Hi all - I'm expecting our third Dec 6th. I am an HG mom and HG is already in full effect. It normally clears up around 16 -18 weeks. Even with HG I'm happy to be here. I haven't been on The Bump for years (since my second born in Sept '13) - so much has changed!
Hi ladies! STM and EDD is Dec 1. My 1st ultrasound is next Monday April 10th. I'm 36 and shockingly pregnant naturally after a long IVF journey to have my DS who is 20 months old. I'm praying for a very sticky baby and looking forward to a long journey with you all!
ETA: Love to my Aug 2015 Mama's, hope this group produces lasting friendships just the same.
Hi all! I'm from San Diego, CA. I'm currently 4/5 weeks along with kid unit #2. Our DD Sydney will be turning 1 on May 29th, so this pregnancy is coming as a shock, as we were not planning on trying until after her birthday. All it took was drunk birthday sex without protection, one time. I shouldnt be surprised as Syd was a honeymoon surprise that didn't stay in Cabo... Im excited to be on this journey again, and hope to have an easy, uneventful pregnancy again.
Good morning! My name is Sara, I'm a 33 year old mother of 2. A 3.5 yo son and a 2 yo daughter. My first pregnancy ended in a mc, which I think was likely due to low progesterone (which I had with the next two pregnancies.) I never take anything for granted, so I am cautiously optimistic that I will be having my third in December! Due date should be around Dec 18 (my birthday is the 17!)
I am a nurse, and my hobbies include running (finished my first marathon in February!), reading, sewing, and babywearing. I joined the O13 bump group after all the babies were born, and was participating in the A15 group when all the drama and banning started. I didn't get banned, but left the bump for a while and don't remember all my old login info, so new profile! But not a newbie
Love seeing all the Ohio moms. I'm super close with the Ohio moms from my old BMB and cant wait to get to know all of you. I travel all the time to go see them, hopefully we'll all be able to get together sometime!
My name is Hanne, and I'm expecting my third little one on December 22. I'm in the DFW area, I live here with my DH, DD (2.5yo), DS (4.5yo), and a dog and two cats. I work as an RN at a nearby hospital. Not much else to say, really:)
Hey everybody! I lost twins and then had two years of infertility, but managed to conceive my daughter with some chemical intervention. We thought we'd need help again, so we haven't been using birth control... and now my due date is 13 months after my daughter's birth (12/14)! I'm hoping that I have enough vitamins in my system for this baby, and everything goes okay.
I've been active on TTGP for the last month, and I see some familiar "faces" here! Congrats to everyone on your BFPs!
I've also been lurking this board while waiting/hoping to join you all. DH and I have been TTC for 3 months now. I got a squinter positive on 10 dpo (16 dpo today), but **TW** as I had a CP last month **End TW** I've been waiting to actually miss my period and to see the lines get darker before I dared to post (and I have yet to make a midwife appt). Still really nervous, but at this point I figure it's better to have support than to try and deal with it all myself, since we're not telling anyone yet.
I live in Southern California with DH, but I'm originally from Scandinavia. I'm 33 years old, he is 30, and this will be our first baby. EDD is 12/24 which is Christmas where I'm from. I always figured that it would be a shame to have a child around a major holiday, but now that it looks like we might, I'm so excited about it.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone properly!
Hi everyone! I am excited to be here! Got my BFP on 3/27 and had my first U/S last week for measurement. EDD is 12/6 (I've already seen some due date buddies on here!). Most likely I will have a repeat C/S at 39 weeks so technically that puts baby here the last week of November but I feel like I will fit better on this board. I was very active on the December 2011 board with DS and I'm hoping to create new friendships here too!
@rainbowwishes5 nice to see another IF crossover! I remember reading your surrogacy post saying it was a CP about a week ago....it must have been a mistake now that you're here! Congrats!
Me: 34
TTC: 40 months Me: endometrial polyps and most recently diagnosed with polypoid endometrium. Mild endometriosis. AMH 4.5. FSH 9.2. TSH 8.5 (recently started synthroid) Everything else normal.

