@artemis618 LOL at *that other* school. So is it safe to assume one of you went to the University of Spoiled Children and one of you went to the prestigious and respected UCLA?
Hi all! My name is Katy and I’ll be a STM. My due date is around July 22, which is 2 days after my son will turn 2. *TW we had an early loss this past July over DS’s birthday, so we are very excited and hopeful for baby #2! *End TW I haven’t even scheduled my first appt yet, but I did go in to have my progesterone level tested. I remember it seemed like the first few weeks lasted foreverrrrr, but I’m trying to soak it all in now and try to enjoy it without worrying
Good luck to all of you mamas through your pregnancies and I’m excited to get to know you!
Hi everyone, so excited to be here! I'm 31 and self employed and DH is 33 and works in finance, we've been married 8 years and after lots of travels and adventures together are so excited to be expecting our first baby who I'm sure will be the best adventure yet! I just got my BFP on Sunday and my EDD is 25th July 2018.
We are already proud fur-parents to two beautiful pups, a golden retriever and a german shepherd mix and I can't wait for them to meet their new brother or sister!
I'm already dying to see our little babe on ultrasound but my first appointment with my OB's office won't be until 8-10 weeks which feels like forever away!
I'm so excited to be here. I'm 30 and DH is 35. This is our 3rd pregnancy. DD1 is 4 and DD2 is 3. We currently live in Yokosuka Japan, but I am a Florida girl born and raised! My EDD is July 18 for now. I am currently a SAHM since we moved her 3 months ago and am thinking about staying one for a little while.
Hi ladies! Coming over here from TTGP. I got a very faint positive test yesterday at 8dpo and the line is definitely darker today at 9dpo so I'm cautiously introducing myself over here. This is my 5th pregnancy and will be my 4th child. I have a 6yo son, and a 4yo daughter. We had a baby girl in 2015 but she passed away from her genetic condition/chromosomal abnormality at 5 weeks old. Our rainbow baby boy is almost 15 months old. I'm hopeful that things will progress well and this will be a healthy baby. I was a member of S16 and loved it so I hope to get to know all of you ladies and have another great BMB experience!

I'm a FTM due July 8th (and I am most definitely AMA). I've had a few losses over the past year-and-a-half, but we're trying a couple of different things this time around, so I'm more hopeful. I'm six weeks and two days along, and I can't wait to share the journey with everyone!
Hi everyone! I’m really happy to finally be on a BMB. We did IVF and I had my BFP confirmed today at my REs office. I have been active on the bump for some time, mainly on the IF thread in TTGP over the past few months. I think I’m due July 23rd and I will be a FTM. Looking forward to getting to know everyone throughout this journey!
Hello! I've been lurking for a few days but I haven't posted an intro. My name is Savanna, and I'm expecting Baby 2, EDD in mid-July. Our daughter just turned 2 in July (apparently we like July babies!).*TW* We had a very early loss in May but are hoping for an uneventful pregnancy this time around*End TW*
Hi everyone!!! My name is Nichole. This is my second pregnancy. EDD is July 1st! From Ontario, Canada. Myself and my husband have been together for 10 years. We have a 5 year old son. Been trying for baby #2 for about 10 months, so excited
Hi! I'm a FTM, age 31. I have anovulatory PCOS and low progesterone. This was my 4th medicated cycle with Femara, second cycle on a 7.5 mg dose of Femara, and first cycle with a Novarel trigger shot. I got my BFP on Sunday, and my beta yesterday at 12 DPO was 43. Since I used a trigger and was monitored, we know that I'm 3 weeks, 6 days pregnant with a due date of July 25. I'm currently on Metformin 2000mg and 100mg vaginal progesterone. I'm posting with caution because the PCOS puts me at a higher risk of loss. My next beta is tomorrow. Looking forward to meeting some other moms, especially PAIF moms. Frankly, I'm astounded that this worked, and I feel so lucky to be here. ETA: I was so sure this wouldn't work that I bought tickets to a wine and tapas festival on Friday. Still going and eating ALL the tapas.

