Re: Introduce Yourself Here

  • I am Clara, I'm 24, I'm a Hair Stylist, and I got my BFP today (First day of missed period) And I actually joined this site to join the TTC community, But I guess that's not neccesary, Huh? I am Married to the absolute love of my life, His name is Matty and He's retired Military (Retired before we met) And He is now an emergency Med doctor. 
    We have been trying for about three months to get pregnant and Out of these couple months, This month I was the least sure that I was pregnant after being three days late and still negative test last month (HPT and Doctors office blood test boh showed NOTHING at all.) However This month; I got my positive, So I feel pretty safe to post here right now. Especially because I need to find ideas on how to tell my DH!

    Hi All! I got my very very faint BFP last night, confirmed this morning. I think I’m 9dpo putting my due date at Jan 3rd, but my first came at 37w6d and I’ll be a repeat CS so I expect I will most likely be a December mom!

    I have a spouse of 9 years and 4 year old child. It took me a long time to feel ready to have another but we finally started TTC 3 months ago and got lucky this month!

    Hello all! 

    Just took a test at work about an hour ago and it was positive.  I think I'm due December 21st.  Can't believe it and can't wait a whole 4 more hours to tell my husband.  Good thing there's "The Bump":)

    I'm a veterinarian, 39 years old and currently have 3 boys 7, 3 and 1 with my husband.  I always join my birth month boards on the Bump and don't post enough and then feel like it's too late to catch up.  But I'll try to do better this time!  I enjoy hearing everyone's stories and knowing other women are experiencing the same process I am.  Congratulations to everyone!

    Hey Everybody!

    This is my first pregnancy. I got my BFP on Tuesday the 10th. I took 3 test to make sure I was seeing it correctly. I was! So, yaaayyy!!!!  According to my calculations I should be 6w 1d on today. Due date should be December 16.

    I am super nervous because I am having minimal to no symptoms. Some brown spotting which my OB's office assured me was normal, tender boobs, and the occasional cramping session other than that I feel completely normal.

    Because I feel normal I take another test. I know that sounds crazy, but this is my first and I dont think it has really sunk in. Last test I took was last Monday it was a Walgreens digital. It was positive, lol. My momma says I'm loosing it.

    My first appointment is on Thursday I hope to hear the heartbeat❤

    I also have 3 boys! Welcome!!
  • Hey all! Yesterday I got my BFP, so by my calculations my EDD should be 12/30. I’m 24 and SAH with my three kids (ages 4, 3, and 20 months). I’m planning to wait a couple weeks before scheduling my first appointment. 

    *TW*
    My last pregnancy ended in miscarriage last Nov. at 8 weeks, so I’m feeling all sorts of emotions. We’ve always wanted 4 kids, so we’re hoping this is really it for us.

    I’m really hoping to stick around and get to know you ladies better!

  • @katy0990 Thank you! Glad you’re back and hope you get to stay too!

  • Yay! so glad I found this thread! I found out I was pregnant after missing my period and taking a home test a few weeks ago. My doctor confirmed that I am about 7 weeks and I'll be due December 11! This is our first and we are so happy but totally in shock. We did IVF November-December 2017 because doctors scared us about my very low AMH for someone my age (I'm 32 and AMH was for someone 10 years older) and the shape of my husband's sperm. They said we'd have a 5% chance of getting pregnant naturally and since my insurance approved IVF we went for it. With 2 frozen embryos, we decided to hold off and try naturally just for one month and see what happens. Apparently that was enough because now I'm pregnant. A lot of money spent, feeling sick, and aggravation brought us to this point and it seems like it could have been avoided. 

    So it's great news and I'm trying to get into it but it's hard with my intense symptoms. I've already vomited twice and I'm having extreme cry out in pain cramping throughout the day but it's the worst before going to the bathroom and in the middle of the night. My work situation and long commute are far from ideal and I'm struggling to make it through each day. I've had to lie on the floor more than once in my not at all private cubicle far from the bathrooms located near copy machines that are never working and emoting strong chemical smells. Trying to stay positive and hoping I get to move my work space and feel better soon. Congrats to all!!
  • Hey ladies! Just got my BFP last Thursday (really faint, then another with a darker line Friday). My EDD is 12/29, and this will be our #3 and final (2 boys who will be 6 and 3 at the end of May and beginning of June).

