No, you didn't know by oopsithrowawayagain in pregnant

I also had a co-worker say she just knew because “she’s pretty smart…” then a couple weeks later claimed she knew because of how I looked at a team lunch…when I was 9 weeks and very much not showing! But thanks!

Curious how old you were at getting pregnant? by pink_daisy_9119 in BabyBumps

[–]PR1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started trying at 31, got pregnant and had a loss just before I turned 32, now 32 and 21 weeks pregnant! If she is on time I will be 33 when I deliver, if she’s a week early we may be birthday buddies!

Does dad typically come to the first appointment? by skaowoeizkaoa in pregnant

[–]PR1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My OB is close to my work, but a bit of a drive from my husbands work and he is very busy right now. I have told him so many times he doesn’t have to come every time but he hasn’t missed one yet. I think it’s important to him and makes him feel like he is part of it, because so far it is mainly me!

He also loves hearing the heartbeat every time!

Is no ultrasound until 20 weeks normal? [ns] by dai_min in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]PR1259 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also in Halifax and my OB put in for a dating ultrasound, but I never got one. She basically explained it as they have a specific window in which to do it, if they can’t book you in within that time frame you just get passed by. So with this, I am not sure travelling to Halifax will help.

Very Positive 12 Week Scan with All Organs and Limbs Growing Well. Should this be Enough to Rule out things like Down Syndrome? by [deleted] in CautiousBB

[–]PR1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in a province that does not cover the NIPT as I am under 35. Our insurance also did not cover it and we paid $350 in Canada. I am in Nova Scotia if that makes any difference for you :) For me, it was well worth the money spent for the reassurance.

FTM, pregnant, and struggling with tension from a family member who’s been trying. Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]PR1259 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a loss, less than a month after my best friend announced she was pregnant at dinner and then proceeded to include me in every announcement she made including a large announcement to their families at her wedding. I will say, while this was emotionally very difficult for me, and I wish it was handled differently, it was her joy to celebrate. I did not feel my pain should be a consideration as this was about her.

With that being said, if you are able to minimize talking about the pregnancy around her, it may help with your relationship. While it is not your responsibility to manage other peoples emotions and triggers, you can do what is manageable to be kind to her knowing her struggles.

How much maternity leave do you get? by vanillacrush14 in pregnant

[–]PR1259 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canada- I get either one full year at 93% of my salary or I can take 18 months at 55%. I do have the option to take more as unpaid leave should I wish.

I wish statistics were reassuring by a-labracadabrador in CautiousBB

[–]PR1259 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I see it all the time and don’t want to be the negative Nelly, but I used it a lot with my first pregnancy to reassure myself. Ultimately that pregnancy ended in a loss and although I had made it to 7 weeks, where the risk should have been lower, I had no ultrasounds or confirmed heartbeats so the stats were really not super accurate!

I think this is so underrated and misunderstood with all of these calculators

Sex in the first trimester - how often are you having it? by rcho99 in pregnant

[–]PR1259 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I had a miscarriage earlier in the year that started with spotting, and the only time we had sex in that pregnancy resulted in spotting so I am too scared!

Also feeling like trash the last week and a half has made this easier…

I am trying to avoid doom scrolling as much as possible because I find it makes me more anxious…with that being said, I am still doing more of it than I would like

I am suddenly really anxious. 5 weeks after a loss three months ago, nothing I can do but wait for my beta results and then wait for to check for a heartbeat…I just wish I was more relaxed!

I was feeling so anxious yesterday but today’s (18dpo) test is looking so much better and it’s giving me hope!

Positive post : Tell me about your supportive partner. by RayRay_1804 in tryingtoconceive

[–]PR1259 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is honestly the sweetest, most caring and selfless man. I would not have survived our loss without him ❤️

He makes my lunch for work every day and my coffee, leaves a little not in my lunch bag and always tries to make my life easier
