Hi there! New to TB. Still learning all the acronyms.. This will be our 4th pregnancy(1st time using IUI). We had an ultrasound at 5 1/2 weeks, giving us a dd of 7/5! We've had last 3 losses to pProm @18 wks, spontaneous loss at 12, then ectopic:( hoping this nugget will stick. My beta was 420 at 2 weeks from IUI, 16000 at exactly 3 weeks! They think there were twins based off the high levels, but possibly lost one already.
Hey everyone I just got BFP on Friday after TTC for 11 months! This is my first pregnancy. I have battled PCOS & Endo for several years, having two surgeries and hormone therapy. I was beginning to think that we weren't able to conceive because of my medical history. Thursday night I realized my period was due the next day and I hadn't had my normal cramps leading up to it. So I tested Friday morning and got a very faint plus. Later in the day I purchased a digital one and it confirmed for me. So my EDD should be July 16th according to TB calculator!!!! However, yesterday and today I have felt strong pressure in my lower abdomen. Is that normal after a positive test (and therefore after implantation)?
Hi everyone! My EDD is July 2, 2015. This is my first pregnancy after being diagnosed with PCOS. This is my first time on TB. Congratulations to everyone here!!
Hello Everyone! My EDD is July 8th and this is my first. Haven't really been active on the bump overall except to read a few articles here and there. Got our BFP on Halloween after TTC for 8 months and an HSG test. I think the HSG test helped us get to our BFP because I was not ovulating previously. Such a crazy transition because I had just been mentally prepping to face the reality of infertility treatment.
Am beyond excited to start this new journey with my DH.

Hi! EDD is 7/16/15. This is our 2nd and we're so excited! DS is 2.5. I was active on his BMB (March 2012) until we moved over to FB. I'm still active there now, but totally glad to have a new board with all of you.

