Hello everyone!! First off congratulations to everyone and their BFPs!! excited to get to know everyone the next 10 months or so!
This will be baby#4 for us, ironically I was temping and everything this past July to "prepare" for TCC in August. out whole family was sick around when I ovulated and we only DTD one time 3 days before O. I was **so** sure we were out that DH and had a talk and decided we should wait to TTC a bit longer and so we bought a puppy!! imagine my surprise when 2 days after we brought him home I had a BFP.
Still haven't told DH as I want to wait a bit to make sure this is a "Sticky" baby as I had a chemical this past December.
Pretty sure this will be our last little miracle.
Super excited EDD is 4.8.17
#1 DD June 2009
#2 DS July 2011 #3 DD June 2014 CP December 2015 M/C 8/2016 Rainbow & Babe #4 EDD 7.28.18
I am 34, DH is 33. This is baby #3, via IVF. I have a 3.5 year old and a 1.5 year old. I still post on the bmb of my oldest, but not my second child's board. They post (posted, the bump apocalypse divided up the board) mega threads, like one 10+ page thread per day. I don't have time to weed through that. Looking forward to sharing this time with you guys!
IVF/ICSI #1 - BFP, DS born Jan 2013
IVF/ICSI #2 - BFP, DD born Feb 2015 IVF FET - BFP, due April 2017
Hello April Mamas!!! Im Tina and I'm 35 I'm a SAHM living in good ole Ohio. This is baby number 2 for my husband Boone and I. Audrey is 3.5 and a little threenager. I was super active on my J13 BMB and then jumped into our fb group and still going strong! Hoping to get to know you ladies! My edd for this little bean is 4-5-17.
Hey there! Second time preggo here who got her BFP today (and I swear I'm already having round ligament pain. Awesome). Monkey boy will be three in November and I'm 4w2d due April 8th. I'm the GM of a successful vacation rental company on the Oregon Coast and hubs works for a major cable company. I'm still around my November 2013 FB group and looking forward to getting to know you ladies.
I've lurked for few days, but after a few bfps, I'm just going to go for it. I am cautiously optimistic and will probably feel that way all through 1st tri. This is my second - I have a 2 year old and was active on my March 2014 bmb until shortly after he was born because everything just slowed down. So I missed the bump drama that divided so many boards. I'm guessing it was sort of recently since so many are still talking about it. Anyway, I just recently became an active member of ttgp and was not expecting a bfp this month. This was our 5th cycle trying and I was just beginning to grasp that it was going to take a while. Then boom. There were two lines. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Hi all. I am 34 and found out July 24th that DH and I are expecting #5 EDD end of March or first of April (wont know until my appointment because I have super irregular periods) From my period EDD 3.30.17 but I am guessing it will be moved to April so I hope no one minds if I stick around here
I have had two pg's that were due in Spring and I think its the best time of year to have a babe for many reasons (not too big for holidays, aren't ku through the hot months, new LO is born at the end of flu season, etc.) A little shocked but excited for another LO and anticipating the excitement to see what we are having. (A boy would be great even though we would love a girl too, and of course really just pray the LO is healthy).
DS (9) DD (6) DD (4) DD (19 months)
I was also a gestational carrier for a dear friend in between DD #3 and DD #4.
I love being pregnant but am shocked that we easily and surprisingly got pg (had IUD removed to do health issues and were using condoms) as the first 3 took nine plus months and for DD #2 clomid for us to conceive.
Hello! Just got my BFP this morning! Needless to say I am freaking out. Haven't told DH yet since he was still sleeping and his birthday is in a week, I might try to hold out for a couple days and tell him as a birthday surprise. DH is almost 31, I am 26. DH is an operator and I work at a prison. The google says my EDD is 4/11/17. Our 5 year old doggie is going to be a fabulous older brother I'm sure lol.
This is crazy. I cannot believe it actually worked.
Hello! I just got a faint positive on two seperate tests. This will Baby #2. DH and I have a beautiful 3 year old daughter and we are excited to give her a little brother or sister! Looking forward to this experience again! EDD is April 15
Hello! I am joining from the infertility boards, having just successfully completed our 3rd round of IVF. We had our first blood test done 7/26 and the beta was 144, the second one was done 7/28 and was 271. Right now our EDD is 4/5.
You would think that once we got a BFP we wouldn't worry anymore and just enjoy this time, however we are MUCH more nervous now then we have ever been.
Congrats to everyone else on your BFP, let's enjoy this journey together!

