    2. FTM / STM+? If STM+, is this your first AMA? 6TM, 1st time AMA

  • 38/38
    First time AMA
    Feeling a little more anxious this go around, despite very similar symptoms. Hoping all shows well at the next US at 12 weeks and further testing is not required! 🤞🏻 
  • 1. Age Now / Age at Delivery: 38, most likely 39 (due date is 4 days after my birthday)

    2. FTM / STM+? If STM+, is this your first AMA? STM, last time I was also AMA

    3. How are you feeling about being AMA? Just fine. I love that I already know the gender thanks to NIPT. I switched providers and lost most of my extra ultrasounds (now only have an extra growth ultrasound at 32 weeks). 

  • 1. Age Now / Age at Delivery: 39/39
    2. FTM / STM+? If STM+, is this your first AMA? I was 35 with my last baby 
    3. How are you feeling about being AMA? Okay. The OB I saw a few weeks ago told me I have a 1/53 change of a chromosomal issue given my age so that wasn’t super reassuring. Eager to get our NIPT results. I’m Also still debating between OB and midwife. I need to decide soon!! 
  • @jenEP I think you may have previously said you have experience with midwives, but I just switched and after my first appointment couldn't be happier with my decision! Sending you good vibes for your NIPT results!
  • @curlyandpreggo did you switch to or from midwives? I used the OB clinic for my first and the midwives for the last 2 babies. The OB clinic does more monitoring (32 week US and weekly NSTs at the end). My midwife clinic doesn’t do any extra monitoring unless something comes up. 
  • @jenEP I switched to midwives. My OB did a TON of extra ultrasounds and the midwives do very little extra (32 week growth US is all they mentioned) - I’m a little sad I’ll miss out on some extra glimpses of the baby but still feel like my midwives are doing what’s needed.

    3rd time mom.  Have an 11 and a 10 year old! Big gap between!  Feels like I’m a first time mom again. 

    3. How are you feeling about being AMA? 
    Feeling great. Had my first visit with high risk Dr and just a few extra precautions but all my tests (NIPT) and scans have been healthy. Getting time away from work to go to extra appointments will be a pain but overall I’m feeling pretty good!
