Hello everyone, my hubby and I are both 23. We were planning on trying to have a baby in a few months but surprise! It happen a little bit earlier than expected. My due date is Feb 5th.
Hi all! I'm the Bumpie Formerly Known as Shank. I was very active on my daughters BMB and am so thrilled to see some of my May '13 mamas here! I had a brief stint on Dec 15, but MC at 9 weeks. Hoping I get to stick around much longer this time. H&H 9 months to everyone. Our due date is Feb 24th, my kid is May 25th and I must say having an end of the month date suuuuuucks, but I'll take it!
Me: 25 DH: 28 This little surprise bundle of joy will be our first! EDD: 2/22/17 No previous pregnancies, and honestly pretty terrified of MC. First doc appointment tomorrow
Hey fellow mommas! My name is Amy and I am due Feb 9th with our third child! We have a 3 year old girl and a 19 month old boy. I'm a little nervous about being out numbered but really excited! We recently had a 6 week ultrasound and saw a strong heartbeat! Starting to tell family now!
Just got a BFP this morning-- happy Father's Day to my husband! I'm 35, he's 39. We've been married 2 years and actively trying for 15 months. After a year of nothing, we started fertility testing and visits with a reproductive endocrinologist. I had a vitamin D deficiency that I'm now on vitamins to correct, but otherwise were diagnosed with unexplained infertility. We were waiting for my next cycle to start to continue with more tests, but got our happy news today! It's my first pregnancy (that sounds so weird), and my husband has an almost 8 year old son who lives with us. EDD: 2/24/17?
Hi! I'm 27 and this will be my second, I have a 2.5 y/o DD. I was around in the O13 group, but mostly just lurked with very minimal posting. Hoping to be more involved this time! Based on LMP my EDD should be around 2/14 but I haven't had my first appointment yet and expect that to probably change after dating US. I suspect I may be a little further along as I had just had my mirena removed in April and only had one period before getting pregnant. My cycles were still out of wack and I o'd pretty early. I guess we'll see!
Hi everyone - I’m 35 and my DH is 37. We’ve been married since September 2014, together since 2011. We’ve had our sweet greyhound Sadie a year and a half (my avatar photo) and have been TTC #1 for 6 months (I was in the TTGP the past couple months). It's still very early (EDD is 2/21/17), but I wanted to jump right into this group. I've still been temping since the BFP and yesterday my BBT dropped below the CL which kind of freaked me out, though this morning it's back up where it has been. Are any of you still finding value in temping or have you stopped to eliminate any excess worry?
Hello ladies! Due Feb 21st. So excited! Only negative is I feel like I've been hit by a bus with exhaustion. When might this pass?
I don't know when it'll pass (this is my first), but I can certainly empathize with being more exhausted than usual, particularly after work. (And I'm due Feb 21st as well!)

I stopped temping, but really just because I don't see the value in it at this point. I was excited last night to realize I don't have to wake up at 4:40 every day to temp any more! Is there a reason to keep temping?
Hi all! I just got my BFP today, with an EDD of March 3. Wanted to say hello as I've been lurking and may pop in over here once in a while if that's alright.
This is my second pregnancy. DS is 9 months old and had to be delivered via emergency C-section. Hoping for a VBAC this time around.
Hello! I'm Tess and I'm returning to The Bump after a 7 year hiatus. I'm 31, been married for 8.5 years, and our son turned 7 last week. I had an IUD for 5 years and then we spent over a year unsuccessfully TTC. I went on BC for 6 months to try to prevent hormonal migraines and surprisingly got pregnant 2 months off it! EDD 2/15 based on LMP. So happy to finally be doing this again
Hello! I got my BFP on Saturday and I am finally coming out of the shock period. My daughter is 6 and I also have two step kids 8 & 11. I've been on the bump since 2009, I think, but haven't been on in years. Looking forward to doing this again!
Hi everyone!! Congrats on the bfps. I am so excited to join this group. We have been TTC for over a year and we found out Oct '15 that we have MFI. Since then we have done 3 IUI's and then this month did IVF and I am so happy that we got our bfp! We just found out on Saturday and it still hasn't totally sunk in yet.
Edit: Forgot my due date, I believe it will be February 25th.
Me: 28, DH: 30 Married July 2014 DX: Severe MFI- 3 failed IUI's, IVF #1 Egg retrieval June 4th 2016, 5 day transfer- BFP Baby Boy! EDD 2/25/2017. Our sweet miracle Carter Bennett arrived 2/12/2017 6 lbs, 2 oz 19 inches. Surprise BFP!!! Baby Girl due 10/1/2018.

