Sept 2008 - Labor Day, a whole new meaning

I am being a little proactive here in that I am hoping that this Dec au natural worked for us even thought it has never, and i mean never worked for us before

But seeing that i am 7dpo - and feeling quezzy all day and have had some slight tummy pains - i am praying that it is implantation!

How many other ladies will be joining the month of September?

you gals are so great!

well today is 11dpo and it was a BFN - I will take another test again at 13 and 15 dpo - but really expect AF to show before I get to the test.

I know that Sept will still have a lot of little babies born!!!!! Good luck to all the Sept babies coming and the mommies carrying them

Jess - the Perinatologist taught me last time.....very simple i suppose

with IVF it is 38 wks after ER

with FET 3dt is 37 wks + 3 days

with FET 5dt is 37 wks +1 days

spontaneous is exactly 40 wks from CD1

my CD1 was 12/1 and 40 wks is 9/6/08 !!!!!

they also change the date sometime around wk 16 to "the week of" instead of an exact date. (they did with the twins anyway)

so i think you are 9/5/08 - you have a 5dt right?
