Was wondering if we can have a Jan 2013 Due date thread?
YEAH.....ME I DO....
JANUARY THE 5TH 2013 IS MY LITTLE BEAN'S DUE DATE....BUT WITH MY HISTORY I MAY GO EARLY OR OVERDUE.....
Toomanyboys im Due Jan 5 !and with one of my pregnancies i was a week early the other a week late:)
I was starting to think it was only me due in Jan so far...
oh honey why? why is jan such a bad month for you..i think it is perfect time for anyone to have a baby..1. your baby will be going to school at a perfect age they will neither be too young neither too old in their class. 2. having a baby in january will be straight after indulging during x mas and then being able to begin a great regime to get your body back into shape before all the holdiday seasons 3. by the easter you and your baby maybe up to having your ever first holiday so you wouldn't have wasted that being Pg or waiting for labour or dealing with all the post labour stresses of a new baby and missing out. 4. you and your baby will be well on the way to be totally settled and ready for an even bigger holiday in the summer holdidays..by then they begn to wean so feeding and all will be easier they may also sit up by then or even crawl (like my son did) so holidaying on the beach would be fab they will love plauing in the sand and all and you can tan yourself without having to constant hold them and they will have a proper routine eat and play in the day and sleep at night...you can enjoy your new fit body in summer clothes you can take baby out and about and enjoy life with all your family...5. you can spent the horrible rainy, cold maybe even snowy early days of jan, feb and march cosying at home with your baby allowing you to bond and this way not waste any good weather....its a perfect excuse not to have to worry how you look and what to wear....cause everyone else is mostly home.....so you don't miss out....on anything reallyQuote:

Hi ladies,
I can join in too. I'm due 3rd Jan, but crossing my fingers this baby arrives in Dec, I want a 2012 baby. I think it's funny what you wrote toomanyboys about the positives being born in Jan. I'm in Australia so everything is opposite. Will be middle of hot summer, so no cosying up inside with bubby, and no bikini. We live on the beach too so impossible to take new born to the beach but my other two will want to go, this will be tough. And because our school year runs from Jan - Dec (which no offence but seems so logical compared to your way, lol) baby will be a young one. So all the positive points you made are all negative in the southern hemisphere, lol.
Hope everyone is feeling well. I really don't feel great at all, I have a lot of cramping and excruciating painful stabbing pain on my right side on and off. Also I have a small heart condition and have been getting a lot of heart pain as if I'm having a mini heart attack, mainly at night with palpitations and trouble breathing. I was a gym junkie prior to Le diet so last week I eagerly jumped back into the gym and doing classes, weights etc. so this may be part of the problem, my body spent 4 months idle and now it's feeling the pain of working out. So lots of aches and pains. But no other real symptoms which im kind of concerned about too. Im hoping morning sickness hits me this week just to make me feel better. Never thought id say that! I half expect to see blood whenever I go to the toilet but none yet. Have my first gp app on Tue so will be good to talk to my dr n hopefully get some reassurance.
Glad that there's a thread for us! X
Hi Lala, i remember you getting your bfp and we are days apart our due dates too,sorry about feeling bad, i had the same palpitations when ttc as i think it was due to taking baby aspirin every day,i weaned off so it stopped ,and i do get it when im sleeping a bit now too especially when i get up fast in the night!Its worse if you sleep on the left side i find too,i guess it is your heart working harder to pump blood for the baby i heard my last pregnancy my doctor actually prescribed me baby aspirin because of i needed it to help the blood flow to the uterus,but in your case its good you are getting a check up early if you have heart problems and you are experiencing pain ,thats not good,do you normally have to go to a heart specialist to see if you can deliver naturally?We do here,,or do you have already c section planned because of it?I hope you get some reasurrance on tues then:) Im going tomorrow for my first scan so im excited and relieved to finally get that and hopefully relax after:)
Oh and dont worry even if your due date falls in 2013 because it is the lucky year of the dragon until feb 2013 according to chinese calendar to be born under that sign,so very lucky ,if you were worried about 2013 being unlucky?Actually if you believe all that 2012 is a leap year and considered unlucky,so were set being January:)
I guess I'm just silly for wanting a December baby! IF I could O in a couple weeks and conceive, I would get my December baby because I always go 3 weeks early, or right on 37 weeks! I hope that's what happens!!!!Quote:

http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t...st/bfpdust.gifOh i bet you will hun,i totally have a good feeling about it for you!! And wow! 3 weeks early!
Oh GOOD! If one of my friends has a good feeling it will be soon, then perhaps it will be! I've now been taking Vitex and Raspberry leaves for over a week straight! And I've been getting those hormone headaches!Quote:

