Re: Introductions
Due date: 2/3/2025 according to app. May change after first US.
How you found out: We had been trying so on Memorial Day I decided to take a test. I wasn’t quite late yet but was happy to see a positive result! I brought my daughter to bed with us in the morning and said, “Dada, she’s gonna be a big sister!”
Tell us about yourself: My husband and I have been married 4 years. We also have a furry daughter who’s 10 years old. I work in mental health care. I love camping (we just got a pop-up trailer this year) and taking my daughter on adventures.
How are you feeling: So far so good! No symptoms quite yet. Grateful for that because I’m so preoccupied chasing after a toddler!
Due date: February 8
How you found out: took a test a few days before my expected period, even though I said I wouldn't. I was in shock to see 2 lines so quickly!
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?) DD1 is 7 and very active! DH and I have been married for almost 9 years, and got married on the 5 year anniversary of our first date! I like to canoe and kayak. DH and I are both teachers, so looking forward to summer!
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? Symptoms are mild so far, but usually kick in around 6 weeks.
Due date: 2/3/2025 according to app.
How you found out: lab test. We have been trying through IUI and apparently the third time is the charm!
Tell us about yourself: my husband I will have been married for 5 years in September. We have 3 cats (woo! No litter boxes for me!). I am a case manager as my necessary job but an artist/sewist as my preferred job. 😄 I also love gardening.
How are you feeling: tired!! I have a sleep disorder and had to go off my meds with the positive test. Fortunately I’m used to being tired and it hasn’t been as bad as I’ve been fearing. My breasts are already a bit bigger and pretty sore. I’m already having to cut back on the spicy foods I so desperately love but I’m working on finding a happy balance.
Due Date: February 8, according to the app
How you found out: My husband and I had been actively trying for five months. This month, I didn’t get my usual premenstrual spotting, which made me wonder…. I began feeling tired, with very tender breasts, so after the day of my missed period, I took two home pregnancy tests 😊
Tell us about yourself: I am 34, and my husband is 41. We got married December 2022, and we will be first-time parents!
I am a speech-language pathologist at an elementary school, and I adore working with children (literally every teacher who has sat in my chair the past few years has gotten pregnant!)
My husband and I are HUGE foodies and love to try new restaurants. I also love to read, write, dance, work out, and hike.
How are you feeling? I’m definitely experiencing fatigue, and I have been going to bed super early. Also experiencing bloating (anyone else?) and sore breasts. No real nausea yet.
Wishing everyone a safe, healthy pregnancy! I look forward to getting to know all of you 💖💖
Due date: Feb 10th/11th according to different apps and calculators. Currently 4W+3D. Will have first ultrasound July 1st at almost 8W.
How you found out: Had my non hormonal IUD removed early April. Started trying in May. Tested positive at 10 DPO.
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?) My first born will be 10 years old in October, so it’s been a while since I was pregnant last. My partner and I have been together for over 5 years and we got engaged in January. We are waiting a few more years to get married due to the benefits of being unwed right now 😅 I live in and work for the state of California. I like to roller skate (on pause now), garden, and exercise.
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? So far my biggest symptoms have been total exhaustion, tender nips, bloating, and frequent urination. Hoping to stave off the morning sickness, I so clearly remember having with my first from 6-16 weeks, for as long as possible.
Due date: February 11th
How you found out: I flew out to OH last week to support my sister the day she had her 1st baby. I was due for my period while I was there and had some cramping. When I cramp that means the flow will start in a couple hours. It didn’t. My period is super regular. I was still a day early but decided to test. I had some kind of feeling. I had also been peeing a lot which I thought may have been nerves and excitement about being there because I wasn’t hydrating more than usual. So the test was positive and it was magical learning that with my sister.

I have two dogs- a belgian malinois and a terrier mix. My husband and I have two boys 9yo and 1yo. Although this is my 5th pregnancy, had a miscarriage and an ectopic pregnancy both before our 2nd son was born. #3 came sooner than planned but we are so excited. I’m just a but nervous having two littles at the same time. We like to travel and camp and cook 😊
I feel like I can’t think about anything else 😂😅 I’ve been so into birth since the first, I can’t get enough reading and learning. Bittersweet though because we said we only wanted 3 kids. I wasn’t ready so soon to have the last. I don’t think I will ever feel “done”. Physical symptoms are peeing often, bloating, some fatigue, cramping (which makes me so nervous) and maybe a smudge of morning sickness.
How you found out: I didn’t expect to get pregnant this cycle but have been tracking and testing carefully due to meds I’m on. Negative at 9 dpo, a squinter at 10, easier to see day 11, today is 12 and Wondfos are still faint, but I also got a digital so I told my husband today.
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?) We have a 7 year old daughter. I’m a nurse, spouse is a teacher and our 10 year anniversary is this month. We have 4 dogs that I like to compete in various sports with, right now mainly nosework but have also done conformation, herding, obedience, rally, barn hunt and agility. I am a hobby collector and more recently have been gardening and doing embroidery.
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? Bloated. Very tired, though I’m not sure how much of that is pregnancy vs shock of being pregnant. I’m nervous as I’ve miscarried before.

