April Showers 2015. 5 pink and 2 blue rainbows so far!

[nessaw]

Think it's because I put ov date and lmp date in. I ov cd12 and have a 26 day cycle. Lmp was 30th june.

 

[nessaw]

Just checked on due date calculator. With lmp and 26 day cycle-4th April not the 3rd! With 28 day cycle-6th. So I was wrong with the 3rd. Think the 4th is my cousin's birthday.

 

[nessaw]

Looked on another and it says 3rd again. V confused!

Got gp appt for wed and scan booked for 20th. Fx

Hello ladies, hope its ok if I join your April group. My edd is April 5th at least for now lol. I have short cycles so im sure once a scan is done they will adjust the date.
Im very nervous and scared and everything in between. Nessaw I see your here too, I remember chating with you earlier about my loss, I lost my twins to TTTS also.

I find myself getting worked up with every pinch or cramp that I feel, I know some mild cramping is100% normal but it really makes me nervous. But I am doing my best to stay calm and hopeful.

Hi tennessee. Great to see you here and welcome. Congrats on your bfp. It's really hard with the twinges isn't it. I remember this stage last time and working out it was gas! So I keep telling myself that. I seem to have a bit of mild nausea on and off the last couple of days and I. Just. Can't. Stop. Eating. !!!!! Trying to make it fruit but my god I'm hungry! Think it's also cos am on school hols so not as busy. Have you seen the doctor/consultant?

 

[Tennessee]

I havent gone in to see Dr yet, I wanted to make it a few days past when AF was due before I went in. I plan to call today to get blood test done. But I think I am on pregnancy test 30 by now and so far all bfps. On sunday I got the 2-3 week change on digital which made me so happy to see, I actually stood in the bathroom and did a happy dance for progression. I was worried at first because the fitst 4 stayed at the 1-2 week, but like I said earlier I have short cycles so it was just to early for the change to 2-3 weeks.

I am also eating like crazy, maybe a little to much at times lol. But the only thing that really tastes good is green olives which is off for me. I also only have on and off nausea nothing to bad mainly feeling it in the evening, probably more from eating everything I see then actual morning sickness.

Congratulations to you also

I did the same-waited til after this weekend when af due. Went to docs yesterday.

Welcome Tennessee! So sorry for your losses lovely that you and nessaw already knew each other and shared a similar loss. I went to the dr today and got the 'don't drink or smoke or eat too much tuna' lecture. Booked on with mw 3 weeks tomorrow a week after my scan. I'm completely paranoid when I'm feeling ok, had lots more energy the last couple if days. Would rather feel horrific! I'm 5 weeks today and got 1-2s on the digi the last 2 days, but I didn't get my first 2-3 til I was 4+1. I've got 2 more digis so praying for my 3+ tomorrow or Friday.
Nessau I'm really hungry too the months we were trying I was doing so well, totAlly off sugar and wheat etc and going to the gym 4 days a week. I've been to the gym a couple of times just to do power walking. The dr said not to do weights or anything that puts pressure on my stomach. Might try swimming but it's so boring!! And today I've just bought crisps and cake, and I ate half a box of chocolate cornflake bites whilst dd had her nap this afternoon. Oops!!
Tennessee I've put you on the list on the first page xx

Hey Ladies! May I join?? Sorry for all your losses!

I lost my first baby @7+3 just over 2 years ago now. I've had my rainbow baby since, she's almost 11 months old. Still, I'm very nervous! I O'ed on July 12th and have super long cycles (3 week follicular phase, my lmp was the 21st of June. I use my O date to calculate edd). Different sites give me a different edd, I'm going with April 5th! I'm tired, super hungry, and having weird vivid dreams. Other than that, I don't feel pregnant, let's hope that changes soon! xox

 

[nessaw]

Hi tasha. Sorry for ur loss and congrats on your rainbow and bfp. Glad I'm not the only one getting different due dates! Been to the gp this morning. He referred me to ante natal and also for a scan. A bit naughty but didn't tell him I already had one. If I get another one then that's good if they realise then never mind. He did the edd on lmp so the 6th. With the twins they measured exactly to the ov date tho. We'll see.
Munchkin-I've been swimming every day as it's the school hols. Plus 2 dog walks a day. Determined to have bmi below 30 for booking in appt. I keep worrying I don't have symptoms. It's hard for me to know what's normal as my 1st pg was a blighted ovum and the 2nd was twins.

 

[Munchkin30]

Hi Tasha sorry for your olds but congrats on your rainbow and your new pregnancy! I've added you to the list x

My due date should line up with ov date because for once I ov'd on cd14! I usually get moved forward a few few days at the 12 week scan and my birthday is 30th march so it would be nice to have a birthday due date, although I'm pretty happy with April fools day!!

 

[Tennessee]

Tasha, glad to see more people joining in on April babies. So far our due dates match up.

I have a dr appt tomorrow morning but I believe they will only due beta test to check levels to give idea if its 1 or 2 babies in there. Usually they won't do a scan till 12 weeks but they would do mine at 7 weeks. However I will be on vacation out of state. So I plan to cheat a little. Where I live they have a kind of walk in ultrasound place its called my first peekaboo. Its really cool. You pay a fee but you can go in between dr approved ones for peace of mind. So I have made an appt for that on the 15th of august. I should be 6+5 then, really hoping to hear a heartbeat so I can be more at ease on vacation.

 

[Tasha S.]

Nessaw: You already had a scan?? How did it go?? I get you on the conflicting due-dates from different sites! Only one day off, but still, you'd think there would be a general consensus! That's wonderful! Are you a school teacher?

Munchkin: Awww, that's so special that your little one will be born right around your birthday! A very precious gift!

Tennessee: YAY for the same due date! If I read correctly, we had the same O date: July 12th! That's so nice that you're able to get an ultra-sound like that! Let us know how your dr's appt goes tomorrow!

Does anyone feel any morning sickness yet?? Not yet for me!

Hello ladies,
I am so very sorry for your losses. My last Miscarriage was in January at 6 weeks.

Would it be alright if I joined you all? I just got first Bfp since at 11 dpo! I think my edd is April 12. Too nervous to make a ticker or call ob yet - will wait until missed period.

 

[Munchkin30]

Hey chippyslady! Welcome, I'll put you on the list. I get you on the not believing it til after missed AF! It sometimes feels a bit 'fake' til then. When's AF due?
I've got a scan booked at the hospital at 7 weeks then I'll probably have a private one at 8-10 weeks then a specialist 4d one at Birmingham fetal medicine centre at 12 and 20. If there are any concerns about blood flow over the heart at 12 weeks there'll be another one at 15-16. Oh and we'll have growth scans too because my dd was underweight. Xx

 

[Munchkin30]

Ooh and I got my 3+ this morning, exactly a week after my 2-4. Hopefully this means I can stop testing at last!!

 

[nessaw]

Welcome chippys. Sorry for your loss and congrats on the bfp. I hear you about waiting til af due date gone!
Tasha no am just booked in for one at what will hopefully be 8 wks. X
Munchkin fab on the 3+. Great news.
Tennessee hope the appt goes well. Let us know.

 

[Munchkin30]

I just had to tell the admin lady at work because my scan and mw appointment are on days I'm booked for work and I thought it was better than making lame excuses! Eek, all feeling a bit real!

 

[nessaw]

I had to tell my mum cos we were meant to be going wedding lingerie this shopping this week and hopefully I'll be needing a much bigger size. Going to pick up my wedding dress tomorrow which I ordered bigger in the hope I'd need it. Fx
