Hello! I'm not new to the Bump, but new to the pregnancy thread. Congratulations to all the upcoming moms! I spent a lot of time on the infertility thread last year as my husband and I went through a failed IVF cycle. We gave up completely and conceived in Mexico in early June. We were in Quintano Roo (Cancun and Playa Del Carmen) for one week. At the time, Quintana Roo had 3 confirmed cases of Zika. I had one mosquito bite while traveling, hubby had zero. My perinatoligist takes this seriously and has recommended we both are tested for Zika. We were tested that same day. The state of Quintana Roo has over 1.6 million people and again, at the time, 3 cases of Zika reported. They now have 13 cases. I'm really worried about the results that are pending and wondering if anyone else conceived in a Zika area or has anyone else had testing done! Thanks ladies and again, congrats!
If a dr reccomended you get tested I think you should do it. Often it is just precautionary but better to be safe than sorry. Unfortunately even if someone else conceived in an active Zika area it has zero impact on your pregnancy so I caution you Not look for others experiences because it may give you a false peace and then have something turn out to be wrong or make you very anxious and everything is okay
@Backbypopulardemand, thanks for your response. If you had thoroughly read my response you would have read that I have had the blood test (the day it was recommended). I'm not "looking for peace", just finding women with similar situations and stories to connect with. I also wanted to introduce myself since my prior experience was on the infertility board.
Well then if you feel like being rude and don't have a desire to join a bmb and my answer was unsatisfactory to you then use the search function. To find others experiences
@backbypopulardemand, just helping you with comprehension my dear. You lurk to be nasty to every woman you can find on here. Grow up and get a life! Now blocking you! Xo
@Backbypopulardemand is one of the most supportive people on this site. You don't even know her, she has never been nasty or unkind. She gave you a very helpful answer-it's best not to ask for other's experiences because as she said, it might lull you into a false sense of security, or it could get you worried over nothing. If that isn't what you were looking for, maybe find somewhere else to post this question. We aren't all unicorn farts and rainbows over here. I truly hope you test negative for Zika and that your pregnancy is healthy and uneventful, but please talk to your doctor if you have any concerns.
Nasty?! I'm the only one who even answered your post... With a genuine answer because the last you need is a nasty surprise or unnecessary fear.
Oh and @StephanieWalstrom a word of advice change your screen name because you are easy to look up with your first and last name and creeps do use these sites so i suggest for your own sake you change it

If you can help her with her comprehension, can I help you with your grammar?