My first baby is 11 months old and we are ecstatic to find out he's going to be a big brother! Sweet baby #2 EDD 4/4/17! It's so fun to have this birth month club because it's too early to tell anyone else. Looking forward to many months with you all!
Congratulations, ladies! I got my bfp on my 25th birthday (July 29) and have an edd of April 8th. I'm a chemo nurse on a progressive care unit which makes me a little nervous.... My fella is 53 years old and this is a first for both of us. First appointment is coming up in a couple weeks and we're so excited! Prayers for each of you and your little poppyseeds
I'm a stay at home Mum to a one year old girl. A week after her first birthday we found out I was pregnant (yay!) so in nine months time, and if all goes well, I'll be looking after two under two (gasp!).
I'm old. So a big shout out to all my AMA Mamas. Let's all support each other and share tips on knitting and how to achieve the right shade of blue hair. (Is it bad that I actually like knitting and have always wanted to dye my hair blue? Just not in a Golden Girls way).
So for a real intro - I'm 33, husband is 35, we live in New York City and have a 2.5 year old daughter. This will be baby #2, due on April 1 - cue the Fools Day jokes!(Possibly late March once we have a dating scan, but honestly, April 1 sounds much more fun). I was previously on the Dec 2013 board. It was very entertaining. Hoping this BMM is just as cool.
Fellow former D13!!
Hey everyone! This is baby #2 for us, EDD 4/04.
I deactivated from TB when everyone else did, but I'm back and ready for the listeria hysteria again!!
Congrats to all of you ladies, hopes for a great 9 months!
***TW - loss*** Hello everyone. I am moving over from the TTGP board, which I have been a member of since the end of January. We started trying for #2 in April and got a BFP in June. The ended in an early miscarriage at about 5 weeks, a month ago today actually. We decided to NTNP this month with the plan of trying again full force next cycle. We had sex once during my fertile week and apparently that was enough. I just got my BFP yesterday, after feeling a little weird and wondering. I kept it a secret and took another one last night, with another BFP and then took a FRER this morning with a pretty dark line. Today is DH's birthday so I wrapped that up like a present and gave it to him to open this morning. He was very surprised. It was adorable. According to my chart I am 11dpo today and due April 15th. PGAL brain is hard though and so I am trying my hardest to keep expectations low, at least for a couple of weeks.
Some other stuff about me... I just turned 26. I am a SAHM and started my own birth doula business in the spring. So, it is going to be hard to reign that in as we get farther into our pregnancies. DD will be 3 in September. She is literally the best kid ever. Her personality is awesome and I hope we have another one just like her. DH graduated with his masters in architecture in May and the job hunt is still going on. Although now with baby #2 coming I think that has lit a fire under him to get a job locked down. We are living with SIL and my 8 month old nephew until DH gets a job, which better be freaking soon. I love crocheting and am also a huge babywearer! I am competing in my 1st triathlon on Sunday. And then I am probably hanging up the running shoes for the rest of the pregnancy.

First time posting. I'm 31 and DH is 34. I unfortunately had a miscarriage at 10 weeks at the end of March and now am lucky enough to be pregnant again. I'm excited, but worried. I really don't want to have another loss. So I'm cautiously optimistic. EDD is April 7, 2017.
Nice to meet you all.
MMC @ 10w March 2016 Cautiously expecting April 5, 2017
Hesitantly popping in, but I got a BFP yesterday! I am SUPER early on, and I'm always a nervous wreck until first tri is over.
DH and I are both 29, DS was born July15, so if all goes well we'll have 2 under 2 for a little while, eep! It took us nearly 3 years to get pregnant the first time, so we figured we would start trying for the second after DS turned 1...and it looks like it only took one try! I completely thought we missed it...I had a positive OPK while DH was out of town for work, and we DTD 4 days before and 4 days after, so I assume me OPK wasn't totally accurate. I'm still in shock and haven't told DS. I called my OB today so I can get bloods done, and if that looks good I think I'll relax a little.
EDD is April 12, 2017, but my cycles are super irregular so that might change after the dating ultrasound.
I find myself also in the "cautiously optimistic" bunch as my first pregnancy resulted in a miscarriage with D&C and my 4th pregnancy (after two healthy daughters) was an ectopic pregnancy this past April. I've had three hCG levels drawn with great results and I'm anxiously awaiting an ultrasound scheduled for this Friday which should rule out a repeat ectopic. EDD 4/4/2017!

Hey everyone, and congrats! I got my BFP on Monday and have been processing ever since. Im unsure of my due date but my guess is 4/6. My cycles are long and irregular so we will see for sure at my first ultrasound. I'm 30, and my husband is 32 and this will be baby number FOUR! (((Eeek!))) I have a 4.5 year old and 2.5 year old twins, I too was part of D13.