Hi everyone! I'm not sure of my EDD yet but we're guessing somewhere around Dec. 5th. My periods are irregular and I havent been tracking them for a while, which i highly regret now. I found out i was pregnant from a scheduled doctor's appointment for a UTI, so it was a complete surprise! This will be my third pregnancy. The first ended in a miscarriagd at 5 weeks while my husband and i were stationed in Korea. Fortunately, the second one was full term resulting in my son who is now 15 months old. For now I am a stay at home military wife stationed in Texas while working on a degree in Human resources. I have one dog, a husky and my hobbies include crochet, painting, yoga and candle making.
Hi everyone. I got my BFP on Easter(4/16), EDD is Christmas eve (12/24) I'm actually a December baby myself (12/11) and I'm 24 years old. I have a 3 yr old from before SO, we experienced a loss in 2014, then our rainbow baby in February of 2016. I'm an assistant manager at a very popular retail store and I'm in Mississippi. SO is a veteran, and is going to college.
Thanks @QsMadd but it's not a mistake until I have a child in my arms. I'm still looking into surrogacy for my frosties.

Hi everyone! Excited to join you and hoping for a healthy 9 months. This was my 4th IUI, tw**had a miscarriage after 1st iui** and found out we are pregnant on Friday 4/14. It was confirmed with beta yesterday of 91. Now hoping it doubles. My due date is 12/22 and this is our first child. I am 37 and dh is 44. We have been ttc since May 2014.
Hey! My name is Samantha. I live in the midwest. I'm 26 years old, I'm married and have 3 little girls ages 7, 4, and 3. I'm a photographer, sexual assault advocate, and postal mail carrier.
This is my 8th pregnancy, my last pregnancy ended a year ago this month, it was an ectopic pregnancy that ruptured resulting in internal bleeding and loss of my left fallopian tube. I got a bfp the beginning of this month, and I found it difficult to get excited about it at first. I had an ultrasound done on the 10th and so far so good. Heartbeat was fine and I'm currently 7 weeks along.
I look forward to being part of the group and sharing our journeys with each other
Hello everyone and congratulations! My name is Stacy, I just turned 38. My SO just turned 40. We have been married for 2.5 years. Both re married, no children from our previous marriages. We feel blessed to be having our kiddos together. We got our BFP on 4/11 and our EDD based on my charting is 12/17. I have my first appointment on 4/24. Trying to be cautiously optimistic. This pregnancy will make me a STM. DS is 21 months. Feeling nauseous today, which is no fun but hopefully a good sign.
Hi everyone! My name is Michelle. I'm 25 and SO is 26. This is my second pregnancy, my DS is 3. I got my BFP on April 11th. I had my Nexplanon removed on March 8th, and never had a period so I'm not entirely sure when I'm due, but based on possible conception dates my due date should be around December 20th-23rd. I have an ultrasound scheduled for May 8th! I'm still in shock that I got pregnant so quickly, but very very excited to be joining you all!
I'll stop lurking now and introduce myself... I'm Emily and my BFP was 3/31, I'm about 6.5 weeks, and my EDD is 12/9, maybe. Won't have my first appt until 5/1. I'm really nervous as this is my first pregnancy.. many women I'm close with have had miscarriages before carrying to full term, (mom, sister, MIL, best friend...) so my brain thinks it's just bound to happen. I'm just starting to get excited now that I'm having nausea all day lol. I recently moved from NJ to Syracuse, N.Y., to be closer to my in laws, we now live next door, haha! I have 2 furbabies, Kitty the beautiful calico and Zoloft the white fluffy bunny! Nice to meet you all
Hello! I'm Kristen. I'm 29; DH is turning 35 soon. I got my BFP on April 7th, and my EDD is 12/15 (I'm roughly 5+4 right now). I'm a FTM living in Southern California.
It took DH and I 6 months to conceive, which isn't all that long in the scheme of things (but it felt like forever!). I'm excited (and a little nervous!) to be pregnant and join this community.
Hey, here's my intro. I'm Jess, I'm 30-something and this will be my third baby. I'm due sometime between 12/3 and 12/17, I'm waiting for my dating ultrasound to get an official date.
I was super active on the O13 board, then left and had them delete my account during the mass exodus in 2015. But now I'm pregnant again so I'm back lol
Hi I am Jillian a new mom child #1 on the way. Super excited and embarrassing everything about growing a human. I am 5 weeks according to apps have first doc apt today so will now for sure after intake. I am learning a lot from these boards and acronyms being used. Happy to be part of this community!!!
