Amnesia?

This is my third baby. My oldest is 9 and my youngest is almost 7. I am amazed how this pregnancy feels so new to me, (I'm 8 weeks 3 days, 30 years old) its almost like I'm a first time mom because I don't remember my previous pregnancies very much. I only remember major things like being super nauseas with my daughter and then the opposite with my son. Every thing that happens feels like its the first time for me, I'm wondering if its just me. Anyone else that has quite a few years in between pregnancies that feels the same way?

I know exactly how you feel. I am 30 my oldest is 9 my youngest is 5 and I feel totally lost. Even walking in to babies r us is stressful. Everything is so different.  Also this pregnancy has been Sooo hard on me I have been so nauseous and sick all the time. I am 14 weeks and my nausea is finally starting to claim down a little. I don't remember being sick like this with my boys. Anyway, you are definitely not alone!

I think they do. They took my blood at 11 weeks and took 2 weeks to find out. I'd ask your doc if they offer it.

I'm definitely more worried this time around too. Do all doctors offer the Harmony test?

Same here!!! My youngest is 5, but I feel like I don't remember anything from my last pregnancies.  Even how they do some of the tests. For example they didn't have the Harmony blood test to find out the sex back then. Oh I took advantage of that this time!! Lol Knew the sex of my baby at 13 weeks!
