I’m currently 37+5 with my second and I’m terrified. I’m so scared of going into to labour. I’m cramping badly and 1-2 cms. I can’t shift the anxiety of what’s to come next. I just keep telling myself husband I can’t do it. My first birth was about 12 hours. I had forceps and episiotomy. I didn’t think it had affec...

Has anyone taken this test? Is it even accurate? Worth paying for? I’ve seen lots of mixed reviews where some folks say it was accurate and others say the male DNA contamination could cause false boy results. We might wait to get NIPT testing, but it’ll definitely be a struggle to wait till week 20!

There’s a lot of fear as I approach the 30 weeks mark as that’s when everything went south with my first and I delivered at 30 weeks.
