Didn’t think I’d b back on the Bump so soon. My daughter just turned one last week. I’m not quite sure how far along I am because I haven’t had a period since my daughter was born because I was breast feeding. This pregnancy was unplanned but we already love the little bean. I have a history of ectopic and mmc so I’m cautiously optimistic about things. I’ll feel so much better after I get my second round of betas on Friday to ensure baby is in the uterus! I talk with my other bmb group daily on FB and I have some really close relationships. Looking forward to getting to know all of you.
Hello!! New to this, edd is Jan 18 2020. Will be our first and been married since 08/27/16. had to go through treatments to get here so feeling super nervous but excited! I feel like I ask my drs a million questions about everything already just because we dont want to do anything that could cause complications if we can avoid them lol also still learning all of the lingo! Baby is the size of a apple seed roughly.
Hey all! I'm jess, 34 and my EDD is Jan 10th! This is my first I got my BFP on my birthday, wonderful birthday present! I work too much but I'm attempting to fix that and taking more time for my gardening and cooking. We'll see how my energy holds up!
Hi there. I’m Kristin. I’m an almost 38 (6/13) y/o mom of three, 19,15, and almost 12. My husband and I have been trying for baby #4 for almost 7 years. This will be is his first biological kid, as my first three were from my first marriage. We experienced our first pregnancy and subsequent loss back in December 2017 after 5 years of trying. I was 4w4d when I experienced my last loss. Today I am 4w4d with this new pregnancy and I woke up with no bleeding and immediate puking, so we’re hopeful. According to my lpm I will be due 1/25 which, oddly enough, is actually one day shy of 20 years from the day I was due with my oldest. We’ve only told our kids and his parents so I have no one really to talk to about all this, so that’s why I’m here LOL Hoping to take this one day at a time without going absolutely nuts.
Hello my name is Maegan, but everyone calls me Mae and I’m from the NW Suburbs of Chicago. I’m 41(will be 42 in 12/7) and have 3 biological children Madalyne 17(8/28/01),Ella 13(8/22/05) and Cole 12(10/6/06). My daughters best friend who’s 16 also lives with us. My bf has 3 boys as well. My EDD is 01/15/20 so I’m 6 weeks today. I have mixed emotions about everything since I had. MMC last June. My EED last year was 1/20/19. I actually had a few procedures done a few years ago and was told I could not get pregnant. Well here I am pregnant for a second time. I’m definitely high risk with my age and everything else since I don’t have much of an endometrial lining. I have my first doctor appointment on Tuesday. With the last one I had high hcg levels, but a weak heartbeat and measuring small. They said it seemed more like I would be due in February, but I know my body and am very regular. The baby just wasn’t thriving because of the procedures I had and they told me most likely i would miscarry. A part of me is waiting for it to happen again and I hate that I’m so negative about it. Though I do feel different this time around compared to last year. I now know why I was also “done” in my 20’s. I’m very sore all around and uncomfortable. Very emotional and tired, but can’t sleep. Is anyone else having these issues? Is anyone else as high risk as me? We have two maltipoo’s who are siblings named Hattrick and Stanley. Sorry for all the rambling. 😊
Hello everyone! I have EDD based on LMP of 1/30 and EDD based on ovulation of 1/28. I'll be 33 this summer/when I deliver. I was apart of the March '16 BMB when I was pregnant with DS. I'm still a little surprised that I am actually here. I feel like I am having to relearn a lot of the do's and don'ts of being PG. I like working out, hosting parties, planning trips to Disney, and corgis. I look forward to getting to know all of you!
Hi everyone! I'm Lindsay. I'm 37 and this is my second pregnancy. My husband and I have a 4 year old son who is so excited to become a big brother. We thought our family was complete but, surprise!, here is #2 and we couldn't be more excited. We live in north Florida with our dog Jackson.
Hi! I'm Morgan from Virginia. Just got a very welcomed, but surprised + a week ago. After having to use fertility treatments to conceive our daughter 2.5 years ago, and being told we had less than a 1% chance of conceiving on our own, we're cautiously excited. I'm married and we have the most hilarious toddler, two dogs and a cat. My first OB appointment isn't until June 7, so I'm continuing to POAS each morning to try and ease my anxiety. EDD from online calculators is around January 30, but my DD came 5.5 weeks early, so I'm expecting it'll be more like early January. I remain very close with the moms from my original BMB and am excited to make new friends here.
Me: 31
DH: 32
Married: Sep 2012
TTC #1: Jan 2015 Baby A (via IUI due to MFI): Sep 2016 born at 35+6
Surprise but very welcome + on 5/16/2019, EDD 1/25/2020
Hi! I'm 32 and going to be a first time mom, due January 9. We also have a tuxedo cat that likes lots of attention. Very excited and sort of scared. My friend group is still mostly single, so I don't know much at all about pregnancy! Glad there are online communities.