    Last time around I was part of the June 2015 board, but didn't participate much. This time around; considering it will be our last, I have told myself I am going to embrace every single part of this pregnancy...ask me how I'm doing come November. I'm excited to have other mommies to share this experience with, because let's face it, as much as our significant others may try to sympathize with us, they just don't get it!

    Hello everyone!
    *TW*
    I actually created this thread 4 weeks ago, but it ended up being a CP. However, we kept TTC and here I am again!
    *End TW*
    My EDD is 12/31, so NYE! I am 27 and DH is 29. We have been married 5 years and have an awesome 2 year old DS. I was previously part of the March16 BMB, but it died off rather quickly. I am so excited to be here!!
    I was on March 16, too! I thought it was fairly active until after babies were born. Welcome back!

    DS2 due 12/12/18

  • Hi everyone! Got my bfp 2 weeks ago! It's our second go around (we already have a 3 year old son). March was the only month I decided not to track and didn't really try to get preggers because I wasn't so sure about having a Christmas baby and after a year of negatives, here I am! I live in NY, I'm 33 years old and am a licensed veterinary technician
  • @CecilB93 Glad tobsee someone else from March16. I thought it was pretty active until about third trimester when some of the more active posters switched to FB groups.
    @Selina1313 I have also been apprehensive about having a December baby. My due date is less than a week out from Christmas which I always said I wanted to avoid, but now as long as he or she is happy and healthy I don’t care when they come.
  • Hi! I'm a stm...dd born July 15. She was a fertility baby so happily surprised to be expecting #2 In mid Dec. (I have pcos and irregular cycles so going by lmp will have my due date off by a week or so) we were planning to go back to the specialist next month.  Like others, I'm apprehensive about a December due date with Christmas so close, but I'm thrilled to be expecting #2!

  • @katietheboymom I am a mom of 3 boys also!  And I agree - we haven't told many people outside of family yet, but I'm dreading the "are you hoping for a girl" comment. I really have no opinion either way, if it's a boy - great, I know how to do boys, if it's a girl - great, I'll have a new adventure! 
  • Hello everyone!  I'm cautiously dipping my toe into this BMB, although I feel so far behind by now.  I got my bfp on April 14th after 11 months of trying.  I have one DD who also took 11 months, and *tw* a miscarriage at 9 weeks after 13 months of trying *end tw*.  DH and I will have been married for 10 years in July.

    Hi everyone! I got my BFP on 4/13. Cautiously optimistic with an EDD of 12/19. Looking forward to being part of this group! I have one DD who turned one earlier this month and we're thrilled to have a sibling for her. 
  • @NickNack11 very cool. Is this your first baby?
  • @mcondon150 Hello, fellow Denver Mom!  I used to live in City Park (just north of the golf course).  We're in Thornton now but miss so much about the old neighborhood.

  • @krob upstate a little, in the Hudson valley
  • @NickNack11 Wow! Ok. Are you having any symptoms? I'm only having cramping and breast tenderness. The cramping only comes on when I have gas, lol or drink caffeine (I love sweet tea) not anymore cause the cramping is out of control when I drink it.
  • Hi everyone! FTM here, just got the news last week. It was super unexpected, but we're both so excited :)  I had my first ultrasound yesterday. We thought that I was 7.3 weeks along, but I guess I'm measuring at about 5.4 instead, so I guess that puts my due date around 12/21. 
  • @byrdiebabee lol ! Well that’s good you know what can trigger it! Exhaustion is my number one symptom and bloating is second. And I’m hormonal and hungry lol. I have tiny waves of nausea but nothing terrible. My twin started to have morning sickness at week seven so I’m bracing myself for it to start soon!
