@MrsMccarthy: I'm so excited to see you joining a due date thread!!! Congratulations again!!!!!
-
@MrsMccarthy: yay! So excited that you feel comfortable enough to join us over here! I'm so glad we're due date twins too!!
-
@jaguar: I know! I am so excited beyond words to share our journey.
@Adira: thank you! Your gold gave me luck!!!!!
@ninja: haha totally! So psyched! I went late with my son though so I am expecting that to happen again for me. I was losing my mind!
Temp is still up and tests are darker. Spotting is so light its almost non exsistant! Today we go for our first beta.
-
Sorry, double post!
How is everyone doing today? What does the baby center Chinese chart say for you? Mine says boy, though Im on the cusp.
-
@MrsMccarthy: @ninja: Welcome ladies!
Hope everyone is doing well. Still off and on nauseousness over here, and getting worse
First blood work was yesterday as well as the GD test, yuck. WE go on vacay on friday and will be gone a week, then once we come back I have my first appointment with a dating ultrasound, so excited!@MrsMccarthy: Chinese gender chart says girl, it was right with DD should be fun to see if its right again.
-
@MrsMccarthy: hooray! So glad we are due date month buddies!
-
@LAZB: me too! Hooray! Has your spotting stopped? Mine has slowed but not stopped completely.
-
@MrsMccarthy: yes, it stopped last Saturday, so I spotted for a total of 10 days or so. I hope yours stops soon too! It definitely makes me feel a little better now that it has stopped.
-
So hard to use Chinese calculators, since this was a frozen transfer.. does that mean I go off when the embies were fertilised, or when they were transferred.
My dating scan is on Monday and I am SO nervous/excited. I just want so badly to see a healthy blob.
-
@MrsMccarthy: I was a week late with my son too...so definitely expecting that again
Chinese chart says girl, but it said that last time too, so I'm not putting too much stock in that. @pinkb: thanks! Hope your nausea gets better for your vacation!
-
Chinese Gender Chart says girl for me!
-
@MrsMccarthy: *stalking* eeeeeee!!!! Look at that dark frer!!!! So excited for you!
-
@LAZB: I am so so so happy that it stopped!!!
@jaguar: OMG! Come on Monday!!! can't wait to see that little bean. Do you find out the sex early with IVF? You can always do the baking soda test or the red cabbage test for fun! heheh
@ninja: Which chart did you use? the one on Babycenter and this one http://www.chinesefortunecalendar.com/PredictSex.htm calculate your chinese age so I trust them more than most. not that they aren't really 50/50 anyway hahaha
@simplyfelicity: how fun!!! can't wait for us all to begin finding out. I should find out early because I am older and can get MaterniT21
@yellowbird:
thanks love!!! i got my first of 2 betas today. I should have numbers by friday but my tests getting darker is VERY reassuring indeed.
-
@mrsmccarthy: Um, what's this baking soda or cabbage test you speak of?
-
@MrsMccarthy: How soon can you find out the gender?
-
@BeachMama:
@simplyfelicity: 10-12weeks or therein
-
@MrsMccarthy: that's the one I used...I can't be trusted to calculate my own Chinese age!
-
@ninja: Hahahaha nice! did you double check it and see if it was wrong for your son?
-
@MrsMccarthy: totally double checked and it said my son would be a girl too! I'm good either way, but just damn curious to find out. I so could not be team green!
-
@ninja: me too! I want to know NOW!
-
Darker wondfo! Spotting stopped and temp shot up again! Feeling so hopeful! I'm really pregnant!!!
-
@MrsMccarthy:
!!!
-
@MrsMccarthy: Yay!!!!!!

