Hello ladies! I am 31 and dh is 33. We have a 7 year old daughter a 5 (6 next month) year old son. TW This is my 5th pregnancy. I had a loss between my kids at 14 weeks and last year I had a malignant molar pregnancy and was unable to try again for a long time. We unfortunately can’t rule out molar pregnancy until around 13 weeks, so I have to have a lot of betas and ultrasounds. We can’t rule out choriocarcinoma until after I deliver and the placenta is checked. End TW
ETA, I entered the wrong date in the due date calculator because I am a bit of an idiot, so I am actually due in September!
Hi! FTM. This is our second pregnancy. We found out we had a failed miscarriage in July at 13 weeks so I am slightly terrified, but really hoping this one sticks.
Hey Everyone!! This will be my third go around, and we hope this time everything goes smoothly. I'm 36, this in itself is causing me some anxiety, and DH is 37. We have two girls ages 9 & 6. This is going to be like starting all over again. We don't own a lick of anything baby anymore. Once DD2 turned 4 we started giving things away as it just seemed like we were done...but not 100% sure.
The girls have been asking for a little brother like crazy lately. We haven't told them that I'm pregnant yet, but I know when we do they will probably blow up from excitement. I'll also be taking bets on where I go into labor and where I actually deliver. With DD1 my water broke at work. It was quite the fiasco for my coworkers to wheel me down in an office chair. For DD2, she was born at home in our dining room. I slept through most of her labor and by the time I woke up the contractions were less than 4mins apart. She was born less than 30mins after that. Needless to say my births tend to be eventful. lol
I was active on TB for both of my kids. It was nice having a group of women to go through all the ups and downs of pregnancy with.
I’m Kendra, 34 yo. EDD is Aug 20 so I am at about 5 weeks and a few days. We already have have a son, who will be 3 on the 3rd!
My first ultra sound ia scheduled for Jan 8 so as you can all imagine it will be hard to keep this a secret through the holidays with my family and my SOs. 😬
Hi ladies! I come from TTGP and the ladies there have been so great to me for the past 8 months. H and I are both 27 and are expecting our first LO due 8/30/19!
We just told my family last night because we are taking a trip with them after the holidays and knew I couldn’t hide it. We have our first appointment January 17 at 8 weeks and will share the news with H’s family then! So excited to meet you all!
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! I’m a FTM and 38 (yay for being AMA!) DH is 40. We’ve been together for 12 years and married for 7 years.
We’ve been trying for 28 months *Tw* I had an ectopic in Feb ‘17 *end TW* I had an ER in July and a cancelled FET cycle in October. We were thankfully successful on our first FET and EDD is 8/23.

Hi! I’m a 41-year-old FTM. I’ve been married for 13 years — and I am finally pregnant after an unsuccessful IVF attempt in 2014, five more years of nothing, and a frozen embryo transfer a few weeks ago. It doesn’t feel real yet.
I quit my career a few years ago and now I’m a homemaker with one exceedingly adorable kitty. I love reading, music performance, and anything artistic. I also love to travel and recently got back from Antarctica!
Due 8/29 here with kid #4. I have two older daughters 19, and 17 (WTF I KNOW), and my youngest daughter is 2. My husband and I live in NYC and have a husky (he’s my best bud!).
My love titter is still broken. But just wanted to pop in and say congrats to all the TTGP ladies! Wahooo! Make August great again! ❤️ So happy for all of you!
Hi all!! Congrats to everyone!! I just POAS today after a no show from AF, aaaaand it was positive! My EDD is Aug 30th. This is my 4th pregnancy, I have 1 DD who is 15m old.

We have 3 kitties and a doggo, and we are so very excitascared for our little Christmas surprise!
Hi Everyone! I’m 35 and a FTM. I’m excited but constantly terrified of a miscarriage due to being older and this being my first pregnancy. Looking forward to exploring the boards a bit more. I’m currently 5w3d and my EDD is 8/23.

Hi everyone! I'm a FTM due around 8/22. I'm currently 5w6d. I'm 29 and DH is 30. We had difficulty conceiving due to my mild PCOS and have been seeing a specialist but got pregnant almost naturally. So far so good, just really anxious and hopeful!

