Part 2: Due December 2017 January and February 2018

Ash - I pray with all my ❤️ that u get your girl. I can tell that she will be spoiled and pampered by u all which will be awesome. I can relate to the weight gain. I already look fat [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]because it's too early to look pregnant and I am like didn't I just find out yesterday that I m pregnant. I have always bn on a heavier side and I m trying so hard to not eat a lot. My body just gains even when I drink water [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849][emoji849].
I m counting days till 9th for your appointment. I m also not telling anyone until my appointment which seems like forever away.
How do u calculate the weeks? Is it from the day of bfp?

Sky most doctors calculate weeks a due date from last period. Like mine started April 10th. So I'm counting from there. And I hear ya on the weight I'm on the larger side also (168 right now) and can gain weight if I say the word cookie [emoji514] so annoying!

I downloaded the baby center app you put in the first day of your last period and it'll tell you your due date and weeks along and give you a weekly update on baby development for that week! I love it

Let me do that too. It will be fun [emoji4]I hear ya about saying the word [emoji514] and gaining weight.

Ash!! Don't get down on weight. I would expect you to be showing, it's your fifth child. I told you on my 2nd pregnancy I gained 15 by week 15 [emoji51] Anyways, I think your having a girl and I'll give you any advice you want [emoji7] I however think I might be having a boy, BUT it's just bc I did stuff so different this time. For full disclosure I thought both my girls were boys too so I'm always wrong [emoji23] My first the heart rate was so low and everyone just assumed so I did too. With my second I was so much sicker and my Sis was sicker with her son than daughter so I just assumed boy. Again, always wrong! I'll probably cave and try to find out asap. It would be cool to know around 12 weeks and announce all together. I gotta ways to go until then [emoji23]

Artisam-I'm only 4 weeks...brand new BFP here :)
Kat-I'm also going to see how it goes, but my plan is to wait until I know gender...which may be 10/11/12 weeks. Luckily I'm out for the summer for my job so I can go to all of my appts & no one will know or see my bump until we go back in August! It may be more of a challenge to keep it under wraps with my fam. My fam adores my boys, but feels like I already have my hands full & don't need anymore. Then there was that random comment from my brother "you know you can't pick the gender of your baby." I haven't talked to him about swaying or really anyone that we're ttc...they just often ask if we want more. I feel like my family will just laugh at me if it's another boy...so I really want to know to avoid the comments while waiting to hear!! And yes-ash & I are the crazies who secretly would love twins lol 🤣🤣, so we'll quit talking so we don't jinx anyone lol[emoji854][emoji854](although it would be awesome & I'd be super jealous lol).


My Ovulation Chart

Kat with all my others I never had a feeling it was a girl This time even before pregnant and knowing about swaying I just knew if I had another it'd be a girl and that's part of the way I got dh convinced to Ttc another lol let's hope I'm not wrong because I already have a Bunch of super cute girl clothes [emoji53]

And I hope you have a boy! You can have all my blue dust! [emoji100] I've never been as sick as I am with this one. I have gained a bunch of weight in the beginning before. And I've never noticed as much hair growth (embarrassing). I guess I'll know soon enough

lol Lola just seen your message. Nope don't want to jinx anyone but it would be awesome/scary to have twins! I was talking to dh and telling I was scared his comment "we will figure it out" in a loving way! I was surprised!! And I have a couple awesome friends who I know will come help with them so it'll be ok


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lola - I soooo get the comments. I'm scared no one will be excited if it's another girl which breaks my heart!! That's why I'm torn about when to tell. I have some time to decide though.

Ash - I definitely don't have a feeling per say. I really just want healthy, that will be the biggest relief!! And maybe laid back [emoji23] We've never had a laid back/easy baby.

Every time I think, this might be my boy! I come crashing back down to thinking it's a girl. I already think we're a little crazy for having another, so it's weighing on me a little right now. The summer squabbles of my older two are probably causing my anxiety. Lol

Srg - Your sway sounds good! When will you be finding out? How old are your girls?

Kat I'm thinking I only have that "feeling" because I've convinced myself it has to be a girl after 4 boys surely!
Srg I'm the same I think I'm insane for wanting another 4 is sooo much to handle 5 is going to push me over the top.

@dreamingella you have a scan tomorrow right? How are you feeling?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My dad when I told him: I thought you got your tubes tied! But he was happy and awkward.

Kat-- I don't get any blood test here, but my 12 week scan is next Tuesday! I have an Ob appointment tomorrow too. My girls are 7, 5, and 1. We haven't told them yet. But this is DEFINITELY the last one!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Kat-I know! I am so excited to have #3, but I'm also so afraid that no one will be excited for me unless it's a girl. I can already hear the comments "she's so girly and poor thing has her hands full with all of those boys." I still can't believe that my one O-1 attempt resulted in a BFP, so I'm feeling like it was girly. Kat-with all of those attempts & diet change, I really believe you will get your boy!
Ash-I also really believe that you will get your girl with your diet change & how you were able to perfectly toned down the BD!! Hope b/c you have terrible MS that it means it will be your girl!Can't wait for your appt!! What time is your appt??
Srg-when will you find out? Are you finding out early?


My Ovulation Chart

Hi Ash. Hi Everyone. Yes, I have a scan tomorrow morning. Sorry for not participating as much as I used to. I'm barely hanging on with this m/s. Hoping to address this at my appointment tomorrow.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Srg - will you ask them at the scan if they can tell gender? They told me my last girl was a girl at 12 weeks so you might be able to.

