I started Dex at 4 weeks; I had planned to undergo CVS at 11 weeks to determine gender and carrier/affected status, but miscarried at 8 weeks.

For the month I took Dex, I felt no ill effects; no increase appetite, insomnia, or the other side effects I’d heard about.  In fact, I felt great... made me wonder about the things I’ve read about some carriers benefitting from treatment.
