We got our positive today. Looks like my due date would be 8th September going off period date but 14th September going off ovulation.

Anyone else get BFP for September baby?

@Sweet211 Can't believe you went through IVF too for your first. How old are they? Glad your scan went well! Is your expected due date 24th Sep then? That must be tough being on insulin but I bet they are monitoring you closely which is great news.

PPop · 17/03/2023 10:31

Yay! Fellow September babies our due date is 18th September but likely to be around the 11th as will be a scheduled c section! The sickness has passed and now at this nice/slightly uneasy bit that seems a bit easy 😂

Sweet211 · 17/03/2023 12:47

@Jane1284 LO turns 6 in June. Expected due date is 23rd September have you had your scan?

@PPop hi welcome and congrats 🎉 on your pregnancy how far are you? I’m 12+5 weeks I had my scan yesterday

PPop · 17/03/2023 12:48

I am 13+ 4 I had my scan last Wednesday 😊 so exciting! How have you found it?

TheswedeJ · 18/03/2023 20:21

Sweet211 · 19/03/2023 01:06

@PPop yeh found it exciting and thank god the nausea has gone

Sorry, I'm not on fb but I'm in a bit of a pickle so here's my rant. I have my first scan tomorrow, with my diabetes and thyroid disease I'm really nervous that things won't be ok. Initially we weren't going to tell the family until we had seen baby and things were fine, however yesterday when visiting my MIL & FIL I had to tell them since they smoke a lot and around pretty much anyone. My in laws are of course over the moon, and stopped smoking around me. The issue though, is when I said we were leaving the gender/sex as a surprise until birth this time, they both flipped out. My FIL gets upset about hot topics easily, so he thinks this decision is because we're being "woke". My MIL just thinks we're being unfair because buying any colour other than blue or pink is apparently too hard. They are both very nice people, except when you have another opinion or plan contrary to their beliefs, then they get extremely dramatic. My own mother is like this so I have experience in dealing with it but DH deals with his folks differently and simply let's some things slide, whereas my mother now knows better than to interfere too much. I'm usually ok with how DH deals with it, I understand, however DH wants us to give in and find out the gender for them and I'm sorry but this is a big deal for me. Last time we did the gender reveal, MIL just had to know before the party so we let her see the forbidden envelope. Granted she never told us, but she told everyone else and our actual party became extremely small because almost everyone else already knew. DH and I really wanted to be the ones to break the news this time, we want things to be more personal, but MIL is already choosing names, nursery furniture, telling us what to do and this is our third child, she never got this involved before. She doesn't even babysit the grandkids she already has, she is very upset over this whole gender thing and I don't know what to do. Has anyone here had to chastise the in laws? I don't want to, it took me ages to get my own mother to stop interfering but she has already announced on fb that she will be a grandmother again AND posted the names SHE has picked out. Sorry for the long rant but DH is at work (he drives an HGV and is due home this evening but wasn't around yesterday for the drama) so I've come here.

PPop · 20/03/2023 10:07

Is there a Facebook group?

@SarahGD89 I haven't had to chastise the in laws really, they are pretty chill about the baby as they have grandchildren already from my SIL and are pretty involved so I think that all needs have been filled already 😂 so I'm sorry I'm not much help!

SarahGD89 · 20/03/2023 10:18

@PPop yes there's an fb group but I jacked in most social media during the pandemic. I thought mine were chill tbf, when they go on their political ideology rants I do as DH does and just go to my happy place and let them rant. If I knew gender was going to cause such a fuss I would have said nothing and just stood outside 😂

Ohh hopefully someone can invite me somehow 😂

So they want to know the gender but you want it kept a secret? Sorry I have terrible brain fog today. And previously they ruined a gender reveal?

SarahGD89 · 20/03/2023 10:39

@PPop yeah they want to know the gender, a quote from MIL "how will anyone know what to buy?" My elderly neighbour said she'll knit something for us in grey and white so I wrongly assumed MIL was able to buy different colours.
For our DS2 she got a peak at the gender before our friends who were planning the gender reveal did. She told everyone on DHs side and most of them ended up not coming so it was a bit disappointing. With DS1 we just found out at the scan and told everyone. DH and I have been trying for baby number 3 for years but I ended up with numerous health issues, we had to wait longer, so we're simply grateful for a positive test this time. We're probably going to have another boy but it doesn't matter, and we don't want everyone so involved this time so no parties. My in laws are always throwing parties so we figured they would be disappointed but not to this extent.

PPop · 20/03/2023 10:48

@SarahGD89 sounds like she's being a bit of a spoilt brat tbh 😂 can your DH manage her a bit easier or is she a force of nature type of person?

SarahGD89 · 20/03/2023 10:59

@PPop oh she's definitely a force of nature, my FIL does go mental but he will go quiet on his own accord, nobody tells MIL what to do though. DH is already nervous and backing down a bit but I feel like I can't just let this slide, my own mother is like her and yes it took a long time and a lot of tears, but it's doable. I've had to sacrifice an awful lot from my birth plan and any future birth plans because of my health and I will not be giving up what little I can have, because MIL can't let her son's and partners get on with their own lives.

Hello!
I'm new to the thread, excited to join the conversation! I've known I was pregnant for months but thought the due date would be a lot later😂So I'd been waiting for the dating scan to see when baby was actually coming before I joined a group. Well, we had that last week & now my EDD is 26th September!

Sweet211 · 27/03/2023 22:58

@MummyInBucks hi welcome! Same here I didn’t know I was nearly 3 months pregnant I thought I was going through menopause I had no symptoms then I recently had a dating scan to confirm my pregnancy I couldn’t believe it! I had sickness but thought it was acid reflux all this time
