I've been posting regularly for months, but I was afraid to intro and be an AW. So, thanks OP!

I'm 23 and a FTM. DH is 25 and I like him a lot. We're working on our third year of marriage. I'm a math teacher and I'm bilingual (Spanish). I have a little mixed breed puppy, she's my baby. I'm insanely good at DDR and I love gaming. EDD June 26th.

My first job was as an arcade tech, and we got unlimited tokens during our shift because it was boring as hell and we needed something to do when the games would break and we would fix them, we'd need to test them. So... As largely unsupervised kids in our upper-teens... Of course we got wicked good at DDR. The 13 year old boys were impressed. Mad respect.

rwelzjensen · January 2015

shannonhogan12 · January 2015

Hi, I haven't introduced myself either. I am 28 and this is my dh and my first. We are due on June 27th. I'm just not sure how my incredibly spoiled cat, Gideon, will respond to a new addition. I love reading all the posts, nice to meet everyone.

lovemywildgirls · January 2015

Nice to meet all of you other late intro ladies

I'm a 32 year old SAHM. I have 2 sweet girls that are 5 and 3 years old. MH and I have been married for 5 years and we a 9 year old yellow lab (he'll always be my first baby!) This pregnancy has been a little rougher than my first two but I'm really enjoying being a SAHM. With my girls I was working full time and going to school full time so this is a welcome change of pace

Hmmm, what else ... I LOVE reading and cooking. And we have our a/s one week from today! Yay, so excited to know that baby is healthy and if we are having a boy or third girl! Oh and my EDD is June 18, I'll be 18 weeks tomorrow. I can't believe we nearing the 1/2 way point!!

disney815 · January 2015

Late intro here too, but I've been around and active since October.
I am 29 and DH is 32. We have been married for almost 6 years (January 31) together for 7 after meeting on match.com
I'm a SAHM who started an etsy shop selling breastfeeding covers and scarves after quitting teaching in downtown Phoenix after 6 long years in 5th and 6th grades.
This is my 4th pregnancy, 3rd baby- I have a 5 year old boy, 2 year old girl, and now another boy on the way.
Disneyland is my favorite place in the world, and my husband and family go at least 4 times a year!
Happy to be here and a part of this community!❤️

flbabychin · January 2015

I'm gonna jump on this too! And, it's really nice to get to know everyone better. I never properly introduced myself, and I've been lurking (occasionally posting) since Oct/Nov.

I'm 28 and a FTM. DH and I have been together 5 years and have been married since September 2013. We have a 3-year-old dog and a 9-year-old cat. Our BFP was a huge surprise, especially because we made a cross-country move from Chicago to south Florida at the end of October to open a clinic together, and weren't planning on me being pregnant just yet. However, this has been the most awesome surprise I've gotten! My DD was just changed from June 22nd to June 26th. And, what else? I have my doctorate in clinical psychology and work as a therapist, specializing in eating disorders.

I'm really looking forward to getting to know the J15 ladies better and snarking with y'all more regularly. (Btw, snarking is now a verb)

Mirage86 · January 2015

Better late than never, right? I've posted occasionally but I'm trying to get out of my lurker's shell and participate in the community a little more often.

I am 28, DH is 30. He is amazing and absolutely my best friend. We've been married since 2012 and live in the frozen arctic that is MN. This is our first baby, due 6/4/15, less than 2 weeks before our 3rd anniversary.

Fun fact: Baby is a little stinker and knows exactly when DH tries to feel all the crazy kicks and flops, and will hold perfectly still the moment his hand is on my belly until he gives up.

