I am so sorry to hear the journey you’ve been on to hold your baby in your arms, but please don’t think for a second this should invalidate how hard those first few weeks are. It’s a huge life adjustment and the hormones are wild. you got this muma, you will settle into a new normal and as the weeks pass things will get easier and easier. 🫶🏼

Thanks so much. This really helps. I wasn't sure if there was somthing wrong with me. I have a 8week scan booked for next week just to settle my thoughts xxx

Yes I felt the same way and felt bad about myself for doing so. But, these group of girls really help me not to feel that way. All these wild hormones that won’t stop coming through. I was in a rough state around 6-9 week mark and just felt depressed. It’s gotten so much better though! You got this 🩷

Seeing a lot of October babies announcements on social media

😳 I feel like I’m the only one who haven’t announced my October baby! Everyday I open social media and someone is announcing their October baby and I even started to see some November babies being announced.

NIPT

Has anyone gone for there nipt testing yet?

I just got my nipt results back and they all came back inconclusive because of low fetal fraction, I was 10 weeks 6 days when I got it done and there wasn’t enough fetal dna for any results.

Does failing the 1hr glucose test mean gestational diabetes?

I was told at the lab my levels came up high. I have hypoglycemia and I notice I’m low on sugar levels when I get very sleepy and am rested. After drinking that orange thing, like 10-15min after I felt I was getting sleepy. I thought it was the crash after the loads of sugar from that drink (normal to hypoglycemia) but then they checked ny urine sample and sha said it was high. That they were waiting to run the testing on the blood sample after to be sure of more details they could share later. Does that mean I’m likely to have gestational diabetes? I’m nervous 🥺
