My name is Sarrah, im 22 years old. Me and my fiancé (25) have been together for a littler over 2 years. We defiantly were not expecting to get pregnant this fast, but miracles happen and we are expecting our little monster on May 3, 2016! We both currently work full time and live in one of the many suburbs of Cleveland, with our dogs. Congrats to all you ladies and gentlemen on your new additions. ☺

Hi all! I am Katie from Minneapolis and I'm expecting for the first time at 38! Happy to represent the "advanced maternal age" demographic. I'm due at the end of May-- May 25th. My husband and I recently bought our first home and we have a precious pup named Newton, named after Issac or Fig Newton, whichever you prefer.
I'm Dorothy, 35 years old and from TX! Also trying to be a bit more optimistic, since I have PCOS and have had some issues throughout this pregnancy.
I learned about my pregnancy around Sept. 16, about 3-4 weeks in. So far, I'm about 14-15 weeks along. This is my first baby and he's estimated to arrive around May 27.
So glad to see a lovely community here since I'm a nervous wreck!
I'm Ryan, 28 years old and my partner is Jessica, who is 32 years old. We have three boys already, Aaron, Rhys & Eli (identical twins) and we're expecting our 4th boy on May 7th. We live in Lisvane, Wales.I'm currently pursuing a career as an architect, which would better suit our family life. Jess is a dental hygienist.
Unfashionably late!! I'm Dawn and due with our 2nd boy on 5/7. Hubby and I were married in 2010 and our first son was born in March 2013. We are all super excited!
I'm a little late to join the group because I remember getting sucked into a black hole of unproductiveness on The Bump each time I opened my laptop during my last pregnancy but here I am.
I am 20ish weeks along and am expecting a girl, based on the fetal blood test. We're exited because our other child, who will be 3 in January, is a boy.
I'm also tardy in joining the group although since week 14 I found out about this app through a magazine I got from my OBGYN! It's very cool to read other moms and mom's to be's stories and all! I'm now 17 weeks 5 days along, a baby girl, and my husband and I are thrilled! She kicked for the 1st time Mon Jan 21st! So awesome, she'll be our first
Hi, I'm Jessi and I am also late to join the group. I am 20 weeks and 6 days pregnant with our first child and we couldnt be more excited! Due date is May 11 and we are keeping babies gender a surprise.
I'm Aisha, and a shy latecomer - I've been putting off introducing myself for about 2 weeks now lol, but ah well. I'm 22, will be 23 in a month. I've been married for about the same amount of time that I've been pregnant (one can imagine the curious stares I get from family and friends since I have quite the religious background -_- but ah well). So yes, this is my first pregnancy, and unplanned - my husband and I had made no effort to use contraceptives as we felt just letting things happens would be less complicated. But we really weren't expecting to fall pregnant immediately o.o.
I am now 20 weeks pregnant and so far, things are looking great! Though to be very honest, I am new to literally everything! So I don't know mud, but reading up so far has taught me a lot ^^ still quite naive though and quite clueless on what to expect or what to look out for.. But keeping a positive head!
I think that's enough lol so really looking forward to getting to know everyone and hoping for the best for all of us xD
Hi everyone. I am 31, hubby is 30. Met in college and married in Oct. 2009. This is #3 for us but 1st living child. We had two losses in 2014 and after lots of tests and months of BD finally got pregnant with this little rainbow. Team Pink! Since we are half-way there I am finally feeling ready to jump back onto The Bump. We also have two fur babies 9 and 4. Excited to finally join you all!
Hi Everyone! I'm a little late to TheBump.com game, but here I am!
My name is Sarah, I am 27 years old, my husband is 29 (I am so bad at these bump acronyms by the way!!). 2016 marks 10 years together, 4 years of marriage! We got pregnant in our fourth month of trying - this is our first! My little baby boy is due May 21st, 2016! I am 20 weeks, and that seems a little early for "nesting" but it's definitely happening. All I can think about is Baby-To-Dos, getting my house ready, researching everything in the world, and trying to be prepared as possible!! And it just came at me all of a sudden this week! I am so excited to get involved in this community in the next 5 months!
I took a test a couple of days before my missed period... my husband had been saying he "had a feeling" this was the month, and my painful breasts suggested he was right! I had planned to take the test that day and I woke up at 6am and took it! When it read "Pregnant", I ran upstairs and jumped on the bed and showed it to my husband. We were both SO excited and in disbelief! He is super logical, so of course he required that we wait an additional 10 days before taking another test before he felt 100% It's been a whirlwind since then, I can't believe we're halfway there!
Otherwise, we live in Columbus, OH. We have two tuxedo cats that are also my babies!!
Hello Everyone! Congratulations! I am a little late to the group but...
My name is Kim and I am 28 years old. My husband and I tried for almost a year and finally got pregnant and are expecting our first daughter May 19, 2016. We also have a 3 year old mini dachshund named Pretzel. I am certain that Pretzel knows there is a little one on the way. He started following me around the house around 12 weeks. We live in Erie, PA so I hope our little girl likes the snow!
Hi everyone. My husband (31) and I (30) are expecting our 1st rainbow baby May 29th 2016. We lost our first baby at 11 weeks in October 2014. It took a little time to heal, but we were elated to find out God had blessed us with a second baby a little less than a year later. So far this baby is healthy and we pray it stays that way. We have our 20 week ultrasound next week and can't wait to see our little one. We will however, be waiting until the baby is born to find out what we are having. We can't wait to be parents!
Hi! I've been lurking forever, but I'll finally jump in (and hopefully use a better screen name). I'm due with baby #4 on 5/31. I have 3 boys (10, 8, & one as of Sunday). I'm high risk (blood pressure & blood sugar issues, last baby was born at 35 weeks, hoping to avoid that this time). We're not finding out the sex. I work in non-profits, but am ready to get out & change gears. Anyway, hello! Happy to finally join!
@KAMiller927 Thats so awesome i am from erie pa and going to be moving back soon and having our first little one there so i hope our little boy will like the snow too!!! Congrats!!!
I am a 33 yo (almost 34!) ftm from Connnecticut. My husband and I moved here a little over a year ago from Seattle and I still don't know many people in the area-- it is nice to have this group to share/check in with!
My husband and I have been together for 7 years, married for 4. He has cystic fibrosis which caused some issues for us in the fertility department. We ended up doing IVF and were VERY LUCKY that it worked the first time! I am now 21 weeks with our son
I have been a total stalker of these forums and am excited to actually join in the discussions!

