Waiting for a September 2018 board to open

onechoctawgirl

Hi, all just introducing myself here. I found out I was pregnant about two days ago and now I noticed there is no September 2018 board up so I suppose I am extremely early in finding out, but in the meantime this is my second pregnancy and I am very excited! My first little one is just a little over nine months. I know this will make two of them very close in age but since I will be turning 37 next month I didn’t really want to wait many years in between having another.

Hi! I noticed that too. I should be due Sept 2018, God willing. We must both have early due dates!

Waiting for Sept 18 board here as well!! Due 9/2. Hopefully soon a new board will open! 

SkilledSailor

The new BMBs usually open the first of the month. Should go up 1/1 but may be a day late since that's a holiday. My EDD is 9/3. I found out a week ago and have felt a bit "homeless" when it comes to the boards, haha. 

onechoctawgirl

Oh well. Glad to know I am not the only one

lumosmaxima

Good to know @SkilledSailor! Thanks for the info. Labor day EDD over here

Hello Ladies! I found out a couple days ago that I am pregnant! Due date is the 7th of Sept. This will be my second.

Hello! I’m also waiting for the Sep ‘18 board to open. I found out on Christmas Day that we were expecting. The current due date is 9/2 and my first appointment will be 2/1. I have a 22 month old son. This pregnancy is already so much different that my first.  

@megnwingate hello due date buddy

Hello, ladies!  @SkilledSailor @lumosmaxima  @megnwingate. @xxkberxx  @raiterae  @Vivandiere8
Great little group already!  Hope we don't have to wait too long with the holiday for our Board to appear.

I'm 4 weeks today, (PAIF, PGAL), and turned a digi a couple days ago, so that was an awesome Christmas miracle for us!!!  This will be our first, God-willing, but we hope to have more before too long, since I will be 35 already when babe is born, tick tock. Lol. EDD for now is 9/9...

@lumosmaxima. HEYYY!!!  So awesome to see you on the other side!  When is your first scan?

lumosmaxima

@Vivandiere8 I'm so sorry to hear that. 

Possible TW?

I had some bleeding with our first and things turned out to be fine, but I know it is incredibly scary. I also unfortunately know that feeling of "just knowing" when things aren't ok.


End TW
I hope the best for you, you'll be in my thoughts.

@BusinessWife Second  *edit THIRD week, already getting ahead of myself* week of Jan, feels like a long time but I know it's not, I just keep reminding myself of my numbers and taking comfort in that. You? 

Also, off topic, but I'm new to TB on mobile, does it not accept some emojis? Maybe I need to click around for tutorials. Very different than on a real computer.

[Deleted User]

@lumosmaxima. I think the red heart is possibly the only emojii that works.  If you tap the smiley face drop-down in the middle of the tool bar above the text field, you will see a few of the bump's emojiis, but there are more if you play around with the : emotion :  So : smiley : with no spaces is :smiley: but the emojii in your phone's keyboard won't work. :/ 

My second beta is Tuesday, then my first scan is a week later.  I won't expect to see the heartbeat yet though till the next one, probably around the same time as yours.

starla

Hey ladies! We found out on Christmas that we're expecting. I'm due 9/8. *TW* I've had two late first tri losses and a CP (last cycle) so I'm pretty nervous. *End TW* I'm a FTM. Can't wait for the Sept board to go up!

@Vivandiere8 How are you holding up? I hope you can get in to see a doctor and that it's nothing to be concerned about. 

[Deleted User]

@starla. I will have absolutley everything crossed for your little start!  Do you have an apt to see the doctor yet?

@Vivandiere8. ((((Hugs))))  How are you doing?

lumosmaxima

Congratulations @starla! I am so sorry for your losses. I am hopeful that this is your rainbow baby!

Keep checking to see if the board is up.... I got a positive on Saturday (and Sunday...and today...Keep checking because of pgal brain), EDD is Sept 10. *TW* Here after a mc and d&c in september, plus live birth may '16, and ectopic and mmc in 2015. *end TW*  this round I have a non-firm dx but being treated for likely hashimotos with thyroid meds, plus progesterone suppositories, so I'm a little more hopeful than in september, plus I'm back with my RE as this was a medicated cycle and Sept was not. Fingers crossed for me and everyone else Here! 

SkilledSailor

@Vivandiere8 I hope things are looking better for you today! Keeping my FX for your little bean! 

@businesswife I am so excited for you! That's nice you get to have an US so soon, even if you can't see the heartbeat yet. My first one is on the 11th. 

@starla Hey! What a great Christmas present!! Crossing everything that this is your take home rainbow baby! 

