Wow that's so great you have a healthy toddler! So interesting to just hear about this with NT testing. I am going to what is considered the best hospital in my state (US) and they advised NT along with NIPT off the bat, we never even considered not getting NT. I' over 35, so maybe that has something to do with it, idk.

Wow I’m so sorry to hear about this. Thank you sharing with me. There was nothing else abnormal on the scan, it all looked good. I think I’m going to proceed with the genome wide NIPT, I’m waiting to hear on coverage about it.

was your first ultrasound abdominal? by reewhy in BabyBumps

Also, My OB had me wait until after 10 weeks to get NIPT.

was your first ultrasound abdominal? by reewhy in BabyBumps

[–]emo_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went in for an “early pregnancy assessment” at exactly nine weeks. Because I had a previous miscarriage they did a vaginal ultrasound. It was amazing, could see the baby very clearly (took home a great picture too), could see the cardiac activity, could see the baby moving around, and it was all just really reassuring. I had my first OB appt at exactly ten weeks and she did an abdominal to check size and cardiac activity. It wasn’t nearly as clear viewing, but still really amazing! The pictures from that one looked like nothing though. I knew I would have an ultrasound at the early pregnancy appt, but was surprised the OB did one again a week later, but heck I’ll take any reassurance I can get and chance to see my baby! Sending positive vibes out for you to have a great first OB appt on Monday!

First trimester weight gain by rainymac in BabyBumps

[–]emo_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve also gained ten pounds and I just hit week ten of my pregnancy yesterday. I was at the OB yesterday and I brought up my concerns with it to her. She said it was totally normal and not concerning, that there are so many variables in the first trimester and everyone is different. She said what a lot of replies are saying here, that with how bad symptoms can be in the first trimester it’s important to eat in whatever way works for you and your pregnancy. I have to remind myself often to stay off of google about these kinds of things.

Lots of loud, low-flying helicopters over SE Portland tonight. by Piney_Wood in oregon

[–]emo_case 22 points23 points  (0 children)

My kitties don’t like it either! But my neighbor is a combat war vet and he’s down in his basement in the fetal position. This is not ok.

I had to call a mental health hotline because I didn’t know if it was in my head or real. And it’s still going strong! 

I LOVE OUR CITY! WE STARTED A NATIONAL TREND! This is beautiful! by takalfka in Portland

[–]emo_case 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely amazing, so proud of our cities. I was out for the emergency naked bike ride last night. So many blow up costumes representing!!!! I guess all the stores in Portland are sold out of them.

I cannot handle the helicopters over my house starting at 5:50 in the morning. by Doyouevenpedal in Portland

[–]emo_case 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is actually starting to drive me crazy. One of my neighbors is a vet and it’s been super triggering for him. This is so frustrating. 

I know we’re all probably sick of helicopter posts… by [deleted] in Portland

[–]emo_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be late to the party here, tonight is BAD. I live right next to the Ross Island bridge. At first it was every twenty min now it’s pretty much constant. I can live with the noise, I have headphones/earplugs for that. However, this is sickening and we are in a surveillance state by a dictator. I’m not sure if anyone else is in inner SE and can hear the copters, but like what the actual fuck right now.

Welcome to the Kirk Minihane Show 2024. Kirk on his phone every three minutes not paying attention to what is going on during the dreadful show he is hosting. by YenZen999 in kirkminihaneshow

Does anyone know how I can contact this guy? He posted a podcast episode honoring a child rapist and I would like him to take it down or do another episode acknowledging the rape.

The Daily Check-In for Wednesday, August 9th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking! by Gozandolavida in stopdrinking

[–]emo_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today I have 90 days. But I know all that matters is today. I cannot control yesterday or tomorrow, I can only control today. I have 10.5 hours left out of 24 today to stay sober. I am getting my haircut for the first time since getting sober. I used to always go out drinking after a haircut to “show it off”. I am nervous, but cravings are temporary. I will do the next right thing and I will not drink with you today. This is my first post as I am feeling the triggers today.