How great for you! My best friend is a CF wife... y'all hold a special place in this world. Best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy!
Hello everyone, Congrats on your pregnancies. I am 27yo in my 9th pregnancy but will only be my 2 living child. My DH and I have had a hard time keeping pregnancies since our first child. I am due may 21, 2016. We are very excited we already have a beautiful 4 yo daughter and we are expecting a son this time around.
I'm a long time lurker on this board but it's time I introduced myself and start participating.
I'm 32 yrs old living in Illinois with my DH of almost 10 years. We have 2 DDs (5 yr old and a 19 months old). I'm due with DD#3 on May 16th, 2 days after DD#2 turns 2. I'm really hoping they don't end up sharing a birthday but we will see.
Hi everyone! I'm Erin, 33, married, & live in Louisiana. I'm a mom to a 3yo son & an angel baby born in July at 24weeks. Imagine our surprise when I weint to the ER 2 days before Chriatmas for what I "JUST KNEW" was appendicitis, only to hear the words "do you know you're pregnant?" come out of the doctor's mouth. Long story short we found out not only am I pregnant I was also 17w 4d! Wow what a Christmas present. We're still in shock & cant wait for my first appointment Monday!!!
Hi! I just found this board but have been on the site a while. Husband, 18mo son, cat and I live in Indiana and are expecting a girl May 2. We have a lot of family birthdays around that time so I'm hoping she comes on May 1 or 2 so she has her own day . We are blessed with two healthy pregnancies (so far) and after having a natural birth at a birth center for my son we look forward to the experience again!
Hello all! I'm Julia, age 24 and will have been married for 3 years come March! Live in saskatoon Saskatchewan! I have PCOS and after only a year of trying am expecting May 4th (anyone else with this date sick of the stars wars jokes? Haha)! My husband (27) and I are super excited and are having a GIRL!

Hi, my name is Autumn. Im from Texas and I'm 18 and my DH is 22. My due date is May 14, and we're having a wonderful baby girl. I also have a handsome 1 year old son with a previous relationship(he's my surprise baby)

Hi everyone! I'm Kate (29) married to my husband Chris (30) and we're from MA. We're expecting our first baby and we found out it was a boy on Christmas Eve! My due date is May 20th, a day after my DH's b-day.
We found out that we were pregnant in August 2015. I looked over this post. I just noticed it 2 nights ago. We are due May 1st. I took 2 pregnancy tests and both positive. My family and I live in Mississippi. This is baby boy #5 and our 6th child. We have 1 daughter.
I know I am super late to the group but still wanted to introduce myself and get involved. DH (30 in March) and I (27) were married June 2010. We have 1 DS who was born on DH's birthday in 2013. We are due May 3! Can't wait to "meet" everyone!
Hello Everyone! I am Molly. My DH and I have been married for a little over a year. Our baby is due on May 9th. This will be our first baby. We are excited yet scared. We had two first trimester miscarriages. It took a while to heal and start trying again. We moved to LA few months back and looking to meet other expecting parents. Pregnancy is such an isolating experience in a new city. Sigh.
Hello from Denver! I'm Cherie. My DH and I got married last May and here we are, expecting our first on May 22nd (the day before our 1 year wedding anniversary)! But this Momma is hoping for a May 15th birthday...my childhood hero's (George Brett-KC Royals) birthday! We're (myself and my cat) looking forward to adding another girl to our house full of boys (Husband, 2 St. Bernards and another cat). Happy thoughts to you all in your pregnancies!
