Hey! I've been lurking around this week since I had to create a new account and was unable to post! So here's my intro finally. ..
I've been on the bump through my past pregnancies, I couldn't remember my account info so here I am as a newb:) I have a 3 year old DD and 15 month old DD and between my girls I lost my son at 19 weeks due to a placenta abruption. It was a devastating loss but I feel extremely blessed to have gone on and had a healthy baby girl and to now be pregnant again. I was high risk after my loss and had complications beginning 18 weeks so I'm praying for a low risk, healthy, active pregnancy this time!
I got a positive last Tuesday the 22nd and my due date based on lmp is august 31. But I'm going to hang here! Tomorrow I go in for pregnancy confirmation blood draw and progesterone level check.
I have a love for fitness so i would be happy to help with or post for fitness thread! I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Hi Everyone! Nice to "meet" all of you so far and read your stories.
I found out a week ago, after testing on a whim over my lunch break, that my husband and I are expecting our first child, EDD 9/1/16 based on LMP. We've been trying since April 2015, though we did take a break over October and November as we were in the process of buying a house. This month we thought "what the hey--we're closing on the house soon, let's resume" but I didn't really stress about timing or temping. So this was a little unexpected this month (but very welcome!!)
My husband and I have been married 8 years, together for 12. We're very excited for this next part of our journey and are putting all our hopes and prayers into a happy and healthy pregnancy and baby. I hope the same for all of you as well.
I got my BFP on Decemeber 18th, but waited until now to jump in and join the BMB because of the holidays and a hospital visit. (Long story...short version: everything's fine now!). According to Fertility Friend, I'm now 4w4d (based on O date) with an EDD of 9/1/16. This will be our first child and we couldn't be more excited.
DH is 29, almost 30, I'm 28. We've been TTC since May of this year, started temping and charting in June when I found TTGP. I was pretty active on there until about November, when I took a bit of break. I'm really active on other boards though.
So excited to see some familiar faces here and get to know you all!
Hi, I'm Cassey. I got my BFP at 9DPO on the 23rd. EDD based on LMP is September 4th but based on O day it's the 5th. We will see what the doctor says. DH and I have been married for 11 years. We have a 2 year old little boy. I had a MMC in July of this year. I was suppose to be 10 weeks but baby measured 6w2d. We were heartbroken. I believe this is our rainbow. I'm so excited to be here and I look forward to getting to know you all. Wishing everyone a H&H 9 months!
Hi ladies!! My name is Kaishonta. I am from Mobile, AL. I am 27 and my husband is 30. We are on our third pregnancy now with a history of a miscarriage at 11 weeks and a still birth of our son Jaidyn at 21 weeks. We got a real deal positive pregnancy test on Christmas Day (talk about Christmas Miracle!!) I pray that you ladies as well as my self have a happy and healthy nine months. I hope that we can stay in touch too.
Hi all! Due with LO #2 9/6... This is my 4th pregnancy, 1st one resulted in a healthy beautiful girl, #2 sept 2014 miscarried at 7 weeks due to low progesterone #3 December 2014 chemical, and now this one. Extremely! Nervous but trying to keep positive vibes that whatever happens happens! I have really no symptoms except fatigue. Hoping for happy healthy pregnancys for everyone!
** loss mentioned** Hey everyone - I'm Karen Beth jumping ship over here from TTC board after a CP in November. This Community was so helpful to me when TTC, and I just know it will be further down the road in the coming months. I got my bfp last week and we're still kinda in shock, I keep taking tests every other day to make sure there's still a line. What happened last month is truly messing with us. had bloodwork last week to confirm hcg levels and going back today so my doc can monitor them going up before I make my first appointment. Nervous. Online calculator is giving me a due date of Sept 1st I'm prob somewhere on the cusp of August and Sept due date. (this is my first and I'm 35)
Anyway - hoping the first few weeks of the first trimester and going well for you ladies. I'm excited to get to know you all and support each other. Happy Holidays!!!

Hi to all! I got a BFP super squinter x2 on Wednesday the 23rd, and waited to tell DH until I confirmed it with more tests and a couple of digitals on Christmas Eve. EDD 9/2/16. We are beyond excited! We have been married for a little over a year, but together for 9 1/2 years.
Here's to a happy and healthy 9 months for everyone!

