So got my panorama results today (like the Harmony test), they verbally left me a message to say that I am low risk for all trisomy's which is great Smile but I now have the report emailed to me which tells me the sex and I am really really desperate to open it. Stupid DP is in a meeting at the moment for work and we agreed that I would email it to him and open it at the same time (we are both hopeless!)..... I am so excited and seriously its so hard not to take a sneak peek!

Not sure if this will be read as i didnt really feel intergrated with the group but my scan is tomorrow am. Have been looking forward to it for the past few weeks, just checking my baby is all happy and good.
Panicked a bit on friday because i started brown discharge then called gp on Monday for advice because there was small clotting too. Waiting for scan from the epu but i have to say they are sh!t. Terse shirty women on recpetion and not helpful. Had to chase for referal from drs, epu saying they hadnt recieved it and that i should jusy wait for call, oh, and sometimes it takes a week for an apointment for an emergency scan.
By the by, while waiting for this mystry phonecall, last night i started bleeding heavily and was at a & e for 4 hrs. Very optomistic amd lovely drs there, but a scan this morning showed o am in the process of miscarrying.
Am now at home resting with my husband and feel pretty devastated to experience my second miscarriage this year. Tomorrow should have been a great day to announce my pregnancy at 12 weeks but sadly it isnt so.

Thank you all, youve been so entertaining, full of useful information and also very supportive, in a virtual sense. Ive loved reading all your posts. Have a safe pregnancy all and enjoy your time. Hopefully one day i will be as lucky and happy as you all are. S1mmy xxx

HannahC1989 · 27/11/2013 14:15

Lmf679 · 27/11/2013 15:04

So sorry to hear your loss S1ammy xxx

Vickyvix · 27/11/2013 15:05

hannah glad it's not just me being angry! I have such a short fuse at the moment, work colleagues get the brunt of it but poor DH has had his fair share too! Blush

mitchell fab news on your test results! You have quite some will power not to sneak a peak! I am so excited you are going to find out so soon! I am so keen to find out what our bean is. I am willing your other half to finish his meeting pronto!!!!! Grin

Lmf679 · 27/11/2013 15:12

I am fuming!!!! Angry I did a really long event at work yesterday (was supposed to be 8am - 1am, a lot of that on my feet), I had to tell my boss and two team members about the pregnancy as I'd been really sick and also had to agree with my boss not to do such long hours at the event. I find out today that somebody has been gossiping and told practically the whole company!!!!!! I have my suspicions on who it is but can't prove anything. I'm so mad at them because they know I'm only 10 weeks and only told them because of this event and being so ill. I've not even told family members yet, i'm so angry that about 30 people at work know before them and are all happily gossiping about it like it's just some office gossip to share.

Rant over, I had to share! Sorry!!

wispaxmas · 27/11/2013 15:14

So sorry to hear, s1mmy Thanks

Mitchell, will you tell us the sex as well? I'm excited on your behalf!!

So he finally got out of the meeting.....

it's a GIRL Smile - to be honest I didn't give to hoots as to what sex it was, but DP wanted it really badly to be a girl so I am so happy for him.

The more relieving thing is that I am super low risk in all the trisomy's which pushed down to 1/10,000 which given I'm nearly 35 is such a relief.

I can't believe that I know the sex so early! Still going for my NHS scan in two weeks time as it was recommended as my scan was 9+5 and the NHS one will be able to check development better. So a bit nervous for that but and super relieved to tick the other boxes off my list.

LMF I would fuming as well. That is just so rude and I cannot understand why people are such gossips about pregnancy.

MTMD · 27/11/2013 15:44

Lmf, i would be upset as well! When I told my manager I stressed that no one else knows and if there's a leak I'll know who leaked it :) Having said that, I think she must have told other managers because she is quite gossipy and I cannot imagine her not saying anything to them because they're best buddies etc etc But I decided I don't care too much.. I mean, I put my favourite work outfit this morning and there's an obvious bump and giant boobs, one needs to be blind not to suspect anything! I imagine when I finally tell work people, it won't come as a surprise...

S1mmy, I'm lost for words, so so sorry :(

hackneybird · 27/11/2013 16:01

S1mmy I am thinking of you. Twice in one year is just awful, awful luck. x

BEEwitched · 27/11/2013 16:04

S1mmy, I'm really sorry to hear your news, sending hugs your way.

Mitchell, yay! Excellent results, and I'm a bit Envy that you know the gender, we'd love a girl and my bloods are currently in London for a hormone test - I wish I'd known that they can tell, maybe I could've wangled something! Our trust doesn't tell you so after January 6th I'll have to post my scan picture and let you guess!

wispaxmas · 27/11/2013 16:13

Bee, if you're desperate to know the sex you could always opt for a private scan, they can usually tell from 16 weeks!

Really sorry to hear that, Simmy. Take care of yourself Thanks

SicknSpan · 27/11/2013 16:27

S1mmy I'm so, so sorry to hear of your loss. Your pain leaps off the page, I hope you and dh get the support you need. Massive squishy hugs Thanks

BEEwitched · 27/11/2013 16:39

Wispa, the sonographer at my private Nuchal was quick to offer but given that the Nuchal was £250 I'm not sure I can justify it. (I really want to, though)

CarrotCakeMuffins · 27/11/2013 16:55

S1mmy, I'm so very sorry to hear your sad news. I know how heartbreaking it is. Take care of yourself. Sending Thanks and Cake your way.

Liquidambar · 27/11/2013 17:15

S1mmy I'm so sorry. Please look after yourself and good luck for the future Flowers

MinaLeeds · 27/11/2013 17:47

s1mmy I'm so sorry to hear about your mc. :( You must be going through hell at the moment but remember to take care of yourself and each other. Hugs!

giraffelegs · 27/11/2013 18:21

s1mmy I'm so sorry for loss. Sad And ig from earlier in the week. Thanks for you both.

giraffelegs · 27/11/2013 18:28

Congratulations on all the scans with good news, exciting times! I will be 12 weeks tomorrow and scan is on Friday.

It's getting very hard to hide my tummy at work, it suddenly popped out at 10 weeks. The bosses know anyway due to a redundancy situation that arose so at least I don't have to try and hold it in around them! My nausea has had a bit of a surge the last couple of evenings, bleurgh.

I haven't made up my mind when to start ml yet. Fairly early I think so I can spend some time with DD and get some rest before the chaos begins. Smile