Makes me feel better to know that others are getting palpitations too. I mostly get it at night time, but I find that if I half sit up with pillows propped behind me to sleep it tends to get much better. Always worse when I'm lying down. I have a large pfo which is a hole in my heart that shouldve closed as a baby. They discovered it when I was pg with ds2, but since the Le diet n pg ive had lots of chest pain etc so will see what doc says. I delivered ds2 naturally and theres no concern as far as I know to deliver this one naturally too. But I am concerned with my symptoms, which makes me anxious and hence more palpitations, etc (vicious cycle!) I just need some peace of mind, kwim?
Good luck with your first scan tomorrow, how exciting! Always makes you feel better to see them! I can't wait to have mine, but probably still 6-7 weeks away :( Let us know how it goes! X
butterfly spirit, thinking of you and hoping baby dust settles on you ASAP! X
Hi ladies, joining you!!! Due January 21st! :) So excited that we made it in the year of the dragon!
congrats ladies! i go for my 1st drs app to get due date on tuesday. by tickers i am due jan 5th by last period =)
Joining you all, I'm due 30th Jan 2013, but will likely be a February baby!!!!!!!!!
Hi gals, I'm joining up too, my BFP lines are super-dark now and I really believe it :p Due January 24th, right after Ribbons!!
I agree with you gals who are in the northern hemisphere, winter babies are nice for being snuggly and staying inside with. We get so much snow, so I'm looking forward to cuddling up with my babe by the fireplace and watching the snow fall :)
Oh nice finally some more January babies :flowerz: yipee:) I went for my ultrasound today im dated at 7 weeks 5 days today and heard the heaRT beat :awe:and i have my due date to Jan 2 now..Ive been taking a bit of time off the computer lately as ive felt awful the last few weeks,im fine in the morning ,but after 2 its just painful,cant wait until the day is over!!My doctor gives me primperan here but it really does nothing!!Im using the sea bands too but i dont know how much they help?Any new tips for helping morning sickness,or afternoon sickness i should say?
Sea bands are helping me, but I'm not quite to what's usually the worst for me, around 6-10 weeks. I do think they help b/c I took them off in the sun Sat afternoon (didn't want a tan line!!!!) and was feeling pretty ill all afternoon - wore them Sun and didn't feel poorly at all.
I'm also taking B-6 3x a day (25mg morning, noon, bedtime) and I am making sure I eat some complex protein and a little carbs around every 2 hours. So far it is all working pretty well.
Yeah im totally addicted to my sea bands i fell asleep wearing them 2 nights now,hihihi.But i do beleive they help me too,and i also drink coke if it gets really bad,i know i hear its a no no,but i drank fizzy drinks through all of my pregnancies and not a problem...
I was wondering if anyone has told family yet they are pregnant?I told my mom and she said why did you want to have another?I was kinda expecting it as with my second she kinda said the same,as in why another???I have wanted children all my life and feel for me,, it is THE most important thing in this world,my children are my life!I guess my mom was really young and didnt feel that way?!Just hard to hear that when you expect to hear ,oh wonderful news Congrats,especially as this will be our last baby,and im 38!Then we told my DH Parents and his Dad was smiling happy from ear to ear(he's really hoping for a girl)And always wanted 3 but stopped at 2 boys.But his Mom was in shock and thought we were joking?She said congrats but she didnt look to pleased:(
Well it is a let down ,but i am over the moon ,myself,and i guess they are just worried about us,in the end....i dont know,any one else shared the news yet?
sweetsister, I told my mom and she was worried (b/c of the possible complications) but is still cautiously excited... my sister was ecstatic, she so desperately wants one of us to have a girl, b/c all we've been able to produce is boys and she's done! Haven't told anyone else yet... we want to make triple-sure the bean is in the right place before we get anyone else's hopes up. This one was expected b/c we've been trying for awhile and everyone knows it - but the next one (if I can talk DH into it LOL) will be a BIG surprise and I won't be looking forward to telling everyone about that...
We don't tell anyone until I am around 22 weeks. My DH and I keep it to ourselves.....
I love been able to talk about my pregnancy on here LOL!!!!
Had my first appointment today. They gave me a due date of Jan 4th =) my son (who isnt listed below as his father asked me to not talk about him online as he lives with him) his 10th birthday is Jan 2nd. lol. First ultrasound is set for the 22nd of June. =)
We haven't told anyone yet. I like to wait until around 12 weeks just because I feel most comfortable once the first trimester has passed. But I also don't want to hear ppl's reactions. I'm really happy to be pregnant and don't want to hear from anybody who may not be happy about it!
We will probably tell our parents around 12 weeks, but I told DH I'm just going to post pictures of the bigger fan we'e planning to get on Facebook in a couple of months and let ppl figure it out on their own, hah!
Of course I will call my midwife too, probably after we move next month.
It's tough when not everyone is happy. I also have always wanted children and my family is my world. I'm so happy about another baby but people just don't see things the same way.
Yeah me too,usually i wait until i pass the first trimester,but this time i didnt want to hide it that long as its our last,and i visit our inlaws at least 2 times a week for luch or dinner and they give me grief for not having wine or beer with meals(we normally have with our meals where i live),And now im feeling morning sickness i havent visited ,and i dont want them to feel i dont want to see them,they are the most lovely people i know so i felt i needed to share with them,and i THOUGHT it would bring happiness as its been tough around here as of late,,,but actually my Dh told me my mother inlaw is really excited now ,i guess she just needed some time to get over the initial shock of it:)
I'm joining in here!! 3rd beta came back at 10,675. I am now 5 weeks and a couple of days!! We are not telling anyone until 12 weeks.
That is SO fantastic mydream. What a great beta!
You must be SUPER relieved!!! :)
Attachment 2824
Thank you! I am relieved each time I get confirmation things are progressing well. It is very nerve wracking and I'm still being so cautious about being totally thrilled. Still scared at times.Quote:

