Hi everyone! I am 30, DH is 32. We have 2 girls under 5, one who just turned 2 last week, and 3 crazy big dogs. I was in the D16 group and still active on FB, and in the May14 group before that.
Due date is somewhere between the 19th and 23rd depending if I go on LMP or my suspected ovulation date. Ill be calling my doctor next week. I'll also be high risk due to a rare heart condition. I also dont plan to tell DH until Christmas Eve. So that'll be fun keeping it a secret for 2 weeks.
@aevan011 HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY! I had to come out of cautiously lurking when I saw you!!!! Congrats! Glad to see a familiar face over here. I also have not announced on the group yet.
Hello, ladies! I've been lurking for a day or so, now cautiously jumping in! My EDD is around August 20, first doctor's appointment in January (I will probably be a bundle of nerves until then). I'm an elementary school teacher from the Northeast, DH and I have been married for 9 years and this will be our first baby. We have a 9 year old mutt who we absolutely adore. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone!
People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

Hi all! This is baby #3 and our last for DH and I. We’ve been married 5 yrs and have two awesome boys ages 4 and almost 3 (just a few weeks away from his birthday!) I’m 38 now but feel great! I’ve wanted a third since the day that I had my 1st! I just didn’t think it would happen for us for various reasons, one of them being my age. But.... Surprise, Surprise! I’m returning to the bumb because I’ve had a great experience in the past and am quite close with my first BMB. We took things to fb after our kids were born. I wouldn’t be half the mom that I am without them.
@sourlemon I just told me husband tonight(wanted to wait until our 10 year anniversary) So I had to wait 2 1/2 weeks before telling him, so I know how you feel girl!
@sourlemon HEYYYY!!!! Congrats!!! I planned to tell the group today but a random post kinda stopped me. Trying to be sensitive to others’ struggles, but maybe I’m overthinking it. I’ll likely post in the next few days. I’d wait to tell family but everyone flies in for Christmas the 21st - same day as my first appt...so, I’m kinda forced!
*lurkey loo* @emeraldduchess Yassss!!! I was wondering where you were! Congrats and happy 9 months!!

Hi! My name is Courtney and I’m pregnant with baby #2. My due date is 8/6. My daughter is 3 1/2 and we plan on telling our family we’re pregnant on Christmas! 😍
Hello everyone! Got my BFP on Monday... I'm 3w5d, EDD Aug 23. This is my third pregnancy and third time on TB. I have a daughter who will be 3 in January (and my Jan '16 ladies are my best friends who I still talk with daily) and a daughter who turned 1 in November (my Dec '17 group is still super active in our private FB). I'm a happily married 31 year old stay at home/work from home mom from South Central Wisconsin. I do social media and marketing for a small lifestyle/home decor company. Excited to get to know everyone here! 😘
Hi.... I’m moving over here from TTCAL after a beta that more than doubled today. I was fairly active when pregnant with DD on the Feb 16 board. I’ve had a MMC and some chemical pregnancies since DD (1 MMC prior to her) and am now seeing an RE who has me on lovenox for a positive TPO antibody test. I’m really hoping that it helps this time around and that I get to stay here.
I’m a teacher and when not supervising tiny humans, I love traveling, reading, and baking.
Hi everyone, DH and I are both 31 and expecting our 2nd child on Aug 14th. DD is 3 1/2 and I’m trying to wrap my head around getting excited again after *tw-loss* a MC in July (at 10.5 weeks). Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Im Kelsey, 27 years old for another couple months. EDD is August 8! This will be mine and my bfs first baby and we have a 7 month old puppy who runs the house and is in for a rude awakening once the baby is here lol. I work at a warehouse that will be laying us off for the winter until the spring so I’m looking forward to that haha. My bf works at a mill. I haven’t told him that I’m pregnant yet because we’ve both had a pretty brutal year and *tw - I had a MMC* so keeping this under wraps until first ultrasound January 8! Its killing me haha. I had to tell my best friend because I had to have someone to talk to about this. Anyways I’m looking forward to getting to know all of you other ladies
Hi Aug '19! I'm a FTM, age 35. DH is 37 and we've been married for 10 years. I won't know my official EDD until my first appointment in early Jan, but the online calculators say Aug 11.
Looking forward to spending the next 9 months here!
Coming over from the TTC board. Still in shock about being able to post here - after 23 months of TTC and many failed rounds of fertility protocols, our new RE benched us this cycle to run some tests before starting a new protocol in the new year. I've had a drawer full of Amazon cheapie PG tests and started testing at 8DPO this cycle (because I have no self control, apparently). 8 and 9 DPO tests were negative, but this morning I got my first BFP ever! Just to be sure, I've taken a FRER and a CB test since then - all positive!
First appointment for us will be in January, but we're going in to get blood test results and say goodbye to our RE tomorrow! Due date should be ~August 26, 2019.
DH and I have been married for almost five years. We have three dogs and a cat, and this will be the first grandbaby for both of our families.
Awwww kels I'm so glad you're here and hope this is your rainbow baby. I know it's hard and scary. Sending all the hugs and good thoughts

