Hey guys! Just wanted to start a March due date club! Sign in & let us know when you're due!

I'm due March 5, 2010.

What's crazy is that the baby is going to be born just a week before my daughter passed. (March 11) It was something that I prayed wouldn't happen & tried to prevent, but now I'm thinking maybe it's a good thing! So let me know when your special day is expected to be! :) That is if too many of you aren't on Vacation!

i got my BFP this weekend! i'm so excited, i called the doctor today and they have you come in when you're 8 weeks. the lady said my due date will be March 24th! i can't believe it worked! my husband is in shock i think! we didn't expect it to happen so soon (3 months ttc). used pre-seed and opks though.
i've felt a little tired, had night sweats a few nights and cramps. other than that no AF which is great!
good luck to all of you and glad to see there are a lot of us!

Hi again,
I posted earlier I was getting an early ultrasound at only 6 weeks!!! I was freaking out, I just wanted to know everything was ok and their was a healthy heartbeat, which there was! Phew!! It was 101 bpm. And I have the pic, is there anyway somewhere I could post it???

Hi ladies! Im new here and just got my BFP on the 21st of July. I am due sometime between March 24-26. My first doctors apointment is scheduled for August 17th which feels SO far away! This is my first pregnancy so needless to say im pretty nervous, but extreamly excited at the same time. Im glad there are so many ladies here that can help me with any questions I may have! :)

Hey guys!

Congrats Hurleys! Love to have ya!!

Napolitano- Congrats on the beautiful heartbeat!! I don't know how to post it though.. I would ask stephxx. I saw her post a pic on here before.

J9ine- Congratulationnnns! I know, they always seem to give you appointments that are forever away LOL. And the first appt is boring anyway!

I went to my first Doctor's Appt on Wednesday, 22 and we just went over Medical History. She also sent me for my ultrasound! Baby's hearbeat was 162 bpm! I was so excited, I wish I could post my pic too!! So if you figure it out Nap make sure you let me know!!

Hi everyone

I am also due in march. My due date is 12th March. Very excited to be pregnant after waiting 2 years to conceive but very nervous as I have already had 2 miscarriages. I can't wait to see the heart beat and then I can relax a little. Feeling really tired and sick most of the time. Don't want to complain though - this is what I have been wanting for years!

marble33 said on 7/27/2009 1:48:44 PM Report this post
Nettex, your us picture is SO cute!!!! i love it! I can't wait, my first "nurse" appt. is this friday the 31st. then appt. with the real doctor for exam is Aug. 12th. sometime that week or the next my practice has everyone do the 9 week ultrasound. i cannot wait until then. i am so nervous, Jammy I feel the same as you. I am not feeling too many symptoms, just tired and sore boobs but no morning sickness. i can't help but worry something is wrong, does anyone else feel that way who hasn't heard their little heartbeat yet? i suppose we'll just have to be patient!! congrats to all of you ladies!

Nettex12 said on 7/27/2009 5:05:56 PM Report this post
I was FREAKING out before I heard the heartbeat. I tried not to, but there was nothing I could do but be anxious. Wishing you guys all the best!!!

I have my next U/S on Aug 24 for the First Trimester Screening and then go to the OB on Aug 26. Feels so far away, but I'm just gonna have to hold out, ugh.

My due date has been pushed fwd. to March 6 !

Napolitano said on 7/27/2009 8:36:52 PM Report this post
Hello again :) Marble, I know exactly how you feel and I heard a heartbeat and still feel nervous! But that's partly because I had one sooooo early, and only heard it for a few short second until I started crying because I had to hold my breath to hear it! Going to my first official Doc appt. on Thursday and will get to heard the heartbeat again, should be at a faster pace now that I'm further along, hoping for the best!

I hope you all can see my pic at 6 weeks. Unfortunately I couldn't see Nettex's though.

Thank you J9ine =) Congrats to you as well and good luck with everything!

I know exactly how you feel Jammy, I felt the same way!!! I cried when I heard the heartbeat - it's great!

