Sneak peek snap test wrong results?

Has anyone done the sneak peek snap test and got a boy result but really having a girl? I did mine at 6w6d and got a boy result but not sure if it was contaminated as I had my husband and son in the house and didn’t really disinfect the area. Thanks in advance!

I haven't heard of it happening, I know that just in general there's a chance of it being wrong tho
From what I know you'd either have to do it again or just wait till your nipt test or ultrasound

Sometimes it can be
Contaminated. You have to be completely away from boys and clean the area you will be testing in. I think it’s also said to wash your hands for 30seconds as Dna can get underneath fingernails as well.

Mine was correct both times, both with a boy and I thought the same thing since we have 8 male cats, my husband and my brother live with me lol but they were correct we were pregnant with a boy both times. If you're concerned about it you can find a clinic that will do it for you and there's only women who work there in a very sterile environment.

They're apparently very easy to get contaminated with male DNA but they also say the snap one if I'm remembering correctly and that is the one on the arm is harder to get contaminated than the one you poke your finger.

Leaking waters?

I’m 35 weeks today wooo but… every morning for the past two weeks I’ve woken up with a palm sized water mark in my pants! - no smell, no pain and unaware of it happening…

I thought it might be leaking waters so got it checked out but the midwife said it was might be urine/watery discharge! - but it’s still happening.. thoughts? 💭🫶🏻

Pelvic girdle pain and birth

I have been experiencing awful pain. More so recently. I'm now using crutches to get around but it's more painful at night and when I lay down or sit down. I'm worried about birthing. I've got other issues and baby boy is estimating 8pounds at 36 weeks. I've been booked in for an induction 9 days prior to my due date. Surely he's going to be even bigger and I just don't feel like I've had any birth discussions in detail really. Ive only seen midwife twice and each time I've seen a consultant it's someone different. Has anyone else experienced awful pelvic pain and birthed a big baby?

Upcoming C-section.

So I’ve decided to go for an elective C-section, I know it’s the right choice after months of deliberating but I’m soooooo nervous.

I’ve had 2 very complicated births. I kinda know what to expect from the recovery as I had an emergency section with my first but I just feel nervous about being awake during it & what it feels like.. I’ve heard they strap your arms down and I’m scared of something going wrong.

I know every experience is different but if you’re happy to share what your elective was like for you (good and bad) id be very grateful. I feel really unprepared!

C-section infection

Anyone with c-section infection experience?
I’m 9 weeks pp and I’ve been battling an infection on the left hand side of the wound for 4 weeks. Now that I managed to get that side better, the other half suddenly started oozing.
I’ve been on 3 rounds of antibiotics, I’m pretty sure they are giving my baby reflux. What the hell I’m supposed to do??!! 😭
