I got my BFP two days ago, a day before my expected period. I know it seems early but my midwife and I crunched all the numbers and this oops baby is due on October 1! Who else is due October?!? I know I can't be the only one!
Actually, you might be in sparse company over here on these Bump message boards. Check the TTGP board for details/history. Approximately 4,750+ users (and counting!) have crossed over to the dark side (****) since 1/13.

Feel better! I was super sick a couple weeks ago. I needed antibiotics. My midwife was not happy about the strong meds I needed but hell I get pneumonia and bronchitis way too easily and I was in rough shape! I'm finally feeling normal, and now MS kicked in last night and I'm feeling pretty cruddy lying here trying to sleep.
Hey everyone! I am OCTOBER 2! My husband and I got pregnant in disney when we were trying to track my ovulation and not get pregnan. We were trying to see the actual ovulation date (I had the Mirena in for 3 years) and then try when we knew for sure when my ovulation date was 100%! Happy surprise. I have a history of miscarriages, but I feel different about this one!

FX for sticky baby! I thought we were in the clear of ovulation as well. Happy this is our oops baby! Congrats!
Congrats to you too! I learned that you could get pregnant for the whole week enforce and after bc sperm can live for 5 days. Who knew! Yes not me, didn't have health class
Evening everyone and congratulations!! I just found out that I am expecting and due October 1st as well. It will be fun to hear from all of you on how your journey is progressing.
That's crazy! My husband and I got pregnant while visiting disney with our 3 1/2 year old! We've been trying for one year and the month we thought we'd give it a break, baam. October 3rd is our due date! Congratulations!

Lurking from A'15 and your use of "oops baby" is nauseating. And frankly, a slap in the face to those that have been intentionally trying to get pregnant for years. Might wanna choose your words a little better, next time.
Hello all! Nice to "meet" you! I do believe I am also due October 1st, and as my first was 5 days late, I'm guessing I belong here! I have a 2 year old little dude, and DH and I are thrilled this new little peanut is coming to join us, I'm still a little panicky about adding more chaos to our house! I'm sure some of you other mommas can relate!

I am not having an "opps" baby. My husband and I have been trying for years! We were forced to get the Mirena due to health conditions and miscarriages. I was told I could be infertile and to track ovulation for one-two months since December (removal of Mirena). We mourned and our disney trip was to get our minds off of the possibility. Then wham, when we weren't even trying (just tracking). So do not assume mean women with comments. She might have been doing the same in tracking ovulation in order to TTC and opps means happy surprise. You can't blame someone for being happy about finally getting their wish.
How is everyone else feeling? I made my appointment but it isn't until 9 weeks. I am nervous!
And sorry OCTOBER bloggers. Those two comments made me mad. Never feel ashamed about your words. We are here to support each other, no matter whether you were TTC or have a happy surprise. After thinking I was infertile for over three years, I understand that women who want a baby (like me) cry with every pregnancy announcement, birth announcement, or baby commercial. I was one of those women. But there is no, no, no reason for hurtful comments and assumptions! So I say it loud and proud, I am pregnant and it was my disney surprise! I pray it continues to grow inside of me healthy, for I love it all ready!!
My question is why are A15s posting on this board? Go take your snark back to your own board. We are just starting to get to know each other, we don't need that negativity here.

You should take your own advice and not "assume" that we have not struggled to conceive either. I, too, struggled for years through multiple miscarriages to get to where I am now. And happened to conceive this baby while taking a break from TTC, after having been told by my doctors that I "will never be able to conceive and carry a child." So when I speak of my surprise, I call it just that... a surprise blessing. Or our rainbow baby. The general stereotype tied to the phrase "oops baby" was that it was accidental. Some people don't take well to being told their conception was an accident. My mother was told she was an oops baby, and she did not take that well. Had the phrasing been delivered with more tact, she probably wouldn't have such self worth issues. Hopefully this is a term that your child won't hear in reference to themselves.

Also, you called it a happy surprise, which is great.
And don't assume that I wasn't someone who didn't cry with every birth announcement, diaper commercial, etc. Trust me, I definitely did. My little sister got pregnant and announced the day after I was told I couldn't have children. So don't assume I'm just a big bad wolf. Been there.

Obviously you did not read my comments correctly, for I was not assuming anything. Clearly stating do not assume you know others and their situations, and do not ridicule others for their choice of words. All in all, I was sticking up for both sides. This subject should be dropped, we should be discussing our pregnancies, our happiness, our worries, and our growth.
Lurking from August 15 but posting just to give encouragement. If you get people over here trying to junk up your posts, you can click on their icon/avatar and ignore them. Hope this helps. Congratulations, welcome and good luck ladies.
Be the Change. Make no assumptions Take nothing personally Be impeccable with your word Do your best
If you hit the icon on the top left that looks like a bust or man's head n shoulders that will take you to preferences. from there you can opt to not see signatures with gif in them. Unfortunately it doesn't get rid of gif in the post but it does shorten the board considerably and makes reading easier.
