My first post of many I am sure!
I just got by BFP a few days ago. I still can't believe it.
Any other June Moms out there?

I just started my 2WW, but if I do get a positive this cycle, I'll be due in July.
Hopefully July will be a busy month for a lot of us ; )

Is there any way to move this to July 2012? It's in July 2011 right now.

Meee! I'm 5 weeks today and due around July 11-13... not sure how my midwife will date me at my first appointment.
I go for my first appointment the morning of Nov. 22. It cannot get here soon enough!

There are not many of us on here but I wanted to add my name to the July due date team! I just say I am due Julyish. We are expecting twins who always come early but technically my due date is July 24th. I seem to be the last one so far.
How is everything going for you all so far? I have my anatomy ultrasound on the 28th. Did any of you have your's already? How did it go?

@Ms.SK: Crazy! I'm due July 25th with twins! But we figure they'll probably come closer to the beginning of the month....hopefully not any sooner.
We had an anatomy scan at 16 weeks and the babies looked healthy and a few days big, but the photos didn't turn out the greatest for the doctors to analyze, so we get another at 20 weeks. We did learn that we're having a boy and a girl though! But be prepared for a REALLY long scan with twins - it was over 1.5 hours! Do you have any guesses on genders, or are you going to find out?

@MerryC I am so excited to find another twin Mom and we are due so close together. My midwives hope to get me through the July 4th weekend but I am hoping for the last week of June. Just my own craziness- both my parents work in hospitals so for years they always complain about all the interns who start at all hospitals July 1st. I don't want to be the one room they all run to looking for the twin mom trying to give birth naturally. You know?
It stinks you didn't get good pictures. The pictures from my 12 week scan are really terrible. I think the only reason I see anything is I know what I am looking at, my Mom just see's gray. As for the time on table - I was scared about it being over an hour. I don't know if I can hold "it" (you know) for that long. I can barely go a half hour during the day. At least it is at 8am so I will not have had to much to eat/drink.
We are going to find out the gender but only because it is twins. I think it would be to hard for me to get ready not knowing. I didn't want to find out, but my husband told me I would drive him crazy. For sure, we want a girl and for some reason I am convinced there is at least 1 boy in there. It is the fact that it is twins that I can't seem to figure it out. In the end, we have had a long road so we just want them to be healthy.
I wrote a book here, sorry about that.

@Ms.SK: So glad you're here too! I'm really hoping to give birth naturally too, but we'll see what options the babies give me Even though I have plenty of friends in med school, I never made the July 1st connection.....good to know, thanks!
Agreed, if we were only having one, it would be easier to wait and be surprised on the gender, but with two, it makes planning so much easier.
And for the anatomy scan: even though I was really uncomfortable holding my bladder in the waiting room, once I was horizontal on the table, it wasn't that bad. I think maybe because the tech was pressing higher on my belly most of the time (vs. my embryo transfer where the u/s pressed really low). They also had a bathroom right in the scanning room, so it was quick to pop in right after. Hopefully it's not too bad for you!

The scan wasn't bad at all. They didn't even tell me I needd a full bladder so I was fine. It took about an hour. So....it seems like I was right, there is a little boy in there "baby A" and there is a little girl "baby B". I can't believe we are having exactly what we wanted. It's going to be great.
One of my cousin's who was expecting twins had their babies on Friday so we have some built in playmates! One set of twins in my family has been born, now we wait on the girls (another cousin) to come next month and mine when they are good and ready!

@Ms.SK: Congrats on your boy and girl! And how exciting that you have so many sets of twins in the family

@tina: I knew it!
I'm 21w5d today... our anatomy scan was good, and our mext OB appointment is tomorrow to go over the ultrasound with our doctor. We're team green, so I'm am HOPING that the office staff doesn't screw up and let the gender slip.

@HabesBabe: just keep letting them know that you don't want to know... they usually ask and I think it's pretty common to not find out these days. We were team green for RJ! Now we're team... pink!! hehe.

@HabesBabe: glad you had a good scan! at our first one, the tech told us the genders, but didn't take any upskirt photos, or record the genders in any of the notes. so I don't think our OB even had any way of knowing the genders, but i'm sure everywhere is different.

Only gained 2 lbs from my last visit.... hollllllllaaaa. Although it's my birthday weekend this weekend, so I'm sure the weight gain will be more substantial next time.
I scheduled my glucose test for next week, too-- my office told me I didn't need to fast, but do you think that would help my chances of not failing?
Any other updates from you July '12 mommies?

Hey!! I had very little weight gain in the beginning but I shot up quite a bit in my last few appointments, so it's time to watch out!! Baby girl is kicking like crazy, all the time... even during our ultrasounds the techs would be like "whoa" as she kicked and bumped!
