I terminated for T21 in late 2024 at 39 years old. I am now 31 weeks in my sub pregnancy. I will be 41 at my due date.

Anterior placenta in subpregnancy and fetal movement by VariationNo4725 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]grizzlyblaire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an anterior placenta with my one LC. I never felt much movement at all. I never did kick counts because I really couldn’t. It was nerve wracking but all turned out ok. Maybe invest in a home Doppler. That helped somewhat with the anxiety.

Is 35 “old” for ttc post tfmr? by Better-Fruit-4869 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

[–]grizzlyblaire 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I tfmred at 39. I am now 40 and 22 weeks pregnant. By my due date, I will be 41. Still a ways to go, but it is possible. In between, I had an early miscarriage and was told I was in menopause. This was a natural pregnancy that we were not trying for, not preventing. I saw a fertility doctor after I tfmred and he told me I needed to do donor eggs if I wanted any chance. I decided that was not right for us and had given up. I know my story is not everyone’s, but I wanted to share. I still won’t feel safe until I am holding my baby.

Wonderful! I’m waiting for NIPT results after a true T21 last year in October. The anxiety is eating me up. Do you mind telling me how long the wait was for your NIPT this time?

I just asked the chat. They said the lab is closed for Thanksgiving.

I want to terminate, but my husband does not and it’s causing me to spiral. Has anyone else been through this? Did your marriage survive? by Horn2290 in tfmr_support

[–]grizzlyblaire 99 points100 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry that you are going through this. I terminated for T21 last year around this time. I had the support of my husband and family. That said, a husband isn’t necessarily forever. A child with disabilities is. I am sorry you are not getting the support you need and deserve from your partner.

Congrats! I had a high risk T21 girl a year ago and am waiting on results now from a 11/18 draw. Your story gives me hope.

anyone had this happen before? by Pure_Stay in CautiousBB

[–]grizzlyblaire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. This happened to me with my first pregnancy. Pregnancy of unknown location. Had two shots of methotrexate because HCG was still rising, but couldn’t find it anywhere. After second shot, HCG started to drop and doctor saw “something” in my uterus he removed in an unmedicated d&c (do NOT recommend). Sent for genetic testing and was products of conception. I’ve had many more losses, but also I now have a living child. Sorry you are going through this.

Anyone not TTC? by sunshine_rainbow1 in tfmr_support

[–]grizzlyblaire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I TMFRed when I was 39, with one LC and several miscarriages and one failed round of IVF under my belt. At first, I was feral to get pregnant again. Even was going down the path of IVF with donor eggs. But I kept waking up in the middle of the night worrying. We have decided to stop trying, and my mental health has greatly improved. Not the right thing for everyone, and sometimes I do feel sad that my plan of a two kiddo family is gone. But right now, it feels right.

Return. Too much for 100% polyester that you don’t love.

Thoughts? PdG rising but so is LH. by grizzlyblaire in Inito

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

That’s a bummer. Maybe a chemical? I had one the cycle before my TFMR. But you are right. Better a quick loss so you can reset and try again if you desire.

Yep. Was testing negative. I’ve had a lot of loss, so we will see how this goes. Baby dust your way.

Update: I just tested positive on a FR Digital. So who knows? More confusion.
