Yeah! A February due date club! Roll call!

[Pinoikoi]

Who's here?

[JamesMama]

I am!!

I'll more than likely end up going in Jan, but I'm here anyway. Well depending on what you use to figure the EDD. I wasn't temping, did use OPK's so I have a **rough** idea of when I ovulated. By that date I'm due Feb 4, by LMP I'm due Jan 30. I'm honestly hoping for a Feb birthday because my son's bday is January 30 and I'd like him to have a birthday.

This is our third We're sooooo excited!!!

Hey Jamesmama! I am due 2/08 but my last kiddo came 2 weeks early, so I am probably a Jan also (technically).

This is my 6th pregnancy. We are hoping for our first girl!

[LouisianaMomma]

By my LMP I am Due January 30th. So I am hoping for a late January-Early Febuary 2010 VBAC

[klemomma]

I'm expecting #4! Based on LMP, I'm due end of January, but I think I O'd a bit later, so I'm expecting last week of January or first week of February. Yay! :

: I just did the Chinese Gender Predictor. It was right with both my other kids, it says GIRL.

Which going by DH's family history that's what it'll be.

DH's grandpa and his brothers and his grandpa's father and HIS brothers (for generations) if they have more then 2 children it goes boy, girl, girl. For EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. It's almost freaky. I'm betting on a girl...I'd honestly be shocked if it were a boy...happy, but shocked.

Hey! I am 16 dpo (almost 4 weeks!) My due date is 2/4/2010.

I just scheduled my first prenatal at around 8 weeks before my trip to Asia (I grew up in HK).

This is our first pregnancy. I have a strong feeling that I will have a boy. The chinese calendar predicts a girl though... so we will see what happens!

good luck everyone =)

can't wait to share this pregnancy journey with all of you

[Danielle13]

I'm here...I think

Danielle, mama to nursling Valley who is 20 months.

2 bfp's today and 3 bfn's. all with afternoon urine. So we'll see.

we've been trying for a while....please be it!!

I would be due feb 2. The chinese calender says boy for me, we're not finding out this time so maybe its true

[Pinoikoi]

Wishing us all some sticky baby vibes!

[mtnmoonmama]

I'm here!! I am due with our 3rd in the end of Jan, but was late with my first 2 so I'll probably be late with this babe too. I am cautiously optimistic at this point as I've had several m/c - all between 4 and 5 weeks. This fri I'll be 5 weeks and *hopefully* my nerves will calm down some. Look forward to getting to know you all!

[feministmom]

I'm here! Congrats to all!

Amy, Mama to Natalie, 2.5. Going by LMP, I'm due February 5th. DD was induced : at 41 weeks, 2 days, so I'm expecting this baby to be late as well.

I have a consultation with a new midwife next week.....I hoping to have a better birth experience this time. I had midwives with DD, but they were more like "medwives."

DD has been down to nursing twice a day (morning and bedtime) for months now.....I am not up to tandem nursing and I don't want her weaning to be associated with her new sibling, so I feel a lot of pressure to wean her soon, even though it's breaking my heart. Tonight I gave her a one minute warning (which I do every night) and she cried when I ended the nursing session--never happens anymore. I'm thinking of cutting out the am nursing....if we get right to breakfast or I'm up before her she doesn't ask or mind skipping it. Anyone BTDT? Advice?

Well, I weaned my 4yo when he was 2.5. He was the only one I had that nursed extensively (although I was certainly willing ). I just started telling him what a "big boy" he was and that nursies were for babies "cause they don't have any teeth!" and I would get him to show me his teeth and just distract him until he wandered off.. by that point he had only wanted to nurse when I came home from work and when he was ready for bed anyway, so it really wasn't too hard.. he still likes to grope me though, especially in church .

I did tell him if we have a new baby the new baby would need nursies "cause it won't have any teeth yet and it will cry and cry cause it's hungry" he said that would be "otay." Very solemn nod on that one. He will be the only other child at home by the time this one is born (all my others are school age), so we have been telling him that he will be the official helper, etc..

Sorry I don't have better advice for you.

