August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

Hey Everyone,
Took me awhile to catch up of what's going on. It seems like everyone is experiencing similar symptoms. I got hit with naseau this morning, I get hungry and eat and them I feel like poo. I am also exhausted....all the time. I go for my first appointment on the 10th and then again on the 19th.
My family thinks I am going to have twins (I was on clomid and twins are in my family) but the Chinese calendar predicted a boy. I am good with whatever.

My husband keeps joking that I'm carrying twins. Probably because I didn't get morning sickness with my son until I was 6-7 weeks. This time I've had it even before I got my BFP. I'm not ready to have 3 children lol.

The Chinese predictor worked for us last time. I would love it if it's true again then we would have one of each :) I just want him/her to be healthy.
 
This thread moves way too fast to keep up! I'm trying :)

For the Brazilian Gender Chart, it says I'm having a boy. The Chinese one says girl. Well... we know one of them will be right! :p


Is anyone having vivid dreams yet? I had a horrible one last night where I started bleeding heavily (I must have been more scared than I thought yesterday). It felt so real that when I woke up I was really upset before I realised it hadn't actually happened!

So getting to know you guys a bit better, what does everyone do for a living? I've already mentioned a million times probably, but I'm a Year 3 teacher (7/8-year-olds).

So sorry you had a dream like that! That's my worst nightmare right now :-/ I tend to have strange dreams normally... so nothing out of the ordinary for me yet. :p

That's awesome you're a teacher... me too! I'm substitute teaching right now and personally I'm loving it. I taught kindergarten in September and October, but ended up resigning. I wish it hadn't came to that but it was for the best. I don't want to complain, but the gist of it was that I had no support and my boss was a bit of a bully. I had a student who would literally run around the room throwing materials, ripping things off the walls, spraying water all over the walls, floor, and ceiling (yes, ceiling), would shout over me while I tried to teach, hit other kids, etc. Tried everything I knew, nothing worked. Sent him to the office a few times with a note explaining why, but he just got told, "You need to listen to your teacher." and was sent back within minutes with no consequences. I finally was at the end of my rope because I didn't know what else to do with him and it was really impacting the learning of my other kids. I talked with the counselor and principal about the situation, and my principal came in to observe him. She word for word told me that I needed to "put on your big girl panties and deal with it, and stop stressing out your colleagues and me." Btw, I was a first year teacher. *Rant over* Anyway... after that experience I'm loving substitute teaching :p
 
Chinese gender predictor says boy, Brazilian says girl for me!
 
Just wondering, how many days after your missed period did you guys get a 2-3 weeks on the clear blue test?

I got a question! Since I got a faint positive a week before my period is due, is there a possiblity that I could be carrying twins???
 
It really depends on your lp mel. Some women have longer lps, so getting a pos a week before their missed period could be 9dpo or so. I dont think theres reallly a way to determine twins until an u/s. Ive seen women with one baby get super early bfps and women with twins get late bfps. Its just really random and impossible to know. Theres aalways a possibility though :)

I got 2-3 on cb digi at 4w3d I believe. Got a 1-2 at both 11dpo and 14dpo, then waited until 17dpo and got the 2-3
 
Urgh I've tried posting this damn photo 5 times now! Can you see it?

I've just taken my last test. Top to bottom: 12, 13, 14 and 17dpo. What do you think?

Evening ladies,

Just catching up on all I've missed. :coffee: Congrats to ladies who've already had positive appointments. I've been trying to remind my husband to call the GP for me at 9am the last few days to book me an appointment, but he keeps forgetting. It's silly system at my GP, you have to call in the morning to get an appointment that day or the next day and as I teach, I can't call at 9am. That's what time I have to collect my class.

I got my 2-3 weeks on a digital this evening :) I'm still beaming, as I was worried yesterday after my cramping got bad (in hindsight, I now know that was gas :haha: so nothing to worry about!). I can't wait to see a 3+ hopefully a week from now and then feel a little more relaxed that everything is hopefully going okay.

Omg!!! I had the very same dream!!!! I had to check the bedding for blood when I woke :( I was so upset!! I am totally not sleeping well at the minute! Worrying more than I thought xxx
 
The predictor sys boy for me!

I had my first GP appointment, she took urine and bloods and is referring met my local hosptial. She reckons as it was Clomid and the clinic is in a different Trust they'll want to do an early scan too!

My 1-2 was at 11dpo and my 2-3 was at 18dpo. I think that's me done testing but I ordered more ICs last week so I can't make any promises.
 
Yay lovecakes! :) How soon do you think you'll get your scan? I'm hoping to get mine between 6 and 8 weeks. My Dr is pretty booked right now but wants to get me in early since I have had a m/c before. Hoping to get it before Christmas! :)

Now i'm no expert, but i think you might be pregnant :haha: Beautiful progression hun xx
 
Lol LittleMinx! Great progression Kirin!

I got my 2-3 on a CBD the day after my missed period which I think was 16 dpo.

The Chinese gender things says girl for me but I think it's a boy :D

I got 1-2 on 14dpo and 2-3 today at 21dpo. I hadn't tested in between as didn't want to scare myself (and it's too costly anyhow!)

I have 1 left to test next Wednesday when hopefully it'll be 3+ and I'll feel as reassured as I can until my scan.


I had my first pregnancy-related dream last night. Had a dream that I was using a speculum on myself and was looking in at my womb (not physically possible for me to do that, but there you go) and I couldn't see an embryo, so I was scraping around in there looking for it and still couldn't find it. Then I stopped and realised that I wouldn't have been able to see it anyway and had probably now just ruined my pregnancy by doing that. Horrible dream!

I'm predicted a boy with the Chinese predictor thing. It's a bit different for me though, as I wasn't sure if I should be putting the age of our egg donor or the age of myself ... I went for the egg donor, as it's her egg. If I put my age I get predicted a girl :lol:
 
Kirin - Lovely progression! So clear!

Emma - I got my 1-2 at 11dpo and my 2-3 at 15dpo (day after missed period).

Both Chinese Gender chart and Brazilian method say girl for me. I'm 50% sure they're correct. Seriously though, I am predicting boy, so I'm going against the grain on this one.

PnkPolkaDots - I'm really sorry you got treated that way in your first term teaching. I can't believe the senior leadership did nothing to intervene with a child that was so badly behaved. I have taught some insanely badly behaved children before - children that have punched me in the face, attacked others in horrible ways I wouldn't want to go into on this board and generally made my life a mysery for the year that I taught them. The leadership at that school sometimes did the right thing and excluded him externally for the serious things and internally for the less serious things. However, they would also sometimes just send him straight back up. I nearly went to my union once when I was punched in the face and he was back in my room half an hour later. That was in my third year teaching, I think I would have given up altogether if it had been in my first!! I'm at a much nicer school now and love it there. I hope you find another school you love if you ever want to have your own class again.

I think I have everything updated to the front.

Once you girls find out your first scan dates, let me know and I will add them.

If you are having intuition of gender, let me know that too as I think we're gonna test the theory out and see how many of us are right!

If your name is on the front page, I either accidentally missed your post (a lot to keep track of) or didn't see a due date for you. Let me know! :)

My first scan going to be on Friday, December 13. For whatever reason I think I'm having a boy.