Hi! My name is Jesse and I'm 35. I got my positive about 2 weeks ago and have been lurking around the boards since then. This is my first pregnancy and it's a surprise so it's all pretty surreal. I only took the test because our cat was being abnormally affectionate and it seemed weird. I keep expecting to wake up not pregnant but I keep waking up to really sore boobs (that's really the only really uncomfortable symptom I'm feeling). Based on my math, I'm due 2/8/17 which is two days after my birthday. I'll know more after my first appointment in 2 weeks.
HI ladies! So happy to be joining you all My husband and I have been trying for #2 for over a year. Finally with some help from my RE, here we are! I've had two betas so far- the first was 13dpiui #218.5 and the second was 16dpiui #914.84. I go in for my third this Friday. Thinking my due date will be Feb 25th.
Hello every one. Im new here but not new to ttc Back in 2010 and 2011 i had miscarriages. Then 2012 had ds. Then 2015 & 2016 i had chemicals. Now preggo again!

Very nervous and scared and excited! Glad to meet everyone!
Hello everyone. I am 35 and just found out on Father's Day that I was pregnant. Great gift for my hubby . This will be the first for both of us. I had a miscarriage at 11 weeks back in March 2015 and have been trying ever since to get pregnant. It came as a shock because I don't have any symptoms yet. Actually I was 2 days late and didn't have my normal terrible PMS symptoms (I get cramps that leave me in the fetal position) so I figured what the heck, I will test. 4 positives later I sort of believed it so Monday I went to my OB and they confirmed! Anxiously awaiting my first appointment in a couple weeks now. Due on 2/25
Hi folks! I'm 33 and found out I was pregnant on 6/19. Based on all the due date/how far along am I predictor tests, I think my due date is around 2/27. I had an early loss in February, so I'm really nervous about this one, and over-googling every little thing I do or don't feel. I've been in the "Not trying, not preventing" camp since late fall, but we started inching more toward the "trying" side this month...and I guess we got lucky Just to complicate things, we are also in the process of domestic adoption (not matched yet, though), and we'll have to put that on hold due to my pregnancy. First OB appointment is on July 5th...trying to keep calm (unsuccessfully) until then.
Hello everyone! I am 37 and my husband is (still) 36 (he loves to point out that he is younger than me by three months, but he will joining me at 37 soon). This is baby no. 3 for us. My daughter is 4 and my son is 2. We also have an 11 pound rescue puppy named Peyton (my husband is from a suburb of Indy and I am from Chicago...his spelling of the dog's obviously name won).
We decided to try for baby no. 3 for a few months, and if nothing came of that be happy with our two. Well, here I am, so I guess things worked out I am admittedly bad at keeping track of my period, so after guessing on the date of my LMP I "think" my EDD is 2/20. It will sort itself out eventually, right?
Hi all! I just got my BFP today, and I think my EDD may be Feb. 27. This will be our first!
I have a quick question I wonder if y'all can help me answer. I called the birthing center today about scheduling my first appointment, and they didn't mention anything about having a blood test to confirm the positive HPT I took. Having consulted Dr. Google, though, it seems like a lot of people schedule a blood test to confirm pregnancy. Do any of you know if it's important to get a blood test to confirm? Thanks so much!

