Introduce Yourself Here!

booksandlace

Hello everyone, I'm hunkered down in my parents house under mandatory evacuation from a fire. I am so scared. I just got my BFP due 4/18. This will be our second LO.

*Trigger warning*

We had a loss in June and I'm scared of another, hoping this baby sticks

Yikes @booksandlace stay safe!!

Hello all! Expected due date is April 9th,  we have a 6 year old daughter. Hoping for another girl but we may keep the gender a surprise like we did with our first born. Haven’t told anyone just yet not even our daughter waiting a little while before we make the announcement 

samott

Hi ladies! Got my positive test 2 weeks ago, and confirmed with a blood test. Not 100% sure I should be in this group though, because although my due date will be in April, I'll probably deliver earlier (March maybe) due to Type 1 Diabetes. Can anyone advise?

Hi everyone! Found out Wednesday night, due April 18th. First child, completely unexpected/unplanned, but excited regardless.

rosalie0208

Hi, ladies! My EDD is April 8. We have a 2 year old daughter and are excited for her to be a big sister! *TW* We had a miscarriage in Feb. of 2015 and again in Feb. of 2018 so I’m sill feeling nervous, but my beats have been strong and today’s ultrasound at 5 wks and 4 days looked good. So here’s to hoping we all have healthy pregnancies!!

Congratulations and welcome new mamas! @samott you can go wherever you want. You’ll probably hit the major appointments (genetic screenings, glucose screening, etc) in time with April, and there will be a number of us that deliver before April for whatever reason, but if you’re on the cusp, you can consider participating in both groups or just choosing whichever you’re more comfortable in.

I love the mix of experience we have in this group!

Hi! EDD 4/12, I have twin boys who are almost 2 (eek I will have 3 under 3!!). 
This is the shock of a lifetime as I was diagnosed with blocked Fallopian tubes and told I wouldn’t be able to conceive naturally and we were not even trying! Had my boys after years of IVF and 5 IVF miscarriages. This little one is a true miracle! 

camelina

I still can't believe I'm pregnant! We've been trying for 4 years, and did one (unsuccessful) IUI with hormones in February. Now here I am, 6 weeks pregnant, naturally. It's a dream. It's also surreal. I'm honoured and can't believe I'm part of a preggo forum! ❤️

Smith7000

Hello! Due April 21 - so excited I can’t sleep! We have a 2.5 year old boy. That pregnancy was a breeze so anxious to see how this will be. 

sheepshepherdess

I honestly can't believe I'm here. Have been trying for a little over a year, and the last couple months did 3 IUIs. Tested today and got my BFP, so I guess the 3rd one worked! EDD 4/19. I am so scared of MC or CP as my mom had a couple around me and my sister, but hoping everything sticks. 

Good to see some familiar faces here, I already miss the TTGP board 

ashtuesday

Hi all!  I'm Ashley.  After a MMC and CP, my husband and I had a beautiful baby daughter - 6 months ago!    This current pregnancy (EDD 04/18) is VERY unexpected but very welcome, especially because of our difficulty TTC in the past and our desire for a big family.  Looking forward to getting to know you all over the next few months!

Oksana1987

Hello ladies.  My name is Oksana and my due date is on April 12. I'm 31 and this is my first baby. I am uber excited and extremely paranoid. Google is evil and doctors dont see you soon enough lol 

ShallowSeas

Hi ladies! I got my BFP on 8/8. I have a 21 month old daughter. My EDD is April 19th.

RainNFyre

Hey - EDD 4/10 by LMP. Totally unplanned pregnancy at the ripe age of 38. I have a DD who will turn 3 in September (and is currently refusing to potty train and giving up on naps). Spent many years going through infertility treatments and really thought I could never get pregnant again.

peaceinnature

Hello!  Due Date April 15th, third baby, just turned 36.  I have two year old and six year old boys.  Super excited for what will most likely be my last baby.  Really savoring being pregnant again despite symptoms starting extra early this time.

suzycupcake

@sheepshepherdess I am so so happy for you honey!!!!!  

sheepshepherdess

Thank you so much @suzycupcake!! I didn't want to just abandon the TTGP board, but I haven't been active for very long so no announcement. I'll be waiting for your name to show up over here  

50Wife

@sheepshepherdess congrats, girl! 

footdrbritt

Hi everyone! Due April 20th, I have a 16 month old and am super excited for this new addition! 

b9315

So excited to be here!!!
EDD is April 11 and this is my first! I am so incredibly excited and also slightly freaking out. Cannot wait to start a family!

Merinmac

Hi ladies! I love how happy and excited everyone is. ❤❤❤ I'm 38 years old, due April 3. I have a 2-year-old daughter.

