Hi everyone! I'm 28, husband is 35. We were married on March 21 and found out we are expecting a few weeks after that. Funny how that works haha. Due date is Dec 21, and we are very excited!!
Hi I'm Sam. I'm 27. Currently 5w2d. This is my first pregnancy and I'm of course nervous about everything. Went to the Dr at 4w1d & had my blood work done. Hcg was 826 and progesterone was 13.8. My doctor wants it closer to 17 so I've been put on suppositories which made me even more nervous. At 4w5d my hcg was 4755 so doc says my numbers are good and not to worry. I go for my first us on 6 weeks. I'm so excited and anxious and I just want to tell my family, but holding off until I know all is well. Currently due around 12/29. Happy & healthy 9 months to all!
Hello! I am 30, have a DD who just turned 2. Got a BFP last Saturday. EDD 12-26-16. Kind of anxious after an early pregnancy loss in November. OB visit this coming Friday.
Hi everyone! SO GLAD to be back on here.. I had a miscarriage last July at 9 weeks and it was so hard. I am about 6 weeks now and approximate due date of 12/22/16! I don't have my US until May 16th and I am trying my best to stay positive and stress free! Anyone else going through the same thing? I also have systemic lupus and hypothyroidism to add to the mix which makes everything harder. Can't wait for my appt! My DH is 30 and I am 33, and he is super excited!
Hi everyone! I haven't formally introduced myself yet. I live in Canada, am (newly) 33, hubby is 35 and we have a 3 yo son. I'm a SAHP and we have an organic hobby farm. Some of you may have seen my posts mentioning hernia so background is: we were not ttc and had been cautious all year - except this one time before my scheduled surgery. Lo and behold, sticky bean. It's been a *very* whirlwind experience for me so far, especially as I had planned to be repaired when we next conceived. I have anxiety and the news has been incredibly challenging for me to absorb. Particularly because we struggled to conceive our first. But, here we are- 6w5d! My EDD is around Dec 21 and I'm planning for a natural water birth. I already feel after lurking/responding to some posts, that I relate to a few of you! I look forward to the next several months with you all.
Hello from Alaska! I am pregnant with my third child with an EDD of 12/29. I am 28, DH is 32. We have 1 girl and 1 boy ages 4 and 2. This will be my second December baby! I am excited to be here!
Hello all! Im a first time momma to be from Canada! I'm 24 and my husband is 25. I got my BFP April 5 but was in shock and just terrified that something would happen so I held off posting until now. We went for my dating ultrasound yesterday and found out my EDD is 12/21 and our little bean has a heartrate of 134bpm! Feeling much better after being able to see it! Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Hi everyone! I'm Tristan and approximately 7 weeks along with my 3rd. I have two boys (5 and 2.5). I found out about this little nugget at 3 weeks, 4 days. Morning sickness just kicked in full force, so it's been a long week! We go to check on this little guy (like how I assume boy? Lol!) next week, on hub's bday! I was really active with my son's March '11 group & we are all still friends! Can't wait to get to know you all.
Pregnant with #2 (5 weeks 1 day today- so I'm at the end of the month) My husband has klinefelter's (and therefore infertile) we did 1 round of ivf (he had to undergo surgery ) 3 years ago and this is our absolute last chance at baby #2 so I'm a bit of a wreck waiting on our first ultrasound in 3 weeks to check for a heartbeat. We had a chemical in December, so prayers this one sticks!!
DD#1 was 2 in january and such a joy!
I'm happy to be here! Looking forward to getting to know you all
Hello all. I am expecting #2. EDD 12/26 based on LMP. 6 weeks today based on LMP and had an ultrasound that showed a yolk sac and possible fetal pole (but inconclusive). My first took IVF to conceive and this one happened naturally so in shock! Hopeful repeat ultrasound in 2 weeks shows nice heartbeat!
DH and I are expecting #2 on 12/20 based on LMP. We have a son who will be two November. I know every pregnancy is different but this one has been off to a bit of a rough start so it's been tough to find that happy place where I'm comfortable with being excited about being pregnant. The extreme morning (all day!) sickness, migraines, fatigue, and withdrawal symptoms from other meds I was taking are taking their toll but if this is a sticky baby I wouldn't change a thing.
I'm looking forward to getting to know you all and am praying for a happy and healthy nine months for all.
Hi all! 7w1d with my second! DD just turned 7 and this baby is the result of giving up after 3yrs TTC! Had sonogram 4/27 and confirmed heartbeat so looks like we're trucking along! DH and I are both 29 and in Kansas.
