I don’t know mine said that my baby was to have down syndrome, 7 months in I don’t think that that’s true 🤔

Like nearly 100% accurate. I’m assuming you mean for baby’s sex? The test will give you the estimations for chromosomal abnormalities (like a 1/10,000 chance or something). Of the risk was higher, they recommend an amniocentesis

My OB said they are around 98% accurate. Of course, with every test, there's always a chance that you might get a false positive or false negative but it's usually pretty rare. When I was debating whether or not to do it with my first, my OB said in her 30 years of practice she's never seen one be wrong, so that was good enough odds for me to say yes to getting it done.

I'm waiting on my results. ! I just had my blood drawn this monday.

My result was 100% accurate. I have a daughter with 0 chromosomal conditions

Use this post to scream into the void about any and all feelings you have.
Fun fact: there was a study done that shows many women feel worse at 9-10 months PP than 4-6!

I’m 35 weeks and just took my belly ring out and I feel like it looks so ugly 😭😭 my belly button is only halfway popped out so my belly button and the 2 holes from the piercing are visible and I feel like it looks like 3 belly buttons 🥲 not the mention the hyperpigmentation.
I really hate looking at my belly now, which makes me sad! Has anyone else delt with this? I feel uglier the further along I get

I’m currently 27 weeks pregnant and maybe 2-3 weeks ago I started getting random anxiety, kind of feels like that dreadful hangover anxiety but over absolutely nothing. Like there’s nothing I’m feeling anxious or sad about I just have this anxiety lingering and weird feeling of sadness. Anyone else had this??

I have a 5 year old girl and 10 month old boy. It took years to feel ready to have baby number 2 and now just 10 months on I feel desperate for another. We’d always planned to have 2 so I’m not sure where this feeling is coming from but it’s not going away! Has anyone had the same before? Did you go for number 3 or not in the end and any regrets either way? I’m in my mid thirties now so time is a consideration, and of course a third baby is in no way guaranteed, we feel so incredibly lucky to have our two babies, particularly as we battled some serious health issues in the process. Thanks for any thoughts 😊
