This pregnancy was a HUGE surprise!

- Tell us a little about yourself!
im a 44 year old teacher from Texas, and my husband is 40. We were on the verge of an " empty nest" this Fall, when the Universe surprised us!❤️
After a miscarriage in early 2015, we had given up on the idea of any more children, but we are thrilled/nervous/overjoyed/scared/excited/optimistic about this amazing surprise!
- How long were you trying (if you were)?
About a year, had a missed miscarriage last year about this time, so I guess my body was finally ready for another try!
- Is this your first child/do you have any other children?
1st child!

I'm 32, Canadian living in Calgary, Alberta. I am a Golf Professional & teaching is my passion. I love to garden, dirtbike, and golf in the summers. In the winters I generally relax, snowboard, read, sew and cook! So we are looking forward to having a little babe around to keep us company in the off-season! My partner and I have been together for two years, can't wait for our lives to grow even more!
- How long were you trying (if you were)?
We weren't really, we went to Europe in April and thought lets just not use condoms and see what happens, apparently that was a baby lol

I'm 26 working as a Systems Admin in IT and my BF is a Security Guard, we just bought our first home in November so we're very excited to fill the house with kids!! Our plan is for my partner to be a stay at home dad once Im done Mat leave which thankfully won't be until a year after the baby is born.
First of all - hello and congratulations everyone! I got my BFP last Wednesday evening (wow how life has changed in just a week!) and it was a bit of a surprise as we had just returned from a long anniversary away in wine country, and I had taken tests leading up to the trip just in case which were all negative. Found this board on Sunday and have been stalking it ever since, but was only allowed to start posting today. So grateful for all the threads that helped me in these first few days by knowing I am not alone! Thank you all and keeping each Mama to be on here in my thoughts and prayers for a healthy journey! : )
- What's your due date?
According to the online calculators, 1/28/17. But our first appt is 6/28 so we will get an updated date then (we hope)!
- How long were you trying (if you were)?
First try! We were told to expect it to take a few months, so while on a European "last big solo vacation before we start trying" cruise in late April into early May, we had fun without any protection and, well I guess it worked! I have been off the pill for two years though (for other reasons) and had been having normal cycles, etc.
- Is this your first child/do you have any other children?
Our first! And like most other first time parents to be on here, we are excited/nervous/happy/all the emotions! We also have two "fur babies" that keep us on our toes!
- Tell us a little about yourself!
We live in the greater Boston area, are both 33, and just celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary. Most of our siblings already have kids, but we made a career change/cross country move just before our wedding and wanted to wait until my husband was out of nursing school and working for a bit before trying. I work as an Executive Assistant in Boston and enjoying traveling, singing, kayaking, and running (I just ran my second Boston Marathon this past April).
