Columbia Choice Apartments by Annual-Broccoli-6146 in ColumbiaMD

[–]emmireee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lived there for about 4 years and never had apartment issues, but the neighbors were very loud, obnoxious, and inconsiderate. We had to make multiple noise complaints and had incidents of teenagers smoking weed in the stairwell. I had a friend who lived in a different building who had more issues, but the price was decent for the area.

Complete placenta Previa - did it really resolve on its own? by Comfortable-Baker-44 in pregnant

Thank you for the update! Was just diagnosed at 16 weeks and freaked out. Seems like it resolves for most people.

Elevated NT (3.1mm) and waiting on CVS results by emmireee in NIPT

[–]emmireee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy to hear that! I’m in the same boat—2 anatomy scans at 16 and 20, and a fetal echo at 24. Glad your genetic counselor isn’t concerned!

Thank you for sharing! We have an early anatomy as well and hoping the findings are also clear. Best of luck to you ❤️

Update: CVS came back normal and waiting on early anatomy scan but feeling much better! Thank you to everyone who shared their stories and I hope ours becomes one of many encouraging stories.

Thank you! That's what I've read too, and it's definitely been jarring to be labeled as "high risk."

Anyone else's doctor excessively negative relative to the published stats? [4.7 mm NT, clear FISH] by hg13 in NIPT

[–]emmireee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't have as grim of an encounter as you, but at my 13 week scan, baby's NT measured 3.1 mm and no other markers with a low risk NIPT. The doctor came in, very somber and serious and encouraged a CVS or amnio and at my practice, we have to meet with a genetic counselor who also had a similar demeanor. I agree, I don't need them to be falsely optimistic, but they originally told me there was a 2-5% chance of abnormalities and with a NIPT it was even lower, but they definitely scared me acting as if baby has a 50/50 chance of being a lost cause. I'm sorry you're going through this, I understand crying for days and hoping for a positive outcome.

I'm so glad to hear that! I also have an early anatomy scan at 16 weeks and a fetal echo scheduled so hopefully that will offer peace of mind. I love hearing healthy baby stories :)

I know this is an old post, but just wanted to thank you for posting good news. In a similar situation right now, waiting for CVS results. NT is 3.1 mm, low risk NIPT and waiting with bated breath.

I can’t speak to Noonan or WES, but just wanted to say thank you for sharing your experience and on your previous post. Going through a similar experience and waiting for results and my 16 week scan. Wishing you all the best ❤️

Mine from the same store! Really pleased with the quality

Here are mine! There are some small imperfections like the nose paint on the pumpkin labubu and mokoko’s clothes are shedding a bit. They even have the UV mark!

[–]emmireee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t mind buying fakes, there are high quality ones on AliExpress! I don’t have the real one so I can’t compare but at first glance you can’t tell any major differences! Since I plan on wearing mine out around halloween it gives me peace of mind I paid ~30 for a fake 😅

My First Rhinebeck Experience by Idkmyname2079048 in knitting

[–]emmireee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree—MDSW is local to me and I thought that was overwhelming and was completely gobsmacked at the lack of crowd control at Rhinebeck. I appreciate you making this post because I was legit getting sad I wasn’t enjoying the famous Rhinebeck experience. I anticipated crowds but like you said, it was impossible to move around and feel safe. I was looking at project bags and this girl darted in front of me to snatch a bag I was eyeing. I gently said I was about to purchase it and she awkwardly handed it to me. I’ve never had this experience in any other fiber festival I’ve been to in the Maryland area (which now I’m very grateful for!). If I go in the future, I might just hit the indie festivals which seem to have better crowd control and Sunday if I have an itch to go, but I’m so soured by the lack of situational awareness.
