  • Hi Ladies-  I guess it's time to join the boards again. I'm still in a little shock as myself and DH thought we were one and done. I had post partum congestive heart failure after my DD was born, who is is 3 1/2 years. My EDD is September 20th. This pregnancy will be high risk due to my health. Welcome everyone

  • Hi All
    Excited to be here. EDD 9/15 based on LMP. This will be baby #4. DS is 16, DD is 13, and DD was born feb2016. 
    So far no symptoms which is making me a little nervous.
  • @Starla I haven't yet because I felt like I might ruffle a few feathers since this past cycle was the first that I consistently contributed, though I had been posting intermittently and have been lurking daily for over a year. I really wanted to update, but am afraid it might be a bit AW.

  • @icecubeinthedesert it's a strange thing, lurking.  I lurked since mid 2014 & started participating coincidentally the month of my first BFP.  I didn't participate while benched much, and then another 2 months I did. And while I felt like really knew people, it was most likely one sided.  Its up to you, but I think if you were participating this past month, you deserve a post (and all the subsequent love tits) on the grad thread.  :)

    This is the same reason I didn't post.  Those lady's  have had some real struggles and I didn't want to upset anyone over there :)

    Same here. I didn't post because I wanted to error on the side of caution.
  • Add me to the list of people that didn't want to post on the grad thread, some of the ladies there are having a rough month and I'd only been there a few months so I decided not to.
  • Hi! I am a STM with a 14 month old daughter. Both pregnancies were surprises but my fiancé and I could not be more excited to have another little miracle! Based off of my cycle, my due date is Sept 10th. My first appointment is Feb 13th.

  • Hi ladies! I go here! I got my BFP last week. I'm 4w2d today. I have 3 kiddos (14, 2.5, &14 months) and this will be my 4th pregnancy. I have been married for 5.5 years. My H is a resident and we live in the Midwest. 

    I'm excited to get to know you all. 
  • Hi! I just found out that we are (hopefully) expecting our third. We have been trying for a year and half so I really hope that this is it. I had a m/c and d&c in June so I'm cautious but hopeful :) My two boys are 3 & 5 and we are really excited to add to our crazy two monkeys! I am 36 and have been married for 11 years.

  • Hello, I'm mom to one awesome little girl and looking forward to adding to our family. Based on LMP, EDD is 9/14, my first appointment is next week.
  • Hello, my name is Jessica I'm 36 and this baby will be my 4th. I have 2 boys 10 and 7 and a 2 year old daughter. This pregnancy was a complete shock. I found out 2 days ago and still can't believe it. My husband and I are very excited to add to our family. He is currently working 800 miles away so I'm a little nervous about being alone during the first trimester, working 2 jobs and raising 3 kids alone. The last group I belonged to on this sight was december2014 mom's. It provided so much information and comic relief so I'm excited to be a part of it again. I look forward to getting to know the rest of the mom's in this community.

    Wow, you must be an amazing supermom to be able to juggle that much on your own! Maybe you can share some tips on time management. Congratulations on your BFP! 
  • @Emeraldcity thank you. Not sure about the super mom title, more like super tired.

    You wear lots of hats, to do that successfully on your own most of the time qualifies you as a supermom! 
  • I'll be a third time mom when this LO arrives around 9/23. My daughter is 3y, 9m and my son is 1y, 9m. I got my BFP on 1/14…kind of a surprise, but we were not really serious about avoiding anyhow. I'm officially of AMA at 37 years old. My first appointment is at 11/12 weeks on 3/6.

    STM with a tentative due date of Sept 29th. I had my first a month early, but I'm assuming everything will go to term this time. My son is 22 months and will be 2 years in March. I was active on TTTC and my BMB, but I'm just now coming back to the bump for this pregnancy.

    Eta: oh yeah I forgot that I'm turning 35 before baby is born, so I'll probably be deemed high risk. I'm also at increased risk of previa due to compete previa with my last and a c-section, but we are assuming the best until we are told otherwise.
