazing (and exhausting!) time ever. His weight gain has been on the low side despite eating constantly, so mostly just trying to figure out how to get my supply up... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2800093 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 17:05:12 +0000 bhbee 2800093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ChiCalGoBee: I’m so torn about finding out gender early. I was telling my ob that it makes the anatomy scan less exciting ... instead of the big reveal it feels more like a chance to find out something is wrong. But of course seeing baby is still fun - it will be dh’s only ultrasound probably since we don’t have an nt. </p> <p>Of course I still checked yes because I have no patience :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2800037 Fri, 26 Jan 2018 15:21:35 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2800037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: YES! Congratulations! What a relief! Hopefully you'll get NIPT results soon and can really start to relax and enjoy!<br /> I opted out of gender on our NIPT form because I didn't want to know this early in the pregnancy. It will be a fun surprise at our anatomy scan!</p> <p>@crazydoglady: There is such a huge degree of date variability in ultrasounds. I am so hopeful for you! Keep feeling well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799723 Thu, 25 Jan 2018 12:55:19 +0000 crazydoglady 2799723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: I'm so glad things are still going well! I have my next appt on 2/2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799690 Thu, 25 Jan 2018 12:19:12 +0000 bhbee 2799690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@periwinklebee: thinking of you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799689 Thu, 25 Jan 2018 12:18:58 +0000 bhbee 2799689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good news, saw our little wiggly baby today. Looked good and now i just have to wait for panorama. They gave me a login so I’m totally going to obsess about checking it myself. But feels like we are getting so close to where i can relax a bit. </p> <p>@ChiCalGoBee: i definitely dreamed about the gender last time. I guess this time I’ll find out too early for that??</p> <p>@crazydoglady: when is your appt? I am so hopeful for you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799258 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 19:57:45 +0000 crazydoglady 2799258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi, all! I was feeling really down about measuring about 4 days behind and am feeling better about it. I've read so so so much about ultrasounds and how the standard deviation is about +or- 3-5 days. I am trying to hold onto hope that we had a good heartbeat and that this time of pregnancy is vulnerable for everyone.<br /> @bhbee: Oh man, I'm sorry for those dreams. Thursday is nearly here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799246 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 19:19:37 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2799246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Ugh, those dreams are the worst :sad: . I'm so glad your appointment is almost here! No spotting is an excellent sign, so focus on that. :heart: </p> <p>I've had very vivid pregnancy dreams about the sex of this baby. We find out at the end of February, and clearly it's weighing very heavily on my mind because it keeps coming up! Of course this is a silly, frivolous thing to be dreaming about, but man are the dreams vivid!<br /> @periwinklebee: Are you hanging in there? How are you feeling?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799091 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 10:53:23 +0000 periwinklebee 2799091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: Pregnancy dreams are cruel - they can feel so real :sad: Do something to treat yourself today if you can, to make the time go by faster, Thursday is almost here! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2799074 Tue, 23 Jan 2018 09:55:54 +0000 bhbee 2799074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aaaaaaand right on schedule, dreams about bleeding and loss. It doesn’t help that this is right about the time i had my d&amp;c last time. Is it Thursday yet??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-after-loss-support-thread-1/page/14#post-2798895 Mon, 22 Jan 2018 14:55:13 +0000 periwinklebee 2798895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: So close! I don't think I'll ever have an ultrasound that doesn't turn my stomach, but I am so hopeful for you. :goodluck: :goodluck: And that's super sweet about your daughter...I know feeling better can be nerve wracking, but still hope you start feeling better soon. </p>
