Mine came out inconclusive because online it says you have to do it after 11 weeks and I ended up doing it a day after 10 weeks

i took mine at 11 weeks and got my results, but i read it has to do with fetal fraction percentage. mine was 20.9% but if you test with it lower than the minimum 4% the gender comes back inconclusive. you can always retake when ur even a week or 2 more in ur pregnancy and will prob get the results, but i know the patience of waiting on the test is the hardest part im sorry mama

I took mine at 9 weeks for my 4 year old and with this one as well and got the gender back. I’ve never heard of that before.

Csection day

Potentially having my 2nd little boy today and I am so nervous. Any tips for recovery with a toddler. My partner is having 3 weeks off but I am quite worried about the initial 6 weeks period.

Fear of giving birth

Hello everyone. This may sound extremely silly as I’m 35 weeks and it’s too late now but all of a sudden I have an overwhelming fear of giving birth , my mum laboured fast with me and my brother ( 3 hours from the first contraction to having him & 1 hour from the first contraction to having me )
I am utterly terrified I am 100% set on an epidural but if I labour fast like her by the time we get to hospital sit and wait to be assessed, wait for labour ward , wait for the doctor to be free ect ect . There mayyy boy be time . I’m utterly terrified it’s all I have been able to think about for days I go to sleep thinking about it I wake up thinking about it I’m even dreaming about it now .

I don’t really know what to do . I was offered an induction at 39 weeks for pgp and when I asked to talk to my midwife about it at my 34 week appointment( that another midwife made to discuss it ) she said no we will talk about it at ur next one wich is at 37 weeks 😩

Elective cesarean date?

Hi! I have a few medical issues and the general advice from practitioners is to opt for a caesarean.

I’m just wondering how many weeks in advance I might know my date? I have an obstetrician appointment eight weeks before my due date, is it likely I might get my date signed off then?

Due date is currently 25th of December.
Thank you!
