@KDHB13 if you want to use your O date, just tell your OB that your LMP was 14 days before O. They'll adjust during a dating US anyway, but you don't want them thinking you are measuring behind, when really you O'd late!
Congratulations and welcome! Yay TTGP grads!

Thanks! I'm not super concerned. DS was a big boy so I imagine this baby will follow suit and be big/measuring fine even though I ovulated late.
ETA: My OB doesn't do dating ultrasounds either. Just the NT scan and anatomy scan

Hello, everyone, and I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! My husband and I are both 30, and we have a 19-month-old son. Pregnant with #2 - EDD is July 15th. More nervous with this pregnancy than with my son - had a blighted ovum last August, ending in a D&C. We've been trying since then to get pregnant again. I had an early ultrasound last Friday, and got to see my baby and a heartbeat! Taking supplements for naturally low progesterone levels, and enjoying every day I wake up sick to my stomach, thankful I'm still pregnant! Cautiously excited, and glad to meet you all!
Hi Mommas! My name is Lauren and I am 31. DH is also 31. This is my second pregnancy and I am due at the end of July. (Still waiting for official EDD from my doctor). We go through infertility treatment, so I know as soon as possible when I am pregnant. DS is 19 months old and keeps me very busy. We are so excited to see how this pregnancy differs from the first and can't wait for our first look at baby!
Found out a week ago today! So exciting and cannot quite believe that it is real!
We have been trying for two and a half years with and without the help of fertility treatments. Lots of meds and quite a few IUIs. We didn't get pregnant one time during all of that. Then in July we decided to move on to IVF. I had to lose some weight before we qualified for IVF, so we were focusing on healthy eating and keeping active. We got a VERY surprising BFP at the beginning of September which ended in a MMC on 9/10 at 6+5. I had a D&C on 9/17 and returned my focus to healthy living in preparation for IVF. I still hadn't had a period since the D&C and contacted my doctor to prescribe me Provera to jump start my period. They recommended I take a preg test just incase and thank goodness I did! I about fell over when I saw that BFP!!
We were able to get into the doctor right away and found out that we were 7+5 with a very healthy 170bpm heartbeat! Something we never achieved with the last pregnancy. We are over the moon! Fingers crossed we keep progressing!
Me: 31 | DH: 37 Married January 12, 2013 TTC since July 2013 Fertility Treatments January 2014 - June 2015 Took a break to prepare for IVF Surprise BFP - September 2015 - MMC at 6 weeks, 5 days Another surprise BFP - November 2015 - EDD: July 8th!
Hi there! I'm late to the party as well. My name is Ashley, I'm 23 years old and my husband is 24. We live in Columbus, OH. This is our first pregnancy. My husband and I were very fortunate and got pregnant our first try! We got our BFP Oct 26 and due date is estimated July 11. Today I am 7wk4d but I have my first appointment Dec 1 to confirm everything! Super excited to see/hear the baby! Sick as a dog, but I can tell I'm not alone!
Hi there ladies my name is Laura, i just turned 30 and for my birthday I got the best birthday present a girl could ask for. Not sure how this works but here we go. I just found out I am 7 weeks pregnant last week, to my calculation im 6weeks today. Been with my husband for 13 years, married for the last 6yrs. Our anniversary is September 9th right before our anniversary this year he broke some news to me. Told me he wanted a divorce . We have been trying for a baby for over two years, at this point it was 6 more months of trying before my doctor would do any tests or even start us on Clomid. So within two weeks of finding out that he didn't want me anymore I lost 20 pounds. For some people that might seem like a great thing but when you are only 114 lbs and go to 95 its not a good thing. I moved out within 2wks but about a month later, middle of October we had already been talking a lil. We went out to dinner one night, had a few drinks, started talking and one thing led to the next. And wouldn't you know it we conceived the child we been trying for. God does work in mysterious ways I fully believe that. Don't know what this means for us or anything,but going to take it one day at a time. I really hope that this group can help me better understand what my body is going through, the emotional roller coaster that I'm going to find myself on. I don't know anyone that has ever been in the situation I am actually in so just looking for a few encouraging words. Sorry for such a long introduction. Edd is 7/7/16!!
Hi ladies, my names Adriana, I have been trying to conceive for just under 3 years (never been pregnant before). After 2 unsuccessful IVF cycles, we decided to try one last time and we finally got our BFP! Due date is July 17!
Hi ladies! My name is Hailey and I am 25 years old. My fiance and I are so excited that we are expecting! I have a five year old named Levi and am now 5 wks 5 days. I lost a baby girl I'm 2012 due to cord strangulation at 37 weeks so this pregnancy is a little nerve wrecking so far and will probably continue to be. Anyways, I hope all of you are feeling okay!
