UK SMOG Wannabes - November (moved from PL)

[Lavenderlime]

Thank you inglewood it has been a massive help to clarify the full new/full moon thing it does go full, new etc. but there is a full and a new moon within every month. So I will most probably never O in a new moon!! Crap. I always seem to O mid month where full moons seem to fall and newmoons are at the end of the month.

My cycles have gone 27, 27, 29 and i think i'm going to have another 29 day cycle so pretty regular so no chance of this ever changing Think it would take about a year of days shifting a littlle for me to O in a new moon!!!

Lavender, my cycles were odd. I'd ov from day 15-22!! Before my bfp I'd ov around a new moon, but it was getting closer to the full moon each mth. I conceived on 11th aug and the full moon was the 13th! Just made it before the full moon. There are so many other things u can do, just load up on those -ve ions! Not everyone worries about the moon, I did a liitle, but all the other sway factors together are helping things in the right direction! GL x

Congrats DM! You must be over the moon!!!!

All going ok here. Another weekend over. Can't wait for school holidays... I get hubbie home to help for 6 lovely weeks! Mind you probably won't be feeling so sick anymore!!

I think your plan sounds great Inglewood. Loads of people over here in Aus ask for the sonographer to write down boy or girl and put it in an envelope... they either can't decide if they want to know or something like your situation. They really shouldn't have a problem with it!!! Its not like you're asking them to do anything illegal or difficult!!!! Fx they are helpful!

I would kind of love a gender scan but really I don't think we can justify the money. My 12 week scan is costing $220 (135pounds - don't have a pound sign on this comp). At least my 20 week scan is free.

Right question for those of you with older kids. I need to buy presents for my 6 year old nephew and I'm a bit stuck for ideas??? Anyone have any good ideas?

Lavenderlime, This site helped me identify the moons, you may just need to change the mth and it will tell u at what day/time the moon is new, 1st quarter, full, last quarter- The chart at the bottom explains it all- The new moon was yest at 06.09hrs and the 1st quarter starts 09.52 on 2nd dec, the full moon is on dec 10th at 14.36...hope that helps??

Although the moon can be 1 of ur sway factors, like u I tried to get all these things on my side, but u can't help when u Ov...and for me it was so variable! I conceived in the 1st quarter of the new moon.

or this one- http://www.universetoday.com/20177/moon-phases-2011/

some sites the times vary very slightly, but dates stay the same. In jan the new moon is the 23rd?x

Do you know if you are within thegirl/boy territory if you are 2 days away from the new/full moon? Im due to ovulate a few days before it turns to a full moon and not sure if that is still girl territory.

In 2 minds as to wait till the January cycle for first attempt to avoid an August birthday as would only just turn 4 to go into school, lots to decide!

Just found the answer to my own question from ingender, the phase of the moon is important from the day of the new moon all the way up to the day before the full moon starts, my possible O would be 3 days before this so still in girl territory - Imso in-decisive!

Pinga dp's son is 6 and mine 8, they wrote their Christmas lists the other day and they were pretty similar!
Altho I don't actually know what cartoons and stuff you have over there.
Our boys like any gun/sword type toys, Ben 10 figures, bakugan, remote control cars, Xbox games, most Disney film merchandise, cars 2 seems to be a big one here at the moment.
Hope that helps

All this talk of gender scans is making me very jealous lol!

Deaks how's the 2ww going?

We've had a busy weekend looking at houses, birthday parties and general nonsense!
Feeling ever more tired but that's about it for me! Had an appointment to confirm pregnancy, I was given my first bounty pack which makes it feel very real now!
Hope your all good! x

Pleased your app went well
