Good little intro for all the late arrivals to this month's board...
1) I'm 31, DH turns 36 next month
2) I'm and attorney, he's a producer for ESPN
3) We've bought little things here and there for the past year before we TTC if we went someplace cool, but now that we're actually pregnant, we're waiting until U/S next Monday to start any shopping. Are staying distracted by researching strollers like crazy. Did buy some loose(r) clothes this past week to get me through the bloat stage.
Nice to meet you all!
A/S: 9.26.11 - Team Pink
First Timer! BFP: 6/5/11 EDD: 2/12/12
February Prayer Group - LO's Verse: Psalm 139:13-18
1. How old are you/your DH? I am 27, Justin is 29.2. What do you do for a living? I am a Licensed Masters Level Social Worker in Kansas. I work at a Child Advocacy Center, which is basically a safe place for kids and teenagers to come and talk and get a medical exam after they have been abuse or witnessed a crime. I work with the non offending (non abusive) parent to provide ongoing support, resources, and therapeutic case management. It is a new program at our agency, so I have been able to make it into whatever I want it to be. I love my job!!3. Have you bought anything for baby yet? With our last pregnancy we bought a crib and changing table/dresser the weekend after the BFP. Part of me regrets getting it so soon, but I'm also happy we have such a big purchase already taken care of. We bought it at Nebraska Furniture Mart, and it was when they were having no interest financing for two or three years, so it was a good deal. My SIL also gave us a sleep sheep and a changing pad/diaper holder to keep in the diaper bag right after we told her about our first BFP. Sooo, I guess long story short is we have stuff but it was bought before this BFP.

1. I am 36. Fiance took off after miscarriage in the fall. I was determined to have a baby - so did artificial insemination/IUI.
2. I am a pediatric ER physician. I too love my job most days. Nervous about how tough all of my night shifts will be while pregnant (and with a newborn!).
3. Haven't bought anything. Super nervous after miscarriage. Not sure when I will feel "safe" to buy things! Told my sister last night, and instructed her to be "cautiously optimisitic" - I would bet she is out shopping right now!! ha ha!
TTC since 3/2010
BFP #1 7/16/10. Missed miscarriage on 8/13/10. D&C 8/21/2010.

U/S on 7/1 - fetal/yolk sac...but wait - there are two! Almost fell off of the table!!!
Now have seen the BABIES and their strong heartbeats twice - starting to sink in this is for real!!!
Still anxiously hoping/praying/wishing for a sticky baby!!!
