Re: Here we goooooooo! Post your due date and details in here!

  • We had a miscarriage in December and have been trying to get pregnant again since then, so we've been trying for about 8 months this time around. This will be baby #1 for us, we're super excited!  Right when I took the test and it started coming in pink, I couldn't believe it, so I ran over to my husband exclaiming "Does this look PINK to you??" :-O  By my calculations, my estimated due date is May 9th! :D

  • Hi everyone!! Congratulations!!! I am so excited to join this group! I found out that we were pregnant about 15 minutes ago! Haha! I told my hubby as soon as I saw that very faint line!

    My husband and I have been trying for about 6 months. We had a miscarriage at 6 weeks a few months ago, and that was so heartbreaking. I am shocked and overjoyed that we are pregnant again!!

    First time mom and expected due date is May 1st.

    I am so excited for this journey, and so glad to be here with all of you!

  • Hi everyone! Can't believe I'm posting here. DH and I got married in June 2015, and here we are, 77 days later and I got my BFP! This was our second cycle TTC. I am a first-time mom and this is my first pregnancy. My husband has a 4.5 year old daughter from a previous relationship and she's wonderful. As far as how I told my DH, I bought a yellow baby blanket and wrapped it up with my positive test and put it in a gift bag and gave it to him. He loved it :) based on websites, I am due May 3.
  • Hey everyone!

    How long did you try to get KU? This was our 2nd month trying, first month temping

    How did you tell SO? I took the test first thing in the morning, so I woke him up immediately 

    Estimated due date? May 2
  • Hey Ladies!

    How long did you try to get KU? We tried not too actively in Jan and Feb of this year, then bc the rest of the due dates were too near other yearly events, we took a break so we really have only been trying actively for the last 2 cycles.

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? We have a 3.5 year old Son born in Feb 2012.

    How did you tell your SO? He was working out of town at the time so I told him to video me as soon as he could. When he did, our Son and I held up a book called "There's Going to be a Baby." It took him a second and then he was SO surprised!

    What is your estimated due date? May 10

    We are so excited for baby #2!

    Congratulations and welcome to all of you other lovely ladies!

  • How long did you try to get KU? We weren't going to start officially trying until September.  But my doctor recommended I started tracking my O ... so we weren't really trying but not totally preventing.   

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? First time mommy!!! 

    How did you tell your SO? I called him.  I always wanted to tell him a cute way, but I wasn't expecting a BFP only 9dpo.  So I just called him until he picked up and had to tell him over the phone and then text him a picture of the test!

    What is your estimated due date? According to my LMP - 5/1/16.  According to my O date- 5/5/16.   
  • How long did you try to get KU? We've been trying since September last year. Suffered 2 losses. 1 at the beginning of March and 1 mid June.

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? This will be my first but dh has 2 boys.

    How did you tell your SO? Nothing cute. My Dr has been monitoring my hcg levels for the last month(is complicated) so when the Dr called with the most recent results I told dh right away.

    What is your estimated due date? Based on my O date May 2nd.
  • Hi everyone!

    We have been trying 4 months or so , but it was less trying and more not preventing.

    This will be our second. We have a DD who is almost 2 and a half.

    I really didn't do anything special when I told DH. I mentioned that i thought i was pregnant and took a test the next day. He was waiting outside the bathroom.

    My EDD is May 2nd. Not sure if i will even make it to May since DD was almost a week early.

    Looking forward to getting to know you all during our pregnancy! I wish i would have done this during the first go around!


  • This was our first cycle trying and I am a FTM. DH and I have been married a little over two years, waiting to get our ducks pretty well in a row before TTC and I could not be more excited to start this journey! :D I'm currently waiting for DH to wake up so I can show him the test...the anticipation is killing me! According to the online calculators, my EDD is May 13, 2016

    Hey all!

    Just got the BFP and this was our 5th cycle of trying. I had been using OPKs but said screw it this month and voila, here we are.

    I'm a second time mom -- DS is 6 months old. He was our honeymoon surprise :)

    EDD is May 12th but I'll be having an RCS (repeat c-section) and that's typically scheduled a week or two prior to the due date, so this one should be born right around the beginning of May.

    ETA: I didn't do anything special to tell DH. I had waited until he left the house to take the test, then called him and screamed the news. It was awkward and awesome.
  • How long did you try to get KU? 3 months/cycles charting bbt, cm, etc on FF 

    Are you a first time mom? Yes, first time mom

    How did you tell your SO? Nothing exciting...asked him to come look and see if he could see the line. 

    What is your estimated due date? May 9

    Hey all my name is Shannon!

    Had to create a new account because I couldn't access my old one which really bums me out. Oh well. I'm a STM. I have a little boy that will be 2 in September. I was a member of Sept 2013 mamas and we moved over to FB.

    We were trying since March and got pregnant on our 6th cycle!

    I just told SO I got a faint line and he looked at it. Over the next few days the lines got darker and we grew more excited.

    May EDD is May 9th based on O date.
  • Hey @SGPhotography ! I lurked Sept 13, didn't join FB, but my son will be two next month as well! Congrats!

  • Hi new friends! So excited to post here today.

    I'm 11DPO today and took a test on a whim ... BFP! We've been trying for about a year, with one CP in January. I was tracking BBT, CM and OPKs with the Kindara app and no luck. Switched over to Fertility Friend and got KU in two cycles! Kindara was putting my O later than it actually was so we were missing the window every time.

