Pregnant after a Loss

AW Time. (jenkellen)

Sorry I haven't been around much ladies! The last 4 weeks were pure torture waiting for the NT scan and getting my bloodwork appt. My symptoms have mostly disappeared and I still don't have a bump (I'm 13 weeks) so I was a bit nervous something was wrong. 

Turns out all is just fine! Baby is measuring 5 days ahead and all measurements looked perfect. First set of bloodwork for sequential screen puts me at extremely low risk for any chromosomal abnormalities. My doctor was able to convince me that my belly is actually growing a bit, just still hard to tell. I think I'll just be one of those people that shows a lot later. So bump pics for a few more weeks :(

We are now "out" to most of our friends and family, which is a huge relief. I'm now going to see how long I can go without telling work. Not because I'm worried, I'm just interested in how long I can hide it. One of my friends made it to almost 20 weeks! 

Our due date has fluctuated between 12/22 and 12/27. I realize it's just a guess so we are telling everyone baby should be here around Christmas.

  • Great update!  Don't worry about the bump - so long as the scans are fine everything is peachy.  :) 

    I definitely have more belly than I used to, but it's not really bump, more blump since it's almost unnoticeable in the morning and really big by the time I go to bed.