I'm 9 wks and 3 days today, anxiously waiting to get to the 2nd trimester - can't wait!!!

Jammy said on 8/6/2009 3:20:18 PM Report this post
So the ultrasound proved that there is a heartbeat and a real peanut growing there. I can't believe it!!! They changed my dates a little, my due date is now 8 March.

Have you girls made your good news public news yet? When are you planning to tell people? I haven't told anyone, going to wait to sometime between 12-14 weeks but looking forward to it!

marble33 said on 8/6/2009 6:41:25 PM Report this post
Jammy congrats on hearing your little one!!! We haven't told our parents yet, DH wants to wait until the 9 week ultra sound which is on Aug. 20th. That cannot come soon enough! I am stressing myself out as stated above, so many people we know have had miscarriages, and fertility problems, that i'm worrying too much i think! I feel really good, better than last week and i'm only at 7 1/2 weeks. oh well i should be thinking positive i guess, and not worrying!!! good luck to all of you, how are you all doing??

Nettex12 said on 8/6/2009 7:09:53 PM Report this post
Hey guys- I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow! WhooHoo! So wow Jammy, going from 8 weeks 3 days to 9 weeks 4 days must be crazzzy huh! Wish that was my luck. They pushed my due date forward like a week and half at my first ultrasound LOL. I'm due March 5. So how fast was the heartbeat Jammy??

Everyone else-- hope you're doing GREAT. I'm waiting for my next appt on the 24th. Seems like forever away but at least I'll get to see like a real baby then. I'll be 12 wks 5 days whoohoo! Anyone else getting the nuchal screening test??

Napolitano said on 8/6/2009 8:43:17 PM Report this post
We told our family right away and our close friends soon after, we were just too excited to wait and most knew we had been trying for awhile. We also know people who had problems and as worried as I am, deep down I've been feeling more and more optimistic.

My next doc appointment is Aug. 25th, which I'll be 12 wks and 1 day and I can not wait to hear the heartbeat. I've been waiting to hear it again ever since I was only 6 weeks. My DH and I decided not to do the screening so the next ultrasound won't be until the beginning of October, which I'm so excited for to find out the baby's gender!

Nettex12 said on 8/8/2009 6:35:47 AM Report this post
I def. have started my baby bump. I'd say like 9 weeks I def knew it was there. Of course I'm sure everyone else would think I'm just fat-- but I see it!! With my first pregnancy I didn't start showing until I was about 15 weeks or so. & even then I didn't really look 'pregnant' just kinda chunky in my mid section. By 18 or 19 weeks I was way out there with prego belly LOL -- Just make sure you guys buy a belly band, it's a god send!

So glad we all have eachother to go through pregnancy with. One quick q. Have any of you guys had like a sharp pain shoot up your unmentionable? I've had it a few days this week like it was tightening up in there. Ouch.

Jammy said on 8/9/2009 7:51:33 PM Report this post
Ladies - it's great to be able to read what you all are going through! We all seem to be worrying about the same things - hearing the heart beat for the first time etc..
JS - a baby bump! I have started to get a larger belly already and with my first 2 I didn't really show until 15+ weeks. I am wondering how long I will be able to keep it a secret! Oh well, only another 2 weeks until week 12! Can't wait!
Nettex - the sharp pain - did you get it with your first preg? I get the same pain and had it through all my other pregs. The pain just became more frequent and sore as the preg went on and between 5-9 months I could not walk without being in pain. Apparently it is to do with preg hormones softening the tissues around that area. Some people suffer from it more than others. I have already started to get it this time but only after standing lots or overdoing it.

Nettex12 said on 8/10/2009 5:52:15 AM Report this post
Jam- I don't remember this pain with my first pregnancy.. this pregnancy seems to be a lot different than my first. My boobs also didn't get tender and bigger until closer to DD. & with this one I barely have morning sickness. With the first I threw up alllll the time. Do you have boys or girls or both Jam? Just wondering if u noticed difference in pregnancies??