Hello ! I am excited to be here ! I am currently 3 weeks 6 days by my calculations ! Estimated due date of September 7th.
I had a miscarriage with my son at 16 weeks, this past September. We were benched for the last three months and are back in the game and are cautiously optimistic about our newest little one ! I have a 21 month old son who has been and continues to be my saving grace !
I'm not sure if there are any other S'16 moms here yet. I just got my first + HPT today. I'm 35 and this is baby #2. EDD based on LMP is 9/7/16. I ran from this place when the Bump Gods cleaned house in order to improve their app ratings and swore I'd never be back, but I forged some great friendships with some great women the last time around and think it might be great again. I hope that there is still room for snark and humor.
At 35, I am now magically AMA. My first is only 9 months but we wanted them to be close in age and have our two quickly before I ran out of eggs. MH is 44 and this will be his 4th, his first two are 19 and 14 and the 14 year old lives with us now.
I'm excited to be here and can't wait to meet more S'16 mamas.
Hey Super Fudge! Your situation sounds soooo similar to mine!
I have a 9 1/2 month old boy. And like you, me and DH have decided to have another so that the two kids can be close in age. I'm also 35. DH has a son from a previous marriage who is 13 and living with us.
Based on my LMP, my EDD is September 6! Good luck in this pregnancy and I hope to see you around the board!
Hi, all! I'm Amanda, I'm 33 and I live in the Northeast. My husband is 38 -- we've been married for five years and this is our first. We got a BFP on 12/23 (actually, three positive tests: one Wondflo, one digital, and one non-digital). I'm four weeks and five days along.
We have an EDD of 8/31 (based on LMP), but I'm not sure as to my cycle length (I had an IUD removed in November and had my first AF in eight years that month) and I've heard first babies tend to be late so I thought I'd check in here. My first doctor's appointment isn't until January so I'm nervous but really happy to be here.
We just got the good news the day after Christmas! I am 29 and my husband is 30, we just got married in September. I can't believe it happened so quickly. My husband has a 12 year old daughter and she has been talking about being a big sister so I know she will be excited. This is my first pregnancy and I am happy, scared, and every emotion in between. Using the calculator on here, my due date is 9/2/16!
My first appointment is Jan 18th, can't wait for it! Congratulations to everyone!!!
Hi everyone! Just found out yesterday that we are expecting another little one! Looks like the EDD is September 5th. We just had our little boy in June 2015. We were looking to have our children close together but we were not expecting this. I'm so excited to be apart of the September '16 moms
Hello, my name is Amber. I got my BFP today!! Went to the doctor and they confirmed with a urine test and my blood work. This will be my husband and I's first child. I'm super excited and very nervous! We have only been trying about 3 months.
My blood work came back with levels in the 282 range. Still very very early and I'm going back on Thursday!! So excites!

