    Hello! I'm a soon-to-be Mom of Three. We recently became pretty sure we wanted a third when this little one popped up. Fun Fact - All three of my kids have had the same EDD!
    Thats crazy! This baby and my DD1 have a due date 1 day apart.  Aparently you and DH are all about the November romance!  What years were your others born?

  • HI all!! My name is Leslie and I have a 15 month old son.  I got my positive test 12/6 with an EDD of 8/19.  Look forward to getting to know everyone!
  • Hi all! I'm Amanda and I live in NY :)

    I just moved over from July after my first ob appt. I am 7 weeks and due August 4th, original due date was July 29th from my DLP. I am 28 and this is my first baby! DH and I had been trying for 16 months and suffered 2 MMC's. Just when I was about to book an appt with my doctor for testing I got my BFP on 11/27! I am still really nervous to get excited but trying to take it one day at a time..

    So far I've been nauseous, exhausted and moody off and on. I have tender breasts and a heightened sense of smell.. Sometimes that triggers the nausea :(

    Our first appt went well! My doctor got us an U/S and we were able to see our little peanut with a heart rate of 130 :) instant love! Still can't believe it!

    I'm looking forward to sharing this journey with all of you lovely ladies! Wishing you all a happy and healthy pregnancy!
  • So excited to join you!! I've been lurking hoping to join, and now I can!

    My DH and I have been trying for a year, and have been so sick of getting negative tests that we waited till a week late because we assumed it would be bad news! Still can't believe it! Due date is 8/17. We have a four year old son who will be 5 in August.

    Congrats to everyone!!

  • Hi everyone!

    I'm Megan from PA.

    Got my BFP the other day, Due Date: August 26.

    I have a DD who is just about 5 and a DS who is 11 months.

    I was thinking about staying away from groups this time, but then I thought this may be challenging with such a little LO in the house.

    Pleased to meet all of you.

    I go lurk some now.
  • Hi! My name is Kathleen. My Fiance and I are expecting our Bundle of joy around August 11 or 12. This is my second child and his first. My first son is 10 and starting over is rather nerve racking but we are super excited!! Congratulations everyone!!
  • *loss mentioned*

    Hi everyone, we were thrilled to find out this week that we are expecting again. I have a daughter who is 2.5.  I was pregnant this summer, but miscarried in late September at 11.5 weeks.  Looks like EDD for this baby is Aug 28.

    Some other things about me: I'm Canadian, 33, a lawyer, and a crafter.  Although I am a bit of a book snob, I love crappy tv.

    Please send sticky baby vibes!

    BFP #1: 08/17/2012  DD1 born 05/01/2013

    BFP #2: 07/31/2015  M/C 09/23/2015 (11.5 weeks)

    Hi ladies! Congrats to everyone :) I've been lurking the past week bc we have been trying for 14 cycles with a m/c and chemical pregnancy in there too so I've been super cautiously optimistic but I am just past 5 weeks now and feeling pregnant so praying I have my rainbow baby after it all! We had four failed IUI cycles and were ready to move on to IVF in the spring so we are so happy!

    I have a 2 yr old son and our EDD is 8/18

  • Good morning!

    I got my BFP yesterday and am pregnant with our 4th child. We have an 11 yr old daughter, a 6 yr old son, and an 8 month old baby girl. This was quite the fun surprise since I have never gotten pregnant so close together before but we are all very excited. EDD = 8/24/2016.

    I had a phone consultation with the doctor today, getting blood drawn tomorrow, then my first actual appointment is 01/15/2016.

    My EDD is August 13th. My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage at 11 weeks. I was 40. I am now 41 and due to my age decided to get some help to make this happen faster... One IUI and we are pregnant. We are very excited and hoping our bundle of joy will arrive this time. My first ultrasound is 12/21.

  • Hi all!
    I'm no stranger to the bump, but not nearly as active as I used to be.  Just found out on Tuesday that I am pregnant with #3.  WOOT WOOT!  My oldest just turned 4 and I also have a September '14 babe.  Yay for 2 under 2!  Looking forward to getting to know you!

  • Hi ladies! My name is Emily. We are around five weeks pregnant and think our EDD is August 20th (we have our first doctors appointment at the end of January). This will be my husbands second child but my first biological child (I love my step-daughter). This little one will be 11 years younger than his/her big sister. I am dying to spill the news but trying to hold out until I make it past the first trimester. Congratulations to everyone!

  • Hi girls!

    I can't believe how many of you have also experienced miscarriages, but are out there trying again and staying positive. <3 this is my second pregnancy. I lost my first baby in May at 14 weeks having suffered a septic miscarriage. It was 3 days in the hospital on heavy antibiotics, and a D&C, and never finding out what made me so sick. Luckily I have an amazing doctor that I trust. He said a septic miscarriage is extremely rare and he wouldn't tell me to worry about it before or after that. So, now that I find myself at 5 weeks pregnant when I could have had a 4 week old, I'm trying not to be terrified every moment!! I think I'm doing pretty good.

