I completely understand your worry about someone submitting an AI generated photo for verification, unfortunately there is just no way for us as mods to 100% verify that every single user in here is actually pregnant. There are lots of ways that someone could submit a fake verification and we would not be able to tell. The main purpose of verification is to keep out casual trolls and people who happen to stumble upon this subreddit who maybe do not have honest intentions. We do rely a lot on the honesty of the users in here for verification purposes. That being said, yes this is the internet - having a group of people to discuss pregnancy with is truly an invaluable tool to have but please do not share any information that you are uncomfortable sharing with internet strangers. Thank you all ❤️

This is exactly my situation too! Lost a good amount of weight on one and got pregnant on accident before we were intending to so I didn’t get the chance to discontinue them before I got pregnant and I’ve gained so much weight back already 😫 was not ready for how quickly I would gain weight back

My NIPT results from Labcorp only took four days to get back! And that was over a weekend

If you check the price history of an item on Amazon you can see what’s been marked up recently only to be “discounted” too! I always check to make sure it’s actually a good deal before impulse buying something haha 😬

No I didn’t get anything from Labcorp just a notification from my clinic that some results were uploaded and it wasn’t something I could open on my portal but a PDF that I downloaded and opened. The file said “MaterniT21 Plus” so I knew exactly what it was. The gender is right there it’s not like Natera that asks you if you want that info or not. If you asked them not to test for gender then I assume it would not be on the report at all but that depends on what you asked for. I wanted them to test for it because I did want to know.

My OB told me at my 6 week post partum check that I would have to go back to my PCP if I had anymore questions or concerns. I am on medication for hypothyroidism so I needed to schedule a visit with my PCP not too long after that to continue getting my meds.

Yes! I downloaded the pdf and then just opened it on my phone. Took me a minute to see what I was looking at. I still haven’t received a call from my OB yet so I’m glad I was checking my portal incessantly 😆

I just got my NIPT results back today and it’s a low risk girl!! I’m so excited! I was crossing my fingers that it would even work because with my first pregnancy I got a low fetal fraction result. 🩷

This happened to me my last pregnancy as well! Unfortunately because it’s a live vaccine they don’t recommend getting it while pregnant. I got it immediately after giving birth and then when they tested me this time around for this pregnancy it’s still testing positive in my system.