Yep a a baby bump everyone says it when they see pics from last weekend i you can just see it in my shirts its so cute and i can def tell cuz alot of my work pants i cant button and another i cant even zipper lol thank god i wear an apron for work...and cant stand to wear jeans anymore, just not comfortable...when fall comes and i get bigger then its shopping time

me too, jeans are soo uncomfortable! i love the cotton stretchy gauchos! tonight i almost let it slip, we were out with the in-laws and i showed my sister in law some pictures on my phone, well one was of the digital test, i forgot i had it on there! she was like whats that? conveniently this was five minutes after she asked me when were going to have kids and i had lied saying not for a while! so i just kept going with the pictures and ignored her but she was like, are you? and i said, no, but that we are trying and not to tell anyone b/c my hubby doesn't want anyone to know we're "trying"!!! she is so not going to buy it but hopefully we don't talk for another week until the ultrasound! anyone else have something like this happen? glad to hear you're all doing well ladies!

Jammy said on 8/11/2009 8:02:16 PM Report this post
Nettex, I have 2 boys but both pregs were completely different so from my experience I couldn't tell a girl from a boy based on how the preg goes.
Funny that you all have problems with getting your pants buttoned. I haven't had problems with my pants but my shirts just aren't fitting me anymore! I guess I wear fitted shirts and since my boobs are so much bigger and I have the belly too, they keep riding up and showing off my lovely stretchmarked tummy! I seriously need longer/bigger shirts!!

colombiannana said on 8/12/2009 8:23:37 AM Report this post
My jeans and pant to fit either around the waist so i got the belly band and it is great...i am 10 weeks and my first doc visit with the obgyn is on the 25th which i will be 12w...
i cant wait i hope to hear my baby's heartbeat...i am so excited...my boobs have definitely grown they are so sore and so much fuller...omg i hope i dont grow two cup sizes...

I'm just over 10 weeks and all I have is a gut :( I just can not wait to have a baby bump. I keep feeling my stomach to see if I feel something hard but no luck yet, which of course starts to freak me out. Hoping a nice hard baby bump comes soon!!!

hi ladies, i just got home from my first OB appointment. i'm at 8 weeks. i had the meeting with the nurse a few weeks ago. anyways, today was pretty uneventful. pap smear, pelvic exam, urine, bp, and weight. i told her i was nervous and she said we wouldn't be able to hear much on a doppler today, so i have to wait another week for our 9 week ultrasound! i'm jealous, it sounds like a lot of you have head yours earlier! oh well, i need to be patient! oh and nap, all i have is a gut too! yuck! good luck ladies!

Napolitano said on 8/13/2009 1:07:26 PM Report this post
:) I only heard my baby's heartbeat I had an early ultrasound at only 6 wks! Only heard it for a few seconds, I had to hold my breath in order for the tech to get it, then I started crying cause I had been freaking out hoping everything was ok. Next time I get to really hear the heartbeat is on the 25th, which I can not wait for, I'm so paranoid!

Nettex12 said on 8/15/2009 6:00:24 AM Report this post
Marble- I would have rather waited until 9 weeks because at least then you can see more :) Let us know how the ultrasound goes & send us a link to the u/s.

Nap- Your bump will come! Trust me girl, I have a gut too. My uterus is just really close to the front. But when I don't have my belly band on, it just looks like a gut. When I have it on it looks like I'm freakin 5 months pregnant! God.

& what are you guys calling this month. I'm 11 weeks 1 day, when people ask me how far along I am I just say, (for the past month) I'm in my 3rd month. With my daughter I didn't say I was 3 months , until after I was 12 weeks. So now I'm thinking maybe I should just keep it going & after I hit 12 weeks just say I'm in my 4th month. God, this is weird!

Napolitano said on 8/17/2009 10:57:31 AM Report this post
I thought it was strange but in my book "What to Expect", you aren't in your fourth month until going into your 14th week! So the third month is 5 weeks instead of 4 weeks! Ugh! So it seems like I'll have to wait one extra week until the 2nd trimester. Anyone else who noticed this?