Hi everyone. I'm Jillian and we just found out on 12/26 that we're expecting again!
We have boy/girl twins that just turned 6 this month and have been TTC again since the beginning of this year. Our first U/S will be on 1/4 to determine if this is a single or multiple pregnancy. Can't wait!
Hi Ladies!!!! I'm so excited to finally be here:). I'm Jessica, 37 y/o and this is my first pregnancy. I'm 4w2d and am due September 3rd. H and H 9 months to all of us:)
Hi all! So Happy to be back on here after a loss in August at 10 weeks. feeling pretty nervous but thankful not to see another bfn this month! I'm 31, DH is 36, and this will be our first. Got a BFP on 12/26 and EDD is 9/1/16 based on LMP.
Hi all!!! Just finally got a BFP at cd 40, but only 12 dpo I have one daughter who was a September 13 baby...I'm back baby!!! We have been trying since March so I'm very excited
Hey @imakeeff0rts@whitneylux and @noelani42 !!!! Creeping over from the August board. Edd is August 28 so I might end up over here. This is our third baby (fifth pregnancy). We had our second miscarriage back in May so I'm a little anxious of course. First ultrasound is January 13. I've got a good feeling about this one though.
We said goodbye to our sweet Taylor Ashley on August 8, 2012.We lost baby Noelle on May 1, 2015
Mom to Cam and Al, now expecting baby number 3, August 2016. Praying for lots of sticky baby dust!
Hey ladies! I'm so excited to have made it here! I'm currently 11dpo, and have been getting super squinters for 2 days now. Decided to test with a digital this afternoon, and it said pregnant! I'm not officially late yet, (af due this Saturday) so I think once that date has come and gone, I'll rest a little easier (who am I kidding...I'm so excited!!) If this bean sticks, EDD (from fertility friend) is 9/9, which is 1 week after my birthday. What a special birthday present that will be Can't wait to get to know you all!
I'm Tasha, and just found out this morning (12/29) that we are expecting! I have a daughter who is 5, and it's going to be hard to keep this from her! My husband of 8 years and I have been TTC for the past year. We experienced loss before our DD, and so are cautious of sharing with people (especially so early!)
I had great connections 5 years ago here on the bump, and hope to have a group of people to share with, so I don't go spilling the beans to everyone else yet! According to LMP We are due 9/2/16!
I'm really excited to be here. I'm 25 and my boyfriend is 24. I have a DD who will be five in January.
I got my BFP on the 26th. And I am so excited, however, I have had three miscarriages in the last year. I'm extremely nervous but have a good gut feeling about this pregnancy. Praying for sticky babies and healthy pregnancies!
Hi there I'm Brittany and I just found out we are expecting. We have a 5 year old daughter and 8 month little girl. This was a BIG SURPRISE. I am beyond nervous to be adding a third especially so soon. As you can see we waited some time before having our second. Congrats to all you mommies!
Very, very cautiously introducing myself. Found out today that I'm pregnant. We have two great little girls. My older daughter will be 4 in a couple of weeks and my little one turned 2 at the end of October.
We have been trying for a third, but it hasn't been easy. Unfortunately, I suffered two miscarriages this year (June and October). In total, this is my 7th time being pregnant. That seems insane to say/type. In addition to the two miscarriages earlier this year, I had one miscarriage before the birth of each of my daughters.
My emotions are running high and I know my nerves will be bad especially until/through the initial ultrasound.
Looks like my due date is 9/8. Just a few days after my birthday! I'm trying to stay positive. I hope the third time is a charm.
Congrats to all you other mamas! Here's hoping for a happy and healthy 9 months for all of us!
Hi Everyone! I just got a light positive on a wondfo and a dollar store test this morning (13dpo), so I'm tentatively introducing myself. If this is a sticky bean, my EDD from FF is 9/8. I was born 16 days late, so we'll see how this goes. I'm still hesitant to believe this is real, and am going to keep testing daily to ensure the tests get darker. I currently don't have any symptoms that differ from my usual PMS symptoms, but I assume this will change in a couple of weeks. ETA: I'm 28 and DH is 29. This is my first pregnancy.
I spent the last 3.5 months over on TTGP and am happy to see a lot of familiar names here! It also conditioned me to be a big fan of gifs, snark, and of course science-based reasoning. I am particularly fond of Doctor Who and Star Wars gifs.
Congrats, and happy & healthy 9 months to everyone here!
Hi my name is Jamie I'm 33 years old.Just found out today that baby #2 is expected 9-8. I am a sahm to a super awesome 16 month old girl and we spend most of our days out on little adventures trying to keep busy,as well as taking care of my 17 year old step son and their dad. I'm excited to get to know all of you as well as your new little ones when the time comes. Congrats to all of you!!
Hello! I got my BFP Christmas morning and had the pregnancy confirmed via blood work yesterday. My husband and I are both 32 and we have a son who will be 3 in February. This is my third pregnancy (my second ended up being a chemical loss.) EDD is Sept. 2nd. I look forward to getting to know everyone!

Hi everyone! We got a surprise bfp this month and my EDD is 9/3/16. It was unexpected but wonderful. We have been going to an RE since last January, but we conceived while taking a break from meds. I had a CP in June and I really wasn't sure that I would get a bfp again. I'm very nervous since it's so early. It's hard to get excited.
Hello everyone! Just a quick intro to say hi. I got my bfp on cd11 (dec 27th) but after having a cp in October I was having some trouble believing this would stick. I tested again today and got another very strong bfp! Still nervous but after reading all of the intros here it seems I am not alone in that feeling.
My hubby and I are 33 and this will be our first! We have been married about 2 1/2 years but have been together for about 13 years.... took a while to get that baby urge I guess!
Glad to see some familiar names from ttc, hope we have some more joining soon.
My name is Holly. EDD is 9/3/16 with our first (unless it turns out to be twins). We just found out I'm pregnant 2 days ago (first IVF attempt) after suffering a CP at almost 5 weeks back in the begining of August (found out at our second beta and was devastated, especially since it followed on the heels of an extremely difficult month). My husband Elliot and I have been trying since October of last year, with 4 failed IUI's (plus the 1 IUI that ended in CP) and several months of trying naturally with no success.
I don't have any official infertility diagnoses, aside from hyperprolactinemia (which has been completely under control for months and was probably due to the medications I was taking, which I'm now mostly off of) and slight hypothyroidism.
I have various other health issues, but nothing fertility-related or particularly serious.
I'm currently a housewife, although when I worked previously, it was as a therapist, working with autistic and ED/BD children. I'm an aunt to 4 kiddos (2 boys, 2 girls, aged 15 to 10; all of them my husband's sister's) and looking forward to finally having my own little one(s).
First baby just turned one on Christmas Day! We were not planning on having another just yet so this is sort of a surprise, but I am sure that I will get my head around it soon and I know that there is a long way to go yet, we had a miscarriage first time around so I know how careful you have to be during these first weeks.
I followed the board first time around but it was awful snarky so I am hoping this board will be full of lovely people!!
Hubby and I have been married for nearly 4 years, I am a Brit and he is American and we live in the US!
Dh and I have been married for almost 6 years. We have a DS who is 5, and a DD who is 3. This was our second month trying for a third, and most likely last baby. I tested on a whim yesterday morning, which is really early, but was surprised for it to be positive. Have since gone through many more tests, all positive! EDD based off LMP is 9/11/16.
I was on the bump with both my previous pregnancies, and loved being able to interact with the other ladies! Looking forward to it again this time!
Hi!!! Got my first BFP on the 23rd which was 5dp5dt. My DH and I were unable to have children on our own and adopted embryos! Transferred 2 five day blasts on the 18th and tada! Needless to say I'm so excited and nervous!!! I'm struggling to focus on today and not worry about tomorrow. My hcg levels are good so far, just hoping my little snowflake(s) continue to stick.
I think it's also safe to say I'm nervous about starting over again. I'm 37 and my only son just turned 18!!!

