Me, Myself & I... Lower carb, fasting, real live foods

Had my 2nd dating scan today plus blood test for Down's syndrome risk etc . Scan was normal so will see what blood test says in 2 weeks. Confirmed my dates as 5/11 as due date and that I'm 12 + 2 weeks have next scan at 20 weeks (June 20th) and find out what I'm having :)

Glad all went well, bonfire night baby then xx
 
Feeling much better, hay fever is back under control and my asthma is getting there .. Still coughing but much less and haven't pee'ed myself lately ;) lol

Back to my kettlercise class tomorrow .. Ouchie .. Well will see how I go and take it easy as haven't been for 3 weeks over end of term/ Easter hols. I'm hoping that as I start to feel less ill in the evenings I can start going to the Thursday evening class too.,
 
Made the decision to actually go to kettlercise .. Was unsure earlier .. Know it's good for my body :) keeping it strong
 
Feel good for going to kettlercise :)

WI today 98.4kg so a STS .. Was a 400g gain at 6am but managed to pee it away lol

Have been very tired/ sleepy this week . Hope I'm not so sleepy next week ! As got nothing done in the house and cooking what a laugh .. my family had to eat weird foods .. Hello did sandwiches one night for dinner for my kids - they were very confused ! OH had a diet ready meal - not that I told him lol and takeaways .. I had stuff to cook but just could not make myself do it!

Here's to a more productive week!
 
Have been feeling less hungry last few days and scales are down a bit too :)

The 11am eat or feel sick feeling has disappeared so far this week :)
 
I got my blood test back yesterday for my risk of Down's syndrome etc and both my Papp A and BHCG levels were low - so am panicking that there is something wrong with baby, as MW said that it's possible due to both of them being low.

Am tempted to use some of our rainy day money to find out through a type of blood test that checks the DNA of baby for abnormal chromosomes.

I have another scan next week to check things out with the head scanner and consultant at the hospital. Am upset and nervous but trying not to be as what will be will be..
 
Sorry to hear this, how long would you have to wait for tests? Keeping everything crossed for you xx
 
I will get the harmony test done, and will get results in 2 weeks. Am hoping that every thing is ok. Will find out end of May.
 
If the harmony test comes back positive I will get further tests done to confirm it.

What sort of screening have they offered you? Have they calculated your risk? The harmony tests are very good and fairly accurate! Xx
 
I've had the normal scan and blood test at 12 weeks - result for downs was 1-630, but as my Results came back with both low levels of B-hcg (0.13/ norm .40) and PaPP A (.14/ norm 1.0+). They suggested Baby is at risk of Edwards syndrome. NT scan 1.98 but they didn't give me a risk factor for Edwards .. Will see consultant when I have my scan next week and talk more then .. But Tuesday seems so far away
 
Oh honey try & remain positive. I know about Edwards syndrome, let's just pray that's not the case & I know it seems a long time off but nothing we can do to speed time I only wish I could xx
 
Have they recommended he harmony test then? Anything non invasive is a good start.

My understanding may be incorrect but I thought this was for downs only - but I may be wrong!

I'll keep everything crossed and ofc tues will feel like a lifetime away! Hugs xxx
