2. Where are you from?
3. Is this your first baby? If not, how many do you have? How many children do you want?
4. Tell us something interesting about yourself!

1. I'm 27. My birthday is Sept. 2 and I'm excited to share a birthday month with this baby! DH and I have been married for 5.5 years!
2. I'm from Central Texas!
3. This is my second. I have a DS who is 21 months. This will likely be our last baby!

    1. I am 33 and married for 6 months next week!
    2. I am originally from Florida, but in Northern Virginia now (which means I am COLD)
    3. This is my very first baby.  We're talking about maybe three total.
    4. Just for my BFP this morning!  I always planned to be a SAHM but looks like I'll be a working mom for at least the first two years.  We'll see after that.
    My husband is fully bilingual though I pretty much stop at hola.  He's going to raise our baby bilingual, so I better get a move on with my Rosetta Stone!

  • 1. How old are you? Are you married? If so, for how long? 
    I am 29, married to DH for 3.5 years
    2. Where are you from? 
    I am from Illinois... which is currently the polar vortex, so stinkin' cold!
    3. Is this your first baby? If not, how many do you have? How many children do you want?
    I have an amazing son who is 2.  It took up a year to get pregnant with #2, so who knows if we're up for the again.  In the beginning we had said 3, but we'll see how 2 goes.
    4. Tell us something interesting about yourself!
    Suddenly I feel like the most uninteresting person alive, but I swear to you I'm not. Some of my best friends were made online while I was on TheBump pregnant with my son.

    Lap & hysteroscopy scheduled for 10/31, right tube cleared, no endo found! ...Happy Halloween!
    Cycle 14: Clomid (50)+ IUI = BFP! EDD 9/16/14~ Rowan Elizabeth born sleeping at 17w4d on 4/12/14 due to IC.
    ~There is no foot too small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world~
    New RE June 2014. RPL b/w - negative. SIS looking for uterine/cervical abnormalities & Asherman's 6/10/14 - ALL CLEAR!  
    Cycle 16: Natural IUI = CP, Cycle 17: Femara (2.5) + IUI = BFN, Cycle 18 Femara (5) + IUI = BFFN, Cycle 19: Break
    Cycle 20: Clomid (50)+ IUI = BFP EDD 6/20, transvaginal cerclage 12/19, Carson Quinn born sleeping at 16w3d on 1/6/15 due to IC

    4. Tell us something interesting about yourself! Hmm I've been told this is interesting although not the best memory I have...when my grandma passed away the funeral home didn't do her make up right so I was asked to add my eye liner. Weird situation but it was for my grandma so it was worth it.

    1. I'm 28 (bday in between O and implantation- makes the gender prediction charts tough to use!). Just got married 10/5/13 2. I live in NJ. I grew up in Boston, so my whole family is up there. DH grew up in PA. To be honest I totally hate that our kids will be closer with his parents since they live nearby. I'm selfish but whatever. 3. This is our first!! We want to have 2, but as long as I have one I'll be content ;) 4. I am a nanny. Currently hanging with a 4mo old little girl. I have the infant thing down pat, it's the pregnancy part that is throwing me for a loop already!