I got my first BFP 12/22 at 12 DPO and reassured myself (after a bit of *hopefully normal* spotting and cramping) with another BFP on 12/24.
I surprised DH on Christmas with the news! He is 34 and I'm 29. This is LO #2 - our DD was born 9/12/13.
Based on my LMP, EDD is 9/1. My first came 8 days early so (assuming this little nugget sticks) he or she may be an August baby.
Went in for bloodwork today and am excitedly/anxiously awaiting results!
H&H 9 months to us all!

I tested again today and got another very strong bfp! Still nervous but after reading all of the intros here it seems I am not alone in that feeling.
My hubby and I are 33 and this will be our first! We have been married about 2 1/2 years but have been together for about 13 years.... took a while to get that baby urge I guess!
Glad to see some familiar names from ttc, hope we have some more joining soon.
My name is Holly. EDD is 9/3/16 with our first (unless it turns out to be twins). We just found out I'm pregnant 2 days ago (first IVF attempt) after suffering a CP at almost 5 weeks back in the begining of August (found out at our second beta and was devastated, especially since it followed on the heels of an extremely difficult month). My husband Elliot and I have been trying since October of last year, with 4 failed IUI's (plus the 1 IUI that ended in CP) and several months of trying naturally with no success.
I don't have any official infertility diagnoses, aside from hyperprolactinemia (which has been completely under control for months and was probably due to the medications I was taking, which I'm now mostly off of) and slight hypothyroidism.
I have various other health issues, but nothing fertility-related or particularly serious.
I'm currently a housewife, although when I worked previously, it was as a therapist, working with autistic and ED/BD children. I'm an aunt to 4 kiddos (2 boys, 2 girls, aged 15 to 10; all of them my husband's sister's) and looking forward to finally having my own little one(s).

I just found out I am pregnant, again!
First baby just turned one on Christmas Day! We were not planning on having another just yet so this is sort of a surprise, but I am sure that I will get my head around it soon and I know that there is a long way to go yet, we had a miscarriage first time around so I know how careful you have to be during these first weeks.
I followed the board first time around but it was awful snarky so I am hoping this board will be full of lovely people!!
Hubby and I have been married for nearly 4 years, I am a Brit and he is American and we live in the US!
Dh and I have been married for almost 6 years. We have a DS who is 5, and a DD who is 3. This was our second month trying for a third, and most likely last baby. I tested on a whim yesterday morning, which is really early, but was surprised for it to be positive. Have since gone through many more tests, all positive! EDD based off LMP is 9/11/16.
I was on the bump with both my previous pregnancies, and loved being able to interact with the other ladies! Looking forward to it again this time!

Got my first BFP on the 23rd which was 5dp5dt. My DH and I were unable to have children on our own and adopted embryos! Transferred 2 five day blasts on the 18th and tada! Needless to say I'm so excited and nervous!!! I'm struggling to focus on today and not worry about tomorrow. My hcg levels are good so far, just hoping my little snowflake(s) continue to stick.
I think it's also safe to say I'm nervous about starting over again. I'm 37 and my only son just turned 18!!!
