I think I should have posted my intro here so I've copied/pasted it below...
Hi all,
My name is Lisa (34) and my boyfriend Ron (34) and I are expecting our first child together. I had a salpingostomy for bilateral ectopic pregnancies last year (one in each tube) and had a miscarriage earlier this year so naturally we were initially cautious. However, we've already had our first sonogram (7/27) which confirmed a 5w5d fetus with an estimated due date of March 24, 2017. Our first OB appt w/9 week sonogram is upcoming on 8/24. We are thrilled to be joining the ranks of expectant parents and I'm looking forward to hearing about all your experiences and learning from each of you.
Congrats to each one of you and here's to healthy, productive pregnancies.
I've been lingering on this March 2017 board for awhile and excited to finally post! We are pregnant with our first with an EDD of March 24! I am 34 and DH is 33 and we're from Milwaukee. We were married in June 2015. We had a second US on Friday, measuring 7w2d and a heartbeat at 160bpm. Awesome to see!
So far I've been feeling great...hope it stays that way! Now I'm just anxious to learn as much as possible on this journey with you lovely ladies!
Hey all, I'm back from vacation and slowly adding everyone to the spreadsheet as I have time. I'm working from the newest backward, so please bear with me! Also, I love all of you that added yourselves!
Thanks for keeping up on this, @Scarlett830. That is a whole lot of work!

Hello all! I am 9w3d with baby number three! EDD is March 10, 2017, got my BFP on Saturday the 6th! I have a two year old daughter, and 1 year old son already so this is unexpected but I am ddetermined to have a positive experience! No Dr visit yet until insurance comes through, just experiencing the usual first trimester symptoms. I am 24 and DH is 30. I have three bonus kids from his first marriage as well. My biggest fear is having to have this baby unmedicated, my previous two labors were traumatizing so that's the issue I am working through! Thank you for reading and congratulations to every mother to be!
Hello all! I have been trying to post but the app on my phone keeps malfunctioning. Forgive me if I have multiple posts on this! My name is Jessica, I have three daughters (aged 3 and under) and I am due with baby #4 on March 3rd! My husband and I have been married for 4 years so this has been a wild past few years, full of pregnancy and new babies! I am so excited to be a part of this group. I was a part of October '15 and I really appreciated the ladies from there. I am 26 yrs old and from Canada... That is all I can think to describe myself lol. I am really hoping that I can keep posting & interracting, in spite of my app issues!! All the best!
Hi all ! I'm Mrs. Mo and my EDD is 3/22 . I have 2 other kids: my daughter will be 5 next month and my son will also be 3 next month.
I have been around these boards since the beginning of time. If you were here back in 2010/2011, you probably remember me I love helping out answering questions but can also be a snarky biatch at times. I went through hell and back (years TTC, failed IUIs, IVF) to get my daughter, so I have grown some thick skin.

-Stuck in the box- Not only do we have the same due date but my husband and I are also first time parents and we were married in June of 2015 as well!! Welcome! Glad you are feeling great!
Hey everyone! I have a daughter who is 2y10m, and I'm currently 8 weeks pregnant! EDD is March 21st. First doctor's appointment is next Tuesday, so I'm very anxious and excited!
Hi! I'm a freelance writer/editor (WAHM... or will be the M part soon!) expecting my first (EDD March 4) in San Diego. I have no idea what I'm doing!!!!
BFP on June 19. It took the first ovulation cycle to get pregnant, but I can feel my O pains so that made it easy. EDD is March 1, 2017. First pregnancy. I've been married 5 years.
I've been lurking and waiting to introduce, and lurking and waiting to introduce some more, and so I'm doing it. I'm 36 and my husband is 35. We've been married for 11 years this Saturday and I'm currently 10+4 weeks pregnant. We live in Texas where the high today is 102 degrees, and I'm not so patiently waiting for fall weather. Or, really any weather that doesn't make me sweat just walking outside! I'm looking forward to getting to know y'all!
I have been lurking for a little bit and thought I would introduce myself. My edd is 3-14 pi day! I teach high school math so that day is fun! I have a 2 year old and a wonderful husband. I had 3 negative test before I got bfp. It was a long 3 weeks! I look forward to getting to know you ladies more!
My name is Magda! My EDD is 3/9/17 and my BFP was 7/7, a week after Hubby and I returned from Turks & Caicos. I missed my period during the trip and that's when we got excited.
I am 40yo and my Hubby is 44. This is my 4th pregnancy, but I've never delivered. Actually, this is the furthest I've ever gone with a pregnancy. My Hubby has 2 kids from a previous marriage. They are 16 & 18.
Last week we went in for my first U/S & measured exactly where I thought AND saw an extremely strong heartbeat. WOOOHOOOO!!!
Congrats to all of you! I look forward to *chatting* with you! ❤️
Hi ladies! I'm Rachel, 26 years old and live in NZ! I'm engaged to my partner Sam and we have a 10 month old son called Henry. Very excited to be adding to our wee family! Congratulations to you all!
Im late!! But i suppose i should inroduce myself. Amber - 9wks with twins. I have my rainbow baby who is 8months old after 5yrs of infertility and an 8 yr old. Was definitely not expecting to be pregnant... and even more not expecting twins, but here i am due March 16th and sleeping now while possible
pandalily !! We absolutely ADORED Turks & Caicos!! We stayed at the Ocean Club East. Got a great deal on a spacious suite. It was PERFECT. We can't wait to go back! How about you?
Hello! First time mom here. Got our BFP on July 6th, EDD is March 17th. My husband is of Irish descent and hoping our baby is born on due date. Had first ultrasound last Friday, August 5th and got to see baby's arm and leg buds, heart beating, and cord. Dr says all looks good and strong. I'm beyond excited and so in awe of this magical time!
I'm late to the draw because I found out I am pregnant at almost 8 weeks! I have a 5 year old step son and a 16 month old son. This "oops" has thrown us for a loop but is exciting too. I thought I had a period in July but apparently it want. Had an ultrasound this week as my hcg numbers last week were very high considering we thought I was just 4 weeks but the ultrasound showed a little 8 week 5 day baby. So my edd is March 19!
@triwellnessgirl that's awesome! I think that was one of the places we looked at but we ended up staying at Seven Stars. But yes cannot wait to go back...hopefully for 10 years