It's great to meet all of you ladies!

jessila9 · January 2015

I never properly introduced myself either. I'm Jessi, 27 yo music teacher. DH and I are high school sweethearts and have been married 5 years. Our first has an EDD of June 25. We live in Maryland with our English bulldog, Carl.

lmkchannell14 · January 2015

I have never introduced myself either. I have lurked around and posted a few times. I am 26 years old and 3rd time mom. I'm due June 25th and will find out the sex February 3rd. I have two daughters Brealyn 7, and Avery 8 months. Married to my best friend for almost 3 years and live in a small town in Georgia.

tcodoner · January 2015

Hi all! I'll give in and post an intro here. I've been a lurker and sometimes poster since October. My name is Tina, I'm 29, married for almost 4 years and live in Tucson, AZ. This is both hubbs and my first pregnancy. To be honest I'm super blessed, he is totes on board with this pregnancy (he's the one who wanted to start a family) and is over the moon excited; I've finally been getting more comfortable and excited just these past few weeks. Our EDD is June 13 and our A/S is next Friday so I'll def let you all know what our little nugget is (I'm the total opposite of Team Green, I hate surprises lol)! See you all around, I truly hope the snark and sassiness does not stop, that's one of the things I love the most about TB!

cassare · January 2015

I'm 29 and FTM. EDD is June 25th. Currently living in Okinawa, Japan with my husband of 3 years by way of the military. Husband is active duty. I don't post much since we had a few scares in the first trimester. I've had two other pregnancies which did not go past 10 weeks so this pregnancy is both a blessing and scary with all the unknowns. Tackled our first hurdle with a Harmony test that showed we are low risk. Still waiting to see a pediatric cardiologist since ultrasounds have shown markers for heart defects. Reached 17 weeks today so we are anxiously counting the weeks down we can hold our little boy in our arms. I've enjoyed lurking and all the info you guys have lent out. I am strictly on mobile and not sure how to edit my siggy. Sorry not sure how to really do that stuff. Cheers.

That is amazing! I was getting my DDR on at the movie theater and a kid in my class saw me. He was like "Brother, come look, that's MY TEACHER!" Yep, it's me. I had a sassy gay friend in high school that taught me all my moves.

thom8061 · January 2015

I've been lurking since October but never introduced myself because I felt uncomfortable and like I was being an AW. I swear, I'm not a special snowflake though and I love the snark and hope it doesn't change! I decided to intro because with the change on TOU I didn't want it coming back to bite me that I never had done so. Anyways, I'm a STM with a little girl who is a little over a year old. DH and I have been married since May 2012 and we also have a Yorkshire terrier who is our fur baby. Baby 2 is due June 29 and we will be finding out the sex on Feb 5 (if Baby cooperates). Some of my favorite things are Harry Potter, Double Dunker ice cream, Grey's Anatomy, and snowboarding.

LauraLovesJon · January 2015

I've starting lurking over here the last couple of days so I figured I might as well introduce myself. My due date is actually July 1, but I will likely have a RCS before my due date which will make this a June baby. I'm 26, from South Dakota, and I'm a student and WAHM. This is my fifth pregnancy, but my first son passed away after birth due to Trisomy 13, so this will be my fourth living child. I had my NIPT done last month which came back great with low risk results and we are having our second girl!

HoosOnFirst · January 2015

Hey all, I've been on the boards since Oct. Post occasionally, but read daily. Mobile app makes it too tough to post most days!

I'm 32, DH is 34 and we are expecting our first child, a daughter on June 8. We've been together for 11 years, married for 3. Live outside of Boston and I do accounting for a nonprofit organization. We have a rescue kitty who we talk to like he's a human, but we will need to cut down on the swearing once baby arrives!

I came to The Bump when I found folks here to have a lower tolerance for BS than some other boards. I'm hoping it stays "real"!

MrsWiggleWaggle · January 2015

Thanks for starting this post. I've been lurking since October but avoided posting because a.) it seemed like there wasn't much diffence between being a noob and being a "snowflake" as far as a lot of "established" posters were concerned and I didn't want to get flamed b.) for some reason my knot account listed my full name as my forum name so I had to work with TB powers that be to change it.

Anyway ME:
FTM
EDD 6/27
Under 30
Love mr snuffy from Sesame Street and all things absurd
Generally dislike cynicsm and overly cynical ppl. (I used to be one, I was very shortsighted)
Don't know the gender yet!

Glad to see a lot of lurkers come out since the change in TOU! Also hope established posters don't bail, many opinions and insights have been wonderful.

lisaR3680 · January 2015

Good timing starting this post! I was just wondering if I should do an intro. FTM due June 29. Currently living in sunny Southern California with my husband and 2 large fur babies.

