Hi everyone! Just got my BFP two days ago and am happy to be here! This is my 4th pregnancy; my husband and I have an almost-3-year-old girl and 3 beans waiting on the other side. Like @Ellie433, my most recent miscarriage was in April. Right now, I'm just happy to be here and enjoying the time I have with the new little one moment by moment. I have been a part of the O15 and N18 groups and really enjoyed both! Looking forward to getting to know all of you!
Hi everyone! I just got my BFP yesterday. I had my IUD removed August 2nd, so I’m excited to be here so quickly. My DD is, I’m estimating, somewhere between April 27th and May 2nd, based on FDLMP or ovulation. I will likely have a RCS, as urged by my GI specialist and colorectal surgeon who I see related to my Crohn’s disease. I have a daughter who will be 2 in October. I’m 36, so AMA yay. I love my O16 bump mamas and am really active in our close knit Facebook group. Looking forward to hanging out here for this little one and getting to know y’all.
Hi! I used to be active in TTGP back in 2015, then moved over to IF after we started seeing an RE. We eventually had our daughter via IVF FET on 10/1/17. I just got a BFP yesterday, after we had gone to our RE to talk about our next transfer, and having sex once in our fertile window, because life is weird. Neither of us can believe this is real. EDD is April 29, 2019 based on my OPKs. I wasn't active in my O17 BMB because I was too stressed about everything going well, but I hope to be active here.
Now off to refamiliarize myself with the rules, and remember how to gif...
DD born PPROM preemie at 36 weeks on 10/1/17 after over a year TI, then 3 failed IUIs, and finally a successful IVF FET.
Due with #2 5/2/19 after HIO once in my FW, because apparently that's how life works now. Team Blue!
This will be babe #2 for DH and me - we are so excited that our 20 month old daughter will be a big sister!
EDD is April 23, my first ultrasound is booked for August 30th to see how things are progressing.
TW
I have a history of early loss so am being followed by my fertility specialist in early pregnancy. 2 miscarriages in 2016, then my daughter was born December 2016. I had my third miscarriage this past June while trying for babe #2.
End TW
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone, and to sharing exciting milestones along the way.
Hello all! STM here. This will be pregnancy number ten for me. We have been blessed with one rainbow DD, and hopefully will get our second rainbow with this pregnancy. EDD is April 29th.
Hi, ladies! My husband and I are having our first little one ❤️. I am currently 7 weeks along. She or he will be born in April, as per my LMP. My husband, one of my brother in law's, and my mother in law were all born in April, so it'll be a big happy birthday month haha. We were so surprised and so excited!
Hi all! Super excited to be here after 4 years TTC with our 1st! Did IVF and got our BFP Due date August 20th I believe (Haven't gone for 6 week scan yet)
Very excited to be expecting our first, due April 9th. Did IUI. Earlier this year, I thought I'd never be able to conceive due to diminished ovarian reserve. Wishing everyone the best in the months to come.
Hello ladies! My EDD is 04/25. DH and I have two girls, ages 8 and 5, and I am a SAHM. My “baby” just started kindergarten today. Cue the tears!
*TW* We had a loss last summer at 11 weeks so we are very nervous and haven’t told anyone yet about this pregnancy. Hoping to make it to April this time. *End TW*

Hi everyone! I'm excited to officially join as I lurked on these boards my entire first two pregnancies but never once posted. For some reason I feel the want/need to contribute this third time around. I have two kids, DD just turned 4 and DS just turned 2, and am now pregnant again due (I think) April 22. I was a high school English teacher for seven years but became a SAHM once DS was born. We were somewhat surprised by this pregnancy but had talked about trying for a third in a couple months. It doesn't quite feel real yet!
Hello ladies, I feel like I’m just sneaking in here with an EDD April 29th. I’m 35 and expecting my 4th. I was excited reading that there are a few of us 4th time round mamas. My boys are 10 & 6 and DD is 3. Hoping for another girl to even the numbers. I was quite active in my baby group with #3 and look forward to getting to know you ladies!
My EDd is April 22. So only 5w4d in and feeling anxiously excited. I have a 2.75yr old daughter and we’ve been trying for 1.5 yrs for baby no. 2.
I have ave pcos which makes it harder.
Turns out put on top of meds that I take for pcos I also had to exercise 4+ days a week for several months. Trying to keep the exercise up with pregnant to stay healthy. (Walks, hikes and bikes are my faves)
@h_skullington #4 here, too! It relieves my anxiety a little to know the are other big families out there. I have a 9 y.o., 6 y.o. and 14 mos old. Everytime someone says "Wow! You have your hands full!" I try to remember to smile and respond with "You should see how full my heart is!"
Hello I am Sabrina paul I have two boys one missed miscarriage and lost my baby at 21 weeks on august 2017 and now I am 7 weeks and 3 days and due april 8, 2018 according to my lmp but will know exactly when I am due on the 29th. I am terrified about everything and just want my rainbow baby. Let's hope for a sticky baby! Have a healthy happy 9 months everyone
Hi everyone! My estimated due date is April 11. This Will be our first. We almost gave up hope after trying for almost two years. We are beyond excited and hopeful baby is healthy. Ultrasound scheduled for Sept 14.
Hello everyone!!! I just got my positive test today! We were not trying for this one, so I’m still VERY much in shock, and kind of terrified. I am married and we have 2 little girls already, 2 and 4.5. They are amazing, but a HANDFUL as it is, hence being kind of terrified to add a third. I am really excited to be on this journey with you ladies!!!!! Hope for happy healthy regnacies for everyone!
Hello! I got my BFP this week. I think my EDD is April 27th. We were NTNP and have a soon to be 6 month old daughter. We were surprised but so excited! Our babies will be 13 months apart. I have my first dr appt/ultrasound on 9/14. I am 29, MH is 30 and we've been married for 10 years. Congrats everyone!
Me: 30 DH: 31 Married: May 2008 DD Born: March 2018 DS Born: April 2019 Due with #3 December 2020!
Nervous as all get out to be here! I'm 43, I have a DS who will be 8 in November and a DD who turned 6 a couple of weeks ago. I feel too old! 1st appointment next week. We'll see what they say!