Jammy said on 8/17/2009 12:46:08 PM Report this post
The calendar on this site also shows 14 weeks as the start of the second trimester. I have always considered 12 weeks the start of the second trimester.
So long as noone starts saying that pregnancy is more than 40 weeks, I guess it doesn't really make any difference!!
So when can we expect to feel it move? Isn't it around 16 weeks if it's not a first preg? Only a few weeks until we reach that point!! That is when it gets REALLY exciting!

Nettex12 said on 8/17/2009 4:34:36 PM Report this post
13 wks 3 days is the start of the second trimester.. 16 wks 6 days start of 2nd 3rd trimester At least that's how I see it!! & Jammy hopefully we'll feel our babies by at least 16 wks, (I'm hoping sooner!!) Anything interesting happening for you guys??

had the first ultrasound today! it was so cool, baby looks good, 171 bpm, and its so cute! looks like a little gummy bear! we got pictures and some on cd so tomorrow i'll try to post them! we're excited but still being cautious too! how is everyone else doing?

Jammy said on 8/20/2009 10:08:58 PM Report this post
We told the kids today that they will be getting a baby brother or sister next year and they were over the moon!

I had a doc's appt yest and I was able to hear the heartbeat again so I figured not much was going to change between now (11.5 weeks) and 12 weeks. Probably safe enough to tell people now. Besides, my tummy is starting to stick out and with it being summer, I can't wear baggy enough clothes to hide it! When I eat a big meal, my tummy sticks out enough that my belly button starts to poke out!!

We are going to tell friends + family over the next week. So exciting telling people!

Marble- the baby is so cute!! Awe!

Guys, I'm super nervous today! I go for my Nuchal Translucency Test. I'm 12 wks 3 days. I felt like it would never come... & now I'm freaking out. I had a dream that they told me my child will have Gastroschisis, a disease my first child died from. It feels like an uphill battle dealing with the stress of losing my daughter and now worrying about this little one. Please, WISH ME LUCK! I go at 11. I'll be back to let you guys know how it went & post an ultrasound.

Nettex, i hope it went okay today! i'm sure it's hard, especially with what you went through with your daughter. i hope all will be well with this one...stay positive! you'll be in my thoughts and prayers tonight. i'm sure all will be fine. we opted out of the testing, but now i'm wondering if we should have done it. i think we still have time to tell them we want to, or we might just hope for the best since i'm under 35. it's weird but now i feel like i sort of get it that my mom is/was always worrying about my sister and i! anyway, i hope it went okay today, keep us posted.

HEY!!! Everything went great at the appointment. I was so nervous on my way there, I thought for sure I was gonna throw my guts up! Well, the nuchal fold measured average. And the hole that some of the bowel protrudes from was CLOSED!! My angel had her hand on her brother/sister!! The heartbeat was 151 bpm and my babe was jumping around like crazy! I'm gonna have my hands full with this one! LOL Check out www.ournewaddition.webs.com - I posted the pics on there!!

o & thank you so much Marble!! I'm sure your baby will be just fine, but I don't know how you're resisting the temptation to see her/him!!! GL with any decision you make! xox

So glad everything went ok Nettex. It must have been such a worry with what you have had to deal with before. Strange how the greater the loss we have suffered before, the more we appreciate the blessing of what we have now. I hope you are able to worry a little less through the next 6 months now that you know everything is fine.
Marble - I also opted out of the screening. I don't know why, just did!

Congrats Nettex! I'm so happy for you. I just got my results back from the Down's and Trisomy 21 testing and they were negative. I get tested for Spina Bifida in a coupple of weeks, but that's the one I was worried the least about. I just hope it settles my husband's nerves a little. He hasn't even told people at work yet. I keep teasing them that he's going to be taking calls in the delivery room letting them know that he won't be in the office that day because we're having a baby and that's when they find out!

Wasn't it so cool to watch just how much they're moving around now? Mine waved, stuck it's tongue out, mooned us, and kept sticking it's thumb in his mouth. And no, I don't know if it's a boy yet. I just keep saying he.

