NIPT test results

Can the NIPT results for gender be wrong? Maybe I feel like I’m doubting it because I got the gender I wanted sooo badly and it just seems surreal that we are having what we want and I did my test around 14 weeks and I know medically it’s accurate but I’m like is it wrong? The ultrasounds also seems to correspond with the gender but the dr on the report didn’t identify the gender because the scans were incomplete and now I have to wait to do follow up genitalia scans to get dr confirmation but im just like is the NIPT right 😭😭😭

Usually the NIPT is 99.9% accurate.

I was originally pregnant with triplets and 2 of them stopped developing by 9 weeks. So I waited did the NIPT around 14/15 weeks and my test was accurate.

They told me they would confirm at my next US because there was a chance the DNA from the other 2 babies could have affected the results.

At my 18 week US they confirmed the NIPT result was correct and reconfirmed at my 22 week. :)

Hope that helps 💙

Thank you!!! When I did the ultrasounds the tech asked if we wanted her to write the gender we said no at first because we were waiting but then decided to look at it was just the scan but it looks like a girl scan which is what the NIPT said. Going in next week to do the follow up scans to get dr confirmation

Maybe I’m just still processing that I’m having a girl lol cause everyone has said it’s a boy (only my husband and I know the gender)

Congratulations! My hubby and I thought we were having a girl and the NIPT said boy! And the US definitely confirmed it.

Good luck next week! Let me know how it goes :)

Thank you!! Will do! 🫶🏽

Accurate. Mine said boy and just did my anatomy scan - def a boy in there for me!

Accurate for me

@Erin same happened to me!

It would be highly unlikely not too be accurate

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