We have a dog and a cat, but a baby would be the perfect addition to our new family❤️ Definitely loving and looking for some Bump support during the process, really excited to be a part of this!!🥰 So happy and blessed to be expecting, but definitely A LOT of emotions and feelings and things happening especially with this being my first!!
Hi everyone. First time mom here... well to a human. I have 1 dog and 3 cats I am super excited but so nervous and scared. I am also hating all these abbreviations, but I'll get used to it I'm sure. Glad we have this I don't think I have used a chat room since the 90s! Nice to meet everyone!
Goodmorning Ladies! I’m so excited to be here! My name is Jasmine I’m 26 years old, FTM. My EDD: 8/20/2019, currently I’m 6w2d and I have so many questions, feeling so manny different things and I’m glad to have a circle of women to take this journey with!

Hi everyone! Our EDD is 8/30. We're originally from the East Coast but we live in Texas with our 2yr old daughter and two dogs. We're excited to be expecting again
Hello - I'm 36, soon to be 37, DH is 35. We have three dogs and one cat. 5w today, EDD 8/29/19.
*TW loss We are hoping this will be our first take home baby. I've had four first tri mc's since we started trying in March of 2017. We decided to do IVF with PGS testing to reduce risk of loss. end TW*
First time mom, EDD is 8/2. My husband and I are both 34. We live in NYC and I’m a corporate attorney.
**TW I had a MMC in August and was convinced I miscarried again earlier this month. I went to the doctor 10 days later and was shocked to see a heartbeat. Everything looks good for now but I’m not sure the anxiety will ever go away...
Hi all! I am 34 from Oregon, pregnant with #2. DS is 3, and all the fun of a threenager... I had a very smooth pregnancy and delivery first time around and hoping for the same this time. Found the BMC to be helpful the first time around until it started getting super catty when we were all in our 3rd trimester, hope for a fun BMC again!
Hey! I’m Lindsay FTM here! EDD 8-19. Currently 6w5d! Had our first doc apt this past week for all the blood tests and first US scheduled for 1-24! I’m super excited but nervous, it feels so odd not being able to see my lil babes for so long!! I just hope everything is well, I’m trying to stay positive! My hubby and I have been married for 3 years and have 3 Australian Shepherds! This little bundle of joy will be a prefect addition to our family!! Nice to meet you all!!!!
Hello, new here. 40 years old and expecting #3. I have 2 DDs, 7 and 3. EDD 8/25. This baby was a huge surprise and I’m freaking a little. I’ve been separated from my husband since the spring, we both started dating recently. My BF and I used protection. Feeling scared and alone!
You're totally not alone. I'm a recently divorced FTM that is pregnant by someone I was casually dating. Was, as in "I dumped his ass, then found out I was KU". It's super scary to think that you might be totally on your own, but the ladies on this board are awesome and supportive, so at least we have that 😊 I'm excited to get to know you better!
Hello everyone! First time pregnancy here, complete shocker due to my PCOS and me having to induce periods with progesterone several times this year. Seems the metformin I was prescribed worked faster than we thought. I was about to induce it again but took pregnancy test just in case and... SURPRISE!
It is very difficult to calculate how far along I am due to not knowing when I ovulated. But we are guessing about 8w5d, I'm sure that will be adjusted after the first ultrasound. I have an appointment on Jan 4th at the OB office but unsure if I'll get the u/s yet. Any other ladies here with PCOS and/or prediabetes pregnancies? I'm so nervous ><
Hey everyone! Second time pregnant, third time mom (inherited another kid in the marriage 😜) I'm 29, hubby is 30 in January, daughters are 10 (11 in Jan) and 7. MH and I eloped in October.
This is my first time in a pregnancy/Mom group.
I had an US at what was calculated as 6w2d, but I measured 5w0d, which makes much more sense as to when I could have possibly conceived. Levels are rising beautifully, so we're sure it's just late ovulation. Next US is Jan 4th- can't wait!
Hi everyone! We just finished our first IVF cycle since our December 2017 baby and we are due 8/27! The betas were super high, even though we only transferred 1 embryo. We have an ultrasound scheduled for 1/9. It’s nice to see some others from Dec 17 here too! This is our second, our son just turned 1 on 12/21.

I'm so glad to be doing this whole pregnancy thing again with some of the S16 momma's!!
@database6 I also have Factor V and i was induced a week early for my first child. I know that will happen again this time.
The girls have been asking for a little brother like crazy lately. We haven't told them that I'm pregnant yet, but I know when we do they will probably blow up from excitement.
