Guess the Due Date! Mar 17
There’s a new game in town, it’s called “Guess the Due Date”—it’s all the rage. What’s your guess?
(We’ll update you with the “official” date after the ultrasound!)
I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.

Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.

I believe there are three types of women: (1) those who suspect pregnancy three days before their expected period; (2) those who suspect pregnancy three days after they miss their period; (3) those who suspect pregnancy after the third trimester when they already look three months pregnant- I guess EDD September 12th. Either that or you’re like me- you pop out about three minutes after the positive pregnancy test! LOL!

Looks like twins to me.

@Angela: Danica literally has know idea how far along she is.
@Diane: We wish (well I do anyway), but I think she’s
@Danica: Sorry babe for posting this photo without your consent ;)

I still maintain that based on pictures from last pregnancy, Danica is 8-10 weeks along, putting us most likely in the 20s of October!
March 18th, 2008 at 8:25 am
Yep, this one looks like it’s been in the bun warmer for a little while!
Ummm, my guess is Aug. 19. And I’m also thinking you’ll start feeling the thrill of it all and less the yuck of it all now. You are beautiful!

Hey, Ry– maybe on your birthday?!?! :)
(You should post the 14w picture from with Jameson so people have a frame of reference before guessing. I think I have an unfair advantage currently. :)
March 18th, 2008 at 8:26 am
Oh— I was just about to write, Ry’s birthday too (not to copy Brietta’s post above)– October 20th! Based on your sickness, I would guess you to be into 8-9 weeks by now. To be fair to the game, I will say October 22. Best Wishes!

who knows?
but whenever this little pea-in-the-pod arrives, we will throw a party.
(Jameson will be a big brother!!)
March 18th, 2008 at 9:43 am
Well by the looks of that belly we can safely say it won’t be on my birthday, November 22nd. So let’s go with October 11th.
March 18th, 2008 at 10:51 am
Ummm….October 15th?
March 18th, 2008 at 11:38 am
Here’s Danica with Jameson at 14 weeks.
March 18th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
I was also going to guess about 8 weeks based on the first trimester yuckies just starting to kick in. What a cute pregnant woman you are, Danica!!! My pregnancy with Shiloh was the first one that I diligently took pictures throughout the whole thing. I’ll have to show you sometime :-)
March 18th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
I’m guessing September 21st! And Danica-you have an adorable baby belly!
March 18th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
Also note: Danica’s mom is a twin. And this belly happened literally in three days.
:)

Since this is #2, I don’t think it’s twins, but just that she’s showing sooner. Auntie Sarah’s prediction…she’s 10 weeks and therefore, her due date is 10/18/08…and I think it’s a girl - while we’re guessing! 18th babies rock! And twins would be so cool!
March 18th, 2008 at 10:28 pm
my guess is october 27 and one baby that will be very long.
March 18th, 2008 at 11:51 pm
Considering you look just like me I’ll go with my due date: October 11th!!
March 19th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
What I meant was that I’m always so surprised when someone doesn’t realize they’re pregnant for a while. I’m just different I guess. I’ve always known by 5wks along. I can’t imagine pooching out like that and having just found out. But then again, I’m a tubby tummy and wouldn’t know the difference anyway.
Definitely a very CUTE preggy tummy!
March 19th, 2008 at 8:11 pm
twins ARE all the rage… we’re doing it… J-Lo did it… :)
March 20th, 2008 at 12:07 am
My older three kids are thinking that I really am defective in some way.
They really, really wanted twins again and well, I didn’t deliver. So I’ve lost my touch- WoW. Like I need this added pressure!
Danica, since I never remember seeing you pregnant for Jameson, but did see the photo posted above, I will guess September 20th.
Fall really is my favorite season!
P.S. We’re having a girl…due July 9th!
March 20th, 2008 at 12:48 am
Hey Danica I will guess October 17th :) You look so cute!
March 20th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
I guess you are about 10 weeks along… and I am too lazy to figure out when your due date is from here.
When will you let us know? I am wondering and wondering!
My daughter is trying to microwave something. Hmm. I better go!
March 21st, 2008 at 1:02 pm
My guess is,October 12th.
By the way…you (and baby) look adorable!
March 21st, 2008 at 10:33 pm
okay, I get a second chance. I was realizing my first guess was waaayyy off! But I didn’t think I showed THAT much early on! Putting all the yuckies into the picture, I will guess Oct. 2. Just can’t be any later than that! What a fun contest!
