Expectations for TFMR at 13ish weeks - out of state travel required.
Hi everyone.
I will be TFMR (T21) this week. I’m heartbroken, but I’ve accepted our awful reality.
My question is more about what I can expect from this procedure. I will have to travel out of state thanks to our state’s lovely laws (about 5 hours away). I will be 13 weeks exactly based on LMP but my baby has been measuring anywhere from 3-5 days ahead this pregnancy.
We will be leaving the day before since I have to be at the clinic early in the morning. We don’t have childcare so we will have to bring our almost 12 month old with us. My husband can’t come in past the clinic’s lobby anyway so he’ll basically just be dropping me off then heading back to the hotel with our baby all while I go through a procedure that I never imagined having to do.
We reserved a room 2 nights but are planning on driving back home that same evening - is this realistic? I truly have no clue what to expect. I’d really appreciate if y’all are willing to share some firsthand experience/advice. Thank you!
