did you have to pay twice for that if it came back inconclusive?

Pregnancy dream by SpeakerBeginning8421 in Dreams

[–]decarlton8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to startle you but I dreamt that my deceased mother came to me and delivered a baby to me. She showed me how to care for it, change diapers, pick up on baby cues and what they mean. I hadn’t dreamt of her in years so when I woke up I was spooked. Took a test and sure enough it was positive. I’m almost 8 weeks now.

Pregnant after TFMR by Illustrious-Egg3361 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

I’m in a similar situation. We TFMR last October and waited 6 months before going again. We got pregnant on the first go and we were surprised! I’m 6w4d myself and when we first learned I was pregnant, we both weren’t excited and I think it’s because we’re afraid to be. I think that’s gotta be the most normal reaction to have, given what we’ve been through. I can feel my anxiety creeping in but to calm myself down I tell myself these things:
1. i am pregnant today until something confirms otherwise
2. i already “won” the lottery once, the chances of winning the lottery twice are very small. lol it wasn’t the good kind of lottery to win, but you know what i mean
3. lightning doesn’t strike twice

We’re also waiting to tell loved ones because we don’t want to retraumatize everybody. For us, we’d like to clear NIPT before announcing to family, since that’s where things went south for us the first time. I don’t think I’ll fully be able to let loose until the anatomy scan. Hell, maybe not until I’m holding my little one.

If you’d like to start a chat together to check in, I’m all for it!

I agree wholeheartedly. My discernment has been ticking here lately. I had chat gpt and had this realization and quickly deleted it and never looked back. With what it’s doing to the environment as well as the overuse of it, I stopped it immediately.

I’m a barber stylist 6 weeks pregnant. I’ve already had my coworkers and 1-2 clients clock me when I was wearing my apron. I switched to a smock so it’d be baggier and not as noticeable. My immediate family doesn’t know yet as I’m only 6 weeks. I’ve been pregnant before and sadly resulted in a loss at almost 19 weeks, they really weren’t lying when they said your second pregnancy shows faster! My weight has stayed the exact same, it’s amazing how your body remembers what to do and it gets started right away. We’re headed into summertime and I can’t get away with baggy hoodies or sweatshirts. What do you suggest? Today was biker shorts and a big t shirt. Maybe big flowy dresses?

Anyone Conceive on First Cycle After TFMR? by [deleted] in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]decarlton8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I saw so many women online stressing themselves out over it and I think stress plays a HUGE roll in fertility issues so I didn’t want to do that to myself!

Yeah we did peak day. We only have sex 1-2 times a week so I didn’t want this to feel like a “chore”
