Hello! This is my first time on this forum, and I'm so thankful for it already.
When you got your BFP? December 10, very light. Took four tests over the next five days, and they progressively got darker.
What your EDD is? Um, no idea. My best guess is Aug 15-20. I have a very irregular cycle and don't have an OB appt until January 13th.
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm 28, married 5 years, and our pitbull is our baby. I have a feeling he's in for a surprise once there's a baby in the house! Fun conception stories? I'm fairly sure we conceived on vacation, which was a 2x/day weekend Didn't even know I was ovulating!
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? Was on over a year ago with a pregnancy that miscarried at 14 weeks But, now we're back at it and really praying we get to meet this baby in August!
What your EDD is? 8/8 Had an ultrasound Monday when I thought I was about 8.5 weeks but ultrasound showed I was only measuring about 6 weeks 2 days. I do have long cycles though so I'm hoping I just found out really early.
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I am 25 and my husband is 23. We have been married for 3 and a half years. We have a baby girl in heaven. I was due in June 14 but water broke too early in February. We named her McKenzie. After that I was diagnosed with incompetent cervix and had a transabdominal cerclage put in in May. Hoping this is our rainbow baby.
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I wasn't super active on the June14 birth month but I posted some here and there.

Well as soon as the pee hit the stick that magical second line showed up...DH responded by saying "after this time and shit we've been through youre going to get excited about a dollar store test?

Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? Just joined!!
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories?
I am 32. DH is 31. Have a fur baby, but no other LOs. Suffered a loss at 22 weeks in August, so we are cautiously hopeful. We were lucky and got pregnant after only trying for a month.
Basics: I'm 26 (27 on the 23rd) SO is 29. I have 7 & 8 year old girls. I was feeling sick for a week, smells bothered me, & SO said my boobs were bigger so I took a test and got my BFP. It was a shock because I've been on the pill but there was no question what we were going to do.
I found out at 5 weeks. EDD is August 19. Basics: I'm 20, H (because we don't use the term dear unless we're being sarcastic) is 23. This is our first LO. I'm the first of my friends to get pregnant so I'm hoping to find some support and socialization on here!
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm 30. I have a six year old son. I knew I was pregnant on November 23rd when I puked in the dishwasher, I just needed the test to catch up with me!
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I just joined.
Hi guys, new to this thread and excited to be here! I am 8 weeks along and had my first ultrasound on Wednesday! Baby looks great and 151 beats per minute. I am due on August 1st 2015. I am married and have a 5 year old son with spina bifida. We took broken down folate 5 mg for a year before trying and hope this baby has a healthy spine, although my son is a perfect as any other baby! I am so nauseas and exhausted but I'm just happy to be expecting number 2!
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm 24 and I've been married for six years. We have a 3.5 year old son who is beyond excited to be a big brother.
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I joined when I was pregnant with my first in 2010 and haven't really been on since he was born so I'm getting used to everything again.
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm 28 and have two other kids...one just turned 4 and the other is 2.5 so it's pretty crazy around here! I'm getting a littler nervous about when this third baby comes! We were planning on starting to try this spring but got a little surprise for Christmas instead.
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I joined in 2010 when I was pregnant with my son and was pretty active through that pregnancy and then the pregnancy with my daughter. Then post partum depression hit me HARD and my birth month board moved to FB so I didn't really come on anymore. But I'm excited to come back!

