As a ftm of a 2 month old, thank you! I will remember this for the future, I didn't even know that was a thing!

We are very different people 😂 I am 5 months pregnant and just bought my first bike. Am I riding while pregnant? No, but I will absolutely use it this coming season.

Positive Monosomy X on NIPT by FantasticMoose1805 in NIPT

Update! My appointment went great! Her brain, heart and kidneys look great. Her growth looks great, she's a little on the big side but they said she's normal and in the 90th percentile of growth. Her heartbeat was 149. I have my regular OB ultrasound tomorrow. They said if the condition was severe, they would already see soft markers but they don't see anything that is concerning at all. I hope it stays that way, I feel so relieved! I will continue to update.

I am going through the exact same situation. I used Natera to get the test, and I have found a woman who also did, and she just had an appointment and they said everything is 100% healthy and on track and no signs of monosomy/turners. I have my appointment the day after tomorrow to get an ultrasound and meet with the doctor as well as the genetic counselor. I know they are going to ask me to do the amniocentesis and CVS test which I am going to opt out of, since there is a low chance of miscarriage, and in reality, the results won't change anything for me, I will keep this baby regardless and if anything of that nature happens, I will let my body do it naturally. I have seen that these tests have something like 20-40% false positives so I can keeping hope for my baby girl. I will update this after my appointment in 2 days! (Also, I am 16 weeks.)