@santoskassy21 due date twin! Age twin! And almost location twin, NorCal here! My oldest daughter is also 9 and is the last time I was pregnant 😅 trying to remember all the fun pregnancy stuff I get to look forward to. Best of luck with your pregnancy ✨
Due date: 2.12
How you found out: poas to see if I needed to pack tampons for this beach vaca we're on this week.
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?) This is baby #5, and the last one(s?). The other 4 will be 7.5+, almost 6, 4+, and 2+ in Feb when I deliver - likely rcs on 2.5. Full time sahm, oldest and youngest are girls, middle 2 are boys. Just celebrated my first year of sobriety. Love to play boardgames, though not kid games, so I'm excited for when they get older and can handle more strategy stuff. I'll be 42 in Aug, hubs will be 50(!) the week after.
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? Minimal physical symptoms, but it's early yet. Emotionally: I was psyched to do a fun surprise announcement this week here on the beach even though it's super early, but then we had some behavior issues with my wild 3rd child, currently 3.5, totally developmentally appropriate, but now I don't want to tell anyone because I'm worried they'll judge that I can't even keep the 4 I have under control. Also, travel has put a damper on hubs and I's intimacy time, and I'm grumpy about that.

How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? Feeling cautiously optimistic, bloated and experiencing brief mild waves of nausea. My in laws are staying with us for the next few days and I'd prefer to wait until we are further along to share but hubs would love to tell them sooner so they can join in on the fun.

Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?)
Plus one to the age gap crew! 😊 I have 9 year old twin girls. Currently multitasking with cooking dinner, I’ll post more in a bit!
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? I’m still on IVF meds, so it’s hard to know what’s med side effects vs. symptoms. Definitely tired, nauseous, and having food aversions. Only wanting carbs & salty stuff!
Due date: 2/14/25
How you found out: I was three days late getting my period and took a test. And then seven more before i really believed it!
Tell us about yourself: I’m 38 and this is my first. I was so worried that this was never going to happen for me. But it’s happening! My husband, Humberto, is over the moon excited, but still can’t quite believe it either. He had testicular cancer in his 20s and really didn’t think this was a possibility. We’re feeling so blessed by our little miracle baby! (Oh and i live in San Francisco! Excited to see others in the area). :)
How are you feeling: I don’t know how I’m going to get any work done today. Or for the next nine months. All i can think about is baby!
Due date: 2/6/25 according to the app (and 2 days before my 40th birthday)

Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?). I live in Southern Minnesota. I got married last September and as soon as we came back from our honeymoon this spring we started trying. We also are in the process of Buying a home that needs a lot of renovation….I have been focusing on my breathing to keep stress down!
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? I am only four weeks along and no major symptoms but experiencing mild discomfort in abdomen and some cramping. I read that this is normal but still so worried about it because it has happened for multiple days. I also may be overthinking every little thing. I am very worried to cycle (on stationary bike and my normal exercise) and haven’t done so after finding out. I hope I feel more comfortable as time passes 😬

Due date: 2/7 per the app, I go for my first ultrasound on 6/24 so we will get confirmation then.
How you found out: we have been not trying but trying since our son turned one. I took a test the day I missed my period and then a few more since then. Beyond excited but trying to not be until we see the first ultrasound.

