@mrsphillips610‌ There is a way now to change your name but I'm not 100% sure of it. I think you just have to go to theknot.com and it's in the settings there. If you use the mobile app, you'll probably need to delete it and reinstall it after you change names though to make it take effect.

@shelles423‌ I love Chattanooga! Memphis is not very crunchy-friendly at all, so I know what you mean. It's hard to even find a doctor here who doesn't think natural birth is evil. We do have a fabulous small community of likeminded mamas though. Hopefully you can find something like that there!

Hello. I'm Marissa, 21 years residing in Kauai, Hawaii. I am a FTM at 23 weeks with a healthy boy Due May 29th. His name with be Calvin and his middle name will be Henry like his father (currently engaged) and grandfather/father's father's. So far all things check out great Calvin is growing right to date and development/tests have come back normal :x .

I've been around since I found out I was pregnant at 6 weeks but haven't really posted, you could call me a lurker. My phone broke a little over a month ago and I haven't been on TB since. I enjoy reading each post and seeing the advice and input everyone has to say. It's nice to be back and feel like I'm going through a normal pregnancy. I look forward to posting more and contributing to this May 2015 community.

Congratulation & welcome to everyone on your pregnancy. I wish everyone a healthy and smooth sail through this miracle of life.

Hi I'm Jessica, STM been here from the beginning.  I'm not on a lot due to life and getting annoyed with the app so I might check stuff online at work.  I'm a high school math teacher at an alternative school in MN.  Currently I'm struggling with liking my job and can't wait for baby boy to make his appearance so I can get out.  Due May 10 and his name will be Micah John.  

I don't post much and am super forgetful so I have a hard time remember who people are, usually recognize by siggys.

Hi! I'm Lauren and my baby girl is due May 4. I've been around since August but don't post often. I probably still won't, but figured I would introduce myself for those few times I do. I live in Michigan and am ready for spring! This little one is much anticipated as we've tried for 5 years. I am so thankful for Gods timing, as I look back at our journey and realize how unprepared we would have been before now! I'm hoping these next 3-ish months fly by!

emwaiting

I am Emily and I will be having a schedule c-section sometime the last week of May we are thinking right now.  This is #2 for us and we have a 17 1/2 month old son right now.  We are team green as we were for our son as well and love waiting for the surprise.  I am about 23 weeks right now and feeling good so hopefully it continues that way.  I was lucky and felt pretty darn good with our son all the way through.  Good luck to everyone.

GoldChristi

My name is Chrissy. Due May 2. I'm currently living in SLO town, California but will be moving home to Denver soon after tiny is born. I'm 28 and a FTM to a little boy. It's been an un eventful pregnancy so far (thank goodness) but I'm starting to feel all around pregnant and exhausted!

I work in a busy steakhouse and my feet are starting to double in size after every shift! I'm not used to being limited and I'm trying to be less stubborn at work and ask for help when I need it but it is so hard!

My BD (baby daddy) and I have settled on the name Atlas Chance, last name starts with E. Little baby ACE! We can't wait until he is here. Now life is all about birth plans and hospital tours and belly oils.

I'm nervous about moving from CA to CO with a 3 week old tiny but we have no option. My anxiety gets the best of me sometimes but when that happens I just get myself some ice cream and a sappy movie to cry with and trust that life will find it's way.

Thank you for flipping this into a positive community. I was always too nervous to post anything because I didn't want to feed into the drama filled environment before. I'm excited to have all this positive support through our third trimesters and beyond!

chavez2685

Courtney 29, have two kids and a step daughter 1 boy 2 girls. I'm 24 weeks almost 25 along with a boy, Jameson Samuel. We live in a very small town out in west Texas, less like 1800 people. My husband is in the oilfield industry so works 2 weeks away from home then is off and home 2 weeks. I'm blessed to get to stay at home with kids and play referee, cook, do laundry, drive kids to karate and ballet. and I must say, this "new bump" is nicer! I posted like twice before and gotta major flamed for something I felt was not even close to necessary.

Hello! I'm L.... I am 25. Also a FTM in Southern California and my due date is May 4th! Hoping she'll come in April though! We are having a girl and her name will be Grace Vivian Adele. (She'll have two middle names like I do!) super excited about hitting the 27 week mark this Monday, and ready to be in my third trimester! Starting to have lots if sleepless nights because I'm a back sleeper normally Currently freaking out about not having the nursery done and what to wear to my shower. Currently excited about preparing to stop teaching Kindergarten for a year to stay home and enjoy my little one. Super thankful for the opportunity. How are you ladies doing? Have you had showers yet?! Nice to meet you all </p>

Thanks!! I love the name Grace and we debated it at as a first name. I had wanted to use Ann as a middle name after my grandmother but none of the first names we liked were hitting the mark for us. ( we like Grace, Hazel, and Emilia) So my grandmother suggested Emilia Grace and we loved it! So even though she won't have my grandmother's middle name it will still be special because my grandmother helped name her.

Hi everyone! I've been lurking for while and decided it was finally time to say hi! I'm 26 and a FTM due May 1 and we are team green! My DH and I can't wait to meet our little jelly bean! Only 12 weeks to go

Hello all! I'm Lauren, 31 y/o FTM with a little girl on the way, due 5/16/15. Her name will be Alice Renee.

alehr922

Hi! I've also been a lurker since I was about 5 weeks. I have always been too shy to post as well, but since so many others are introducing themselves now, I decided I should too! I am 26 and due May 29 with baby number 2! Our daughter is 17 months old, named Attalyn Grace. We are team green! If it's a girl, her name will be Evelyn. Still trying to decide on a m/n. If it's a boy, we like Emersyn Reece or Reece Emersyn, not sure which way to go!

Parenturownway

STM, due May 10th. Second girl (Heidi Louella) Glad to see bump got better! Sorry I can't upload avatar. Fully mobile till computer gets fixed. Anyone know if I can change it on iPhone? I can't find out how. I was a member of the nest a while back. Joined the bump in September, and couldn't believe the nastiness! So much better now! Good luck ladies

jodi1008

Hi, I've been in this group since the beginning and only posted a few times because I was nervous about saying the wrong thing and getting back lash. I haven't been on much because of it but I'm happy to have come back and seen the positive change My husband and I both have a son from previous relationships so this is our first together and it's another boy lol. My husband is in the army so it will be me and the boys for a while waiting for daddy to come home for good. My due date is May 27 but he's measuring a week early so we will see what happens

jmorneau09

Hi all. I've been on since finding out I was pregnant but was unwilling to join the drama. Now that things are calming down I'll introduce myself.
I'm Jaime. STM due may 21st with a boy. Though we doubt he will stay in that long. I seem to cook big babies so we will probably take him a week or two early. My fist was a week early and 10lb 6oz. Newest LO is measuring two weeks big as of now so we will see.
I'm a teacher and enjoying sharing my pregnancy excitement with 28 little people who love to talk to baby.
Looking forward sharing this experience with you all.

We tend to cook bigger babies too! I was induced at 39 weeks with my last three to avoid any complications. This LO at my last scan was measuring a week ahead even though we are exact on the dates. Lol
I will most likely be checked again at 37/38 weeks.