Hi all! My name is Adi, I’m so excited for this forum!! I’m 31, married for just over a year, living in NY and currently 7 weeks. I have my first ultrasound next Monday and I can’t wait! I feel like I want to have it totally confirmed that I’m actually pregnant (even though I took 7 positive pregnancy tests at home
Hi ladies, I am a 28 year old cyber specialist and DH is 30 in Navy. This is our 3rd month officially trying for our 1st. According to apps and the internet we are due July 25th. I do trust the data since I’ve been tracking my timing for about 6 months now since my husband is stationed in a different state and timing would be everything. I was completely shocked yesterday as I was only 1 day late and extremely excited, I didn’t want to get my hopes up so I went to the store and purchased both time of the month products and a pregnancy test. I can’t belive I’m pregnant! We have a 9 year old dog that stays with him until our house in finished in March. I’m super excited to share the journey with everyone!
Hello! I'm Tommi. I got my positive pregnancy test yesterday morning. Due date is July 25. We've been trying for about a year and a half and have had two miscarriages. I am very happy to be here and have high hopes!!
My name is Ali and I just got my BFP TODAY. I woke up this morning, stomach felt a little unsettled and I was like “hmmmmm” so I took a test. This is very happy news for us. We have a daughter who is 3, and the March 2014 bump club moms have become some of my closest friends, despite our geographical distance. I am hoping to establish close friendships here as well!
About me...I just defended my dissertation in September, I’m a user experience design engineer. We live in Southwest Virginia and my husband is currently a graduate student.
On a personal note - I had a pretty uneventful pregnancy in 2013-2014. But at the very end something changed and I developed what they called “rapid onset severe pre-eclampsia”. I don’t mean to startle, especially the first time moms, but my pregnancy went from picture perfect to near death experience emergency c-section like *snap* that. I think the lesson learned here is to take really good care of yourself during pregnancy and listen to your body if you think something is up. You’re not crazy to call your doc or midwife between appointments and be like, “something is weird” (for me, it was a tingly feeling in my extremities, in hindsight it was probably my blood pressure). But despite it all, I happily wanted to try this again, and would love to hear from any pre-e survivor moms and if you got it a second time, also any VBAC moms, as that’s what we will hopefully accomplish.
Sorry to lay it all out there first intro, but in my experience bump moms are some of the most compassionate, fierce, amazing moms out there, who tell it like it is, and want to know what you’re about. So excited to be here!
EDIT: forgot to add my EDD is probably somewhere around July 25th which is going to be torture later hahah
Hi! My husband and I are both 32 and found out last week that we are expecting our 3rd (EDD 7/13). We currently have 4 and 2 year old sons. We are SO excited and anxious about adding to our family... and sometimes wonder what in the world we were thinking! Praying for healthy July '18 babies for all!
Hahahahah “wondering what in the world we were thinking” hahaha this is me and DH!
@beanship our stories sound similar (aside from the FTM thing). I also have PCOS and conceived 3 of my (now 5!) pregnancies with 7.5mg of Femara. I've had to have progesterone supplements in my last two pregnancies (but not my first two). I go in this week for betas so we'll see how my progesterone is this time. I hope everything continues to go well for you!

Hello Everyone! My name is Emily and I just found out Sunday that I’m going to be a mom!! My husband and I have been trying and had an early miscarriage in September. After that loss we decided to jump back on the horse and try again. I’m so excited and praying that everything goes smoothly with this pregnancy. ❤️
@knottie5c0735b0b5b7d66e welcome! I would suggest changing your screen name under the Knot account settings so we can remember you better it is hard to keep all of the knottie's straight Glad you are with us!
Hi all. I am due July 13th and have a 4 year old son, who was also born in July. I was a member of the July 13 BMB and I still talk to most of them every day.
TW Loss...
I lost my December 15 baby when I was between 15-19 weeks pregnant and we found out at the anatomy scan. It sucked a lot and it took 2.5 years and 2 rounds of IVF to get pregnant again. So now we are pregnant with a little girl. I hope it works out and am very scared.
happy to get to know everyone! Also really annoyed by the keyboard... why does it autocorrect real words

Hi everyone, I just found out I'm expecting and I'm due July 24. My husband and I also have a son who turned two in August. I really enjoy participating in the August 15 birth month group and look forward to participating here as well.
Hey all! Found out yesterday at 10dpo with some super squinty lines that I am expecting #2. Confirmed with another test this morning so here I am. Last month I used a FRER digital to confirm and it was faulty...giving me a timer and a yes which I didn't know til i went to bed meant faulty test, not positive, so I was a bit heartbroken! I have a 2.5 year old son.

