JUNE/JULY/AUGUST 2014 DUE DATE CLUB

momof3boyz11- Since u did not use any clomid maybe the twins will be identical! i took vitex too, but not the month i got preggers.

Wow i can't believe you guys have to wait so much later, 10 weeks and 12 is soo long NYC is so different!!

The sickness should get better by 12 weeks. I am very lucky because I never got sick with my son or this one. I guess some people get sick and other's don't. I can't imagine what that must feel like.

I keep on breaking out in pimples, and it def is not pretty! I have one large one on my forehead. I think high hcg level is a sign, I had that at 10dpo and my numbers were 3x what they should of been & I broke out only with this pregnancy my son my skin was perfect. I think you just never know what symptoms are!! I can't wait to find out what all your guys are having!!

It's really full on, like I just collapse on the couch because I can't continue whatever I'm doing. I'm also having mild nausea on and off, it comes in waves 3 or 4 times a day, no vomiting though, just that yucky felling. I told Dh I feel like I'm having a bad hangover all day. Anyone else feeling this exhausted?

---

Yep, fatigued. Tiredtiredtired. Of course, the added insomnia isn't helping much either... :sleeping:

I'm in, I think. Apart from I don't know currently if mine is baby, bloating or both. DH thinks I'm getting bigger and thinks it's baby, but I didn't think I'd start showing yet.

When the tech saw the sacs she said most likely they are not identical and thinks I ovulated more than once.
Funny thing is with the vitex I had to stop taking it in order to ovulate. Once I stopped it I ovulated 24 hr later.

Have the dr. again fri. They did an ultrasound on last Tuesday & we could see the sac & what he thought was baby. To tiny to tell for sure. My guess I was only exactly 5 weeks so I wasn't surprised when we didn't see heartbeat. Friday will be a repeat ultrasound & I'm really hoping to see this little one & that beautiful heartbeat. Been spotting on & off for over a week nothing heavy & no cramping but I will be super thankful to see the heartbeat & no that all is progressing.

Sorry you're feeling so ill. Have you tried small amounts of protein? I've heard it's helped a fair few people. myself included. Hoping your scan goes well x

So, a lot of people are asking so did you do anything special to get a girl and I told them I did this diet and if you are interested I have a person who can guide you with what to do etc. And, most people think I am nuts! LOL It's funny because either you are motivated and you are going to do whatever it takes or you just do not believe and you just won't go there. It's just really funny what people reactions are to this diet. I didn't tell any of my friends about the diet while I was doing it, but now that i am telling people I think they think i am weird for following the diet. lol hAVE U GUYS told your friends?

I dont even get to the point off ttc before I got my postive we ware going to start ttc on Nov 9 when i git af but behole af never show becouse I was all ready preganct. Hope this time it a boy.

I mentioned it to one friend and she kind of thought it was odd. Then she mentioned that she heard something about male sperm being slower etc. and I told her that wasn't true. If she decides to try for another kid I'll tell her more. Other people I mentioned it to thought it was strange too.

I agree.everyone ive mentioned it to thought it was weird.ob included.she had never heard of it.one of my friends had 3 boys & they wanted a girl so badly.I told him about the diet & timing (but told him timing was not so great).he & his wife did the diet & dtd 3 days b4 ovuation and BAM-A GIRL.people can think whatever they want.I'm a believer.if they don't like it TFB for them!

Oh yeah, this one is stealing my beauty alright, I'm getting fat really quick, I look pale and sickly. Not feeling too flash at all! Let's hope you're right! :)

I mentioned it to my closest friends. One of them is sold on the Shettles method and she said that I did it all wrong because I DTD the day before O, she said it'll be a boy! I tried to convince her it's been debunked but why waste my breath? Other than that my friends are fine with it. I mentioned it sometimes in my ds playgroup and some mums thought it was awesome and wanted directions and some less friendly ones rolled their eyes, but I didn't really go into lots of details, they can do their own homework if they're interested :)

Hi girls,
I'm more of a lurker then a poster on here, but could I be added to the list!
I'm due 16th June, we swayed for a girl, and we have been to kent to see a nub specialist and at 12 weeks, he gave a 80% we are having a girl!! I will put up my scan pic in the confirmed girl nub, ( when I figure out how to do it!) I'm so pleased we heard girl after 4 boys, it still hasn't sunk in we found out on tues 3rd dec,
I'm going to have another gender scan done to actually see a potty shot! But they won't do one over here till 16weeks,
Good luck to all of you xx

I haven't told anyone. Many of my friends also have 3 boys so if they are trying for a girl and ask me for any secret tricks then I will tell them some information. I am not being proactive about telling. It took me a very long time to figure everything out and happy it worked:)

I've been eating these Honey Graham Sticks that seem to help. And if I just keep eating a little through the day it helps.
Walking or gently walking on the elliptical is also helping as long as I've eaten first.

