First time

BabyBabe wrote: Hey ladies!
first time here, trying it out to see if it's any fun and to see if I can make a few friends. Well first off my Real name is Danielle I'm over 2 months pregnant but I am not sure on my due date I say early July, and my husband says June. I have my first prenatal visit on Dec 16th hopefully then I will know roughly when I am due.

Bye for now!

MomToMany replied: Hello, and welcome!! I'm Mollie, mom to 5 & hoping for more sometime soon!

If you tell me the first day of your last period, I could give you a rough estimate on your due date .

PrairieMom replied: Welcome and Congrats!

BabyBabe replied: Hey Mollie and PrairieMom

well mollie my last period was September 4th till the 9th.

Then on September 24th till September 28th I bled out of the blue, so I did go to the doctors and got a (blood)pregnancy test, came out negative, so I left it alone and September 30th till November 15th I kept telling myself I wasn't pregnant and my husband baught me two HPT and they both came out positive.

The on November 23 another pregnancy test by my doctor and that one came out positive as well

Now i've been waiting on the prenatal visit to know when I am due and how far along I am, so far the doctors keep canceling my visits. I do have an appointment for Dec 16th lets hope they don't cancel... but I do want to know what your thoughts is on this Mollie, just curious.... maybe you'll be right

Bye for now!

PrairieMom replied: I'm gonna guess that you are about 13-14 weeks along and that you were just barely prego when you bled out of the blue, so your tests didn't show + yet. just a guess tho! the 16th will be here soon!

CAMSMOM1 replied: Hi Danielle, I"m also new here and let me tell you, the parents on here are so friendly and very helpful. This is the place to go, especially if you're a new parent. We have millions of questions, and it's nice to have somewhere that you can relate to one another. I'm also a young Mom, I had my son at 22 yrs old, now 23 years old. My son is 20 months old, and there is nothing better in life than being a Mom!
Best wishes for your appointment and your new LO.

BabyBabe replied: Hi Ann,

So far I am pleased with this message board, it seems easier to talk and ask questions to these expecting mothers and even mothers, than a friend who has never been pregnant or isn't even a mother.
I was happy to hear that you had your son at 22 years old, I thought I was the only one having a baby at this age, I thought I might of been rushing a bit but mainly I felt a little out of place.
I am only 21 but Dec 18th I'll be turning 22. I've been married for only 5 months, to my husband who is 23. This is our first baby and we just hope everything goes well.
By any chance would you have any suggestions on how to sleep better? I toss and turn all night, I can't sleep on my stomac or my right side, I do have a pillow between my knees and still that doesn't help. I must mention I still get my night sweats.

eggnog replied: Hi! I am new too!!

My last period date was Sept. 8th...and I got a positive pregnancy test at the end of Septmeber...so I guessing you are probably not that far along...otherwise you would have gotten a positive pregnancy test then...especially since Sept 4th to Sept 24th is a 20 day cycle...which is definitly long enough to have an actual cycle. So you could be only 11 weeks along or so due on July 1st if you use your last period date as Sept 24th.

I haven't figured out how to sleep better. I have turned into a tossing and turning insomniac!! A body pillow helps definitly, but I still toss and turn all night.

BabyBabe replied: Okay, so December 16th is just around the corner! Finally!! no cancelation regarding my prenatal visit. That means tomorrow my husband and I will finally find out how far along I am and when my due date is. YAY! we are both very very excited!

Bye for now

CAMSMOM1 replied: Danielle,

Just wanted to let you know I sent you a PM. (private message.) Hope to chat soon!

BabyBabe replied: The prenatal visit is over!

Thats crazy guys! Eggnog and PrairieMom were both right on how far I was and on the due date. I'm 12 weeks pregnant (3 months) and due on July 1st.

Now I'm looking forwards to December 30th for my first ultrasound and hopefully I get a picture of the baby, I'll get to hear the heart beat and if the baby is positioned properly they'll tell me the sex of the baby. All great news just before the New Year.

Now ladies lets all pray that I have a girl here not a boy like the husband wants! I'm pregnant it should go my way, since I'm carrying it and will give it life it's only fair that I pick the sex of the baby. If only it was that easy hahaha.
