2 Week Wait Pal - Audrey, LJ, Deb, Nikki, Toni, Amy NEW POST
Girls we have to, yet again start a new thread.
Congrats! My 4yo still wants me to carry her occasionally and I just have to tell her that she's too heavy. Yours is just too young to understand that, I know. Best wishes.
Happy New Year Girls!
Glenda- so sorry to hear about what you and your little one are going through.
Hopeful- I hope your GD test goes well.
I just finished my two week wait after my FET and we got a positive test result (after I did a HPT and got a negative because I tested early---just couldn't wait) . We are very excited but worried because I know a lot can happen between now and 9 months from now. I am not supposed to be lifting more than 10 lbs. but finding it very difficult because my one year old has to be almost 30. I am just trying not to lift her from the floor but it is near impossible. We have our first ultrasound on the 19th..and hope all is growing the way it should.
Again Happy New year!

Sorry to hear about what ahs been going on with your pregnancy. I hope you little one will be ok. I'm glad the amnio showed that all is well. Please keep me posted.
I went to see my Peri today and he expressed slight concern about me having excessive amniotic fluid. He is concerned because it can cause preterm labor and is a sign of GD. I will be tested for it afer the holidays.
Enjoy your Christmas and New Years too.

Well, our visit with the perinatologist was both bad and good. The specialist confirmed that we only have 2 blood vessels in the umbilical cord. He said the nuchal fold thickness looked normal to him; however, he said it was too close to the "useful" cutoff date to be accurate. He also discovered that the baby has 2 additional holes in his heart. Between my age and the heart defect, he seemed convinced the baby had Trisomy 13 or 18 which are both usually fatal. Given that info we consented to an amnio and discovered that our baby boy is chromosomally healthy (no Downs or anything). We'll probably have to see a pediatric cardiologist before the baby is born, but God may decide to heal the baby's heart in the meantime. Time will tell.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too.

How is everyone doing? Any updates to report? Hope everyone has a great Holiday and a Happy New Year!
Congrats! A boy is wonderful. You must be so excited. I see a Perinatologist too. It's great. They have the best equipment.
My two have active and quiet days. I'm 21 weeks now and we have picked names but are keeping them secret for now.