I've only been lurking since December. Not too creepy right?

wegrowsheep · January 2015

Ok, I'll play. 29, SAHM to 5.5 yo DD and 3.75 yo DS. Live near Elbe, WA. Have BS in Animal Science, and all the critters to go with it. Married to DH for 7 years!
Mantra is "Do you want sympathy or advice?" Hopefully not sympathy.....

mdogden · January 2015

I also want to thank you for starting this! I recently have turned my knot account into the bump, and didn't know if I wanted (or would be welcomed) in to what seemed like an established group. My husband and I have been married for a couple years, and this is our first! My EDD is June 18th, and we are team green. We are both excited and filled with fear as we start this new season to our life. I look forward to being able to relate other moms, and read about their experiences.

MrsShattles78 · January 2015

I'll admit, I've been lurking for awhile. Love reading all the posts and even getting in some daily laughs!

Im 36, from California, this is baby #4 for me, first for DH. I have 3 older children from a previous marriage, ages 17(DD), 14(DS), and 7(DD). Can't even let DH hear me say my kids, they're our kids lol We're adding another boy EDD 6/16, which will most likely be our last. Been married about 5 1/2 yrs, since 09/2009. DH is in the Navy, I'm a nurse, but recently have been put on bed rest.(oh joy!) We have a dog named Munchie, an old cat named Butters, and a 2yr old cat who I call Luci, short for Lucifer. Her name is really Cleo, but she's evil! I like the company and advice on here:D

Edited to add my EDD and fur faces. Edited again for spelling.....I'm special tonight!

babywazoo · January 2015

Hi!
I just got this app. I'm 29, live in Toronto with my amazing husband. I'm due on June 27th and this is our first baby. I would as a librarian at a University. So far the pregnancy has been depressing and I feel like I'm getting all the bad symptoms and none of the "glow"

mommytobe1695 · January 2015

OK hi! I've posted once before didn't go so well but I'm going to try this a second time

aub060708 · January 2015

Hi all! Jumping on the late intro ban wagon

I've been a member since the early weeks but spent most of my time lurking around. I'm mostly on the mobile version and it takes forever to load.
I'm 24 and been married for just over three years. We struggled with becoming pregnant and along the way learned I have pcos so it's not always been an easy ride! Our blessing clomid baby is expected on June 8th and we are so so excited! Best wishes to everyone :x

lilitaliangirl · January 2015

I've been on the bump for quite some time (starting posting almost 6 years ago, when pregnant with my DS), but never formally introduced myself (at least not with this pregnancy). I'm 34 and DH is 40. We've been together since Sept 2000 and Married since 2008. I'm pregnant with my second DS (due June 4th). I live in the St Louis area. I come from a huge family and thought, at one time, I wanted lots of kids, but pretty sure we will be sticking with just the 2 kiddos

karaelaine1991 · January 2015

I've been here since I got pregnant but I figured I'd reintroduce myself to all of you who might be new or who may not have encountered me before, especially since I'm not 100% sure that I introduced myself in the beginning!

I'm currently living in the Pittsburgh area. My husband and I moved here in June of 2014 (the day after we got married) so I could go to Pitt to get my master's degree and become a children's librarian. We weren't expecting to have a baby within our first year of marriage (EDD is June 2), but we're so excited for our little surprise to get here! We found out last Friday that we're having a baby girl and we're naming her Olivia May. As of right now, we're hoping she'll be the first of many!

FloGirl82 · January 2015

I've also been on here since back in October and even though I've posted here and there, I'll reintroduce myself as well!

I currently live in the Midwest. I'm a FTM and have been married for over three years. We actually found out I was pregnant the night of our three year anniversary! We also found out we're having a girl-and are planning on naming her Charlotte Noelle. We may try for one more-only time will tell.

ElRuby · January 2015

Thanks for starting this post! I have been on the bump for a while but never formally introduced myself! I post some days but not all the time.

