Hi! My name is Stacey and I am 40 years old and I have a 3 year old daughter. I have been with my fiance for 9 years. I developed hellp syndrome with my daughter and had to deliver her at 33 weeks. Luckily she was a big baby and was already 5.5 pounds. She spent 21 days in the nicu. I am praying everyday that I don't go through any of that again. It's nice to be here, surprised to be back here but nice
Hi everyone! Excited to join the group. I'm 36 (yikes! One of the oldest here!) I'm a physical therapist. DH and I have been married for 5 years and have a 3 yo son.

My hubby and I have been together for 10 yrs and married for 3 of them. We have a 9 yr boy, 5 yr girl, 2 yr boy; 2 dogs and 1 cat.
I'm currently due Feb 2 but we'll see if this changes at all next week at my first appt. Feeling mostly like crap all the time and was quite freaked out at first. We thought we were done and had gotten rid of all our equipment and lots of clothing;)
I'm an LPN, only been with this company since sept. he drives truck for a local company which is nice so he's home more than ever before. He trained and showed horses for quite a few years before giving it up and just riding as a hobby instead. Got tired of people not paying their bills. We all enjoy riding horses, swimming, sports, hunting and fishing...
Hoping to be able to stick around lurk some more;) thanks!
Hi Mamas-to-be! My name is Lori. I'm 35 and live in Colorado. This will be my 2nd LO - I have a wonderful 18 mo old girl. My husband and I will be married 5 years in Aug.
I work as an estimator for a commercial construction company and he is an attorney. We just had to put our 19 yr old kitty down last week, so we have no pets at the moment :-( (It's a little too soon yet but I'm sure we will be adding another kitty to the family at some point).
I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you better on our journey to Baby!
Hi. My name is Micheala. I'm 17 , 18 in Jan. And 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I've not really planned to fall pregnant. Nor sleep with who was just a friend at the time but now is my fiance (JP) who is 19, turning 20 next month.
We started getting into a relationship the 5th of May. And shorty after we found out that I'm pregnant. The joy on his face then he woke up and saw the test was the most amazing thing ever. His mom is so excited. I'm hardly showing anything but she's already wants start planning for a baby shower. It's so sweet of her. I love her to bits.
As for my parents well. They don't quite know yet. Since they will keep JP and me apart. My mom will accept it. But not my step dad.
I've been out of school for a few years now. And I've got a construction company that I manage.. JP is a well pretty much everything at a place called Chem - ex.
I will be able to take care of my baby. I have the money and support for JP. I'll do what every it takes to make him/her happy.
Well I'm a 1st time mom. And a teen mom. So if anyone has any advice please. It will help me alot! I want to take the best care of the baby as i can
What to do and what not while I'm pregnant?
Why baby milk is the best to use? and what baby milk to stay away from?
Woah, lots of people! I don't know many other Moms with young kids, and one of my friends told me her bump month club was an amazing sounding board to help her deal with stresses no one else understood. I figured I'd give it a shot!
Hi all. I'm 32, and will be a STM. I have a girl who will be two just before this LO is here. I live in Portland with my husband, our DD, a large lab/dane, and cat. I'm originally from Kansas City, but have lived in the PNW for 12yrs.
I was in the process of going back to college when we realized this one stuck (Yay and s@$t!), so I'll be changing things up with my school load. (Maybe online classes for spring semester?)
I had a whirlwind (slightly horrid, but not as bad as some) pregnancy and recovery. Not sure if the introduction is the best place to go into too much into detail. But, I'm told every pregnancy is different, and even if it's the same I'm excited to do it again. The little one part, not the horrid part.
I work three long days a week, and spend the rest of my time trying to catch up with life. That's probably why I'm rambling.
I'm not sure if anyone is going to scroll down 13 pages, but after lurking for the mandatory 72 hours, I figured I'd at least say hi.
Someday I'm going to read every one of these intros! My name is Katie. I'm 26. MH & I have been together 8 years and have a 5 YO DS. We've been TFAS since December '13 with infertility treatments due to anovulatory cycles with PCOS. Still working through a loss in April of this year. MMC and D&C. Just found out we're pregnant with our rainbow baby, and so excited. Can't wait to get to know you ladies

We have one fur baby, the cutest maltese you ever did see, Loki. We are comic book nerds and I am a Disney nerd too. I was just promoted to Head Teller at the credit union I work for so that is going to be a not so fun conversation with them. I love my job, but I'm thinking about being a SAHM when baby comes. DH is a rocket scientist, really a mechanical engineer that contracts for NASA (I am a little proud of him). We are soulmates, not perfect, but perfect for each other. I look forward to getting to know you all and being on this jouney together!!

Hello! I'm currently living in the great state of tx but am originally from just outside of Chicago and am 25 years old. DH and I have been together for almost 6 years but we just got married September of last year! We're expecting our first on 2/12/16 and are surprised and excited! I'm hypothyroid and have always had super irregular cycles so we thought it would take a while to get pregnant (if it ever happened)! Apparently being on BC for over 5 years helped get my cycle under control because I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow! We'll be adding to our mix of furry children: a dog, cat, and hedgehog
I am from Toronto, Canada. I am due at the end of January with my second. My son will turn two in August. I am a teacher and am counting down the days until summer holidays.
