July Sparklers 2016!

I'm still here

Initial EDD was July 2016, but at the 20 week scan he was measuring 1 week ahead so now he is coming in June!! Anyone else have that happen

 

[Eltjuh]

My duedate is 21st of July, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's gonna be an August baby

Kinda like the idea of having the baby on the 4th of August as that's the date me and hubby met But that means he/she would be 2 weeks late, so I don't really like that (my first was 13 days late and my 2nd 8 days - being born late is a family tradition )

My EDD is 6 July so I guess there is a chance if he comes early he'll be a June baby!!

Ps I'm still here too

 

[Hollynesss]

I think we're all still here, just a lull in the conversation!

 

[WantsALittle1]

I'm here as well. I've been so sick lately and have been dipping in for updates, but haven't been responding because I've felt guilty that I am too tired to go back and read the full thread to find out what everyone has been up to Ugh! I'm so sorry ladies! I hope everyone is doing well x

dimmu, I deleted my FB over a year ago (best thing I ever did!) because I was just wasting too much time on it, and politics were driving me a bit nuts, so I am only here as well.

 

[RedButterfly]

I've always had my children early. I've been told I will never make it to my due date so I wouldn't be suprised if this baby comes in late June.

Hope you feel better WantsALittle1.

Glad to see people are still around, would have been a boring 4+ months chatting to myself and answering my own questions!

Wantsalittle1 I still have a Facebook account but I hardly use it. I mainly just use the messaging function to keep in touch with friends and family who live abroad. If it wasn't for that I'd probably delete my account as well. I never post any pictures or anything else any more.

My EDD is July 13th so there's a good chance my bubba will actually be born in July. DD was a few days early and my midwife said it's therefore likely that this baby will come early as well. We'll see..

 

[Cowgirl07]

My baby was measuring a week ahead but they don't change your due date at 20 weeks at my clinic. Because an ultrasound isn't perfect and later it's not as reliable. They only time my dr will change it is at the dating scan before 10 weeks. I didn't even have an embryo in me a week earlier.

 

[MelliPaige]

My baby came right on his due date, and I'm hoping this boy will be a little early too! Last time a drank red raspberry leaf tea and it really helped my labor, and my mom juiced me a whole pineapple and I drank it twice the week of my due date and I went from nothing at all to giving birth to my son in 4 days! Hoping to due the same this time except a little earlier

 

[Miss Bellum]

dimmu - I’m still here!

teamgreenbean - I’ve not had a date changed by that much My first was due in July and turned up 3 weeks early so ended up in June though! I take the dates with a pinch of salt now.

My due date is 21 July so hopefully unlikely I will have another June baby. I do wonder if I will go the other way this time and be really late and have a August baby.

Eltjuh - Aww would be sweet to have a baby on your anniversary but hope your little one isn’t that late!

wantsalittleone - sorry you’ve been feeling unwell, hope you are feeling better soon.

Hey all, I keep getting caught up with schoolwork, with it being my next to last semester and all *gulp*. Still trying to check in every now and then!

I think they moved my due date up the July 14th about a month ago because he was measuring ahead...I'm not sure. DD was a week late. I hope this boy will be too - wanting July 22 or 23rd, so he can be a Leo like me & his daddy Bonus, if it's the 23rd, DD's is the 23rd of December.

Had to come share the good news today! Where I was diagnosed as a cystic fibrosis carrier about a month ago & had to get OH tested, the lab didn't link his results to my chart or even the right doctor, haha. We FINALLY got the results and he is NOT a carrier, so hooray! Baby will be healthy! Baby boy who we still haven't picked a name for

Back to homework, aiyiyi. Hopefully we can take a mini vacation/camping trip soon.

Hope everyone is well!

 

[Hollynesss]

That's great news, Carlinator!!

Odd question, but does anybody else have a sore/numb crotch like you're out of shape and you just rode a bike for the first time of the season???

 

[MelliPaige]

I have lightning crotch. Not fun!

 

[dimmu]

I haven't got a sore crotch but get some stabby pains there sometimes. In general I seem to be getting lots of aches and little complaints already, don't remember getting this uncomfortable so early on with DD.

Is anyone else getting lots of questions from their older kids about the pregnancy? My DD is very interested which is lovely but I'm getting all the awkward questions like where was baby before she was in your tummy, how did she get there and how is she gonna get out etc. I have no problem explaining as such but trying to be a bit careful/not too graphic in case she spreads the newly acquired information to her friends at school.

 

[2b4us]

I have lightning crotch. Not fun!

I had to Google this. Yikes! I guess I should be thankful I don't have that. Some women have described it to the likeness of someone stabbing or kicking the crap out of their vajayjay 😳

 

[DandJ]

Yessss, my crotch feels sore like a bruise. Especially noticeable when I get out of bed or put on pants.

 

[frangi33]

When I first get up it hurts and I automatically hold myself thinking bits are gona fall out lol. Also getting a lot of kicks to the cervix which gets unpleasant after a while!

 

[MelliPaige]

On my last two ultrasounds this boys feet are kicking right into my bladder lol no wonder I get the random urge to pee..it goes from nothing to I CAN'T HOLD IT