I will be having my second child, due in June. I have a wonderful 3 year old son and this baby will be a girl! I also have three pets who I adore and my husband and I have been married since 2009.

ngaines27 · January 2015

Hi! I'm Natalie and I'm new here. I'm pregnant with #3 and my first boy due June 23! We are super excited! Looking forward to getting to know everyone here!

shawnaNichloe · January 2015

Hi I'm Shawna and I'm new here!! My EDD is June 19th and I have been with my SO for a year tomorrow!! I have two other children my DS who will be 5 in May and my DD who just turned 3. My SO has been an AMAZING father figure to my oldest for almost 2 years now (we were friends for a long time before we started dating ) we live in TN and have a goldfish named Tarzan!!

BabyBean54 · January 2015

Hi all! I'm a FTM, 32 years old and due June 21st. Seems like we have a lot of potential summer solstice babies!! We find out what we are having on Wednesday and I just can't wait to know so I can really start my registry and nesting!
I've been lurking for advice but plan to be more active as time passes and the baby continues to grow!

bosleyb · January 2015

I also would like to introduce myself. I am an attorney, with a 5 year old daughter. DH and I tried for a second child desperately to no success. After 3 failed IVF's we gave up and decided to do foster care. We brought home a newborn baby boy out of the hospital and his 17 month old brother. Six weeks later........guess who miraculously gets pregnant! Yup, this girl! So on or around June 21st we will have a newborn, an 11 month old, a two year old, and a five year old! Sounds insane to me! But we will survive ;-)

jesstanner1117 · January 2015

Been on here for a little bit but haven't introduced myself either. I'm a FTM and EDD is June 21. My husband and I were married in August and found out we were pregnant in October. We just moved to southern Cali from North Carolina in July 2014. It's been a crazy year and my pregnancy has been tough- with morning sickness and crazy headaches. Finally found out we are having a boy and we are so excited! My husband and I are 36 years old so we just figured we are making up for lost time. This is not my husbands first child. He has a 12 year old daughter from his first marriage. Finally been feeling good these past two weeks and have been trying to get out there and exercise when I can.

bowloforanges1327 · January 2015

Another late intro. I am 31 pregnant with my 4th child. I have a 4 yr old girl, 2 boys 3 yrs and 18 mths and we are expecting a little girl on June 4. My husband and I have been best friends since we were 12 and married for almost 5 years. I work as a sign language interpreter. I have been a lurking on and off since I was pregnant with my first daughter and have posted occasionally. Nice to meet everyone

lizichica · January 2015

I am new here and not sure how much I will participate, but thought I should at least say 'Hi!' I am 26 and a FTM. DH and I have been married since 2012 but have been together since 2007. My EED is June 24th and we are team green. We have two (cat) fur babies.

snowqueen1208 · January 2015

I just lurk too lol. I'm 28 with my due date June 1st! I have a 5,4,2, and 1 year old at home! I love it. I've been married since 2008 and love life with my kids

I live in utah.

jas9210 · January 2015

Hi I have been on here since pregnant with my son who just turned 3 in December. I mostly just lurk but I have replied to a few posts on here now so I figured I would introduce myself.

Im 23 and DH and I have been married for 4 1/2 years. We have a 3 year old son, a 2 year old daughter and am due with #3 June 20th

MSTews · January 2015

Hi all!! I just downloaded this app, thus a little late

. I am a 31 yr old FTM from Wisconsin, and couldn't be more excited. Baby's EDD is June 12. I've been with my husband for about 9 yrs, married since 2010. (He's going to be an awesome dad). We've wanted a baby for years, but patiently waited until I finished graduate school. Graduated in August, Preggo in September...amazing.

I've had a pretty smooth pregnancy thus far w/ a few minor cholestasis issues. Fortunately, I have excellent and proactive docs. Anyone else managing this?? So excited to learn more from all you mommies!

I remember when Game Stop used to be Electronics Boutique! I also remember my mom calling some 900# for game hints on Zelda for Nintendo! Lol! Way to bring it back

kristinabeans90 · January 2015

Hi, my name is Kristina and I'm 24 years old. My EDD is June 20th. I have a 4 year-old girl and a 6 month boy. I will have a set of Irish Twins. I did not find out about this pregnancy till I was 15 weeks, because I've been breast feeding. I find out sex of baby on Friday and I'm excited.
