FEBRUARY HEARTS Due in February 2015 , open group all welcome!

[bridgetboo62]

hey everyone!
originally i thought i was due january 31st
but now im thinking im due sometime in early february
because my LMP was the 26th of april and my cycles are usually 30/31 days long
i didnt temp or anything and was kind of NTNP this time and what do you know
so didnt track EWCM and have no idea when i ovulated but the only time we DTD was the 15th of april which would have been cycle day 20 (ovulation predictors predict me to ovulate on the 18th or 19th cycle day so must have ovulated on the 20th cycle day) so we must have DTD super close to ovulation which is good because we are hoping for a boy (shettles theory method) so based on that im probably only about 5 weeks along now instead of almost six weeks along but im not changing my ticker until my first prenatal appointment on the 19th
so i guess i would be due in early february though if i am only about 5 weeks along
so do you ladies mind if i join?

Okay, yeah I think I ovulated a bit late this month based on the fact that the test I took on the 31st was the most faintest squinter you've ever seen in your life! LoL So I think I ovulated on or near the 19th which would put me closer to 4+2. My line was darker this morning than the previous tests I've taken but not 'quite' as dark as the control line yet, close but not quite

Here is my Frer from this morning

readynwilling, my frer from this morning looks similar to yours!

Is it normal that the second line is really faint? I got worried something was wrong.

 

[savvysaver]

Congrats Laura! I think I saw you over in the short LP thread?

eme, glad your friend is okay!

MissEyre, congrats! This is my first too!

Eme - yeah your tests sound perfect for where you are

Savvy - nothing wrong with that! Test that dark is a great sign!!

Join away, I'll pop you at in as 31st jan and then once you get your scan ill change the date. I'm

 

[RaspberryK]

... Sure most of our dates will change. Xx

 

[bridgetboo62]

its normal for the control line to be faint when the test line is suuuuuper dark
because your HCG levels are so high that its actually pulling color from the control line into the test line
if you google it there is a forum that comes up and the first answer this girl actually called first response and thats what they told her

this is mine from the first when i thought i was 5+1 but must have been only 4+4 or so

 

[eme]

Welcome Bridget! And yes, it's always nice to be around people who are pretty much the same time along as yourself =) I'm pretty sure my date will change once I get a dating scan....I have NO CLUE when I ovulated haha!

 

[bridgetboo62]

the first test i took (in my siggie) i must have only been about 4 weeks exactly or 3+6
i took it on the 27th

yeah mine are still slightly the other way around....they're ~almost~ the same color but the test line on mine are still a bit lighter than the control....waiting and waiting for it to darken =)

 

[bridgetboo62]

ugh im so impatient i cant wait for that ultrasound

 

[eme]

amen sister! lol

 

[bridgetboo62]

i also dont really feel many symptoms yet
no morning sickness and i use to have super vivid dreams before i got pregnant and they stopped like as soon as we conceived
really weird
maybe just a bit more tired than usual
and peeing more frequently and with more urgency
and my nipples are sore but not my boobs
and cramps that last a few seconds and happen about 2-4 times a day
but thats about it
not really any cravings lately
no nausea
none of the classic symptoms

My chicken nugget craving is back lol First few weeks with dd all I wanted was chicken nuggets. Trying to think what I wanted for lunch today. I was starving but just didn't fancy anything then chicken nuggets popped in my head and I knew I had to have them. Made myself laugh because I had completely forgotten my obsession with them until that exact moment

 

[bridgetboo62]

haha i craved pizza once i think and BBQ chick once i think
but idk that could have just been because i hadnt had either in a loooooong time

 

[eme]

bhahaa chicken nuggets is my first crave to show up! I'm having some of the usual early symptoms, sore bb's and nips, VIVID dreams like none other, headaches, peeing, loose stools, mood swings, and sleep issues =)

No real nausea yet, except for last night I gagged on a bite of food and had to calm my throat down so that I wouldn't yak haha

 

[bridgetboo62]

so what does the chinese gender prediction say for everyone?
it says boy for me

what about the old wives tales?
i dont know if i believe those
half say boy half say girl for me

 

[maisie78]

Boy for me but it said that last time too and she is definitely a girl
