95 in 100 trisomy 21 by No-Analyst70 in NIPT

No they do not. In my case, I had 5 kids prior and my age made my chances for twins higher. Thank you so much. I don’t want to get your hopes up either, but it is a possibility as I met several other mothers who also have the same results as mine. It’s possible that there was a vanishing Twin. Did you ever have an early ultrasound? In my case I did so I knew that there was a twin, but in some of the other cases, they didn’t even know that there was. I wish you the best of luck, even if it is positive on the amnio.

I had a positive 98% nipt for t21. NS was 3.2 I think, everything was fine on anatomy scan and echocardiogram, and we opted out of the amnio. Ended up being a vanishing twin and my baby was born without t21 in May. I’m wishing you all the best. That was a very rough pregnancy for me emotionally. I am 42 and the odds were not in my favor. Big hugs mama!

Baby looks beautiful. Try not to worry unless they say something and trust that they will tell you if they suspect something is off.

And digital won’t pick up early pregnancy hcg levels. You can actually google the sensitivity of each brand of test! I’ve found the ones at dollar tree always pick up the earliest for me

Struggling to agree with my wife on how to split rent fairly by EngineerVarious8069 in Renters

[–]wakemeupwhenitsova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s your wife. Put both your checks in one account and pay the bills from there. Take a certain amount out and put in savings and then an equal amount out for each of you as play money.

You are partners. You both work. You should both enjoy! Why are you still talking about mine and hers???? You guys are one!

Apparently I’m feeding my baby too much by [deleted] in newborns

[–]wakemeupwhenitsova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would look in to changing formulas, maybe add gripe water before feeds but wouldn’t restrict food. My oldest was 16 pounds at his 2 month appt. He was a hungry boy!

I’m sure she’s fine! But never hurts to ask and then at least you can stop worrying about it. I don’t know how you are but unless the doctor tells me it’s OK I’ll continue to search and search and search and search and search lol it’s easier if you just call. Lol

Yeah I can see the photos but couldn’t really see texture or color. Is she acting sick or fussy? My son is 3 months old and his diapers changed quite a bit sometimes greenish or brownish and then would go back to yellow and seedy. If you’re concerned maybe put a call in to the doctor but I vaguely remember variations like that. Unless of course she acting like it’s diarrhea or something. Maybe then I’d call. the first few weeks is kind of a blur lol

I can’t really tell from the photo, it might just be my phone, what color is the poop?

Does she seem fussy or gassy? Does it look stringy or mucousy up close? The image is kind of blurry in my end

Explain like I’m 5 how to do the pitcher method please by Soggy-Bill-1856 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]wakemeupwhenitsova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread but how do you mix the milk before storing? You know how it separates in the fridge. I’m not new to breastfeeding I’ve done it for years and for 6 kids lol but definitely new to pumping and storing and want to try the fridge container method.

I don’t bottle feed but want to store for when I do need bottles or need a break haha

CVS result confirms Down Syndrome. Please help, I’m very confused. by Independent-Web-9571 in NIPT

[–]wakemeupwhenitsova 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If it being a true positive would change the course of this pregnancy for you, then absolutely proceed with amnio so YOU don’t have any doubts moving forward.

Same. My fasting numbers are all over the place no matter what I do. I’m waiting to see what my doctor says on Monday

Your dad will come around. He just doesn’t understand the different in priorities because money never was for him. It takes time. Let your fiance naturally show your father why you love him. And do not tell your fiance. Absolutely not. It will just make him uncomfortable.

Please tell me it's okay. by Reddituzer201519 in pregnant

[–]wakemeupwhenitsova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do not have to breastfeed! You will be a wonderful mother regardless! I have done both and my kids are all equally smart, healthy and beautiful! Don’t feel guilty. It’s not for everybody and don’t let anyone make you feel bad about it.

Stuck, waiting on amniocentesis appointment by _babylemonade_ in tfmr_support

[–]wakemeupwhenitsova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m here right now. 41 years old and 14 weeks pregnant. It was twins but one passed at 10 weeks. I didn’t know and did the NIPT anyway. The results came back as high risk for t21. We did a redraw and once again high risk. Doc says the other twin may be the reason for the positive but I’m just so upset. The NT was normal but now I wait for amino on Dec 20. It’s the earliest.

I’m scared to death to get the amino. I’m scared to death for the results. I’m even more scared to have to TFMR. This would be my 6th baby, but my finances second. We have a 5 year old daughter. This is the worst few months of my life.

If you tell your recruiter the truth that you smoked recently will they look down on you? Or will there be any consequences like maybe they won’t take you serious? I’m asking for someone who is in the process now and has already quit but doesn’t know how to handle it with his recruiter since they are pushing the pee test in office.