    Not a first time mom; my son will be 5 in October. We didn't have to try for him ... He was just a happy surprise and that made it so much tougher when we WERE trying and not getting anywhere.

    I took the test this morning and the climbed back into bed with DH and told him. Excitement ensued! We're thrilled. My EDD is May 11, 2016.

    Hey Everyone,

    I just got my BFP this morning at 4 weeks 3 days!

    My EDD is May 5th 2016

    We were actually not trying and I am really surprised!

    Congrats everyone :D
  • My due date is supposed to be May 5th- in my fourth week- super early!! Nervous having some cramping and light bleeding- miscarried last February at 11 weeks
  • I should have just made my intro here. I'm sorry. I forgot how clogged up the boards get, especially early on.

    How long did you try to get KU? One month

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have? Yes and no. We never brought our son home from the hospital. Yes, I am a mom but with Baby #2 I am hopefully going to experience "motherhood" for the 1st time. If that makes any sense.

    How did you tell your SO? I didn't. We both watched the test turn this morning. That's what he really wanted to do this time around.

  • Hi everyone!  :)

    How long did you try to get KU?
    I've tried off and on for nine years - with no assistance - had a few very early m/cs, one at six weeks and another at 12 (Turner's).  H and I have been trying for most of the last year and I had just had an initial appointment with my gyn to talk about fertility options, and before I could even make it to my first round of blood tests, bam!  It's crazy.  :)  I think my doctor is the Uterus Whisperer.   This one feels very different so far than any of the others so we're very cautiously excited.  :)

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have?
    This would be our first!

    How did you tell your SO?
    I tested early one morning and just went in and told him.  Nothing extraordinary other than lots of happies  :)

    What is your estimated due date?
    Estimated due date is May 3.

  • How long did you try to get KU?
    We've been trying since May...but were actually taking this month "off" as my husband graduates in May. Yikes! I hope I can still attend!

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have?
    No, we have two girls already...one who will be 4 in December and one who will be 2 next month.

    How did you tell your SO?
    I showed him the positive test! (He knew I had bought them earlier in the day).

    What is your estimated due date?
    May 3....our first daughter was 5 days "late" and our second was 3 days "early." Maybe this one will be right on the due date!

    I'm excited to be here and talk with you ladies!
  • Hi all!

    This is the first real cycle we were trying, which is so baffling because it took us 3 years and fertility treatments for our first.

    Not a FTM, DS is 16 months.

    I had to wait a whole day and a half to tell DH because he was out of town for work. It nearly killed me!! I really wanted to tell him in person. He didn't even know I was testing and when he came home I showed him the test. I did a very shoddy job of filming his reaction because I was so excited and shaking. (even though I had already had a full day to absorb the good news!)

    EDD is May 8 by my calculations. I have a crazy long cycle (53 days), so if you go by LMP EDD is April 12--nearly a whole month of difference. But I know when I ovulated, so I'm hoping doc will take my word for it or at least give me a dating ultrasound. I didn't turn a test positive until last thurs., (11DPO) so that's also a good indication, as I had tested each day prior to that with negatives.

    Still can't believe I'm here!!!!! Cheers!

    We have only been trying the past month. My last period was July 31st then we started trying after that!

    This will be our 2nd child. We have a 13 month old sweet baby girl!

    My husband is working nights out of town now so he was sleeping when I decided to test. He had turned his phone on silent. I had to wait hours before he called me back. But I had sent him a picture of the positive test! We are both thrilled!!!

    My EDD is July 7th, 2016!!!!!

    Congratulations to everyone too! It is such an exciting time! I loved being pregnant the 1st time and I'm hoping I feel the same this time around as well!

  • This baby will be my third! We got pregnant on our second cycle trying. I handed the positive pregnancy test to my husband while my kids (3 and 1) were jumping all over us in the bed ;). I asked him if he could handle one more jumping on him.

  • Hi, everyone!

    We weren't trying to conceive, but we weren't avoiding either.

    This will be our third child - we have a daughter who just turned four, and a daughter who is 17 months.

    I knew I was pregnant right away - before a positive would show on a pregnancy test. I kept getting negatives, but kept telling my husband I knew they were wrong. So I think he was really surprised when I finally gave him the positive test!

    My EDD is May 11.

    Happy and Healthy 9 months to everyone!

  • How long did you try to get KU?
    Well... We had a missed miscarriage at the end of July resulting in a d and c. They warned us that I would be super fertile after the procedure... They weren't joking.

    Are you a first time mom? If not, how many little ones do you have?
    Yup!

    How did you tell your SO?
    Nothing cute.... We've been expecting a BFP because of my symptoms. They started right away.

    What is your estimated due date?
    May 12!
  • @saladflambe so happy to see you here!!

  • How long did you try to get KU?
    We were not trying. It took us 4 years to get pregnant the first time. We had sex once in the past 3 months and it happened!
    Are you a first time mom? We have 20 month old twin boys (hence rarely having sex)!

    How did you tell your SO?
    He keeps putting baby stuff aside to donate and I told him we will need that stuff - he was confused so I showed him the test. We are nervous to bring another baby into the mix. We just had a conversation about the twins being enough and we feel like our family is complete

    What is your estimated due date? May 4th... My birthday!