Hi all. I originally joined the Nov 16 boards based on LMP but found out today at my dating u/s that I'm firmly in the Dec 16 realm! EDD is 12/14/16 and this will be our third (first was born 11/12 and second was born 10/14). I'm 32 (almost 33) and DH is 33. I'll apologize in advance that I don't think I can read all 323 messages on this board so I'll just say hi again and wish you all a H&H 9 (or less) months
First time mom! I am 24, my husband 26 and pleasantly surprised after 1 month off of the pill to be 5 pregnancy tests approved pregnant. Haven't been to the doctor yet but we are scheduled for June 2nd. I'm a nervous nelly by blood and am 6 weeks pregnant with symptoms that magically went away last week. So I'm reaching out to others (Sense my sister who is going to be a September 2016 Mom has never lost her symptoms) and finding out there is this entire other lingo that I know nothing of, symptoms that come and go, etc. Hopefully we can all help each other out.
***Loss Mentioned*** Hello everyone! Or I should say "hello, again!" I have already introduced myself back on April 15, then left December Birth Month because I had thought for sure I was miscarrying this (my second) pregnancy, but it hasn't happened (and I hope it won't).
Like I said, this is our second pregnancy, the first ended in a blighted ovum in September. I started spotting with this pregnancy and had my HCG done on 4/22 along with an ultrasound. HCG was 844, and the ultrasound showed nothing, just a thickened lining. There was a chance I was just really early in the pregnancy or that it was a chemical pregnancy. I gave up at that time. Since then, nothing happened and I continued to have spotting, but nothing heavy. We repeated my HCG on Thursday (up to 4685!!) and had another ultrasound today. We saw a gestational sac and yolk and a little tiny bean!! We're really excited, but just not out of the woods. This pregnancy is low. Right close to the cervix...I may miscarry or I may not...I'm going to be monitored closely and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor the growth. Hopefully, I am here for the long haul with you all, but only time will tell...
Hey ladies. I found out that I am having my second baby about a month ago, but really wanted to make sure everything was going ok before I introduced myself. I already have one little girl about 13 and a half months old.
I'm 9 wks 3 days and I finally saw the dr, and got my ultrasound. So I figured I could go ahead and join y'all.
@KitMachine I stopped my BC pack mid January and got KU in March. I definitely thought it would take a little longer because everyone insisted on telling me it would take 6 months. So I was happy and excited that it happened so soon
Me (28), H (30) Together Since 04/21/2009; Married Since 05/29/2013
Im 29 and live in Novato. I had one miscarriage last February. We have been TTC ever since and finally got a positive. I'm 8 weeks and 6 days pregnant. My EDD I'd December 6th. Hope I stick around this time!
Hello everyone! First time momma to be here! Got my BFP a little over two weeks ago. Tentatively due December 21 but I go for a dating ultrasound on May 4. I'm 24 years old and DH is 25. We were trying for 2 months when we got our exciting news. We are both terrified and excited about our impending arrival. I'm sure this is going to be a crazy journey over these next 7 1/2 months!
Hello! My name is Melody (26). My DH is also 26. Had an ultrasound yesterday and I'm about 7 weeks along. We have been TTC since April 2015, and we had an ectopic pregnancy in November 2015. I have a 4 year old daughter, and she is SO READY to be a big sister! Oh, and I have a corgi and a basenji mix
Hello Everyone! This is my first pregnancy....my dh and I have been trying for 9 months. I'm still kinda in shock...can barely believe it. The day after I found out, I sprained my foot (thought I broke the thing) ended up going to patient first and good news it wasn't broken and I got my pregnancy confirmed as well My first obgyn appointment is today I'm 34 and a nurse in the sicu....this whole thing it a bit scary, but awesome as well. We are not telling anyone until we get our first sonogram So that's us so far. Hope everyone is having a pleasant day!
Hello! I'm Kriston and I'm 29 years old. I'm nervous to be here after having a miscarriage last July (we've been TTC since, so this is all very exciting!). I have one daughter already, she is 2 and a half. I absolutely loved my BMB on here the first time around and am still very much in touch with my favorite ladies from there. I can't wait to get to know all of you better as well. I had my first ultrasound on Monday after some spotting, and it looks like things are doing well with this tiny bean. I'm 6w4d today. I am going in for a follow up ultrasound and real first visit on Friday. Fingers crossed I'm here for the long haul this time! Happy and healthy wishes for all of you
Hello - mom of two (5yrs and 2.5yrs), currently 9 weeks along but this one isn't ours! I am a gestational carrier for a friend, so it is a different experience this time. I don't expect to be too active on here, but thought I'd introduce in case I decide to jump in on anything.
Hi ladies! I'm Kayla, 26 years old, and type 1 diabetic. This will be my second pregnancy although I have been considering it my first. I miscarried last time, but my dr was never sure how far along I got and I never even had an ultra sound last time. This time around, my boyfriend is much more supportive, and I am taking better care of myself as well. I have my first Ultrasound on May 9th, but my EDD atm is 12/21.