Ribbons, on Tuesday when I went for u/s she said I was measuring 5 weeks, so then today I would be 5 weeks, 3 days.
I think due date is 1/23 according to LMP.
I've always wondered about that... b/c according to my LMP I would be due on 1/21... but we are measuring exactly the same now, so shouldn't we have the same due dates? I think it's silly the way that they do it, but I guess they have to b/c a lot of people have no clue about when they o, yada yada :)Quote:

Ribbons - the calculation acc to LMP is count nine months from date of LMP and add 5 days right? This is also acc to a reg 28 day cycle which I don't have. I have shorter cycles so I have no clue ... Lol! Either way we are due date buddies. Horray!
Exactly... and my cycles are longer, but whatever, we'll still be welcoming our little ones in the world probably the same week :DQuote:

has anyone else experienced increased appetite? I am constantly hungry! i find i get a bit queasy around 1-2pm but not everyday, only here and there.
Kiesse - YES! Constantly hungry. I've already gained almost 4 lbs since O!!! Yikes!!! It's leveling out a bit now though, I kinda pigged out after my BFP :)Quote:

Hi girls and congrats on your BFP's!!!
I'm coming out of lurkdom now and joining you all. Due 8th, I think. :bigsmile:
Sounding very similar to me jjc3434. Normally I don't lose hair till after having baby but I am losing a crazy amount. No heartburn either here which I suffer with from before bfp for last 6 pregnancies.
I think it's lovely that you can't find out till 20 weeks. I say I want to stay team yellow but I just know curiosity will get the better of me.
jjc I am also losing hair right now which is strange, even DH commented on it. I'm guessing pregnancy hormone levels are still building up and it will stop over the next few weeks.
Ladies I know that most of our sigs say what we are hoping for, but I was thinking it might be nice to have a master list with due date and desired gender (or gender if HT)... maybe in the opening post?
