Lets try this again, shall we?
Re: Introductions 2.0
Hi Everyone!!! I have been waiting for this board to open!! I am so excited to be here!!! I got my BFP last Friday, 6/23 (got a super squinter on 6/21 and slightly less squinter on 6/22). Anyway, I have an 11 month old.. we wanted to have our first two close together but I am a little nervous about two under two!!! I am not exactly sure when my due date is. Somewhere between 3/1 and 3/5 as my LMP was 5/25, but I know for sure I ovulated late. I was active with my Aug 16 BMB and they are now some of my closest friends... the first to know about my BFP! Last pregnancy I ended up with cholestasis and had to deliver at 37 weeks. It is very common to have it in subsequent pregnancies so I may end up with a February baby. Congrats to all of you!!!
We conceived via IVF FET after a TW m/c in April (also a FET) end TW
I'm super excited to be here and get to know everyone. I have 2 daughters, and 2 furry babies. I used to be a nurse but am now a SAHM.
^^My cut and paste
Hi, everyone! First time mama here - with a due date of 3/1. I got my BFP on 6/18 but confirmed by blood test on 6/23.
****TW*****
After about a 2 year TTC journey - this is our 2nd FET. The first FET resulted in a chemical as well as my first natural pregnancy. We are cautiously optimistic that this baby is extra sticky (we've had really good betas). Longest I've been pregnant - so I'm taking it as a good sign
@scoogy19 I have an eight month old, so I know how you feel. Super excited to have sibling so close to each other, but also a little nervous for what that looks like for me with two under 2.
Edited to change old birth month club date. The 2018 due date for the next one threw me off, haha!
Hi! My name is Katie (28) STM here. I have a 16 month old. I decided to wait until I missed my period by a day or 2 until I took a test and got my BFP (today) 6/27/17 I am 4 weeks and 2 days pregnant with our 2nd! We are due March 4th ! Can't wait for this group to fill up!

Hi Ladies! My post is full of *TW* so I'll just make that clear up front. I don't even know why I have the balls to post here right now, but here I am.
I have been around TB for a loooong time - about a decade. I have a 10 yo and 5 yo. After a surprise pregnancy with my first, I have struggled with secondary infertility ever since. After 2 years of TTC #2, I was blessed with my 5 yo on a break cycle after having an allergic reaction to a fertility med injection. We started trying for #3 when my second was 6 months old, in mid-2012. After 4.5 years, I got a natural BFP last October and unfortunately lost my baby at 9+1 due to a massive SCH (I had also managed to contract parvovirus so I'm guessing that had something to do with it). After our loss, we decided to go back to the RE and began treatment with IUI. I managed to get a BFP on my 3rd IUI but not until a blood test showed a positive at 18 dpo with a beta of 11. It's been doubling with every test but with an implantation that late, the odds are not in my favour. Plan right now is to do a 4th beta tomorrow and if everything keeps progressing, an ultrasound next week. I'm so tired of being in limbo but it is what it is. Based on LMP, my EDD would be February 28, but based on the late implantation I'm probably about a week behind so I'd be due some time the first week of March. I don't have it in me yet to figure out an exact date.
Anyway, I just wanted to jump in and say hello. Being in such a precarious state, I probably won't participate much right now but I wanted to introduce myself in case things start to look up and you're wondering who this person is who all of a sudden starts commenting on things.
-----
UPDATE: My fourth beta came back today at 635 up from 251 two days ago, so a doubling time of about 35 hours. They scheduled me for an ultrasound in 2 weeks on July 13th - this wait is going to be pure torture. Hopefully I make it to u/s and get some good news.