    My EDD is August 17. My birthday is August 15 and I've always wanted a Leo baby like myself, so I'm taking that as a sign that this little nugget is going to make it!!
  • Hey guys!!

    My name is Megan and I'm 26 (husband is 28) and this is my first pregnancy! We have been trying for 5 months and our due date is August 15th. I got my bfp yesterday so now we're scrambling for ideas to announce to our families on Christmas. Is this real life?? I'm a def a dirty lurker but I'm excited to be a part of this group. Good luck everyone!
  • Hi! My hubby and I are both 32, almost 33 in a few weeks. Found out I was pregnant on the 11th. I'm now 5w1d with twins after fertility treatments. Found out at ER a few days ago about twins, but waiting to see heart beats! Have had 2 previous miscarriages so praying they stick!
  • Hi everyone, now that I've taken another test I feel like I can jump in. I'm 33, my dh is 32 and we are expecting our 2nd around August 24. My dd will be 20 months on Christmas Eve. I lurked on the April 14 board but never joined in, so I am jumping in early with this group. I'm blessed to be able to stay at home with my dd. I also instruct a couple classes at our local Ymca. I worked out, until the day before contractions started, with my first so I am hoping to continue through this entire pregnancy as well. I look forward to getting to know everyone!
  • Hi, mom's I am 30 due 8/25. My dh and I have been together 13 years married 6. We have 2 boys 1&3 . I work from home watching other people's kids and I also work for a direct sales company selling Wine :)
    Our last pregnancy ended In September with a loss at 17weeks so this is a very pleasant and welcome rainbow baby.
    Looking forward to a happy and healthy 9 months and looking forward to getting to know all of you.









  • Hey, my name is Summer.
    I'm 23 years old and from london in the UK.
    This is my first pregnancy so i am excited but also have so many questions. This site has definitely helped me alot, so i appreciate all of your help through the discussions.
    I have a doctors appointment Tuesday where i will find out exactly how far gone i am, but according to the pregnancy test it is 4+
    Me and my partner have been together for 4 years so we knew one day we would love a family. However, i think he may be the one who needs supporting through this process! Haha
  • Hi!!! Congrats to all of you!
    Hubby and I just found out last night that we are expecting #3!!! So, so excited! We live in North Dakota and I am a SAHM.
  • Hi guys! I'm due with my second baby on August 26th. I was part of the December 2014 BMB with DS who is now one. Congrats to everyone on their BFPs!

  • Cautiously joining in!

    My story:

    Diagnosed with PCOS in July 2012 after trying on our own for a while without success. Was anovulatory on all oral meds, but got pregnant with my first round of injectables (Menopur). Our son is now 27 months old.

    We decided to start trying to conceive again when our son turned two. We went back to the RE since we knew we would need help. But I was actually ovulating on my own. We did use Femara and Metformin to improve egg quality and decrease our chance of miscarriage, which is increased with PCOS. Positive test on 12/12. Beta 12/14 was 99. Beta 12/16 was 280. Due date of 8/22/16!

  • I am 27, my husband is 34 and we have an 8 year old boy. We are due mid August and I really hope this is a girl!
    I feel very lucky to have so many supportive people who are so excited with us. Our son has been wanting a brother or sister for a while now and hopefully we will know in a couple weeks which it is. I found out at 11-12 weeks with Hayden that he was a boy.

    We live out side Chehalis, WA. That's just south of Olympia.
  • Hi everyone!
    So crazy that I am here. My fiance and I are about 4 weeks along with our first. My EDD is August 24th, 2016. I'm only 20 yo and my fiance is 22 yo, so shout-out to some of the younger mommies-to-be out there. I am so excited and nervous for this crazy, life-long adventure - and I am so excited to have this community to share my thoughts and show support! I got my BFP on Sat, Dec 19th with a FRER... Clear as day! I waited to test until 2 days after my missed period (so much money spent on too-early pregnancy tests). I felt sick to my stomach this afternoon so I POAS when I got home from work and .... voila. Good luck and well wishes to everyone here. :)
  • Hi Krisitin! Congratulations! I am also due in August and also had a miscarriage at about 7 weeks over the summer! Feeling really excited and scared! Are you telling anyone over the holidays?

  • Hi there.

    My name is Jordan and I live near Houston. I just found out I was pregnant after I started crying (bad) over something so silly this past Friday. I am expected to deliever my first on 8/13/16. I am telling my husband on Christmas and I can't wait! We have been trying for almost two years and I don't think it has officially hit me yet. After Christmas I will make an appointment with my doctor. This whole time we were trying I have always told myself I am never going to be a mom so I am so scared now about everything!

    Can't wait to continue this journey with you guys!! I will keep you all in my thoughts and look forward to other discussions.

  • Hello my name is krystal and we live in arkansas, im currently 7 weeks pregnant and due aug 2016 with our first child. We tried for 2.5 years and we have our miracle baby.
  • Hi all - I'm Kat. I'm 34 and this pregnancy is a bit of a surprise. I have a 7 year old son and a 4 year old daughter. Looking forward to getting to know you all. I was Team Green for both of my kids; thinking we might find out this time around!