Hi ladies! I’m due August 9th (by my own calculations, DR appointment next week!) and I’m super nervous! This will be my first! Been researching and ‘preparing’ for months as DH is just finishing up a residency. Timing it perfectly for when he’s done. We’ve been together for 9 years and I cannot wait to have a LO with him 😍
Hello Everyone I’m new to this app so sorry if I didn’t not introduce myself before I posted ? I’m 28 this is my second pregnancy I’m about 7 weeks due August 4th . And I have a 3 year old . Hoping everything goes ok I forget how stressful first trimester can be .
Hi ladies! First time Mum here from Nairobi, Kenya. I'm 26, DH is turning 31 in a month and we've been married for 2.5 years. Been TTC from March this year and got our BFP on 2nd cycle of Letrozole. I'm due on August 6th as per due date calculator but will be going in for doctors appointment on January 4th. Looking forward to a wonderful time here ❤️
Hi there all! STM with ED 8/21. DD is a Jan15 and about to be 4. I was super active on the bump with her, but went over to Facebook and haven’t been back since. DH and I have been trying to a year, this was the first month of no longer trying because I was planning on going to law school next fall. Finished applying and the next day I got this wonderful surprise! Looks like a completely different August than planned. I just tested yesterday so I’m still adjusting to the news. Had finally accepted being a one child family. Telling DH tonight!

Hey Ladies! I’m cautiously excited.
I have two sweet daughters (5 and almost 3) and a wonderful husband .
Ive had an interesting 1.5 years with my OBGYN .. we decided to try again for a third and we found my iud had perforated my uterus requiring a major surgery.
TW
After healing, our first attempt ended in a ruptured ectopic and loss of tube.
followed by a missed miscarriage a few months later.
this is our last pass at bringing home another baby . We are nervous but excited and keeping hopeful
edd is 8/12 but we will go a week early for a repeat csection !
lots of hope and sticky love to you mommas
September Siggy Challenge : Favorite Childhood Movies ( Sorry I have two)
Wishing all of you a safe journey and blessed babies. This is my 2nd pregnancy, the first one ended in a still birth just a week before due date. I was devastated but so happy to be pregnant again. I pray I get to take this one home with us. Hopefully it will be a twin this time around ah... A girl can dream right!
My husband and I have been married for 4 years. I will be 30 next year God's willing and He will be 37. This will be our first baby to go home with (ay God is good).
According to Flo, my due date is August 19th more or less. My first doctor appointment is on the 10th of January. I can't wait to hear the heartbeat! God is good! Won't He do it?
PS: This time around we may not tell anyone until after birth. I would hate to hear "I am sorry again" l learn a valuable lesson, everyone grieves differently. I am one of those people who would rather dance, shout out the name of the Lord, listening to some amazing jokes, hearing people laughing , having a good time rather than sit around and heaeing people telling me "I am sorry"....
Hi everyone! I’m cautiously excited to be here. My EDD is 8/11 but will most likely have a c-section at 39 weeks as I did with my first. I have a 4 year old son but this is my 5th pregnancy I am really hoping this is our take home baby. So far betas are good and early ultrasound was promising!
I’m a Program Director for a domestic and sexual violence services organization in Michigan. DH is an elementary school principal.
I had a fantastic experience with my N14 board and am still in touch with several ladies from that group,so I’m excited to get to know all of you!
Expecting baby #4 8/21. I have 3 from my marriage (7,5,&4) and this is my first with my boyfriend. I also had a surro-baby this past July. Yes, this little one was a surprise, but we are getting very excited for him/her. I’m a labor & delivery nurse and currently in grad school for midwifery, and my boyfriend is in grad school for his MBA. We live a busy life but we’re excited for this journey together!
looking forward to getting to know you all. Been around since my first baby (Aug 11!) and still close to that group of girls through our FB page
Hi all! I was posting on the July board, but my doctor gave us an official August 2nd due date yesterday, so I’m moving here
I’m 33, MH is 35. This is our first, and we’re very excited! I’m an attorney in Austin, TX. 7+1 today, and I’ve been on the nausea and exhaustion train the last 2 weeks.
Hi! TW I'm cautious to get involved with the BMB right away as I just had a MC in Sept; But I think I really need the support through the early stages of pregnancy so I'm hoping this is helpful. My husband and I are both 32 and have a son who will be 3 in March. My EDD is August 19. Looking forward to getting to know you all!
