We've been trying for jeeze, about 10 months I think. Finally got our BFP August 20th (DHs birthday how funny) I use to be an avid poster in TTGP but quit the past few months. Expecting our 1st little one on May 1st! Very excited to take this journey with everyone!

BFP date August 17, 2016
EDD May 01, 2017
Children 5.5 (DD), 3.5 (DS) and a still born daughter who flies with the Angels.

We live in Canada. I know the majority  on here live in the US. Look forward to getting to know everyone.


This is definetely going to be an April baby. I've had 2 previous csections and also the stillbirth. Pretty sure middle April. But I would prefer to stay here as I'm so far behind April ladies. Hope that's ok.

We got our bfp on August 24th. Looks like I'll be due May 1st also!  Kinda nervous as last year at this time I was just shy of 7 weeks when I mc, so hopeful to keep this one.

Hi everyone! Just got my BFP yesterday. We've been trying for over a year now, and I had a chemical pregnancy last year so I'm being hopefully optimistic about this pregnancy. I'm 38 years old and this will be my 2nd child. DS just turned 3 last month. I'm very excited to be on this journey with all of you. My EDD is May 6th.

Hoping for a sticky baby for you!

EDD 5/4, but will most likely be mid April due to previous C-sections and high risk during previous pregnancies.

Hello ❤

I got my BFP August 22 and my EDD is May 3rd. I have a 14 month old girl. 

We've been trying for our second for several months so I'm excited to be here. 

feelinchubby824

So excited to meet you all! Anyone have a doctors appointment yet? Mine is scheduled for Sept 19th I think they are doing an ultrasound 

Stormy61

Mine is September 21 and will include an ultrasound.

Hi everyone! I just posted on the other post but figured I'd do it here too since this is the official intro thread. 

DH is 35, I'm 37, and this is my 5th pregnancy. I have two kids, DS is 4 and DD is almost 2. Sadly, I've had a loss after each kid. We've been trying this time since last December and that resulted in my last m/c. Got this BFP on the 19th and really hoping the pregnancy sticks! 

I went in this week for blood work and my HCG levels came back good but progesterone was a little low so I'm on progesterone suppositories for now.

Hi everyone! I got my BFP 8/23 and our EDD is May 1st! I'm 30 DH is 29 and DS is 8 months. Was an exciting surprise for us to be pregnant again! On progesterone suppositories again like I was last pregnancy due to early miscarriage in 2014. Our first doctors appointment and U/S is 9/9 I'll be almost 7 weeks. Feeling good so far but waiting for the nausea to kick in. Nice to meet you all!!

BFP August 19th
I'm not entirely positive but I think my EDD is 5/1, this pregnancy is lining up exactly with my first. Three years apart for getting the BFP. My son's birthday is 04/29/14
so they could be birthday twins. 

I am excited and nervous. Looking forward to a great board and making this journey again (despite being the crabbiest pregnant person ever!)

Hi All, 
My BFP was Aug. 25 and my EDD is 5/4...I am super excited, but cautious since I had my first miscarriage last Nov. and it resulted in a complicated D&C. I have one son who is a toddler and is approaching 2 next month.I am already feeling major fatigue kicking in, ugg! My first appt. is set for 9/27. I always read through the boards during my pregnancy with my son, but this time around should be fun to participate

Hey everyone Just got our BFP yesterday which was perfect as i had to pick dh up from work so i got to surprise him! We have a 2 year old little girl born july 2014, this will be our second child. I'm not 100% on my edd as my lmp was July 29, based on "average cycyle i would be due May 5 but when i averaged my cycles its 30 days so my EDD would be May 7 so not sure what i should exactly go by. I sent a request for a midwife and hopefully will hear from them soon to book an appointment. So far I have just been tired, sore nipples, besides that i have been good, with my dd i had very bad sickness my whole first trimester i hope i don't get it this time around.

Been trying for 8 months, and have been a regular on TTGP (up until a month or so ago) that whole time. we had a miscarriage in March and 3 CP's since
hoping this one sticks, so tentatively introing here, due date is 5/9/17, had betas done at 9dpo with hcg of 10 and progesterone of 28, hopeful so far.

My little one is my first and completely unplanned. My fiance and I are both scared but excited. Next year will hold a lot of changes for us. I got my bfp last Monday morning, and I should be due May 1.

Old veteran of this over here with baby #3 on the way! DS1 is almost 5, DS2 is 3. Apparently DH and I are looking to be institutionalized with choosing to be outnumbered but our house is already chaos so what's a little more?! 

Only 36 more weeks until I can have some wine again

**possible tw ** not sure where to post this but woke up bleeding today, been crying all morning called the doctor she said we basically have to wait until Monday, that bleeding can happen blah blah. Said we could do hormone tests Monday if it continues. Not serious bleeding yet but I have a terrible feeling.

kleu9

@QueenDaenerysT - so sorry you are going through that right now. It can definitely be normal. I had some very early bleeding with my first pregnancy and it stuck! So my fingers are crossed for you!