Hey everyone! I’m Katiani and I’m 26 this is my first pregnancy. Totally unplanned (kind of) but both my boyfriend and I are super excited and nervous!... and kind of freaking out I’ll be honest😅. EDD is January 17 from what I’m guessing off of LMP. My first ultrasound is June 11th so I’m looking forward to seeing a little something! I’ve lived in Arizona the last almost 3 years but we just moved to Alberta, Canada as my bf will be playing football up here. We have a 2 yr old dog named King. I was working a lot before but when I had time I loved to hand around friends, go to the pool, gym, hiking, dog park. Fatigue has been crazy recently so not much going on right now even though I want to explore our new city! Anyway I love that this group and all the other community groups exists. Nice to meet you mommas!
Hello! I’m 36 years old, almost 37. Mom of two boys (5 and 3), 2 dogs and 2 cats. I’ve been married 13 years, almost 14. I am an Elementary music teacher and I have 1 week left of school! EDD is January 26. I will schedule my appt once DH and I are both done for the summer (he’s a teacher too!). This is our first unplanned pregnancy, although I wanted a third and he didn’t. Lol.
Hi all, I’m Sarah. I just turned 31 and this will be our first. My husband and I will have been married for seven years this October and our poppyseed is estimated to arrive the end of January. We live in WV in the US. He is a music teacher at two local schools and I have a degree in music ed but am not currently teaching. I am also a RYT 200 and have had a yoga practice for five years and am wondering how it will change- trying to practice letting go and surrendering. My husband and I are both pretty geeky- we love to watch television and films together, read together, and go on adventures together. I’m looking forward to sharing all of our favorite things with our little one when they arrive.
Hi everyone! My name is Greta and I’m 29. I’ll be celebrating 7 years of marriage in June. I’m a SAHM. I have two boys- 5 and 17 months- and a precious angel baby. My EDD is January 12. I enjoy crafting and baking. Can’t wait to get to know you all.
Hey everyone! First time momma here! I’m 25 and babies daddy has 2 of his own already. My EDD is January 23rd ❤️. I’m super nervous about having a miscarriage because I already love the little nugget so much.
My name is Emily (30) and my husband Chris (29) and I are expecting our first child. My due date is 1/20/20, which puts me at almost 6 weeks along. Haven't had much nausea yet *knocks on wood* but I've been sooo fatigued and just feeling kinda blah. Trusting that's how I'm supposed to feel!
The most difficult part of this pregnancy is going to be distance from family. We live in Southern California and our parents live back in Virginia, with 3 of the 4 going through treatment for cancer. We haven't told the parents yet- waiting for our first ultrasound to share the news. Anyone else dealing with distance or sick family members during their pregnancy?
Hi All - first time poster on any community boards! DH (33) and I (35) are expecting our first human (EDD 01/01) after many years of trying.. So thrilled and emotional and excited but still cautious, we just crossed 8 weeks so we finally told our parents and close family. We live in Chicago with our fur baby, 7 y/o boxer mix, who swears she is a lap pup at 93lbs... looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Super late to post but I'm Kate. I'm 27 and this is our first pregnancy! We just got married and are both super excited. EDD is Jan 3/19. My midwife appt is this coming. Tuesday so excited but also nervous!! I'm about 8+1 today if my dates are right (based on O day as I was doing opks). I still feel pretty good.. just tired, on/off sore breasts and nipples and morning nausea but it's just gagging?? So weird !!
I'm 28 and 7 weeks 4 days into my first pregnancy. My husband and I got married in August 2018. We got pregnant basically immediately after deciding to TTC so it took me a minute to get used to the idea but he's over the moon excited. EDD is 1/8 which is fun as my birthday is 1/9. First US is scheduled for 6/4 and we're waiting until Father's day to tell our families, which has been difficult (and making excuses for declining a glass of wine!)
We live in MN with our fur babies: a 9 year old German Shorthaired Pointer and a 13 year old Collie mix.
Hi! My name is Shayla, from Northern NY. I'm a 35 yo mom of two with number 3 EDD January 4th. We weren't even trying and was only able to dtd once in April, but that one time is all it took lol. This was quite the surprise but after taking 4 years to conceive our ds we will happily take this unexpected gift 🙂
February Siggy Challenge- Post pregnancy indulgences
Hi! My name is Cam. I'm 34 and my edd is January 10, which is right around my own birthday ... This is my first pregnancy and very planned and very excited!
Hi!! I’m Ana. I’m 27 and this is my first pregnancy. We just went off BC in April so we were expecting to conceive so soon. 🤣 according to my fdlp I’m about 6 weeks preggo and will be having my first appointment on June 11th. I’m super excited and nervous all at the same time. Also these symptoms are driving me crazy. I feel like the only time I’m not nauseous is like at 3pm in the afternoon. Also the mood swings are rough!! I feel like I have a zillion questions. Even though I haven’t had my first appointment, can I call the nurses line and like bombard them?? Or should I just wait for the first appointment and go crazy 😝
Hi! Mare here! 42 now, will be 43 at birth, SO is 43 now, will be 44. And first time parents! But don't tell our 2 dogs yet! EDD 1/22/20 This is our miracle rainbow baby. TTC 2 yrs, 1 mmc, 1 chemical. Had been with a doctor for unexplained infertility who abruptly stopped practicing leaving us hanging, last visit was in January. Had even done 2 IUI. Not a great experience. We took some time off, and had just started discussing finding a new clinic and discussing our options when BOOM, bfp! SO is more scared than I am, I'm feeling more peaceful about it this time around. Praying for a healthy baby!!!!
