I'm not on here as often as I used to be BUT I did just see the August 2014 board has been posted. Crazy that we are all coming up on a year of finding out we were pregnant! Do you remember what day it was?
I got my BFP December 13th. We're pretty sure E was a Thanksgiving day surprise

"If you're still my small babe or you're all the way grown, my promise to you is you're never alone. You are my angel, my darling, my star...and my love will find you, wherever you are."
We got out bfp on Nov 28. It was super faint at first, but kept getting darker. We had been trying for a couple years and took clomid so we had been monitoring the cycle. Can't believe it;s almost been a year!
I didn't have a great experience with mine. I don't remember the exact date of when I took my test, I think it was the first week of December? I got a positive, was all happy and it was exciting. A week or so went by and I started to bleed, I went to the hospital and they did an exam and told me I had a miscarriage. Of course I was super upset. I guess the sent my blood work in and on New Year's Eve my doctor called me and told me I was pregnant and the hospital screwed up. Went and had more blood tests just to be sure and everything was great
We didn't get a bfp until 12/27... I never tested because we were told that I didn't ovulate in November or December... Liars!!
Married DH : 7/7/12; 3 fur babies (2 dogs and 1 cat) DS born 9/3/13; DD born 7/22/15; LO due 5/28/18 FS (age 5) and FD (age 2) to become AS/AD very soon!
I wish I remembered the date. It was not long after Halloween, my boss always says I got pregnant on Halloween. I was dressed up like a witch, so he jokes and says I flew in the room on my broom and conceived LO that night. Lol!
December 11. I remember buying the test because my boobs were killing me, I was slightly nauseated, and I was a couple days late. Can't believe it's been almost a year!
I was at my little cousins wedding! I was upset because all of their wine tasted like it had gone "bad". I switched to margaritas and even they just didn't taste right. Finally after a rather unpleasant champagne toast I realized it may not be the booze that was the problem. The following Monday I picked up a test on my way home from work and was floored when it came back +. DS1 was 6 months old at the time.
What did you do on 12/12/12? That was the question I saw on fb that prompted me to buy a test. I was only a day late according to the app I was using to predict when my periods would come. Tyler was a Thanksgiving weekend baby.
December 10th. My husband was at a concert for the night, so I drew a bath and poured a gigantic glass of wine. (Pregnancy test on Dec. 8th was negative.)
Took one swig and thought, "Well, maybe I should take another test just in case." And that was the last wine I had for ten months.
November 19...I had woken up feeling queasy for the third day in a row. Took the test on a whim. It was unexpected and what a shock! I had to lie down a second and was almost late for work.
December 21st. I felt nauseous and figured I would check before work since I had a test in the closet. I think I took about 6 tests cause I didn't believe it!
I found out NYE (A Sept mom with a RCS in Aug). I got heartburn from a pretzel and the only other time I had heartburn is when I was pg. Decided to take a test that night since I knew I wasn't going to be drinking anyway.
I also tested because if it came back pregnant it worked out perfectly for my number self. I was pregnant in 2009, 10, 11, 12 and 13 (8/17/09-2/1/10, 6/27/10-2/21/11, mid dec 2012-8/26/13)
BFP 12/23. It was hard to keep secret because I am not known to turn down a drink at the holidays. We told our parents and siblings, but I remember secretly pouring out a beer bottle and refilling it with water all night at the big family party.
Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
We weren't trying, but we weren't not trying, and we'd been particularly careless during a trip to Hawaii at the beginning of November. I took a test on Thanksgiving because I teared up three different times while cooking in the morning (twice during commercials and once during a Today Show story about a cancer survivor dancing with the Rockettes). That one was negative. The next day we left for a family funeral in Boston. The day before we flew back I noticed my breasts were super sore. That Friday, Nov. 30, on a whim, I took another test before work. Surprise! I actually went to my doctor for confirmation because I didn't believe the home test. In fact, I think I'm still in shock despite the fact that I had to wipe spit-up off my sweater before I left for work this morning.
ETA: The funeral was my husband's grandmother. Baby girl got her name as a middle name.
November 26th. We were about to go on vacation and I wanted to know if I could drink so I tested like 3 days early and it was a faint positive. Didn't drink and tested like 50 million more times.
Took the test Dec. 10th and as soon as the pee hit it the test line was the first to show up nice and dark. Put it in the Christmas tree and when DH got home told him to check out the new ornament. One of the best days of our lives. We were NTNP and it was only my second cycle off the pill we had no clue we would get pregnant so fast since both me and DH have had medical issues that could effect our fertility. Told our family on Christmas Eve. Ahhh the memories...

Your post made me realize that I was pregnant in 08, 09, 10, 11, 12 & 13! Technically I was pregnant twice in 2011 & 2012, because I had a surprise BFP early January that ended in a miscarriage. That's crazy.
I got my BFP on Nov 28th. What a difference a year makes!
December 17 was our first positive at home test. We were shocked because I had been on the pill and I only have one ovary that ovulates. We got the doctor confirmation on NYE.

My LMP was Oct 31, we had sex one single time on Nov 9, I O'd somewhere around the 12th, ran a half marathon on the 18th, and got my BFP on the 29th.
We found out we were having twins on Dec 21st, when I was 7w2d.
November 11th! I got my BFP at 10 DPO. A few minutes later I got the call that my grandpa had a heart attack and passed away.
It was a day of such mixed emotions.
ETA:: Ok, Dec 5th! Nov 11th, wow. lol
So who is going to be the first one to write the drippy "I'm from august 13..." Post on the aug 14 board?
There's always one.
I got my BFP on Nov 28th. What a difference a year makes!
