Anyone want to join me?

[tnrsmom]

I am due with baby #6 late April but will more than likely be born well into May. My lmp was July 20th which would put my edd at 4/27 but my babies never come out that early without some prodding. I will be having my 2nd home waterbirth. My first 4 were hospital births and after the Hb last time, I could never deliver anywhere but home again.

This baby was very much not planned (unlike all the others) and caught us severely off guard. Dh and I were not real happy when we found out but within a few hours warmed up to the idea and are now thrilled!! We have only told a couple of people so far and plan to tell our kids and the rest of our family today. Wish us luck. I know my ILs are going to be terrible about it. With baby 5 they were very rude and she was planned! I can not wait to see what they say about this one. Luckily they live in FL and we are in MI so we do not have to see them much. Unfortunately though, they are coming for a visit and we will be spending 4 days with them next week.:

I have not had any ms yet and usually do not get it. I do get food aversions and a bit of naseua but nothing debilitating so I feel very lucky.

Looking forward to chatting with all of you over the next 8ish months.

congratulations tnrsmom! i'm really hoping to be joining you in this thread, but i can't say for sure just yet! my dh and i haven't been ttc, rather just "letting things happen." it's a little too early for me to test, but i just have that feeling lately that i really am pregnant.... i'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for #2!

[AutumnW]

I'll join you! I've been waiting until someone else posted first here

I'm also due in late april but this is my first so I'm assuming I'll go late. We're right together my lmp as 7/19, edd 4-25.

I've had a couple waves of nausea, but nothing serious. It kind of worries me because my sister and mom both have severe morning sickness. But then again they both had multiple mistake pregnancies and it took us over 2 years to concieve with meds,

I feel way behind everyone in the april ddc so I'll probably spend a lot of time here.

Nice to meet you!

ETA: I'll also be having a homebirth with the midwife I used to assist. Maybe water, maybe not, who knows what I'll feel like doing, lol

I'll switch between here and April ddc because I was due in early May w/ ds and he came 3 days early and was born in April. I guess it wasn't really early because he was full term but I meant before his dd.

Looking forward to chatting with all of you over the next 8ish months.

We are on the same cycle!!! My LMP was also on July 20th.

Umm presonal question here.... feel free to ignore.... when did you dtd? We did on 8/04 and I knew I had concieved.

I have had nausea and an adversion to sweets but that is diminishing as I ate an ice cream bar yesterday.

[tnrsmom]

Welcome everyone!!

Velvet, I am almost positive we conceived on the 30th. This was totally unplanned as we were using bc.

[Velvet005]

Hmmm, maybe we caught the end of the cycle or I am on a 30 day cycle instead of a 28 day cycle. Oddly enough this was the first cycle I had remembered the begining of my LMP since ds was concieved. We weren't planning on another right now BUT we certainly didn't take any precauctionary measures either

[tnrsmom]

I usually have 26 day cycles, or at least I have the last 6-8 months. That would put us at exactly the same spot if you have 30 day cycles. I noticed ovulation on CD 9 this month and when we DTD on day 10, I did not think anything of it. We have used condoms for almost 10 years and despite having 5 kids already, we never had an oops until now. All the others were planned. I am so thrilled though.

[Leylla]

I'm here....

Got my BFP yesterday! EDD is 5-5-07 I *think*

Altough this baby will probably be here in April. I went into labor with my last one at 38 weeks, and the first one was an emergency c/s at 37 weeks, so I don't know when I would have gone with him....

But either way, it's all good...

My LMP was 7-23 or 7-24, I was getting ansy so I took a test on Monday and got a very faint line, not sure if it was really a line or not sort of line. I took another one this morning and got a much more clear faint line. Still faint, but positive none the less.

So! I think that gives me a due date of May 1st with my ~30 day cycles, however both my babies were 2+ weeks overdue and c/s and I will be having a planned c/s for this one, BUT I don't want to take the baby too early (my babies were so strong and healthy I know they were supposed to go 42 weeks), so I think I'll flub my dates a little and give the docs a July 31th LMP, which would be a May 7th due date.

[Amylcd]

I'll join you in here. EDD is April 30th.

[melodyka]

Hello ladies!
I would love to join you all- my expecting due date is May 5th!

I just got the BFP and am so elated!!!

I look forward to sharing the joys & thrills of our pregnancies

[UltimateSerj]

hi ladies! i am pregnant with my 4th baby, due april 27th also! this is our first actaully planned baby!! first totally unplanned, 2 and 3 where not prevented but not planned but welcome lol

my lmp was july 23 and i had a 26 day cycle last month and we dtd on the 3rd late at night!(my birthday lol)

My oldest was 3 days late 2nd was due date and last was a week late so there is a good chance of a may baby

my 3 where waterbirths at a birthcenter (which i loved! they are like family to me) but we are 90 minutes from them now, so we are having a homebirth, since i have never birth out of water i am going to have to come up with some way to have a pool in my house my tub is to tiny for me not prego!

[ChioMamaPT]

I'm here!

I just got a positive test today and an expected due date of May 3!

Congratulations to everyone!

[wanderinggypsy]

I'll join you all!
I'm officially due April 25 but my babies are ALWAYS at least a weeks late, so I know I'll be delivering in May.

[jessicaSAR]

I'll join you too. I had a positive test 4 days ago, with a EDD of 5/2/07. I am very excited to be having a third (it took a while to convince dh). This will probably be my last since I will be 40 when this babe is born. Still keeping my fingers crossed that it sticks.

tnrsmom - hoping for good news.

[darsmama]

Hello Mama's!

Still reeling from the news, I will be due sometime in May. That makes 3 under 3 for me!
I ovulated twice last month, and it was completely unexpected. We have been doing NFP, but it didn't take into account a twice in one month bit. Velvet and Tanner, I also have the same cycle.
I ovulated a second time on the fifth of august though time #2.

Hoping for lots of baby stickies.

[darsmama]

Oh, also I plan on having another home waterbirth, attended by a friend who is almost like a midwife and definetly a dear person I'd like to have with me.

[MOMGOTSPUNK]

Hi, I hope, hope, hope that I can join you!

Hi.
Tnrsmom, I totally hear you about not being excited at first but then totally warming up to the idea. The problem with me is I don't even know for sure yet. I feel pregnant, and have been getting nauseaous BUT have not have BFP or a missed period. I hope that I am. I completely hear you about telling the ILs too.....with me I am worried about telling my parents. Lately they have been going on and on about how perfect 2 children are. Darsmama, I would also have 3 under 3 if this turns out to be true.

Please send me good thoughts this way!!!

If I am it will be a EDD 05/07/07. My other home pregnancy tests have always come up negative even when I have been pregnant in the past. Therefore I am taking a test at the County Nurse's Office on Tuesday. I hope that I am not getting my hopes up for nothing.............:

[stanleymama]

I would love to get in on the fun!! I just had a pos. test yesterday and am soooo excited! This will be baby #5 for us, and after having 4 boys, we are hoping for another boy...how funny is that! But we will be happy with whatever God blesses us with.

It looks like I am due around end of April/first part of May, which is a little bit stressful because my dh is a full-time law student and he has finals right during that time. I know its all gonna work out though one way or another.

This is my second due date club that I will have been on here at Mothering. I am looking forward to getting to know you all and celebrating this exciting time!

[MOMGOTSPUNK]

Stanleymama, how old are your lovely boys????? I have a 8 month old, and I love him to death. I also have a cute little girl who is 2 1/2.
