4 weeks and counting. Found out last week. I had that "woman intuition" that something was different in my body and I decided to take a test. Well 4 tests later, they all said Pregnant. And yes I used all different brands LOL.
My DH was watching a movie with me when I got that "feeling" to test so he actually knew before me. After I used the test, I let it sit in the bathroom for the 3 minutes and made him go get it. He hid it from me for 10 minutes before he showed me! This is both of our first so we're excited and looking forward to our new adventure.
Due Date: 5/1/16 (per the app I downloaded) First Drs appointment is on September 18th!
PS. How do you make a signature with the countdowns?
thanks and congrats everyone!
There are lots of places to get tickers. Just google pregnancy tickers and find one you like. So put it in your signature, you click on your own username and there is an option to change your settings in there to make your signature.
How long did you try to get KU? We have been trying for 6 months.
Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? This will be our first!
How did you tell your SO? I tested this morning and again at lunch because I was in shock. I came home straight from work (I usually go to the gym after). He walked in the door, took one look at me, and said "why are you so smiley?" And then I blurted out "I have something to show you" and pulled out one of the tests. He was very shocked also.
Hi everybody! I am excited to connect with some new moms to offer some advice if needed and to connect with second (or more) time moms on how to balance pregnancy with caring for a toddler.
This was our second cycle trying to get pregnant- gave OPKs a shot this month. Due date May 2nd.
I have one daughter born July 2013.
Unfortunately, I ruined the surprise of telling DH in a fun way, by asking him his opinion if he saw a bit of a line if I held the preg test a certain way. He did. Oh well haha.
Just another little PSA - along with updating your SN from "knottie####', it's always helpful when people have a personalized avatar. It makes it so much easier for everyone to get to know each other!
I'm due May 1st. This will be our second child. My husband was home when I took the test so i just went up to him and showed him the test, and our daughter woke up from her nap and started yelling she didn't want a baby sister or brother!
Hi everybody! Got a BFP this morning at 10dpo and hoping it sticks; I had a chemical in May.
How long did you try to get KU? 5 months Are you a first time mum? If not, how many little ones do you have? Yes
How did you tell your SO? He came into the bathroom to take a shower and I said that my test had a 2nd line. I don't think he believes it yet because of the chemical a couple months ago.
What is your estimated due date? May 8th (though I'm hoping earlier, since my birthday is April 28th and DH's is April 25. I would love it if the baby's was close to ours!)
Hi y'all! We actually were not trying to get pregnant.... Our baby came as a shock but we are nonetheless very excited! I am a first time mom!
I called my SO at work and told him right away due to the shock factor... He didn't believe me the whole day! He thought I was playing a joke on him but when he came home and saw the test he realized he was really going to be a daddy!
Hi, sending prayers to you all for a healthy pregnancy.
We just found out yesterday I took a test and there it was a faint of a line. I couldn't believe it so I took another one today BFP and you can see it way better.
It took us 2months after my miscarriage in May.
I'm not a first time mom I have two girls and one boy.
I put it in his top dresser so when he went to pull out some shorts there it was he couldn't believe it
How long did you try to get KU? For about 6 months. And then we kinda put it on the back burner to finish building our house and move in.. I stopped charting, temping. Then I found out I was pregnant!
Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? I'll be a first time mom (second pregnancy, we lost one at 12 weeks).
How did you tell your SO? Well, because we didn't really expect it- I wasn't "watching" for it? I just noticed some symptoms a bit ago and mentioned them to him- he's the one who told me I should test. So we kinda did it together, nothing cutesy.
@lalala2004 and @DutchLucyLu Congratulations, I've been stalking the TTGP TWW Threads since my BFP and as names I remember I just want to say congratulations.
Happy and Healthy 9 months to all you May ladies.

Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? This is #4 for us both. We have a 5.5yr old daughter 3.5yr old son and 20mo old son.
How did you tell your SO? Last night was our 9th anniversary so I showed him a pic of the pos test. He was excited....I'm a little scared!!
How long did you try to get KU? Within 6 weeks of removing the IUD (I'm being hopeful it's a viable pregnancy. My dr's don't seem concerned)
Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? I have a DD who will be 8yo in Oct.
How did you tell your SO? I wrote out "The only thing better than having you as my husband is our kids having you as their father. Yes KIDS...Carlee and Baby A." and showed him the test. He was shocked b/c it happened very quickly, but was happy and eager to tell family.
What is your estimated due date? I'm guessing May 3rd but have no clue since I haven't had a period. I have to wait until 9/28 to have my first ultrasound.
We tried for 1 month after a miscarriage this past spring and we got it right the first try. I'm a first time mom!! I sent my SO a picture message of the test (we were both at work) and said "that first test was a faint positive.. because this one tells us we've got a baby on the way!!" My estimated due date is May 4th so excited!!!
How long did you try to get KU? Been "try trying" for about 2 months.
Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? I have an adopted son who will be 17 in a couple of months, and I have a 14 month old daughter.
How did you tell your SO? I taped both of the pregnancy tests to the bathroom mirror so he would see them when he came home from work. (works till midnight) I taped a note that said, "Deja vu?" I told him with our first this way...so I thought it would be funny a second time, because the first time was priceless.
App is giving me a due date of April 30 but my doc says May 2 so I think I'll hang out in both the boards for now...May feels right to me though.
We've been trying since September. DH already has 4 older kids from a previous relationship ranging from 13 to 26 but this will be my first. I'm 35 next month and already tired of hearing "at your age..." I thought 30s were becoming a more common prego age.
Hi! Been trying for a year and a half, first round of Clomid seems to have worked! Positive hpk on 8/23, blood test confirmed at on/gyn on 8/24 with hcg of 115. Due date projected for 5/6. Doc wants to check hcg weekly through 8 wks because of past history. First time mom and am so excited and nervous!
My hubby and I have only been trying for a couple months so I'm very excited/nervous! I am a first timer and I got my BFP on Monday, and confirmed it at the doctor yesterday. I was so excited as soon as my hubby woke up I had to tell him he's gonna be a dad. My estimated due date is May 2, 2016 so right after you
Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? I have a DD who is 2 years old
How did you tell your SO? I wish I did something more fun, but I was so shocked when I got a BFP that I could not believe it. I needed a second pair of eyes just to confirm it was positive. It certainly was, and we are over the moon excited!
What is your estimated due date? According to LMP, May 9th
How long did you try to get KU? Three months. My little sister committed suicide one month ago and for some reason we decided to try more actively this month following her death... And there it is. We are hoping for a girl and calling this baby a rainbow baby.
Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? I'm a second time mom. My son will be three in November.
How did you tell your SO? We had just decided a few days before that if I didn't get pregnant this cycle we were going to wait because the grief I'm experiencing is too stressful. I realized I was 14DPO and just had a feeling so I discussed it with him and tested. I told him right away. It took us a day or two to get over the shock but we were up until 3am talking about how excited we are now.
What is your estimated due date? According to when I believe I ovulated it is May 4th.

What is your estimated due date? FF says May 6th. I didn't confirm ovulation with temping. I had stopped temping last cycle due to it stressing me out. I just logged my +opk and CM.

Hi there! My name is Kyllie from Saskatchewan, Canada! I got my first BFP on Saturday 11DPO and then again the next day... I just couldn't believe it.
How long did it take me to get KU? Way too fast lol
Am I a first time mommy? Yes I am! And excited for the adventure.
How did I tell me SO? I had convinced myself all week that what I was feeling was NOT pregnancy. I was silly. It didn't happen that fast, so when I got my BFP I pretty much yelled with my husband asleep in the next room. Cat was out of the bag pretty quick...
My EDD is May 5th!