Hi everyone! Happy to be here! I'm due Mar 23rd with out 2nd child conceived with an IUD firmly in place and apparently working just fine
So excited to be on this journey with all you amazing mamas (and papas if you're out there ) I was a member during my last pregnancy, so I'm glad to be back!
Hey there ! Well this is going to be a long story but I'm excited to be here. My name is Kelsey, I am 25 years old and my BF is 31. My EDD is March 25th but that's my estimate and could be off at least 2 weeks. TW
I was previously in the BMB for November 2016 but on May 20th I experienced a missed miscarriage. I'm thankful that it was pretty painless (physically) but emotionally it was destroying. I have PCOS so we decided to start trying again once we got the OK from the Dr. This happened quite a lot faster then I did have liked but I feel what's meant to be will be. I'm really looking forward to getting to know everyone here and lend support whenever I am able too. Also! I work a tonne so if I go inactive for a few days don't be alarmed lol I'll be back
Currently 8w1d pregnant with our Rainbow! We had a MMC at 18 weeks this past April and praying that this baby is sticky and cozy for the next 7 months! EDD is March 24-Friday before Spring Break! Perfect for this teacher (:
Married to my DH 7/18/15 BFP 12/17/15 MMC @ 18 weeks 4/7/16
Hello ladies! I'm nervous/excited to be here. Looks like I'm older than many of you. I'm 38 and this is my 3rd child. I've been married for almost 18 years and have one boy and one girl now. It's been awhile since I've been on and pregnancy boards since my youngest will be 9 on Tues. I have to familiarize myself with the terms again. My EDD is 3/27.
Hi everyone & congrats to you all!! I'm new here with my first pregnancy, EDD 3/28/17 (but I'm considered high risk for early delivery so might be a little sooner) and got my first positive test on 7/18. I took 3 other tests since then too just to be extra sure haha
My husband & I will celebrate our first anniversary in a few weeks and we're both thrilled/excited/nervous/etc... I'm 30 & he's 33; we adopted a 2 y/o dog last summer so he's been like our first baby lol, we're so happy to be adding a human baby to our little family!
@mrsbjtee yikes about the IUD not working! You're the second person I've heard that has gotten pregnant with an IUD in. Congrats to you and your little surprise!
Hi everyone! My name is Jodi and I'm from South Carolina. I'm 35 years old and just got married this year in March. My DH is 37 years old. Because of our ages, we didn't want to wait too long before trying...so here we are! My EDD is 3/23/17. This is my first pregnancy and I feel so excited, yet overwhelmed with everything so I'm very grateful to belong to a community of people going through this same thing along with me!
I didn't want to introduce myself until I felt a little better about the pregnancy because I actually had a cervical biopsy a couple of weeks ago due to some abnormal cells and whatnot. I ended up bleeding a good bit afterwards and didn't know if everything was actually still ok until my ultrasound on Friday. After seeing and hearing the baby's heartbeat, I felt like it was time for me to join in on the discussions!
Hi all! I had been over on the April BMB but today's appointment has me with an EDD of 3/30/17 so I guess I can hang here?
got my BFP on 7/29 and it was a bit of a shocker as this little nugget wasn't planned for a few more years but we're so excited and happy! We have an almost 18 month old boy who is the light of our lives and our own miracle, born at 25+6 weeks when I suffered a placental abruption. He spent the first 2 months of his life in the NICU and now you'd never be able to tell.
Congrats everyone!

Hi, I'm Alicia. This is my second pregnancy. I had a miscarriage on June 11, and got pregnant unexpectedly very shortly afterward. I had a really tough mourning process. I hadn't cried like that since my childhood dog passed away. I had put a lot of love and emotional energy into my first baby, and when I lost it it truly broke a part of me. I really put myself out there too. I posted on this app, I posted on another forum that I frequent, I made a preliminary registry, I wondered if the baby liked my loud music in the car, and I fell asleep holding her every night. I no longer view pregnancy as something easy, and I hate (and still hate) those people- even close friends- who haven't experienced the pain and anguish associated with miscarriage. Aaand don't worry I see a therapist for all this heavy sh*t.
I had my first ultrasound a couple of days ago, and my husband and I saw our baby's legs move and we heard a very strong heartbeat. My OB was thrilled. However, I'm having a hard time forming an attachment. I had hoped things would feel more natural after that appointment, but I still feel disconnected. I am on vacation right now, and I bought a cute Parisian onesie, and brought the ultrasound photos with me to look at. I'm hoping things get better.
So anyway, my due date is St. Patty's Day, March 17, 2017.
@antarctica welcome! Congrats on your rainbow baby! And so Sorry to hear about your previous loss. Please do check in on the PGAL -(pregnant after loss) threads- there is support and Understanding having been through this same thing!
Hi all! Dani here, 33 from south Jersey and I am pregnant with #5, due March 27. I originally calculated my EDD as 4/5 so I was on the April board (still checking in there since several of my previous babes were tardy). Pleased to meet you all!
