Ticker change- discussion on format

MollyandD

I posted the Friday ticker change today and used the format I copied from the March 2017 group. I was a part of that group before my loss. Is this format ok with you guys?

How far along are you?

How big is baby?

Upcoming appointments this week?

Any new symptoms or changes?

Rants/Raves/Questions?

GTKY:

If you're all ok with it, we can keep it going. It think it's long enough to be fun and short enough to not be "cluttery."

I like it!  Would it be helpful to put at the top: "For those of us with an EDD of 5/5, 5/12, 5/19, 5/26"  I've seen other BMBs do this, might be easier to remind people which date they are in!
I'm looking forward to getting these threads going!  Especially now that lots of ladies are joining!

That's the format I remember from D13 so I'm good with it!

That's the format from my previous BMBs and I think it works well.

Great suggestion. I'll edit the title of the post from today.

Sorry if I sound dumb but why would you put ""For those of us with an EDD of 5/5, 5/12, 5/19, 5/26"?

Would someone who a different DD not participate?

I wondered the same thing too at first but it looks like they would be the ones participating on Fridays as their EDD is on a Friday. I guess someone else would take the lead for other days of the week!

Correct, there would be a check in once a week. Since I am due May 13, I would join the Saturday ticker change, bc every sat I would be a week further.

Each day of the week has their own set of due dates. My EDD is the 19th, which is a Friday. My "ticker" changes on Fridays, so that's when I'll post. You're welcome to post on there if you want to anyway, but most people like sticking with their day of the week best. If there's a GTKY you want to answer, then please jump on in.

This may sound dumb but My Edd is different than the one my doctor initially said. Only by 2 days. Which one are people going with until the official dating ultrasound. Does it really matter? I know it's probably a silly thing to worry about. 
Eta. My edd takes into consideration my lp and cycle length. Hers didn't. 

Format looks good. Thanks

@sarah0985 I'm going by the due date based on my ovulation date, confirmed by temping, until an ultrasound.
