Uk SMOG Wannabes ~ January

[maybebabythree]

Deaks I did egs for a year. Then dropped bits and bobs but I did sway a bit all along. Took supps and aci gel when I got pg. But me and dh had fertility issues so it was pointless swaying hard after we had tests. It was hang all hope on a girl and sway hard knowing I wouldn't get pg or realise we are 37 and unlikely swaying would get us pg. I wish I had the tests sooner but it's done now. As long as baby comes safely then in the grand scale of things the journey is over, just not by the best path. Final destination is not as important as the journey x

Bravo maybe - although i am obsessing over the sex of my baby - the main importance is a healthy baby at the end of the day and i am truelly grateful after many many tears and trials at TTC for ds2 and ds3 that this baby happened first month - for that i am thankful and shocked still!

morning girls!!!

deaks hope af stay away!

charlie boo to the fmu test but you are over 10 weeks and they say do it before then. mine was 5.89/90 this morning will calibrate my hannah tonite and test again in the morning! but i think it will b around the 6 mark so still borderline with either so no help there!!!

[littlemisswilko]

charlie just read another test you can do. you add FMU to baking soda and if it fizzes its a boy , no fizz girl! suppose to work after 10 weeks

The main thing is to be happy with what you did to sway. The only thing more I could have was the diet but you can't eat like that for 2.5 years so no regrets with my sway at all. The most important thing for me was I didn't want five school years between ds2 and baby as it's impossible to get my kids into a decent school here unless on the sibling rule.

are we all back on school runs today??? HUGS to all if you are - the weather is FOUL dark, peeing it down and windy BLEURGH!

Deaks FX for no AF

doesnt bode well my SMU was at least 8 on my strip :O

My son doesnt start pre-school til Thursday, yay! Went to soft play this am and now dvd and blankets :-)

I just tested my urine, ok it wasnt fmu but hey ho lol,it went up to 6.3 from 5.2 the other morning, will test in am. Surely our urine PH just reflects our diet over the last day or so though? I had baked potatoe and beans and cheese yesterday, then a biscuit and chocolate milkshake this am and a burger at lunch so not suprised its gone up a bit.
I think Im ok with having another boy, much better than when I was pregnant with DS2, dont know why, I just feel oddly calm about this one ending up being a boy,maybe its because no one knows Im pregnant so am not getting any gender questions, or I have just no hope of a girl and accepted it lol!

so ds2 doesnt start preschool till next tues DOH....and i got so so wet on the school run never seen rain like it!!

i agree chocolate that the ph of the urine must reflect what we eat dink in some way! When are you due? looks like we are exactly 14 days apart from one another!!! how exciting!!!!! so what very early September?

Should be 3rd of September ish so very close! I have a scan on Monday, I suspected twins as hcg was doubling daily, but that feeling has died down now, also just not feeling pregnant so if all is well then the scan will be reassuring as only feeling a bit tired really. Although saying that - I think I felt sooo bloated and uncomfortable the first few days but not due to pregnancy, due to being able to eat what I wanted so that may have confused things.

When do you have your first scan?

[littlemisswilko]

how did you manage them to give you an early scan? i havent got one booked yet as i havent been to see the midwife yet! she did leave me a msg to get in touch with her b4 xmas but someone deleted it! i rang today to ask about it and get an appointment to see if they can give me anything for the spots i have been getting lately. I have been getting really bad cramps and pains in my right side and worried it might be something! but i dont know whether im being a hypochondriac!
