Morning All,
I really can't believe i am typing this but i done a pregnancy test this morning and got my BFP
I am so thrilled and so is hubbie, i haven't stopped crying since i found out.
I just wondering how do i calculate when i am due, my last period started 01st December, so do i count from that date of from ovulation....
I really can't believe that it's finally my turn, we have been trying for 6 months and i really thought that this month wasn't going to be our month either.
I didn't have many symptoms really just AF type cramps for the past 2 weeks, some back pain and nausea (actually i stll have this) but i don't care, i will put up with this for the next 9 months if need be......
I better go and make an appointment with the doc to get it confirmed...

Congratulations

If you last AF was the 1st December, then count 40 weeks from then so that means you are EDD is 6th September.

hi mrs aol... congratulations, u must feel completly elated !! enjoy it!!!
generally u add 9months&one wk from the day of your last period & that should give you our due date but use an online calculater.. maybe try
they have one on the left had side of there home page ( & wil tell you exactly whats happening with your baby , how its developing etc ) ..the Dr will give you your due date based on a 28day cycle but if its usually longer then add a few days for your own sanity ( so your not looking forward to the wrond date & go way over like i did : )
good luck with everything.. rest up & let DH look after all your needs !! brilliant new yr present !!!
all u have to decide now is if u wana go public or private but if you'v a good GP he/she wil explain the differnce & the extra expense ( on top of your insurance ) that private will cost.
anyway ..sorry this is an over load now, like i said ENJOY this time.... your on a life changing train now !! for the better!