Hi all! I am tentatively due July 19th with #3. It's a somewhat surprise... we've been trying for over a year with a MM/C back in April that turned out to be a Partial Molar Pregnancy (which is very rare, 1%). Couldn't get PG for 6 months following that and had to be checked to make sure the "mole" didn't turn cancerous. I just got cleared to TTC again and it turns out I ovulated early and got PG just before getting cleared. Thrilled, but very nervous!
CP 3/07 BFP 5/07 - Kylie born 2/08. BPF 2/09 - Alexandra born 10/09. TTC since 8/13 - diagnosed difficulty conceiving due to LP defect. Took vitamin B and Vitex Berry to help lengthen. BFP 2/14 - Missed M/C found at 8.5 weeks. D&C at 9w2d. Partial Molar Pregnancy. BFP 11/14
EDD July 14th. Been TTC for 15 mths. Four early MC. 4 weeks 5 days today and feeling better than with the others. Funny how feeling better means more symptoms so I can say feeling crappier but I like it. Lol First beta was only 11 then 48 then 163 then 470. Very excited. Hope to get to know you ladies over the next 9 months. First baby and so thrilled
So excited to finally get to post! My husband and I have been trying for 5 months, still feels unreal and probably won't fully believe it until I hear the heart beat. EDD July 20th. Congrats to all❤️❤️
EED of July 11, which is great because its the month of my birthday, my husband's and our anniversary! This will be our first, and I've just joined The Bump today
Hi ladies! My Edd is July 20th, this will be my 4th and final baby! Dd #1 12 yrs. dd #2 6 yrs. and ds just turned 1 oct. 29th! I've been on bump since feb of last year when I found out ds was on the way!
EDD is July 17th. This is our first and we are both very excited and nervous. Ok I'm more nervous than he is. He keeps talking about how fun Disney will be with a new bambino/a
Congratulations to you all and I look forward to chatting with you along this journey.
Hi Ladies, I'm new here. As part of my introduction, I MUST share this miracle with you all. On Oct 23rd I had an appt with my RE to discuss "next steps." The month prior I had an FET that did not take...2 months prior to that I had an FET that did take, yet ended. Anyhow...back to my story. Ironically...my RE brought it to my attention that the day I was there (oct 23) was ALSO the same day when I FIRST came to see him a year prior to begin my relationship with the clinic...WOW. But that's not it!! The synchronicity continues! The next steps I went to see him about was to do an IUI with donor sperm. My DH at the time when he first had his sperm analysis done came out low in all areas...low enough that it was recommended to go straight to IVF, plus ICSI. I ovulate regularly and have regular 28 day cycles...we talked and we decided together that this has been a long taxing (over a year journey)...and the goal is to have a baby so my DH was not thrilled but "ok" with the donor sperm decision. So the RE told me that I could do a natural cycle, told me how to order the sperm...gave me some diagnostic texts blood draw forms , (wanted to do my levels again FSH, AMH and CMV status neg/pos for donor matching) ...and then he asked me when my period was scheduled to come...I told him Wednesday the 29th of Oct (remember I'm very regular and always have 28-day cycles and I use an app on my phone that correlates with my cycle) anyhow...he told me to call when it came and come back for a baseline US and all. Wednesday came...no AF...Thursday came...no AF...Friday morning came...no AF...but ladies...I took a test and I'm pregnant naturally!! 1 year of trying...strategically TTC on ovulation days...and what the docs said COULD NOT happen AFTER one fresh IVF and 2 FET's...multiple hysterscopies etc AND was days away from ordering donor sperm for an IUI that would have taken place 14 days after my period...and we are pregnant naturally!! Took my beta hcg later on the morning of the 31st after racing to their office...I "guesstimate" since on my calendar I ovulated on the 15th that...implantation occurred approx 7 days later?? Which is approx the 22nd...so perhaps from the 31st I was 9-10 days past ovulation. My beta was 232. My RE called and was amazed. I did next beta on Tues. (4 days later) and it was 1856. My DH and I are ecstatic...there are no words really to describe these circumstances and synchronicity of this other than "miraculous." It is my wish that everyone reading this remains focused and see it happening! God has the final say...always believing in his miracles!! Today I'm 5 weeks and 4 days with a July 8th due date...feeling blessed!
Hiya! EDD is July 18 (also my hubby's bday!) This will be our first. We live in Florida and have been married for almost 1.5 years. I used to post on TTGP but fell off because we decided to postpone TTC until next year. Then, surprise! BFP!
Hello, my EDD is July 15,2015 and this is my second. My current child is 8 y/o....my husband and I had tried for two years (since she was 6) with no luck...finally gave up and put the IUD back in...got the urge to try again about 5 months later, snatched the IUD out...and here we are!! This will be my first pregnancy with Lupus and rheumatoid arthritis...high risk indeed...I was diagnosed a few months after my first child was born...I'm super excited and worried due to medications that were stopped so close to conception... Also I work full time and I am working on my masters degree and this fatigue is more serious than I remember from 8 years ago, when I was young and healthy! Anyway, I've only been on this thread...last pregnancy involved no threads or communities...I am a little lost with some of these abbreviations such as "dpo, ds" etc. Hints are appreciated! Best wishes to all!

Hi! My names Nicole and I just found out I'm pregnant with my second child. My last child was born 10 yrs ago so I feel like I'm new to all of this again. I'm very nervous to get through my first trimester. I've suffered from miscarriages prior to my first child so I'm anxious. I'm so excited to be pregnant! Congrats to everyone!
My name is Linda. My EDD is July 2nd! This will be ny forst but my hubbies 3rd. We have hos two children full time. Busy busy household! This is the only site I have joined so far!
Hello! My name is Kaitlyn and I'm expected to have my baby on July 14, 2015. I'm 22 years old and this is my first pregnancy. My first pregnancy test was taken at 3 weeks and was positive but the second line was pretty light. I took a second test a week later and it turned positive before I could even flip the stick up to see the result.
I'm so excited and can't even fathom everything that has happened. I've already been to the doctor and had a confirmation visit and had a vaginal ultrasound. The ultrasound basically just looked like a big black hole.
I'm sure I'm only pregnant with one baby but I'm still curious to see if I'm pregnant with twins. Fraternal twins run in my family and the nurse who worked me up seemed surprised I had a positive test at 3 weeks (which I hear it's common with twin pregnancies). My next ultrasound is in 11-25 and it can't come soon enough.
Anyways, I'm very excited to be here as you can see!