Hey everyone! I am 24 years old and I just tested positive last night. I have 3 girls already, Nov 09, Jan 10, and June 15. This baby was 100% the biggest surprise of my life, and our first accident! DH and I have been married for 7 years. I have an English degree and am (was???) planning to start an accelerated BSN program at the end of this month.

Hi everyone and congrats on your BFP's! I am 29 years old and DH is 31. We have two children already DS (April 10) and DD (Nov 12). Got my confirmation from the Dr's office yesterday and scheduled my first appt but based on my LMP my EDD is 4.7.17.
Hello, I've been hesitant to join this group since I had two miscarriages this year. I am 29 and DH is 33. This will be our first child. Doctor gave me do date of 3-26-17 but I know I ovulated later so I believe my EDD is 4-1-17. congrats to all the mamas!
Morning! I got my BFP a few weeks ago, with another April Fools EDD. DH and I live north of Boston and have a 2 year old DD. First appointment is 8/15 and so excited!
Oh yay!!! I can finally comment!!! I've been watching the boards for a while now, but haven't been able to write anything!
Hello!!! So...I'm a STM from Manitoba, Canada. I'm about to turn 28, and DH is 26. Our DS is 14 months. I was active on the May 2015 board (under a different username), and still am on the facebook group that we made. I was a Social Worker previously, but now I'm a SAHM who works casually at a hospital.
Got my BFP on Monday (August 1) and my EDD is April 7th! So excited to join you ladies!!
Hello! We got our BFP (all three of them, because I was in shock) on July 25th. We're due April 3rd. I'm a librarian, DH is an engineer. We have 2 cats and a turtle. Not sure what else you want to know.
Hey ladies! I can finally comment. That 72 hour thing is hard! Lol. I got my BFP July 29, faint positive, 10dpo if I'm correct. This will be baby number 3 for us! DD #1 is 4 (may 12 bmc) I'm part of a smaller group that branched off after a lot of drama and a handful of scams that formed in the group and on FB. DD#2 just turned 2, I never had time to join a bmc with her pregnancy! We are crossing our fingers for a boy, but healthy is our main goal! DH and I are both 30, he's a career fireman and I work for the post office part time. Here's to having a great group of women already!
Hey there! I haven't been to the doctor yet to confirm for sure how far along I am, but currently my EDD is April 4th. This is my first baby and I am super thrilled because we have been trying for a few months now. I am 25 and my husband is 27 and we have been married for 4 years. We just found out July 30th!
I'm a stay at home mom in her early 30s currently living in south Jersey. I found out last week I was pregnant with #5 and due on April 5. My other kiddos are 8, 7, 2.5, and 18 months. I tend to have really rough first trimesters and we are waiting a bit to start telling even family so I'll probably just be over here hanging on for dear life for the next few weeks.
Hi Everyone! I just got my first positive last night and again this morning! I'm 27 and DH is 31. This is our first time TTC and my EDD is currently 4/7. So excited to be part of the community!
Hi ladies, I'm predempsey and am due with #2 April 9th. I got pregnant with my first almost too easily and after a year of trying a second time was diagnosed with PCOS and started with an RE. I had a miscarriage in April at 7 weeks and after my second medicated cycle (letrozole + ovidrel) am pregnant again. I need a place to vent since I'm understandably keeping this pregnancy more quiet than my previous two. I am 28, DH is 32 and we are in western NY. Beta #1 & #2 were great numbers so we'll see..
PCOS diagnosed secondary infertility
BFP #1 (letrozole 2.5mg + ovidrel) February 2016, MMC April 2016 @ 7 weeks
Hello all, I'm joining the party. I got my BFP on July 30, EDD 4/8/17. We tried for a year and a half without so much as a speck of a line so I am still kind of in disbelief! I'm 36 and DH is 41 and we have an almost 4-year-old son. Excited to start this journey again! I'm a little rusty though so I know all of you ladies will be a great help!
Hello April mamas! I'm a SAHM and pregnant with #2. My son is 22 months, and we have two rescue doggies. My husband and I are both 34. I was a chef before we moved to a small town in the country for my husbands job, right about the same time my son was born. I'm pretty stoked about not dealing with all the cooking smells in the first trimester this time. I was active on some boards a couple years ago but sort of went MIA with the cross-country move and buying a house from afar thing. Then all the drama happened and I never reconnected. Please bear with me while I relearn all the lingo and abbreviations. I'm excited to get to know all of you, and am hoping for sticky babies all around.