My belly is all bloated. I like 3 months pregnant already. The doctor's office did NOT call me back yesterday and tell me my pregesterone numbers, either. I had a blood draw on tuesday because I THOUGHT I wasn't o'ing.. turns out my numbers were WAY off base (possible pcos), but we got an egg and caught it anyway!

Still, my PA was concerned that my progesterone was only at 9 on Tuesday, and she was concerned if it was still below 15 that we would need to start some progesterone pills, but then I never got my test results!

I called the pharmacy last night to see if they got a medication request for me, which they didn't so that assured me a LITTLE, but not much.. they don't open until 9, and I have a class that starts at 8!

Anyway, I am hoping my hormone levels are UP and making me look like a "cantaloupe" but I guess I can only wait and see..

I think I am here with you guys. I haven't tested yet, but my partner and I had an "oops" two days before I ovulated, and then I experienced what I feel certain was implantation bleeding.

I am still trying to work out my feelings about this possible pregnancy, and I think a part of me is still in denial that I am pregnant. I need to see those two lines and figure out how to proceed.

I am using the day of the implantation bleeding as my day of conception, making my due date 02/09. I am going to tell the world a week later, though, because I went two weeks past (and knew my conception date) with my son.

I, too, am still nursing a toddler, but he tells me all the time that there is not much milk, so I am thinking he will give it up before his sister/brother is born.

I may be way off base and not be pregnant at all, and I don't even know when I should test, but until I find out otherwise, I am going to assume I am pregnant and hang out with you guys, if that's okay. My relationship with the father is not at a very committed place, and I know that I am going to need some wise-woman support during these months if this is to be.

I am pretty sure I am going to go UP/UC again with this pregnancy, but it really depends on DPs level of involvement in the pregnancy and his willingness to be there as my support person during the birth. I may try and find a midwife this time, for backup if nothing else.

Hello. I'm sneaking in to say a very tentative hello. I'm expecting number 4. I didn't O until CD28 this time so, I'm definitely sticking with conception date not LMP. That makes me another mama due Feb 4th. But, assuming a sticky one (and I'm not assuming anything right now!), baby will be coming a little early so I guess I'm straddling two DDCs.

I don't know how much I'll post initially, one miscarriage and one beautiful but not breathing little girl has made it impossible for me to really relax about pregnancy. But HUGE congratulations to everyone who is here. Wishing you sticky babies and happy pregnancies.

I just got a BFP today on temp count/luteal phase day 15 (usually mine is only 12 days) and chart day 40. I have irregular cycles. By my calculations, I'm due February 4, although my LMP says January 24 (bull hockey!). Last time I was induced at 37 weeks, although I was 3-4 cm dilated at that point. So I wouldn't be surprised if I give birth in January. I have a 2 year old daughter who is still nursing VORACIOUSLY.

[moondiapers]

I'm here, due 2/7/10

[wendimarie97]

Hello!

I am due February 6th! This is my fourth pregnancy and I am so excited!! I have a son (4.5 years) and daughter (2 next month). I had a miscarriage right before her pregnancy.

I still can't believe I got a positive so early (2 days ago) but had I had been feeling funny when my daughter was nursing and had already started peeing all the time.

I can't wait to have another HBAC!!

[starshine1001]

Hey there, ladies! It's been a little while since I've been active on MDC...I started working full-time again and am currently the sole provider for our family (my husband was injured on the job), so I didn't exactly have an abundance of time to spend here! Well, I just found out a few days ago that I'm expecting our third little one! So now I have to MAKE some time so I can chit chat on my DDC! My due date could be anywhere between Jan. 28th and Feb. 1st...not sure because I ovulated twice this last cycle and my cycles are a bit erratic, ranging anywhere from 28 to 34 days long. So, being that I have gone "late" with both of my sons (41.5 and 41), I figured I should join the February DDC. Glad to meet you all!

Baby #4!

I just found out earlier this week that we are expecting baby number 4! I have a set of fraternal twin girls who are a little over 3 1/2, and a little guy who turned a year old last month. I hope this little bean will stay sticky. I am always so grateful to make it to 12 weeks...so that's what I'm looking forward to!