@Merried_2008, if it makes you feel better, my mom had me when she was 45! She had my oldest sister when she was 23. There are 8 of us total . As for me, my DS will ve 5 when this little one arrives, so I feel you on the age gap. You've got this, mama!
Hi! I just found out that I'm pregnant again and feeling cautiously excited after going through a misscarriage earlier this year. This will be our first baby and me and my husband are longing to have another little life in our lives. I'm 33 and got diagnosed with PCO this fall, so had a bit of a struggle getting pregnant until I got put on hormone treatments which seems to have worked well and quite quickly. Now I'm really hoping it will go all the way this time! Expected due date April 19th. Oh and I'm Swedish (living in Sweden) but my husband is Canadian from Toronto, so we spend a lot of time there too. Excited to get to know the rest of you guys!
I’ve been diagnosed with PCOS and this is our 2nd baby! And we have the same due date!
Hi everyone! My EDD is 4/29. It looks like my second round of IUI (after a septum removal) took!! I’m 30 and DH and I have been trying for our first baby for a couple years now *TW*- I’ve had two losses, one at 13wks and one at 5wks, so I feel like I have a long road to feeling confident in this pregnancy.*end TW*
I’m excited to be here and am looking forward to getting to know folks!
@Merried_2008 Our kids are close in ages! My DD1 just turned 8 and DD2 will be 6 in Dec. How are you feeling about the age difference between your older two and this baby? It’s a lot bigger than I would have wanted but I think they will be some advantages to it! It’s going to be way different than last time!

Hi all! I got my BFP on this past Monday, and my due date is around April 28th. This will be mine and H’s first, *TW* and my second pregnancy (MMC about 5 years ago) /end TW I’m nervous as heck but also excited and feeling pretty good!

Thanks! That's amazing!
It's just so strange, my first two are so close in age and I feel so OLD this time, I mean I do and I don't. My age says I'm old but the rest of me doesn't. First things first I suppose. We'll see what the dr. finds!

@robyn2201 my dd1 was 8 and dd2 was 5 when H & I had ds (now 14 mos). Honestly? The age difference was simply amazing. My girls dote on their brother and absolutley love playing with him and "babysitting him". Their teachers told me it's all either one talks about! We have another on the way and I'm sure it will be the same.

The same! It's funny. I wanted a third from the time I had my DD. Then I finally gave up on it, just a couple of months ago. I told my husband on Monday - this Monday - to go get snipped. He's been wanting to do it for a while but I wasn't ready to close the door entirely. Crazy how things happen. I haven't told him yet. I'm scared. He's not going to be thrilled.
BUT I think the kids are going to love it! They have both always wanted a baby brother.

Yay! That’s so awesome!! I have a feeling they will be the same way. I’m just kinda nervous to go back to the baby stage. It’s been nice to travel without baby stuff and sleep in on the weekends!

@robyn2201 and not have to pour juice or buckle kids into their carseats or change a diaper... but i also get soooo many more snuggles now. And I feel like a pro, so there's that!
Hey Everyone!! I am so (cautiously) excited to be here. I found out today, and through my kindara app and an online calculator, my edd 4/30/19.. so I decided to join the discussions on the April board. I am feeling all of the feelings that come with such good news. DH and I have been trying for a while, and he couldn't be more excited. I just wanted to say Hi, and congrats to everyone else here!! This will be our first child. I am 35 and DH is 31

Hello all- I'm 41 (soon to be 42), and my DH is 45. Our estimated due date is April 20, 2019. We are an IVF success story. It's been a year of TTC , and we're staying optimistic and excited as we are in these early stages!
Hi everyone! My EDD is April 27th. This will be me and DH’s first child. We’re both 36, so we’ve had some anxieties about being a little older, but we’re both very excited!!!
Hi all!! STM and AMA here. DS will be 7 months old on the first so we will have 2 under 2. Got a faint line a few days ago and re-tested this morning. Got a definite line today so I’ll be calling my doc tomorrow!
Hi ladies! My EDD is April 27th! I'm really excited, although nervous, because I had an early miscarriage with my first pregnancy back in May. I found out I'm pregnant again a week ago. Hormones seem to be much stronger this time around (sore breasts and some nausea), so I'm hoping this is a positive sign. I'm excited to get to know you all a little and embark on this journey!
Re: Introduce Yourself Here!