This will be my third live birth but only second living child. I gave birth to a little girl with a heart defect in December 2016 and she passed away after 5 days.
End TW
I have been on TB with both of my previous pregnancies, and was active on TTGP the last few months. Those ladies were fabulous support and I am glad to join several of them here in July! My due date is July 26th according to the internets, and I am 4 weeks +1. I will likely join August as well when it opens up as both of my babies were born on 41+5 and induced, so I would bet money that my due date will really be August 8th! My birthday and my BIL's birthday are both in August so he/she will be in good company! Excited to get to know everyone and H&H 9 months!
Hi all! My name is Emily and I just got a BFP last night. It was a light positive on a FRER but not a squinter. Confirmed this morning and it's slightly darker. Will test again this weekend to confirm it is still getting darker and eventually cave for one of the digital ones so I can see the word "pregnant" on it.
This will be my first and I have been active on TTGP since August. My due date is July 29th according to FF. I may have to straddle with August since it's entirely possible I may be late. Who knows!
I am looking forward to getting to know you ladies! H&H 9 months
Good Morning and congratulations July Moms!!! I wish all of you very happy healthy pregnancies!!
I have a DSD 21 and a DSS 23, and I think I win the oldest Mom award for this Board at 43 yo. It feels scary to be the oldest here but I'm youthful for my age so I think my body can do this! I often get mistaken for my DSD's sister so hopefully I will blend in with all the young moms!
I met my incredible DH late in life and have only been married a little over a year. He always said he was done having kids, and due to my age I quietly accepted that my dream of having children would never come true....Until he told me last April that he wanted to have a baby with me! ❤️ My heart exploded!
Also- I am adopted, so I have always longed to look into the eyes of someone who shared my genes. I am so excited on so many levels by this fantasy of holding my little baby in my arms coming true!!
*TW*
We went for it last April and I got pregnant on the first try. Unfortunately we lost that little baby in June at almost 9 weeks. We were heartbroken but kept trying again & again and now here we are 5 cycles later... Giving it another shot. Please be our rainbow baby!
*End TW*
My doctor confirmed yesterday that we are due Late July. I worry about the risks at my age but the doctor is very positive so I guess there's no reason why we shouldn't be. He said I have at least 4 more years before I start breaking any records with him. He said that he's delivered Healthy Babies from women up to 47 years old! The journey has started and all we have to do now is pray for our baby.

I will likely join August as well when it opens up as both of my babies were born on 41+5 and induced, so I would bet money that my due date will really be August 8th! My birthday and my BIL's birthday are both in August so he/she will be in good company! Excited to get to know everyone and H&H 9 months!
Hi all! My name is Emily and I just got a BFP last night. It was a light positive on a FRER but not a squinter. Confirmed this morning and it's slightly darker. Will test again this weekend to confirm it is still getting darker and eventually cave for one of the digital ones so I can see the word "pregnant" on it.
This will be my first and I have been active on TTGP since August. My due date is July 29th according to FF. I may have to straddle with August since it's entirely possible I may be late. Who knows!
I am looking forward to getting to know you ladies! H&H 9 months
I have a DSD 21 and a DSS 23, and I think I win the oldest Mom award for this Board at 43 yo. It feels scary to be the oldest here but I'm youthful for my age so I think my body can do this! I often get mistaken for my DSD's sister so hopefully I will blend in with all the young moms!
I met my incredible DH late in life and have only been married a little over a year. He always said he was done having kids, and due to my age I quietly accepted that my dream of having children would never come true....Until he told me last April that he wanted to have a baby with me! ❤️ My heart exploded!
Also- I am adopted, so I have always longed to look into the eyes of someone who shared my genes. I am so excited on so many levels by this fantasy of holding my little baby in my arms coming true!!

We went for it last April and I got pregnant on the first try. Unfortunately we lost that little baby in June at almost 9 weeks. We were heartbroken but kept trying again & again and now here we are 5 cycles later... Giving it another shot. Please be our rainbow baby!

My doctor confirmed yesterday that we are due Late July. I worry about the risks at my age but the doctor is very positive so I guess there's no reason why we shouldn't be. He said I have at least 4 more years before I start breaking any records with him. He said that he's delivered Healthy Babies from women up to 47 years old! The journey has started and all we have to do now is pray for our baby.