Stormy61

@QueenDaenerysT FX that this is just a little bleeding! It sucks not knowing  

mia1116

FX that it's just implantation bleeding!

babywood15

Hello everyone! 
EDD: May 4
BFP: August 27
My husband & I have been TTC for 2 years & 2 months. We lost babies in November '14 & March '16. I don't know what to think about this pregnancy--nervous & excited. I feel both doomed because of my track record, & hopeful that this time it could actually work out, as I have a lot less stress in my life now with a job change, lost 13 lbs, & upped my metformin dosage. I don't have an appt scheduled yet but will call as soon as I can tomorrow a.m. I think I'll get in pretty quickly with my history. I have a really wonderful doc & we've already talked about trying progesterone if I got pg again. 

sarah0985

Hi ladies! I have already intro'd on April but I'm putting my estimated due date at April 30 or May 1. I have my first appointment this Wednesday. 

I'm 30 and my H is 29.  We've been together 5 years and married 2.  We live in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and about an hour south of Dubai. 
We were TTC for 15 months and were told I had PCOS and both tubes blocked. We were preparing for a surgery (for blocked tubes) this month when we were VERY surprised with our BFP. This will be both of our first.
looking forward to getting to know women here!

Hey everyone! I got my BFP yesterday. We had been trying for over a year so I'm still in shock. My due date is May 6. I have two little boys, ages 3.5 and 2.

erinm619

roper2617

***Tw previous MC mentioned***
Been TTC since June 2014. This is my second pregnancy, first pregnancy ended with a MMC discovered Nov 2015. Now PG with our beautiful rainbow after two cycles of Clomid. 
So happy to be here

mia1116

@roper2617 I also tried for over a year and got pregnant this time after and HSG and 1 round of Clomid. I'm a little scared it could be twins lol

SaVi925

BFP - this morning!
EDD- May 4
This was our first month trying! This baby will be our 3rd child. We have an 8 year old boy and a 2 year old boy! We are still in complete shock. Really looking forward to going through this pregnancy with all of you lovelys!

Krizzista

This will be my second, due May 6 (2 days before my birthday!) I have an 18 month old son who will be an awesome older bro. Married almost 4 years. We can't wait!!

roper2617

@mia1116 Twins run naturally on both my mom and my dad's side, so I'm at an even greater chance of twins, apparently. I'm feeling the same way! 

MrsFox2008

Hi there everyone! 
BFP: August 25th
EDD: May 2nd
baby #2

mia1116

@roper2617 we'll both be on twin watch! Besides taking Clomid, I'm 38 and chances of multiple increases with age.

Hi ladies! Just got a BFP this morning with an EDD of May 4th. I'm cautiously optimistic as the line was faint, but it's definitely there. Will be taking another test tonight to double confirm, but a line is a line, right? This will (hopefully) be baby #2 for us. We have a son that just turned 2 last month. If history repeats itself, baby #2 will be induced at 37 weeks, so I maybe should join the April group? But it seems like some of you are in similar situations, so I'm sticking around here...plus I'd rather be with others who are dealing with the same phase of the pregnancy, so you're stuck with me! :-) I had cholestasis with my 1st, which is what lead to the early induction. Also spent the whole pregnancy on Lovenox due to a previous Pulmonary Embolism (not pregnancy related)...definitely NOT looking forward to those lovely twice daily injections OR the lack of wine in my future, but looking forward to meeting all of you!

Hi! DH and I Both 27 and have a 13 mo DD. I got my BFP yesterday and not sure due date but sometime in the first week of May I think so excited to be adding a second squish to our family

Luckyu317

Hi! I got my bfp on Friday, Edd is 5/5. We did an Ivf cycle, so we found out super early. This is my third pregnancy. We've got two boys, 6 & 2. Our first US will be in 2-3 weeks, and we'll find out if we're expecting more than 1 squish!

hartmich

@PartiallyDomesticated I'm a fellow TTGPer and I recognize your name. Our due dates are 1 day apart also. I'm crossing my fingers and toes that you stick around here! 



This will be my first baby and based on O date, my EDD is 5/8/17. (Based on LMP it would have been 4/28/17. The impatient me wishes this were the real date.) I don't know why but I'm terrified of this baby sticking. I'm trying to remind myself that everything right now is out of my hands. 

BriannaH333

This is my second and quite the little surprise. We just celebrated daughter's first birthday and while we were planning to start trying in the next few month, this month came as a bit of a shock. Especially since we're in the middle of moving and renovating an old home and staying with MIL for the next few weeks during construction. Should be an interesting Fall. That being said, I hope baby is sticky! EDD May 6th #teamgreen