Hi Everyone! I'm AB from Texas and am a FTM. I lurked and posted a tiny bit on TTGP, but got my BFP on 4/16! This was my first cycle off of BC and due to the greatness that is FF and my neurotic temping and opk usage even after being on BCP for over 10 years it worked! My husband said "Well that was fast" when I showed him the test... I'm excited to be part of this community! The ttgp board was filled with great support and information even if I was only there for a small while. Sending good vibes to everyone for uneventful 9 months ahead!
Hi December Mammas! I got my BFP on 4/7 and based on my LMP my due date is 12/12/17. I don't have my first appt with my OB until May 2 and the anticipation is driving me nuts. This is baby #2 for us. My son, Oliver, will be 2 on July 24th. I am remaining cautiously optimistic at 6 weeks 1 day. Here's to healthy growing babies!
Hi all, I'm a bit in shock to find that we have naturally conceived with an expected due date of 12/16 (based on online calculator). I only peed on a stick because I wanted to take my migraine meds and I'm not supposed to take them if there is any chance I'm pregnant. We are childless and would very much like to be parents. We're so excited, but also very cautious, because of our history.
I go by Amber on this board (not my real name). I'm 39. I probably won't read or contribute much on here until we've had some genetic testing and cleared the first trimester, but I thought I'd say hi and good luck to everyone and I hope to share this journey with you all.
Our history: [spoiler] After two years of infertility, we conceived through IUI. Everything was going smoothy except for feeling nauseated from 4pm onward every day, I had a cute little belly, we had announced the pregnancy and were planning a baby shower, decorating the baby's room, etc. The 20-week ultrasound revealed that the baby was not okay and would never be okay (later tests revealed that she had full Trisomy 18). We terminated the pregnancy. Medically, everything went very smoothly, but dealing with the loss of our baby has been extremely difficult emotionally. Given my age and the price of infertility treatments, I wasn't sure we'd get another chance at being parents. [/spoiler]
Hi! I'm barely pregnant but since I got my BFP 8DPO I feel like it's been an eternity! I'm due Christmas Eve.
**TW** I had a loss at 21 weeks January 4th. Her due date would have been May 20. I'm very happy to be expecting again but I'm super anxious. ***end TW*** I have 2 children earth side. An almost 21 year old and a 3 year old.
I'm sending positive vibes to a happy and healthy 9 months to us all!!

Hi everyone! I'm Beka and my EDD is December 13 by LMP. I tested positive on April 12. This is my third pregnancy. *TW* my first ended in a missed mc at 12 weeks *end TW*, my second with my beautiful 12 month old daughter. I got my levels checked yesterday and they said all was normal, so that was a relief because with my other pregnancies I was SO SICK at this point, and I feel awesome and starving with this one. Excited for this journey!
I'm 27 and I live in the deep South with my sweet husband, baby daughter, and precious pup.
Hi all, my name is Felicia, I'm 25 almost 26. This is my 4th pregnancy. I have a daughter who will be 5 soon. My next child is my son who will is 18 months and a son that is 6 months. This was a big surprise to me and my husband. We found out Easter morning. Our estimated date is Dec. 9th. We travel for my husband's work, so we are currently in corpus Christi TX, but I believe we will be somewhere in Oklahoma when we start appointments. We are a very natural living family. Lots of whole foods, vaccine free, and all natural birthing. My last son was birthed in a tub. I am kind of an unusual person. I have a busy life and I hate when people see me with my kids and say " oh you really got your hands full". I love my kids and my family. I'm not really good with this kind of stuff. Hope I hit the basics.
Excited to join the December 2017 Moms Group! My BFP was April 10, my EDD 12/19! I'm five and half weeks in, and this is my first. I turn 35 in two weeks.
I'm 31 and H is 32. We've been trying for about a year and a half, **TW** with three failed pregnancies (one MMC, one late 2nd trimester loss, and one CP). **end TW**. We're in the D.C. area and have two dogs that I just adore. We're both a bit sports obsessed - professional football (especially fantasy football) and baseball mostly, but my H is also a big college basketball person. In addition to sports, we're into hiking, cooking, beer and wine tasting (sad that I'll need to give this up), and travel. Looking forward to getting to know you ladies!