@minipg most offices actually don't do blood work to confirm pregnancy, as it gives you the same answer as a pregnancy test. Blood tests are usually only needed if you are high risk and need additional monitoring.
Also do some backup hpt. First response is really good. Beware of digitals, they often give false positives which can be heartbreaking. Congratulations though it sounds like you're on your way!
Hello everyone! I just got "bumped" from the January board because the ultrasound put the due date at 2/2/16. So I'll probably do some bouncing back and forth but look forward to getting to know everyone here! I've had one previous pregnancy that resulted in a MMC, and one chemical before that. Just hoping for a happy, healthy baby this time around!
Hi everyone! I got my BFP on Saturday. My EDD is 02/20/2017, we have our first doctor's appointment next Friday (07/01). I'm 36, H is 39 and this is our first. We haven't told ANYONE yet, it's been hard to keep it to ourselves until our appointment. I'm excited, nervous and scared all wrapped into one. I look forward to getting to know all you.
Hi everyone! I just got my bfp with what will be my third little one. I've got a son who will be 5 in a few weeks and another son who is 2. I haven't been to the doctor yet, but according to when I'm pretty sure I ovulated, my due date is looking like February 26, 27, so just a bit over 4 weeks. So I'll be one of the cabooses closing out February!
Hello! My husband and I conceived on a medicated cycle with IUI and we got our first true BFP on Thursday, followed by betas to confirm on Friday and Monday. I was active in the TTGP board, and I'm excited so see so many other TTGP grads over here! I'm also looking forward to getting to know many of you over the next 9 or so months! My EDD, based on the day of my IUI is February 25, 2017!

Hi! I have been here for awhile but never posted! I am 35 years old and praying this pregnancy is successful! I found out in December 2015 I had a blighted ovum and I had a D&C in January 2016. I got another BFP in March but a week later I started bleeding. My assumption is that it was a chemical pregnancy. Here I am again! This is week 6 for me! I am very anxious about something going wrong but trying to be excited at the same time. Nobody knows but my hubby (and now all of you)! My due dates is 2/11/17.
Hi - I'm so excited to join you ladies - it's so hard keeping this a secret! I am 35 and my DH is 37. We were trying for 3 cycles and I am 5 weeks today. The fatigue is real!!! My EDD is 2/22/17.
We are also moving from Boston to upstate NY at the end of summer, I just gave notice to my job, and we are looking to buy a house - it's a bit stressful but all good stuff
I'm here very hesitantly. DH and I got pregnant pretty quickly once we started trying last Winter. However, in February we suffered a heartbreaking Missed Miscarriage at 6.5 weeks (found out at 8 weeks). Took some time off, and were lucky enough to get pregnant our first month trying. Due in late February. I'm super nervous until we get out of the first trimester.
I was pretty active on TTGP the first time around, and then my September BMB, but took time off from the Bump following the MC.
@blush64 - I also thought about holding out to tell DH on Father's Day, and I couldn't wait the THREE DAYS. I could never keep my mouth shut for more than a week. He know like 5 minutes after he got home.
@minipig90 - with my first pregnancy, they didn't do a blood test. But they did with my second.

Hello! Been lurking for a couple weeks now but I think I'm ready to dive in! I'm 28, DH is 33 and this is baby #1! We conceived our second full cycle of ttc which was a huge blessing. Given my demanding job, our window was only 3 months! Nervous about balancing 90 hr work weeks with baby on board then baby at home, but I know it will all be worth it.
Hi I'm 33 and got a +hpt about 2 weeks ago. We've been trying for about 5 years so it was pretty unbelievable for us. Confirmed with nicely rising betas over the last 9 days and a heartbeat on ultrasound today! We are very excited. We have a 6 (and a half!) year old son who has been just begging for a sibling forever, so I'm so excited to make my baby a big brother! EDD 2.17.17
