Amnio Anxiety
Hi guys, I posted a little while ago as my bubba tested high risk for Trisomy 18. My husband and I paid a small fortune ($1250) to have a blood test called Verifi, rather than opting for an amnio, as the blood test posed no risk to our baby. So I had the test done on May 13th and were told the results would be 10ish days.,…

Trisomy 18
Hi everyone, I have just had the results of my first trimester screening and it's come back with high risk for Trisomy 18 (1:53). I have opted to have the new blood test rather than the amnio, as we don't want to rask miscarrying what could be a perfectly healthy bubba, which Ihad this morning, but now we have a long 2…

Pregnancy Taboo
Hi guys, Just wondering what everyone's views are on drinking alcohol and caffeine during pregnancy? I am currently 8 weeks pregnant and haven't touched either since I found out I was expecting, but I must say it's not been easy. I plan to continue on this road as I'm sure it will get easier, but was just curious to get…

Pregnant and Losing Weight
HI Everyone! My name is Anna and I'm new to this group. I have just found out I am about 7 weeks pregnant and am very excited as it's our first bubba. Since I found out I'm pregnant a few weeks ago, I have dropped 5kg, and have been told by my OB that it's safe for me to continue losing throughout the whole pregnancy, as…

Restarting Metabolism
Hi everyone, I am having a lot of trouble losing weight, despite being quite careful with calories and recently starting to exercise. I realise it won't happen overnight, but I am starting to wonder if my metabolism is the problem. When I was 17 I had an ED, managed to get better by the age of 20, but then returned to…

Cramps vs Heavy
Hi everyone! OK so I used to get these agonising cramps before my period, but the upside was that my actual period would be so light and short. Since I went off the pill, I am having the opposite. I don't get any kind of cramps anymore, but my flow is out of control, like dont-even-want-to-leave-the-house kind of heavy. I…

In-laws from Hell
I can't stand my in-laws. There, i said it. My father-in-law is an ex-airforce pilot who is arrogant, rude and has zero interest in forging any kind of bond with his son (my husband). In his own words, "I make no apologies for who I am, love it, or f-off". He is currently having a mid-late-life-crisis and is buying every…

Salmon Cravings
Salmon steaks are by far my favorite food but I tend to cook it the same way every single time! I wrap it in alfoil with fresh garlic and honey, season and bake until cooked. It's delicious, but I need some variety! If you have a yummy low-calorie salmon recipe please share! :drinker:

Chronic Back Pain
hi guys, I have had chronic back pain for about 4-5 years now. Most of the time it's manageable, but when it does flare up it's agony. I just had a CTscan done and the results didn't show much except for a few "bulging discs". :sick: I want to get pregnant soon, but am so scared, as becoming pregnant while already having…

Weakness for Wine
Anyone else out there struggling to give up the booze? I am well aware that wine is full of empty calories, yet I can't seem to cut back significantly! It's my one vice and I love nothing more than coming home from a crap day at work and having a few glasses to wind down. I always swear I will stop drinking completely…