*TW*
I've had 3 miscarriages, the most recent just 3.5 weeks before getting this BFP. I was just waiting out the cycle so we could try iui again, but it happened naturally! I was so shocked! Really hoping and praying this one will stick. Everything seems good so far.

wearegroot

Hi everyone! I’m currently 5w4d along with baby number 2, although I expect that to change once I go for a dating scan. My cycles are irregular and my son was two weeks behind where my LMP predicted at his dating scan, but he was a healthy 9lbs at birth (so if anyone freaks out that their dates are off...it’s ok!).

My son just turned one a few weeks ago so these kids are going to be about 21 months apart! 

HoltzBaby

Good morning. My name is Rebecca and we just found out about baby number 4! We currently have 3 girls. This is our last one so it’s exciting and sad all at the same time. My EDD is April 3 but I have a feeling it’s going to change once I see my OB. We live in Seattle WA. Any other moms in the area??

kattle

Hi All!
Happy to finally be able to post. First baby, EDD 11th April, super excited and impatient. We were super lucky as only started trying at end of May.
Have already told immediate family and friends as I am a sharer and couldn't wait (haven't told my 3 yr old step daughter though, cant wait till we can but will be waiting months for that!). Plus I would want the support if something were to go wrong. Still felt like I was breaking the rules telling people though!!
Hoping all goes well, bit nervous and am counting down till our first scan and till we are able to find out all if well, healthy (and the gender!)
Look forward to sharing this journey with you all xx

HoltzBaby

I had the same problem with my second daughter. I stayed in my due date month because then I had other moms that were having the same problems and stress I was. It helped to really be on the same part of my pregnancy although now my daughter is one of the oldest in our group. I hope that helps

molecularmolly

Hello! My name is Molly and I am nearly 5 weeks pregnant for the first time! My husband and I use symptothermal NFP for avoiding pregnancy normally, and decided we were ready to get pregnant last month, and boom! It was God's plan too :-). We have been married 4 years this month and live in Washington state USA.
I am a trained birth doula (and a biochemist :-) ), and look forward to going through this journey with you all! Ironically I don't actually know too much about BEING pregnant, especially 1st and 2nd trimester so I've been researching like crazy.

kangstadt

Will definitely be picking your brain, @molecularmolly! I'm hoping to hire a doula and have a natural unmedicated birth, but not sure we can afford it.

AliMags

Hi - my EDD is April 21 and I’m super excited to be here. This will be our second child, we have a 3 year old girl and have been TTGP for about a year, was just about to start fertility treatments when I got the BFP!

aqualicious

Hi everyone!  I’m a FTM at 37, we’ve been trying for 5 (almost 6!) years to get pregnant, and it finally happened!  No medical intervention, so naturally we were shocked.  I’m 7 weeks, EDD is April 1.  So far I’ve been nauseous and so very tired.  Baby is measuring right on track, and heartbeat was 130 beats a minute on Thursday.  (Dr squeezed me in because I called worried, and he basically said he did it to calm me down- I love my doctor).  
Hoping for an uneventful 9 months for all of us! 

Tulips1233

Hi ladies - I am so excited to be joining the group! I’ve been off birth control for just over a year, so I’ve been anxiously awaiting finally getting a bfp! I am a first time mom with estimated due date of 4/18

alexand-3

Hello! so glad to be here! I was on the TTGP board for a bit, I received my BFP yesterday so I finally get to come over here!
My EDD is April 13th. So far my only complaint is fatigue.We are going green this time around since this is our third and final! Cant wait to continue on this journey with all of you!

Piccola1988

I can't believe I am posting here again so soon, but yet here we are!  Based on my LMP I'm due April 16th, but it's probably more like April 21st.  I just had a baby boy in December who is just shy of 8 months old, so it looks like we are going to have 2 under 18 months   

mrstmoose

Hi! My EDD is 4/20. *TW* We had a MC in October 2017 and after charting my temps, my OBGYN referred me to a RE since I would need medication. We did two rounds of timed intercourse with Femara, trigger shot, and Progesterone. We got pregnant on the second month of TI *end TW*. 

We have a 2 year old and are super excited to add to the family!

ETA: I was an active member of May 16 and still very active with those gals.

jrm_14

Hi  Tw- m/c
After a myriad of IF dx, 4 Injectable IUI cycles, and a pregnancy loss in March 2018, 4th time was the charm!  I’m unsure of my EDD. Due to it being a treatment cycle, LMP doesn’t line up with when I actually triggered & ovulated. 

I am from the Midwest, and this will hopefully be it first child. Missing my TTGPers so much, yet so thankful for the genuine support I had there. 

mrstmoose

@jrm_14 - when I was active on TTGP 3 years ago, they were the best group of ladies. I'm still friends with a bunch of them and have even met one IRL. 

50Wife

Hi @jrm_14!!!

jrm_14

@50Wife Did I miss your intro in this board??  I was thinking I hadn’t seen you over here yet. 

50Wife

@jrm_14 Yea it's in here somewhere!