Due date: Feb 9,2025. We have our dating and viability ultrasound at the end of June, so may get an updated due date then.
How you found out: we’ve been trying for a few months. I took a pregnancy test as early as possible (5 days before my period was due) and it was negative, so I was really disappointed. I then missed my period and tried again … super faint second line !!! I told my husband that morning but we didn’t want to get our hopes up too much so we kept things chill. I then tested every day that first week of June (yes, I’m type A lol) and the line got stronger and stronger !!!!
Tell us about yourself: First EVER pregnancy so I really don’t know what to expect ! I’m also the first of any of my friends to be pregnant. I got married at 27 and the rest of my friends are only really starting to settle down now, so I’ve been leading the pack for a while on that front! My husband has a 2 year old niece down in Texas and we’re very close with her parents, so they’re going to be my main guiding point ! I’m a mental health counselor based in a Special Ed school, so I’m currently on summer vacation (thank goodness!!!). Myself and my husband are together 7 years and married for 4. We love to travel (we actually met in Nicaragua!) and have trips to Texas, Austria, Hungary and Ireland planned this summer. Hoping first trimester symptoms don’t impact that TOO much ! We’ve just moved to a bigger apartment also, so there’s lots of change happening right now. I like to relax by reading and cooking, but right now I’m focused on unpacking the million (or so it seems!) boxes we’re living amongst!!!
How are you feeling: the main symptom for me is breast pain. I’m a 32 DD anyway, so have always needed support, but now I find I’m sleeping with a bra on to cope with the pain !!! Thankfully no morning sickness… yet! I find I’m very thirsty and of course, going to the bathroom a LOT. Emotionally I’m in a good place. Definitely a little more sensitive (I got weepy while watching a tv show that featured a father-daughter reunion today!), but I’m surprised at how calm and grounded I feel! I think overall it’s still a bit surreal and I’m counting down the days until our first in person appointment and ultrasound !!! I feel hearing the heartbeat is going to have me in floods of tears. I’ve had a virtual intake with Oula (the midwife focused practice connected to Mount Sinai in New York), but looking forward to the first in person office visit !
Due date: 2/21 per app- I know for a fact when we conceived haha
How you found out: I took an early test before an X-ray and it was negative. Then I took another one when my period was 2 days late- and BAM POSITIVE! I fell to the ground (bc I'm dramatic). Amazing how life changes in a second!
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?)
I have two dogs and a husband (been together 7 years, married 2). I'm a very hands on Aunt, I enjoy cooking, mah Jong (I sound 90), and just spending time with family and friends. My bday is Saturday (what a gift this is) and Im nervous about shirking the why aren't you drinking question- send ideas please! I got laid off in December (it's been a YEAR alreasy including ACL surgery and the death of my estranged dad), and the job market is horrible, but I have faith something will come along. My brother and his husband welcomed a beautiful baby girl in May, and my life seems to be getting better everyday.
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? Emotionally I'm so excited I can't sleep! And I want to tell EVERYONE! Physically- slight naseau in the evenings. I'm so early (4 weeks)- tbd. Just praying it sticks- never been so excited to vomit in my LIFE!
Due date: according to the Bump, 2/27/25 :)
How you found out: I was trying to get pregnant so I was totally symptom spotting, but I made coffee at work and started to feel nauseated. I got home and took a test at 9DPO and it was positive!
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?) no other children, this is my first! I work as an Administrative Assistant and have three cats and a dog, all of whom we got by accident lol I am having this baby with my husband naturally after not making it past a couple baseline ultrasounds for IUi. We've been together since 2014, married since 2020. I'm also an artist and generally like to make things (right now, I'm a member of a pottery studio).
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)? I am feeling a smidge nauseated, nothing bad yet (fingers crossed). I'm feeling constantly thirsty and like I'm on the verge of tears always lol also having some weird insomnia but also always tired? Anyone else? Lol
How you found out:
I have tracked my cycle for years after getting off hormonal birth control. My period didn't come...I waited a good week, but when my boobs felt sore, I just knew. Test was positive.
Tell us about yourself: (Other children/pets? Job? Things you like to do? Spouse/partner?)
Have been married almost 15 years and have 2 kids (11 & 9) who I homeschool. Add me to the big age gap group.
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)?
Feeling anxious- this was the shock of a lifetime. Plus anxiety is definitely how my body reacts to changes in hormones, unfortunately. Am currently nauseous 24/7 and praying it subsides soon. Still trying to come to grips with the fact that we are having another baby. We have been out of that stage for so long and didn't keep even 1 baby item🤪
Due date: 2/5, but at my US Friday they estimated 2/2
How you found out: I waited until my period was 2 days late
Tell us about yourself: I live with my husband, our daughter (she'll be 3 in July), and 2 cats in AZ. I'm an IT analyst and work from home (thankfully!). I love to hike, but since I live in AZ, my main past time is currently bobbing in the pool. I also read a lot and am learning to crochet.
How are you feeling: (Physical symptoms, emotionally)?: Emotionally, excited! Physically, not great. The nausea and food aversions are so much worse this go round and I'm always tired
Due date: February 2
How you found out: Tested positive at 3w4d. Not a huge surprise since I’ve seen sooooo many positive pregnancy tests in my attempts
Tell us about yourself: I’m an artist, foodie, nature lover (although a real homebody lately), and mama to a spirited 2 year old son. Husband works as a programmer for a gaming company. We enjoy going out on weekends, especially to the zoo with our toddler. In the evening we typically find ourselves in front of the tv, too exhausted for much else.
How are you feeling: I’ve been nauseous since week 6, very tired, and sore boobs. I haven’t gained much weight (only 2 pounds but it’s within my typical fluctuation), but my clothes are already feeling snug, so I’m definitely bloated. Despite the nausea, I can’t seem to stop myself from snacking, it’s like I have a bottomless appetite! My energy seems to be coming back though so I’m hoping to get more exercise in soon.
Due date: 2/23/25
How you found out: I test monthly and was SURPRISED to see two lines hahah.
Tell us about yourself: I have been married for 7 months and was planning on waiting a little longer before having a kid. However, my husband and I are so excited to be adding to our family. We have two kitties named Peach and Boris and have a corgi named Duke. I used to be a big runner, and was actually about to sign up for a marathon this fall right before finding out I’m expecting!
How are you feeling: I’m feeling irritable the most. Exhausted the rest of the time. I’ve only puked once thank goodness, but nausea and bloating have been intense. Emotionally I’m definitely coming around more. I’m super excited but still very anxious about everything being okay, I think I’ll feel less anxious once I see babe at my ultrasound in two weeks!