Hello I am a 28 year old mother of a super hyper 4 year old boy. We have been trying since January to conceive and it finally happened. We found out November 4 in a walmart bathroom lol. Our baby is due July 15. A little nervous cause my ob just informed me that starting at 18 weeks I'll be going to a high risk doctor due to complications during my first pregnancy. But all in all we are excited. Looking forward to reading everyone's experiences. Good luck ladies.
Hello everyone! I am Ty & I am 23. This will be my second child but my first child with my boyfriend. My first child is from a previous relationship & she was born in 2013. My boyfriend has accepted my daughter as his own so it makes me happy that we are all family. My boyfriend is beyond excited for our little peanut. He has always wanted children but only wanted to have a child with the right woman he sees a future with and I am that lucky woman. We did have a previous pregnancy but that resulted into a chemical pregnancy which truly broke his heart because he turned into daddy mode quicker than ever. I told him that God will bless us again we just have to be patient & BOOM here is our surprise baby because we actually were not even trying this time. Our baby will be born a month (July 14,2016) after our 1 year anniversary (June 6, 2016) of being together so that really makes everything so real. I am excited to be apart of this group and hoping to get know you ladies a little bit more. At first I worried a lot when I got my first positive HPT but I left in God's hands to bless us throughout this 9 month journey.
Hello all! I'm 25 and expexting my 2nd. Married and I have 16-month old daughter.
I am about 7 weeks now but it has definitely been a rollercoaster ride since i found out about 2 weeks ago. Short version: 3 days after finding out we are expecting i started bleeding bright red blood (no cramping) and freaked out and for sure thought I was miscarrying and was completely devestated. Saw mid wife who couldn't see anything on ultrasound and said it might be blighted ovum. Saw an OB/GYN 4 days later and there was a heartbeat! Said i measured at 6w2d. Continued bleeding for about a week (light, brown spotting) but no cramping and have my next appointment Dec 4. Super nervous but praying baby's heartbeat is beating stronger than ever!
Hi my name is Ashley and this is my second pregnancy according to my LMP im due july 25 2016. I have my first ultra sound and heart beat check this friday dec 4 and my first prenatal dec 16. So excited and hope this pregnancy is similar to my first which was in my opinion The perfect pregnancy lol
Hi there! My name is Lis, I am 29. First time mom here. I am right on the cusp of June/July birth, as my lmp says June 30, but baby is measuring 2-3 days behind. A fourth of July baby sounds kind of fun!
Hello, I'm Kristen, and due with #2 July 12. Have a 9yo girl who is excited to finally be a big sister. We did IVF, and transferred 2 5d blasts. Last u/s showed one sac and one strong heartbeat, and we are ecstatic. I had a rough time with my first and delivered 10 weeks early. Trying to stay cautiously optimistic things will be better this time. So far the N/V is what is getting to me. It's really an all day thing. I'm a nurse and have to deal with different sights and smells, so I'm ready for that part to be over!
Hi! My name is Kate, I am a mom of two boys, pregnant with a surprise 3rd. I am technically due 8/4 based on what I *remember* my period to be, but have always delivered early, so I will be bouncing boards until I get a better due date prediction (aka an ultrasound.) I am still in quite a bit of shock as we were not trying to get pregnant. But baby will be welcome with open arms, for sure!
I'm Mer. I am 30 (just turned) and my husband is 31. We have been together for 6 1/2 years and married for 1.5 yrs. This is baby number one for both of us. I never was one of those people we knew i wanted kids, but it's funny how things change when you meet the perfect man for you! We had a chemical pregnancy in September, so we are not telling anyone until out first US! After Dec 11!! So excited. We are making it a Christmas suprise! I hope I can keep quite that long.
Forgive my lurk, I've been floating around reading the board for just under a month. Husband and I are both 28, married just under 5 years, first pregnancy/child for both of us. Tested positive 28th of October after 4 days of complete denial. Ultrasound confirmed Nov 17th, due July 7th.
Hello, I'm 31 and DH is 34. We have been married for 5 years and have two sons, our oldest will be 4 in February and our youngest will be 19 months on Tuesday. We brought home a surprising souvenir from our anniversary trip to Gatlinburg, TN. Now that we are over the disbelief we are very excited to welcome our third little one in July. BFP was on Friday and based on my last MP I am due July 25th. I am not scheduled to see my OB until 12/15. Hoping for a healthy pregnancy for all. Nice meeting you!
Hi, everyone! I'm a late addition to July. I just got a shocking bfp on Tuesday and I think I'm due July 25-31.
I'm 34 and DH is 35. We have a 3 year-old daughter and live in a Chicago suburb. DD took 19 months and a miscarriage to conceive. So imagine my shock when this pregnancy was one oops on CD 7!
I'm still absorbing the surprise of it all. I forgot to call the OB and tried Wednesday to learn the office is closed until Monday.
Anyway, I'm a mostly SAHM. I'm a fairly crunchy, AP parent to DD but I also feel like a complete beginner. I forgot everything! I'm cautiously optimistic, having had a loss already but I'm so excited too. I have to let it out somewhere, so here seems like the place.