***TW below: loss mentioned****
DH and I are both 39 and have one son who will be 6 in September. I was finally able to get pregnant again in July 2015, then had an early miscarriage. We had pretty much decided not to try for another one and were enjoying the benefits of having an only child... but today I realized my cycle was a couple days late. So here I am! I'm a little nervous because of the m/c but cautiously optimistic. My BFPs were squinters, but definitely a 2nd line on 3 different tests so I am hoping I O'd late (I always did before) and will get darker lines in the next several days. For now just excited to be here!!!
TTC #2 again: July 2017
DD is 16 months old and my EDD is March 3rd. *TW I also had an MMC shortly before DD was conceived* end TW. I recently made the decision to be a SAHM, so lots of changes going on in my life right now. Like a few people mentioned already, I'm excited/anxious to see how pregnancy will be with a toddler running around
My IVF DD is now 15 months old, so we decided to start trying again a bit early knowing it took us 6 yrs to conceive our first. Our 1st FET cycle has given us a BFP with an EDD of March 4th. Betas look good, so I'm causiously moving to the board.
Its nice to see some familiar faces, and I hope we all have an uneventful, H&H 9 months!
STM here, my son will be 2 in November too, @bravoandprosecco! I think my dd is March 3, but not sure. My son was on the line too, but I stuck through with November, so I'll probably do the same here.
This pregnancy was a surprise for us but we are excited! DS will be 4 on September 6 so I'm happy with the age difference even though we planned on waiting a bit longer.
I look forward to getting to know you all!
DS Born: 09/06/2013
BFP #2: 06/23/2017
Due Date: 02/27/2018
I got my BFP yesterday evening, slightly unexpectedly. We were TTC but our timing was terrible. I called my Dr this morning to get in for betas. Still waiting to hear that my order is in.
I have had four mcs and one rainbow baby. DD turned 2 a few weeks ago. This would be baby #6 and we're hoping for a happy, healthy and uneventful 9 months.
Based on LMP, my due date is 3/2. Looking forward to getting to know you all!
I'm everycol0r and have been a TTGP resident for around 3 years. I turned a digital test 2 days ago, MUCH to my surprise. My first beta looked good and I go back tomorrow for a redraw. All the fingers and toes crossed that things look good. We have one DD who is 3 1/2 and we are in the middle of buying/selling our home. I work in the health insurance industry.

We got our first BFP on 6/25 (squinter) and two nice lines on 6/26. This is our third and final, so I am hoping to soak up the moments as my "lasts" with this pregnancy while not letting it take away from all the fun that is to be had with my DD (3.5) and DS (1.5). I really enjoyed my last two BMBs as we made many good connections with incredible women--I can't imagine doing this one last time without such a crew!!
I have an appointment next week and a few days following to check out my betas and then make an appointment for a dating u/s. I have long and irregular cycles that make for a unique challenge in dating pregnancy, although with my DD and DS, I was spot on with my charting and certain of my EDDs prior to the dating scan. This time around I didn't do BBT, so my dates aren't going to be as accurate, which is moderately annoying to me, but I anticipate an EDD in the first week of March. I had two kids at 39w0d, so I may sneak into February, but I'd rather settle in to one BMB and stick to it. Who knows? Maybe I'll go late this time
I have one DS who will be 2 in August. I am still super involved with my A15 Bump Board and would love that experience again. I'm a SAHM with two Shih Tzus and a cat, and I follow wherever DH's job sends us. I'm slowly working on playing with/improving my photography skills and I love to plan our next adventure. Also, huge Disney nerd.
I also have a son turning 8 next month and a 15 month old daughter. I am due exactly 23 months after my due date with her and am excited to experience the closer age difference. I am currently a SAHM and I live in New Hampshire.
I am really excited to be here!
I am a mama of two beautiful boys aged 3 1/2 and 22 months. Pregnant with Baby number 3 due 3/2. So I will have three babes under 4. Currently a self employed/SAHM! Excited to be here and on this whirlwind crazy pregnancy adventure again.
Im going to be a second time mama and I am so excited! My EDD is 2/28 but I haven't been to my doctor yet so I don't have my official EDD!
I got my BFP the day before Father's Day! ♥️
i am a SAHM with my 17 month old little girl!

That said, a history of loss has always tinged my pregnancies with fear and anxiety, something I don't handle well as someone with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and GAD. I have been pregnant four times, but lost two pregnancies (one in August of 2011, and the second- a blighted ovum- in November of 2011). I delivered my Rainbow baby, a daughter, in January of 2013, and my second daughter in June of 2015. Both pregnancies were supported early on with progesterone in the form of Crinone, something I'll be repeating this time around as well.
I'm currently a SAHM, formerly a high school English teacher.
So here I am again, 3w5d pregnant (+ HPT yesterday with an EDD of 3/12/18) and scared out of my ever loving mind! Hoping to stick around with everyone for a while and get to know you.
Due March 12th!
My first baby will be four August 12th and she's very excited to be a big sister!