@Jyoung327 Glad you're already feeling better about this one! It is nice to be with an RE the first few weeks. I feel like they take our concerns more seriously. 

starla

@BusinessWife We've been with the fertility clinic for all our testing so I'll stay with them until at least 12-13 weeks. They told me that they usually keep patients until 20w! Our ultrasound is scheduled for the 22nd.

@jyoung327. Congratulations!!!!  So happy to see you here! :)

@starla omg wow, that's a long time!  I think graduate from the RE at 8 weeks, same time we taper down from PIO to suppositories, 01/29

Congratulations to everyone so far!! I can’t wait to get to know y’all more. 

@Vivandiere8 I have my fx for you! Hoping the bleeding isn’t anything 

lumosmaxima

@Jyoung327 congratulations on your bfp! And second bfp! And third...;) 

TW

I had a recent mc/d&c as well, in October, and PGAL brain is very real, I'm discovering. Managing the nerves this time around has been a challenge. I'm very sorry for your losses. 

End TW


Congratulations @eleven_! What a sweet Christmas present!

lumosmaxima

@SkilledSailor wow less than two weeks till your US! I hope it goes by super quick for you!

eleven_

@lumosmaxima I'm so sorry for your loss in October. FX that this is your rainbow baby    P.S. I love your screen name!

@eleven_ Congratulations!  Nice to see another TTGPer on the board!!! :smiley:

lumosmaxima

Thanks @eleven_! I know it's not very original but I am a Harry Potter nut. My favorite quote is "happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light"  

eleven_

@BusinessWife Thank you! I'm incredibly happy for you. I have read a lot of your journey and was so excited to see you on the grad thread. 

@lumosmaxima Such a good quote! I can't wait until my kids are old enough to read the illustrated versions with them.

Another 9/2 EDD here!  Also had been looking for the Sept 2018 board.

onechoctawgirl

Hi ladies, thanks for the well wishes. I don’t know anything official yet. Because it’s the holiday weekend I didn’t bother to call my ob yet. But I have been bleeding each day as though on my regular period. No horribly painful cramps or anything so I don’t even know if I want to bother going to the doctor. I feel like I already know the answer. (Even though I keep reading these posts from woman claiming they had their period for half their pregnancy I just can’t believe I am still pregnant.) I don’t feel the symptoms I was days ago. But if some miracles happens I will be sure to let you all know.

Also @eleven_ lol at your giff!

CSchoFink

@Vivandiere8 I’m sending positive thoughts your way—I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Best of luck...

After 5 months of trying, we finally got a BFP (or 3) the day after Christmas. Now I’m waiting on my second beta (results later today...FX). EDD 9/4!!! Nice to meet you all and I hope our board is up soon!

starla

I'm so sorry @Vivandiere8. I hope it works out OK for you. 

lumosmaxima

I'm so sorry @Vivandiere8

(((Big hugs))) @Vivandiere8. Hoping for the best... ❤

Congratulations @CSchoFink in your bfp!  (All three lol)  I feel like I'm missing something tho.  Why did you say "finally" after just five months, and having betas drawn?  It looks like you have been on tb for a while, but forgive me, I don't now your story, and I can't see doggies on mobile. Siggies, either! lol@autocorrect

SkilledSailor

@businesswife Re-reading your earlier post I saw you want to have #2 soon after this little bean. How soon after your first are you allowed to do an FET? Also, did you do the PGS testing? I can't remember. If so, does that mean you already know the sex of your babe? 

@eleven_ Hey! So happy to see you here! 

@lumosmaxima Thank you! I'm definitely anxiously awaiting it! I'm sure you understand the feeling, haha. Is yours early in the third week? 

@vivandiere8 *hugs* So sorry you're going through this. 

[Deleted User]

@SkilledSailor. Yes!  I will be 35 God-willing, when this little bean is born.  We got 7 to freeze over two rounds of ivf, and have five left. None were pgs tested, so we dont know the sex, and the plan is to just transfer them all one by one and hope for the best!  If we were to have three failed cycles, insurance would cover PGS  (assuming I stay at this job after baby, which I may not), so I guess technically I have the possibility in the back of my mind of another retrieval if subsequent transfers were to all start going horribly horribly wrong. :/  and then we might be more open to pgs at that point.  But for now we are Team Green, and we don't know the sexes of the embies waiting for us either!  Keeps it exciting that way, the mystery, I think. ;)

But we will have to see again what the doctor says about TFAS, since i honestly cant remember what she said.  It definitely depends on what kind of l&d experience we will have had for the first.  I think after vaginal delivery, they will attempt FET after 6 months, maybe?  I think?  And then I know the wait is longer after a c-section, for sure.  One more reason we hope for a vaginal delivery, if at all safe/possible.  Also, even as I get older, my eggs will still have been my 34 yo eggs, so I have a feeling my doctor will want to keep sticking with eSET (elective single embryo transfer.)  I have my work cut out for me!!! Lol
