It's my Due Date month!! :bigsmile:
Shoppingqueen- I can't believe how quickly the time has come for you, I am sure it felt slow at times.
Weigh in SW 164 (pre-pregnancy)
CW 168.9 (its still fluctuating)
I think it depends on how much protein I have been having that make my body yo yo with weight loss and gain.
Officially done with summer school and I plan on tracking a lot more this month as well as getting back to some exercise.
Has anyone pregnant looked into car seats yet? Or know of a good one. I wont find out the sex of the baby until the end of the month but I know of all the things that are important I will need that the most.
For all the TTC girls good luck this month.0 -
we bought a travel system and when we did research in consumer report the Chicco Cortina was amongst the highest Rated. That is the one we purchased, but I can't remember what other brands were listed.0

actually it's not u a myth, there's a lot of research that has been put into it. Boy sperm are smaller and fast and tend to reach the uterus first (but die faster than girl sperm) so if the women hasn't ovulated yet the sperm tend to die off before they can fertilize it. Girl sperm are larger (and live longer) and thus take longer to reach the egg. It's not a 100% method, but research has proven that it's true
Everything I have read from medical experts is that there is no way to influence gender. Can you site this research? I would be interested in reading it.
The official stance is that you can't influence the baby's sex! However anecdotal myths say that you can--I believe in the short lived male sperm version, it makes sense and it works so far for me. My first one we were every-other day, my second it was the luck of the draw. First was girl, second boy. Just interesting.0 -
I'm so excited for you ladies! You are all doing so well. ShoppingQueen you look amazing and I can’t wait to see pictures of the sweet pea!
Thanks for the support and guidance.
Checking in: Down .8 lbs this week. Baby steps.... 10.2 left to go.
Still not preventing but not offically TTC yet. I finally made a doc appointment to talk with a professional about the effects of the depo on my system. Too bad she was booked all the way to Sept 15! Ugh..:ohwell:
Hopw everyone has a great weekend! Keep up the good habits and let go of the bad ones!0 -
What books would you recommend for those TTC? We have what to expect before expecting and that has been very helpful, but I wonder if we just aren't getting the dates right with my ovulation, though I know when I'm ovulating. The more literature the better. We have decided that it isn't a must thing right now. It's going to happen when it happens and that's that! :happy:0

Based on this method we got pregnant our first month and have a couple friends who used this method as well. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend it. :-)0

That's awesome, sorry it's not healthy but at least you feel better. My nausea goes away when i eat but comes back about 10 minutes after i've finished eating. it's like I'm on a boat ride all day.

The boat ride is rather annoying isn't it. Yesterday I had the best day yet. I was also up and moving all day--wore myself out. Today I am paying for it! If the nausea wasn't so reassuring it would be really irritating. I start to worry when I don't feel as sick...:sick: :bigsmile:0 -

So I have been slowly weaning myself off coffee so I don't have a huge headache...I've always drank half caf. but I've really cut down on how much I've had...yesterday I threw up all my coffee...thought I'd have a cup today. Stayed for a while. I actually felt good...then it all came back up again. I think i'm done with coffee! Thank you baby for making sure I stop feeding you caffeine! Sorry I waited so long!
Bummer news this morning....my first apt was today but my doctor is not going to be in. I could be angry and made but I'm not going to be because usually there's a pretty important reason why a doctor won't be in. She has twin babies so I hope they are ok. I rescheduled for wed at 3:30. Unfortunately my husband may not be able to get off early to make it.
I can't figure out how to add the baby ticker! Can someone tell me?0