Okay, I've been nervous about joining. I didn't want to jinx it. But, I loved having the HB support in TTC, and I'm already enjoying reading this board, so here goes! So excited to finally join an "Expecting" board!
Location: Vancouver, Canada
EDD: March 12, 2015
How far along: 5 weeks tomorrow!
First child? Yep! (At 40-yrs-old!)
First doctor appointment: I went to Naturopath yesterday because I needed progesterone supplements. I'm going to see GP tomorrow to get blood tests ordered to check that my hcg hormone is increasing and it's all progressing well. It all feels a little unreal still!
Any symptoms so far? YES! Lots of cramping last week and on weekend. Super sore boobs, starting to swell. Had a shooting pain into my nipple on the weekend, which was a big clue for me, esp as I was already "late". I've also had lots of nausea (blech). My Naturopath said it was early for nausea, but, well, it's there just the same.... (Maybe it's twins?!?! Jk jk). Also enjoying a fair amount of fatigue. Luckily I'm on summer break, so afternoon naps are completely do-able. Oh yah oh yah!
Who have you told? My DH, and my best friend. On the first day of BFP, I wanted to TELL THE WORLD. On the second day, I started freaking out, and didn't want to say anything to anyone. Sounds like anxiety is pretty common, though.
I can't wait to tell my parents. They love being grandparents, but my sis lives in Australia with her 3 cuties, so mom and dad are going to be over the moon to have grand kids near home (finally!) Hoping to tell them soon. It will def feel more real once Mom knows!
I'm telling a bunch of gf's this weekend. Sadly, there would be NO hiding the fact that I'm not drinking wine with them. They'd know immediately, so I may as well own up! Also, I've been pretty open about all my TTC adventures, so I feel I owe it to my friends that had to listen to all the struggles. They deserve the celebration, too! Lol!
** Sorry for the novel. I don't post often, but when I do, it goes on and on... Geesh.

And for fun... Our babies will be Pisces.

@LIL BEAN: YAY!!! You're here! Congrats again.
-
@LIL BEAN: yay! I'm so glad you joined! We can be the golden girls of March! Soooo rxcited for you and o be pregnant together. Some babies on here will be Aries as well, especially if some of us go late.
-
@MrsMccarthy: @simplyfelicity: Thanks, girls! Happy to be with you two!
Yes- it's true. March 20?21?22? Is the Pisces/Aries cusp, right? I guess that's only a week late for me. Totally possible! And totally important.

Just got my first beta results and they are right where the ought to be for 4 weeks at 207. Now we just have to see that they have doubled after tomorrow's blood draw. Feeling encouraged! Here's a chart if any of you wonder what I'm talking bout Willis!
-
@MrsMccarthy: Fingers crossed for your betas tomorrow!!!
-
@MrsMccarthy: You can breathe now! Looking good. xxx
-
@lilbean: congrats and welcome! @mrsmccarthy: yay!
I have to wait til the 29th for my first appointment. Seems so.far.away!
-
@MrsMccarthy: yay for a good beta! sounds like things are going well and I'm so happy for you!
I wish right now I had *some* kind of confirmation that everything is going fine...but really no reason for me to get betas without cramping or spotting.
@BeachMama: My appointment isn't until the 29th as well. Look forward to comparing notes!
-
@BeachMama: thank you! That pic of your daughter in the Big Sister top is adorable!
@sapphire: I know what you mean abt not knowing if everything is going ok. I'm glad my naturopath suggested the series of hcg blood tests, but that doesn't mean my GP will go for it. If he doesn't, I have to pay out of pocket. And then I have to decide if it's "worth" knowing? No thx. Just tell me everything you can, please!
Finally, the gender predictor says it's a boy! And I've felt that way since I got the positive. Weird, because I REALLY have no preference...

Hi! I POAS this morning, and
! Happy to be joining the March 2015 board!Location: Tennessee
EDD: March 17!
How far along: 4 weeks
First child? I have a spunky 23 month old daughter.
First doctor appointment: going to schedule it for 8 weeks
Any symptoms so far? Nope! Just excitement
Who have you told? My husband, a close friend also pregnant, and HB.
I had a miscarriage in March, and we had already told a lot of people... don't want to have to un-tell again... but I already feel that this pregnancy is different, I feel so much more optimistic.
-
@LulaBee: yay! Congrats on your BFP!
-
@LulaBee: Congratulations and welcome! I am very sorry to hear about your loss in March. I had a very similar situation in April and I feel so much more positive this time around.

Today, I am 6 weeks (only 34 more to go!
) I know I have shared pregnology.com with you guys before, but here is what a baby looks like at 6 weeks in utero.
Chinese chart says girl, but it said that last time too, so I'm not putting too much stock in that. 
! Happy to be joining the March 2015 board!