*****************
TTC since 5/2014
Aug 15 January Siggy Challenge: Favorite "mean girl" from tv/movies
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm 33, have a 2 year old DD, and we got a BFP on the first try this time. We both are still a bit shocked, but excited for another baby.
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I joined the bump when I was pregnant with DD, but I lurk more than I post. Love gifs and if time allows will hunt down the perfect one.
When you got your BFP? Wednesday morning. I had an abdominal CT scheduled at 8am and took a test beforehand just to be safe, even though it didn't seem like I ovulated this cycle. Good thing I did! We were actually on a TTC break due to two chemical pregnancies this fall. I was still temping and my chart was all over the place!
What your EDD is? August 16th or 24th depending on whether you use LMP or possible O date. I O'd really crazy early this cycle for a reason I have yet to understand
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm in my late twenties, have two kids, DS (8) and DD (4.) Hubby and I have been married eight years.
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I am fairly new here. I joined for the birth month board of the loss we had in September, but I was barely pregnant a week before I lost it. Had another CP early November. Lurked around TTCAL, posted there a bit too but I don't think I really fit in. I am getting VERY dark BFPs with this one and even though we conceived and lost the last two cycles, I just have a feeling this one is going to stick. It feels different. Hard to describe. I'm really quite amazed we conceived three cycles in a row. I have severe PCOS so the odds of even ovulating three times in four months is amazing. I am really hoping this one sticks.
~ K.
PCOS, EDS III, low progesterone.
Six early losses (5-8 weeks,) 1 twin loss.
Surprise natural BFP 2014-12-17 Ectopic dx and MTX 2015-01-02.
I got my first bfp Tuesday, December 9th. My beta was on Friday, December 12.
My EDD is August 21.
I'm 26. This will be our first child. I've been pregnant twice before, but both ended in CPs. My Beta's were strong this time and I haven't had any spotting (both times before I was spotting even the day I got my positives). My husband and I tried to conceive for 14 months before this pregnancy, and I'm really hopeful that this will be my sticky bean. I have PCOS and we have a mild male fertility factor. We got pregnant our first round of fertility meds, so we're really lucky!
Hi everyone! I'm "Radiantly", a name I chose 5 years ago when I started online dating and met my husband on the first week I dated. I am 37 (as of 9/23) and he is 41. I am a total bumpie as we've been trying since our wedding July 2013. I've been active on TTC>35 and TTTC and have loved those boards. Very supportive and protective women. I've stayed away from the other boards like TTC because there are so many trollers and young anger. I am planning to be active on the Local NY board (I live in Brooklyn), Preg>35, natural birth.
We saw an RE after trying 6 months and my right tube is blocked. Gave it another 6 months and we were literally resigning ourselves to IVF - we even went to the class last week and saw all the needles- and got a BFP on Wednesday!!! My first. 12dpo (that is days post ovulation for newbies). I've been temping for over a year, timing sex and getting disappointments so this is perfect. So happy!!
I am having my beta on Tuesday. Perfect timing for good news before going up to Boston for Xmas. I am Jewish but have a mixed family so we always celebrate Christmas too.
EDD - August 28, 2015
I love to read the Sunday NY times, quilt, watch movies, walk in nature, play with my cats, make scrapbooks photo albums, cook. Looking forward to being parents. We are So Ready. We've been praying!
TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.
Maya Arvigo Abdominal massage (daily self care), plus TTC meditations.
I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.
July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal
DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes. Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube. If that doesn't help then move to IVF.
Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help. Doubts I have endometriosis. My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!)
Got my big fat positive on December 9. 5 days post frozen embryo transfer. 3rd ivf. Used donor eggs this time. I have a 13 year old daughter. Trying for #2 for 10 years!
When you got your BFP? November 30th
What your EDD is? Its been changed to July 30th but if it's okay with you I'll stick around
Basic info like age, if you have any other LOs, fun conceptions stories? I'm 35 and have a 22.5 month old. It was challenging, to say the least, to get him. We were going to go back to the RE (fertility doctor) in January to help with #2 but was pleasantly surprised, not for lack of trying, when we got a BFP!
Did you just join the Bump or are you a gif-pro? I'm not a gif-pro but I've been a member for 5+ years.
*Formerly peainthepod?* TTC since 1/1/2006. All cycles BFN! IUI's & IVF with no luck. Emergency surgery 11/07 due to hemmoraging cyst on left ovary. 3rd HSG showed complete blockage of right tube (the good side), endo/cysts/adhesion removal 11/11. New start for 2012! Surprise BFP 6/17/12, due 2/12/13. It's a boy!!! Baby Boy born on January 26, 2013.