Lola - when are you planning on calling OB to schedule appt? I was thinking Wednesday or Thursday but.... mine will see me between 6-8 weeks but I like to go closer to 8 so I don't freak out if no heartbeat yet. So I'm hoping to go week of June 26th. Will yours not see you until your 8 weeks? Just curious bc you mentioned first week of July!

Dreaming-sorry you're so sick! Keep us posted on your appt!
Kat-for my previous pregnancies at the same OB office, they wouldn't see me until 8 weeks when they're able to confirm a viable pregnancy. I've already been thinking about when I should call. I had the cervical U/S scheduled to see why I wasn't getting pregnant scheduled for June 8th, so I'll need to call to cancel it. I thought about going in b/c I can't wait to see, but I know it's too early to see anything, so I'll just cancel and schedule my 1st appt. Maybe I'll call Wed also & maybe they'll let me go in the week of June 26 since the next week is a holiday week!! The appts are usually 8, 12, 16, 20 weeks etc. 8 weeks seems like SO far!! When did you say you were planning to tell family? I don't blame you for wanting to tell your boss early so you can avoid Miami!!


My Ovulation Chart

Here's to trying to hold off until Wednesday to call [emoji85] I'm not sure when I'll tell my family. It's just my parents and Sis. They all know we are trying and have kept their mouths shut as to if they think we are crazy or not [emoji23] I seriously doubt I'll be able to wait until I have an ultrasound to tell them. That is awesome you can just start back school pregnant! How long maternity leave will you take? I usually take 12 weeks but might try 10 bc I think my boss is going to be really stressed out I'm gone - ekk!

Kat-I want to call tomorrow sooo bad! Luckily I have a one day class all day tomorr & that should keep my mind off of it...Tuesday may be another story!! 🤣 When is your AF due? I was hoping to be able to say AF didn't show. I plan to take 12 weeks and that would have me going back just in time for a month left of school woohoo haha. Take as much time as you can & enjoy every minute with your baby, especially since it'll be your last right? I'll be our last!

Lola. So happy for you. Was waiting for you people to join. Happy fx fx for BFP. I hope you little girl comes in your way.

Dancingdiva good to hear that you are feeling well now.

Ash. Just four days to go for your appointment. You waited for it desperately.

Srg it's what I am feeling. I am also having a fear to have baby girl again. I want my boy so desperately.

Sent from my ALE-L21 using Tapatalk

Lola - I was suppose to get AF Saturday. If I'm honest, I'm probably gonna call today [emoji85]I mean they say to call when you get a positive test [emoji849]

And if you have a wondfo will you test again today so I can see how dark yours are?? I'll post a picture of mine after I get the girls off. Mines no where near as dark as control line, but progressing nicely!

Haha Kat-I was just getting on here to say that I've convinced myself to call Tuesday! I need to cancel my appt & I mean I need to give someone time to take that U/S spot right lol!! I did test with a wondfo this AM-def darker, but not as dark as control & getting some more frer's from Amazon...I want to see it darker than the control then I can quit for a while haha.
Here ya go. Can't wait to see yours!!

Yours is pretty dark, Lola! Mine are still light. Maybe you are getting those twins [emoji12]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...69ec0fa3ca.jpg

My ob's machine is small and blurry. I'll get better pics next Tuesday at my nuchal scan. :)


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Srg - will you ask them if they can tell gender next week?

Ash - that is so cool about the feelings of having a girl! I bet this is her [emoji175]

I'll ask, but I'll only be 12+4, so I'm not sure how accurate that will be? I got a tentative girl guess with my last babe (the only one I ever did the nuchal with), and that was right!

Lucky! The place I get my Nuchal scan won't even look they're all business

Srg - Sooo cute. I hope you hear u r getting your blue bundle in the next scan.
Ash - 3 more sleeps until your appointment. U have got me so excited. I love what your dh said about twins. How sweet.
Lolla - Love the lines on the wondfo. How are you feeling?
Kat - How are you? You, Lolla and I will have a scheduled c-section. What a coincidence. [emoji12][emoji12]My dd came a day after the due date.
Artisam - I m also 4 weeks. Just got a bfp a week ago.
Srg, Sumbal - I have the same feeling. I really want a boy since won't be going for a third. I have bn doing the Gender tests online and they all say boy and I beat myself up for doing this to myself. I m going to be sad if It won't be right. The comments from the family (not my close family though) are brutal. Our relatives aren't shy of speaking their mind no matter how rude it is.

Dreaming - Good luck for your scan today. Pls update us once it's done.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

Kat-the progression on yours are looking great! Can't say that I'd mind twins lol. Have you called to make your appt yet? I'm on a lunch break from this class & I'm so tempted!!
Srg-cute baby!!
Sky-feeling totally fine! Really tired though. MS typically hits me around 6 weeks. How about you??
Dreaming-let us know how your appt goes!


My Ovulation Chart

Lolla - I just have a metallic taste in my mouth which sometimes changes to bitter too. I just feel uncomfortable at night. I had no ms with dd so Fx this time too.


https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6513f2

Ugh sky I have the uncomfortable at night feeling. Like nauseous, tired but feel like I've been laying in bed for hours, can't sleep or get comfortable.... it's exhausting
