says boy for me. Which is actually what im hoping. But tempted to stay team yellow as i have one of each already.

 

[bridgetboo62]

oh no!
we really want a boy
so hopefully us DTD only close to ovulation (im assuming since we DTD a few days after predicted ovulation based on cycle length) and if i did ovulate on the 14th or 15th then that would mean i only had a 11 or 12 day luteal phase which is short
means that it will be boy based on the theory that male sperm at faster swimmers but die quicker and female sperm are slower swimmers but live longer and if you DTD as close to ovulation as possible its more likely to be boy and if you DTD a day or two before ovulation then its more likely to be girl

you mean you may keep it a surprise till birth?
my sister is doing that she is going all natural and having her baby at home and not getting any ultrasounds or anything
i could never do that even if i already have one of each gender

Hello, i went to my doc today who is heavily pregnant!
she was not overly helpful as.everything i asked she did t really know an answer! But was really helpful in looking things up.
asked about a different midwife. But there is only the one that covers my area! So asked if she can be available on a different day. Atm she is only avaible Tuesdays which is the one day of the week i work away!
anyway one thing she mentioned is that a must be very fertile. As first pregnancy was a condom mishap, second was also unplanned and this was my second month trying after mc. But that doesn't really mean much i guess, as last two weren't successful.
anyway sorry for rambling on! New symptom headaches! Boo! And ive just wanted to eat like a horse today.

 

[RaspberryK]

How can a midwife only be available one day a week? That's ridiculous!
3rd time lucky sl xx

 

[bridgetboo62]

maybe she is only available that one because she is a pregnant?
or has another job?
or has a lot of other patients?

Thanks girls, I was a bit worried why the lines were so different. I made my DH run up and grab a clearblue, it came back pregnant 2-3, which is right on track.

I have always wanted a little girl, so with that being said I am 100% positive that I will have a boy. DH wants a boy. We will find out, he said he can't wait until birth. I don't need to find out, I already know.

Not as tired as I was the last week or so, boobs still hurt (probably more from me poking them) and heartburn/bloating too. I have IBS and am on a special, very limited diet...food cravings are going to be terrible for me.

Eme-so happy to hear your friend and baby are fine.

I had the worst night last night. I woke up around 1:30 to go pee then my son woke up crying at 2am. He was inconsolable. He cried for 2 hours!! At about 3 am, I noticed I was sweating and my stomach started turning. I realized uh oh, diarrhea! I ran into my room gave my son to DH and went. My son continued to cry for almost another hour when he finally said "nom nom" I asked, "are you hungry"? He ate an entire banana then knocked out. Why couldn't he had told me at 2 am?! LOL (He's only 18 months) I finally returned to bed at 4:15 am, my husbands alarm went off at 5 am! I had to get up at 5:30 to get ready for work. Blah

Went into the shower and what happens, I have to go again! Return to the shower and have to go again! UGH! Head off to work feeling so horrible and exhausted. Get to work and have to go AGAIN! I must have gone at least 5 times more. Finally, let my boss know I can't work the afternoon since I work on patients. (I'm a dental hygienist) So came home. It must be a stomach virus because my son was sick with vomitting all Sunday night but I thought it was food poisoning. My husband had the runs all day Tuesday and Wednesday. So, I guess it's just my turn. Boo

Sorry for the long ramble. Had to get it off my chest. Now, waiting to hear back from my doctors office for my second hcg levels.

 

[swanxxsong]

Hi ladies! Just found out I am pregnant, cautiously so for the time being.

My EDD is February 12th. This is my 4th pregnancy -- I have a two year old daughter and had two losses.

I am 28 and over the moon! I am anxious and nervous but also enthralled! 😊

Can't wait to get to know all of you!

 

[babyfeva]

Welcome and congrats swansong!

 

[eme]

Congrats Swansong and welcome!!! I think so far you're the closest to Valentine's Day ;-)

 

[bridgetboo62]

i had diarrhea too the other day
i thought you were suppose to be constipated in pregnancy/early pregnancy
because you digestive system slows down not speeds up

also i have always had super blonde hair on my legs and never have had to shave
and now my hair is turning darker and thicker
i hear that is a sign of a boy
and my acne is clearing up i also hear that is a sign its a boy
i havent had any morning sickness or nausea yet and i hear that is a sign of a boy but that may be because i am only about 5 weeks and not 6 weeks and it hasnt started yet

 

[bridgetboo62]

ugh i feel so dizzy and weak and tired today

stressing about when to tell my parents

we will be telling them it was surprise and we got pregnant on birth control
because they wouldnt understand otherwise because im so young and me and OH havent been together that long
not to mention we dont have our place yet (living with my mom which is fine she doesnt mind)
but will soon we just have to pay off some debt first
and pay off our car and imac
we really werent expecting for it to happen this soon

not sure if i should tell them after my first scan on the 19th
not sure if i will get a scan around 12 or 13 weeks and should tell them then
or if i should wait until im in the second trimester so miscarriage isnt as big of a possibility
or if i should wait to tell them after we know the sex but wont i be showing before then?
i dont want my mom to freak out and say you cant have the baby while living with her
we really want to be moved out by the time baby comes but im worried we wont get everything paid off in time

 

[RaspberryK]

Yay for more recruits, I'm glad people are finding the group, please feel free to spread the word and don't forget to add our banner.

Anyone else expecting to go overdue? I imagine I'll still be fat and round on valentines xx

 

[confuzion]

Welcome swan!

I keep gagging when I brush my teeth ugh. The toothpaste! Baby must not like it.

And Chinese says boy for both LMP and conception for me interestingly enough. Hope it's right but it's not a strong preference so I would be over the moon with a girl too.

I expect I might be overdue because it's my first pregnancy. Don't think miscarriages count eh?

 

[RaspberryK]

My friend was a day early with her first, I think it depends on the person.
I knew I'd be overdue, it runs in our families, I'm fully expecting to go over again.
With ds my dates and early scan dates suggested 31st August, 12 week scan said 2nd September, he arrived on 11th September.
Xx

 

[confuzion]

I hope this pregnancy will go to term and that I'll find out!

 

[RaspberryK]

Bridget, definitely I got really hairy with ds and linea niagra too.
I'd honestly be really positive to your parents about being pregnant. Xx

 

[eme]

I hope this pregnancy will go to term and that I'll find out!

Amen to that!!! After the mc's I've had I don't care if it's a boy or a girl, I just (sincerely) want a healthy baby!!!