Hi ladies, Nettex, i'm so glad it went well! i'm sure you are so much more relieved now!
well ladies i have a question for you, i know you must think i'm a huge worrier, but after seeing the heartbeat last week, i'm feeling really GOOD this week. i'm at 10 weeks and my sickness seems to be going away, i'm not as tired, i wake up with energy, and my boobs hardly hurt at all anymore! i know they say your symptoms go away at about 12 weeks but do you think this could be okay at 10 weeks? i know i should call the doctor, but i don't want to be "that person" who is always calling! how have your symptoms been? thanks ladies, i know i just need to relax! :) also, and i know this is really bad and they say not to do it but i continued to temp my BBT and for the past few days it's been dropping like .1 each day, it was at 98.4 for a while, and now 98.3, 98.3, 98.1, 98.2. i know i should have stopped and i'm going to make myself a nervous wreck!

lol VaBelle- My ultrasound was so quick I barely got to see anything! I was only in there for about ten mins, she said the baby cooperated. Ugh- But we did see it wave & kick back like a somersalt!!

Marble- U gotta chill girl. Stress is NOT good for the baby!! Anyway, I read that 10 weeks is when the levels start to stabilize, so maybe your body is just getting used to the hormone! For all ya know, you could be throwing up again tomorrow! LOL & you need to throw that thermometer out the window! I'm sure everything is fine. You'll be freaking out til your 12 week scan! That's what I did!! GL

Hey my u/s pix are on www.ournewaddition.webs.com

Nettex, thanks for the reassurance, i know i really need to relax! it's so hard though!
i looked at your pics and the baby is so cute! thats awesome that you saw it do a somersault! how cute and i'm so glad it went well for you.
my 12 week appt. cannot come soon enough. its 2 weeks from today so i'm gonna try to relax until then. i'm a teacher though and school starts soon so that will be crazy but maybe it will keep my mind off worrying, lol! good night ladies...ps - i'm so glad we're all so supportive on here, what would i do without this site!

Hey Marble, I have been just as nervous as you!!! Everyone keeps telling me not too stress and everything will be fine. But like you said, it's hard. I've had the same thoughts about some of my symptoms going away and such. Luckily I had my monthly appointment yesterday (finally!) and heard the heartbeat (phew!) Doctor said it sound like it was 160 bpm. I'm 12 weeks 2 days today.

Nettex, I saw your awesome blog - love it! I'd love to do something similar for family and friends. Just been holding off until I knew everything was ok.

Cute baby pics btw, I'm jealous I won't get to see my baby until October because we decided not to do the screening. Keep all the good news coming, very reassuring! =)

Marble - My symptoms started subsiding around week 10. Some came and went, but not as bad as they had been. I'm in my 14th week now and almost all of my symptoms are subsiding. I still feel tired, but not nearly as bad as before. Occasionally I get a burst of energy, but it's definitely short-lived.

Sombody on here said no matter if she was pregnant for nine days, nine weeks, or nine months, she was going to enjoy her time being pregnant with this baby.

Try to relax and enjoy it. The time goes by so fast. It's strange to think I'm in my fourth month already and my hubby has been so worried about something going wrong that I haven't been able to buy anything or I get "the look" when I'm looking at what I want to start registering for. Now that we've gottne the okay from all of our testing thus far, I'm ready to leave him to his worrying and just start enjoying the rest of the time I have left.

Do the same Marble. You don't want to regret it later.

Nettex - Your belly is looking like mine! Cute site. I've been thinking about doing something for my relatives. I'm going to take a closer look at webs.com!

marble33 said on 8/26/2009 3:13:37 PM Report this post
Thank you, thank you, thank you ladies! see that's why i love this site. you ladies are so sweet and i feel much better! i had to go to meetings at work today and i woke up thinking, "i need to be more positive" and be thankful that i am feeling so good. so that's going to be my new outlook! :) another teacher at school is about a week and a half ahead of me and she said at the doctor she heard a few ladies saying the same thing, that they didn't really feel pregnant and the nurses were telling them its totally normal. so ladies i can't let you know how i appreciate the reassurance!
nettex i meant to tell you too, i really like the blog, very nice i wish i was that computer savvy!
vabelle - i know what you mean about not buying stuff, i've been trying to hold off until we find out what we're having but it's fun looking online for registry items - pack n plays, etc...
does anyone have names picked out yet?

oh also, Nap congrats on passing the 12 week mark, and hearing the heartbeat, thats so awesome! your ultrasound will be here before you know it!