---

Yes the potato chips have been amazing. I had read about others eating them & wasn't sure they would work but figured it was worth a try. So far the vinegar chips & saltines are my BFF's! LOL!

Hoping to get back exercising soon just can't even motivate myself to try right now.

Welcome cottontales & congrats!

Just back from my ultrasound & we were able to see one beautiful tiny little baby & heartbeat! Feeling soooooo much better! Dr. thinks my spotting is just the placenta implanting & sees nothing to be concerned about.

By ultrasound my EDD is adjusted to 7/27 which still fits perfectly with our 1 attempt. Nausea has been helped a very little bit by an otc I picked up at our local health food store. Still there but I have been able to keep food down again so I'm happy with that.

Now begins the long wait to find out gender. I have told 2 friends a little about what I have done. One is hoping to TTC a girl down the road if she wants more info I will send her here than. Still feel really good with my sway which I have to add but I'm working on convincing myself this is a boy just in case. Even going to start working on boys names so I won't be to shocked if they say boy.

I hope you feel good enough to exercise soon. Even just walking a little has helped when I could do it.

Maybe I'll pick up some salt n vinegar chips....

Welcome and congratulations Cottontales!

So glad your scan went well - nothing quite like seeing the heartbeat for the first time. Have updated your due date for you. x

I guess I should put myself in this club, got a positive pregnancy test yesterday and today but with no period I have no clue when my exact due date is but it looks to be August lol So baby boy#3 is on his way :)

Oops! I'll put you as 1st August. Let me know when you get a update on your due date.

I really hope you get your desired gender. Can I take it you're hoping girl but didn't get the chance to sway?

Thankyou everyone, I have sneakily ordered some pink online, hubby said I'm not to buy anything until we have seen the potty shot :oops::oops::D he's worried it will turn into a boy!
Would anyone on here be happy with an 80% girl guess, from a nub specialist? Or should I hold fire!!
Eeekk!

Congrats GreaseMonkey!

14 weeks & still nauseated ugh :( exhausted, no energy, no desire to move. Think I may be getting depressed. Thank goodness I FINALLY see a dr tomorrow & I get the ultrasound

Anyone having any crazy cravings? Mine are Cole slaw and non stop clementines/cuties oranges! I can NOT stop eating them! They are only 80 calories for 2 and are packed full of good things so I don't feel to bad when I scarf them down like cookie monster would eat cookies :)

Ah I am so sorry you're feeling so bad :( I was for awhile but have found eating small amounts during the day seemed to help me. However I am so very nauseous in the middle of the night that I can't sleep at all. Can't wait to hear how the Dr goes tomorrow. ...maybe you're having twins :)

80% sounds good enough to me...maybe get a few pink outfits only until you know for sure. I'm sure hubby will understand.

As far as cravings go yours are very healthy. I've been drinking lemon juice with salt in it, just pure squeezed lemon and salt, lots of tomatoes with salt, orange with salt and anything under the sun with salt. Not good for my pressure I suppose but I hope it will subside soon. Also, cooked tuna sushi with tons of soy sauce, yum!

Welcome to the club! Congrats on your pregnancy. I really wish I had that kind of confidence in my gut feeling! I feel it's a boy again but I'm not confident, really hope my gut feeling is just confused and I'm nesting a baby girl.

7 week mark! Booking my scan for next week. Getting pretty anxious now. :nails:

Maybe just get headband with a bow. I'm not going to get any clothes until I am pregnant for longer like maybe 6 months. If I can last that long it's all very tempting!! I decided to take the amnio even though I know the cvs test is a similar test. in nyc all the girls only get materni21 and they rely on it so much so we want to double check. One of my friends ultrasound the baby neck measured bigger then it should and she won't get the amnio because the materni21 test said she is good! I had such a bad experience that I wouldn't trust anything that a blood screening says.