I’m Jamie, I’m 36 and pregnant with #4. I’m not sure of my due date but my best estimate is 1/24/2020, so that puts me between 5 and 6 weeks along. My first appointment isn’t until 6/28 so hub and I are waiting until then to share the news. Congrats to all the other expectant mothers on here!
Hello all you lovely people. I’m Amy 40 years young and pregnant with my third. Totally not planned. I have 2 boys, soon to be 21 and 19 1/2 years old. This will be my bf first. My husband had passed away 9 and half years ago. So my bf is the first guy I’ve dated since and it’s only been 5 months lol. Anyways I am really happy to have my boys and my bf was always told he couldn’t have kids. Well we have decided that we are having my best friend and her wife adopted our baby. They are a same sex couple that has been trying for 4 years and they have not been able to conceive. They have joke about him knocking me up lol. I have talked with them about me possible carrying their baby via surrogacy and we’re just about to start the process. When I told my bf he said that there was no choice but to ask them to be the parents. Needless to say they are over the moon. Yes I know this may not be the right decision for everyone but it is the right decision for us. I look forward to chatting with each of you. Cheers
Hi everyone! This is baby #2 for me and my husband. My due date is early Feb but I have a feeling baby's going to be born in January... My first came 2 weeks early and my mom said both me and my brother were two weeks early. So, if patterns persist, then this LO should be a January baby too, lol. My first is 17 months old right now.
TW...
My first was my rainbow baby after two miscarriages. I'm actually shocked right now that I am pregnant because it took us so long the first time. Anyways, I'm trying to think positive thoughts! looking forward to getting to know you all
Hi 👋 ! I’m Suzanne, 42, due January 4th with baby #3, but it’s been over a decade since my last baby! Kids are 13 and 10. SO is Bob, my fiancé, and this is his first. We have a 95lb Rhodesian Ridgeback named Kane. We’re in the US in the DC area.
I had a prior MC on March 1st at 6w, but I’m 8w3d today with my rainbow baby, and so far so good 👍🏻.
Hiii, my name is Tiffany. I am 28 y.o living in south Jersey. Hubby of 2 years just recieved orders for us to move to the bay area, California in about 2 months. This is our first and EDD is Jan,16. I have PCOS so we were about to go under fertility treatment when I found vitex herbals and decided to give it a try, and here we are 6 weeks later!
@alicia__e I'm in Southern Ontario here too! Congrats on your first.
How did your US go? My EDD is January 3, and my US is booked for June 3, feel like I've been waiting a lifetime! Also my first pregnancy...can the first few weeks go any slower?!
Hi everyone! I'm Kate I'm 35 and expecting my second. I don't have an official due date yet, but I'm estimating around January 26th. I live in southeast Louisiana with my husband, three year old daughter, two cats, and a dog.
Hi all! I’m Tristan, 30 years old, married August 2017. Wasn’t expecting to be back here so soon, this wasn’t planned and the timing could be better but we are still so happy to be adding to our family. I was a member of the May 18 BMB, so my DD just turned 1. I have a DSD8 and my DD1, DH is hoping for a boy this time around lol. EDD is January 25, first OBGYN appt is scheduled for 6/17, which seems like forever! Happy and healthy 9 months to all!

OMG I feel the same way. My first appointment is June 12th and it's freaking creeping along!!
Hi everyone! I'm Mary--I'm 31, already mama to 3, 5 DD, 3 DD, and 15 m/o DS. Just found out Saturday that DC #4 is on the way! I'm a SAHM and we have a small little "homestead" with chickens and ducks, a few barn cats and 2 mostly inside dogs. My EDD is 1/29 based on LMP, but all of mine have come late so far, so I'll likely have this LO in February! Glad to "meet" you all!
Hi everyone! I’m Jacqi (31) and I live in Denver with my DH Kirk (34). This is our first, EDD 1/20/20 and we’re nervous but excited! We also just got a goldendoodle pup named Hank right before we found out... after 8 years of it just being the two of us I’m so thrilled to start a little family

Hey y’all, my name is Gina. I will be 29 in July and I’m about 5w6d with baby number two! I currently have a 2.5 year old and I can’t wait for him to take on the role of big brother! With my last pregnancy, I had GD so I’m a bit nervous that it’ll whip right back around for this pregnancy. First appt is on Wednesday so we will see!
By the way, I’m seeing a lot of HP usernames, love love love it ⚡️
Re: Introduce yourself here (:
Congrats @c1kc1kpol1cn1k!!
