Yup. DS is Tommy Pickles! Nothing like living with an escape artist.
Just another cloth diapering, baby wearing mama.

Re: Were you TTC for this pregnancy?

  • STM+NTNP but we had just decided to TTC. The very next day we got our BFP. Talk about timing!

  • I said STM totally surprised, but I'm a third time mom with this one.

    It took a year to get pregnant with DS so we expected it to take as long as it did with him. Well, the first month of kind of trying but no charting or anything, surprise surprise I got my BFP!
    1st BFP- March 2011. Natural MC @ 8 weeks
    2nd BFP- July 2011.  Chemical Pregnancy
    3rd BFP- Sep 2011. My beautiful son was born May 2012.

  • STM here, actively trying since 2010!

    Second time mom actively trying. Seriously though, had the WTF were we thinking day today. I got about 4-6 of these last time I was pregnant. I know we were trying, yes I'm excited, tomorrow will be a better day; but today, today I don't know if I can handle two. And I'd really love to have a drink after bedtime. :(
    I completely understand that one. I totally had a drink the other night, just a glass of wine. :) It was wonderful!

  • STM, NTNP, 1st month off of bc and didn't think it would happen so soon since it took a while with our 1st.

    We're in the same boat, looks like we're the only ones that weren't trying and surprised by our BFP, well out of those that posted at least.

  • Our 3rd pregnancy and I am 4w5d. It was planned and we did the ovulation test and gave it one shot. ;;) we feel so blessed.
  • FTM actively trying. BFP cycle 2 after Nuvaring.
  • FTM, NTNP.  We'd tried off and on over the last couple of years (at varying levels of diligency) but at the time I got KU we weren't actively trying.  I'm sort of glad that it happened that way.
    BFP: 8/26/2014
    EDD: 5/4/2015

  • FTM NTNP. I was trying the PCOS diet to hopefully regulate my cycles. Had one natural cycle in May but morning since. Went to my doctor for Provera and did the routine urine test before they world prescribe it to me. Got the biggest surprise of my life!

    :) hehe congrats mama!!!! here we go three kids ahhh :) excited
  • First time mom! Got DH to agree to a baby in June, tried casually in July, and then got impatient and broke out the ovulation tests in August and viola! 7 weeks!
  • STM started trying in July (got married in April, went off BC end of April) got pregnant in July, had loss beginning of August got pregnant again in August... Doctor called me fertile myrtle lol
  • STM NTNP. We had a suprise pregnancy in April that we lost in May. We had been talking about trying again within the next year. After our loss we decided to go the NTNP route and got lucky right away.

  • I voted STM NTNP, but I'm technically TTM NTNP :)

    BFP #2: 4-20-2012, Natural MC 5-1-2012

    BFP #4: 9-13-2014, MMC discovered 10-27-14 at 10w, d&c on 11-6-14 

  • FTM, tried for 1 week, hit the jackpot. (I'm aware that that totally makes me an asshole.) We were a bit shocked and taken aback to be pregnant QUITE so soon, but obviously delighted too.

  • I put actively trying, but it was more NTNP because we were like if it doesn't happen this time (we only DTD once) we will wait until December and here we are! ETA: this will be my third
    This was us, too, but we were going to wait until November.

  • Actively trying 1 month after our mmc. Was in shock that it happened again so quickly hopefully this one will stay :)
  • We were discussing whether or not to try so basically said we wouldn't actively prevent and 2 months later here we are.

  • STM actively trying, the first time we tried the opk and it worked :) we feel very blessed
  • Decided to TTC in June and read loads of info, planned and overthought it throughout July with no luck. Had a stressful couple of weeks at work and got dates wrong in August (or so I thought) so just wrote it off as a 'practice' month and then got my BFP 2nd September. I don't even know why I tested I was so adamant that it hadn't happened!
  • FTM, got pregnant after 3 months of trying.

    TTC #1: June 2014

  • STM NTNP. We just stopped preventing about 2 weeks ago so this was a bit of a surprise.
  • FTM total surprise. However, despite being in a complete state of shock at first (for me anyways, my fiancé was overjoyed from the start) I am so happy and so excited! We have both always wanted kids, and we had talked about it, we just hadn't exactly planned for a baby just yet but now we definitely are, haha.