So I'm not the only one who worries when I have a day symptom free!! My symptoms have been coming and going over the past couple weeks (since about 10 weeks) and even though I love not feeling like I need to sleep all the time or throw up, I miss the symptoms because they are my reassurance that everything is ok!. I suppose when we know how much can go wrong, it's hard not to worry. But we should concentrate on the positive, not the negative.

Jammy said on 8/26/2009 9:32:37 PM Report this post
Nettex, I just checked out your site! How cool! You are showing more than me! You have that cute pregnant look. I just look like I have gained weight! Can't wait until I look properly preg!

Nettex12 said on 8/27/2009 6:58:21 AM Report this post
LOL of course Jammy, it is a bit of blubber left over from my first pregnancy!!

Marble- I know it seems like FOREVER girl! Is this your first pregnancy?? Now that I'm like having a breezy pregnancy compared to my first, even though I'll only be 13 weeks tomorrow, it does kind of seem like the time that has passed has gone by faster, but how am I gonna make it all the way to my due date!!!!

I can't decide if I'm gonna go pay to have a gender ultrasound at 16 weeks, or just wait for my doc at 19 or 20. UGHH.. I have another appt. on Sept. 23, so I guess I'll ask them then if I can set up my appointment at 19!! LOL But I'll already be 16 wks 5 days. Ugh, I'm so impatient! Anyone else wake up every day watching the discovery health or tlc? I gotta get off these shows!!!

marble33 said on 8/27/2009 9:54:46 AM Report this post
Jammy, yes you are definitely not alone! I talked to my sister today and she said that her symptoms started to go away around this time too. I'm trying to think of it as a good thing, that we're lucky to feel good again!
Nettex, yes this is our first, can you tell, haha! I never thought about paying for an early ultrasound, but if you really can't wait, go for it. I think i'll just make myself wait. this is a lot of waiting girls!!!! then i see how fast my neice has grown and it seems like once they're here it all goes so fast!
Oh and yes, since i've had the summer off i definitely watch the Baby story and and all those shows! it's so funny, but i kind of watch them to see what it might be like although everyone is different! glad i'm not the only one who watches! at least i'll be back at work next week! have a good and healthy day ladies!

hi ladies, i'm checking in again too! we had the 12 week appointment on Tuesday and i was so worried we wouldn't hear a heartbeat since my symptoms lessened at about 10 weeks but she found it right away! this is our first so wow what an amazing experience it was to hear that "whoosh whoosh" sound! so cool, it was at 160 bpm which she said was good and then she said, "do you hear that clicking sound?" and i said yes, thinking what is wrong with me? and she said "that's the baby moving, it's hitting your uterus"!!!! so cool! glad to hear you're all doing well too! my due date is march 24th, we have the big ultrasound on nov 3rd and can't wait to find out what it is!

jsxitzbom said on 9/14/2009 12:36:52 PM Report this post

Hello March Mommys :) I'm 15 weeks today, next appointment is next week. Heard the heartbeat when I was 12 weeks and sound great! I did feel the baby move a couple weeks ago, I was laying on my stomach going to bed and I felt a bubble popping sensation and immediately thought of the baby. Next ultrasound in October, can't wait!! Anyone have a preference for the baby's gender??

Nettex12 said on 9/17/2009 7:06:54 AM Report this post
Hey guys, 15 weeks 6 days today. Found out yesterday that I'm having a little boy. crazzzzzzyy!! He measured 16 weeks 3 days and is soooo active. I feel him move allllllll the time!