Hi all! DH and I are 28, and DS is 14 months. I went for my annual visit and found out we're expecting #2. I'm measuring at 6+2 weeks from my US today, so we have a Christmas Day present on the way! We are Team Green!!
Hello my name is chele. Im 7 weeks and 4 days and super nervous cause my first ultrasound is next week 2nd pregnancy but will be first baby..just praying for a heartbeat..
DH and I are very excited to be expecting after trying to conceive for 9 months. This is our second baby. Our oldest will be 5 in August and we have yet to tell him. He's been asking for a brother or sister for 6 months and we think he's going to be excited. DH and I are a little nervous as we have had 2 MC's previously but praying that all goes well as we realllly want another child. Can't wait to get to know all of you! I am not an avid poster but I am a "liker" and tend to rely on these board for support and answers.
Hi everyone! My name is Kaitlin and I am expecting my first child Dec 2nd is EDD. I am 27 and my DH is 32. We have been together for 8 Years and we are very excited about this new journey in our lives!
My name's Candace. This is my second baby. I have a beautiful 3 year old baby girl. I'm 34 and from the South. This is my third pregnancy though (MC with first at 5 weeks). I'll be 8 weeks tomorrow. I won't get to see my OB until next Thursday when I'm 9 weeks. They'll do an ultrasound then. I'm so nervous and anxious. I can't wait to see this little one and see what's going on in there.
We have been TTC since 2013 and I was told by my OB that I wasn't ovulating. I tried clomid and stopped after the third round and started seeing a RE. We decided to stop actively trying and just live life while I tried to come down on my weight and get healthier. Well, by some miraculous shocking miracle (to be redundant) I found out I couldn't have an endoscopy a few weeks ago because I was pregnant.
We finally got our first appointment so I feel like I should hop onto this forum now. According to my own calculations, my due date guesstimation is Dec. 26. I'm hoping it'll be early or late to give some space between Christmas and a birthday but whatever happens, we're excited. It'll be our first so it's all new!
Hi! I'll also join on the cautiously optimistic bench. i am 30 and married with an almost 2 year old (part of the May'14 BMB). upon having my daughter via emergency c-section, we were told I had immense scarring. Surgical notes said my Fallopian tubes were unidentifiable and that my uterus was plastered. After searching for an OB that would fight to get more answers for me, we opted for an exploratory laporoscopy last summer. Prior to the surgery we were told, in no uncertain terms, that I wouldn't be able to conceive on my own again without the help of IVF. Words like hysterectomy were thrown around quite a bit... The surgery revealed that everything was completely CLEAR. I don't know if you believe in miracles, but this was nothing short of that. My OB was astonished. This past year I've walked around feeling like it can't be real and then just a couple of wks ago I got a BFP. It still feels totally surreal, but we are completely grateful.
My M14 BMB was a place a great resources and support (and entertainment!) so I am excited to jump into a new board and see what's in store!
Hi everyone! I got my BFP a few weeks ago, EDD is Christmas!! (Poor kid). I'm27 and my DH is 28. We've been married for less than 6 months and this is my third pregnancy, his first Can't wait for my first appointment next week!
Hi everyone, My name is Kristy, I am 32 years old Mother of 3, Pregnant with #4. I have a 5 year old, Soon to be 3 year old and a 1 year old. Very scared about haven this baby so very very close to my last one. My EDD is 12/31/16 but the date might change after my dating ultra sound on the 19th.
Lukus DOB 11/1/10, Kayla 5/23/13, Madison 4/27/15 EDD with #4 1/9/2017
Hi all! I've been on the boards before (last year, before my MC) but haven't been back since. I took a HPT April 29th and got a BFP, but it was a little light (in my opinion) so I took two more May 1st and got two very clear BFPs. I've been to the obgyn and have had blood drawn. They think I might be a little earlier than my LMP indicates, but I'll find out today if I'll need progesterone support or if I just ovulated late. DH and I are praying so hard for a sticky baby this time. I'm 28 and he is 30 and when the first pregnancy ended in MC we were devastated. So, I'm trying to stay positive and not freak out over every little thing. ☺️
Hey guys, Just giving an update on my blood results! The nurse called me this morning and said my progesterone levels look great and my hcg levels have tripled since Tuesday! This is great news, right!?! ☺️

Hello ladies,

DH and I are very excited to be expecting after trying to conceive for 9 months. This is our second baby. Our oldest will be 5 in August and we have yet to tell him. He's been asking for a brother or sister for 6 months and we think he's going to be excited.
I'm still nervous about being 100% happy because I don't want nature to jinx me, but I've got to start counting the small victories somewhere, right?
