Hi! We are pregnant with number 2! Our first is a boy and he will be two in June. We are so excited to give him a little brother or sister! We have also had MC in the past, so while we are joyful we are also very aware that this could be temporary. We are trying to be happy for as long as we have this baby.
Hi all! I'm not a fan of abbreviations so I'm sorry if that's mandatory to post. The hubs and I found out two weeks ago we were pregnant after trying for almost a year. A blessing for sure! We just moved to Auburn, AL exactly a year ago today. I work full time and plan to continue to work to keep my sanity but if something changes our plan then it will be fine as well. We are due 11/13 and we are slightly terrified that we will have twins as they are on both sides of our family and I was on medicine.
Hi, I am pregnant with number 3. I have two boys currently ages 3.5 and 1.5. I'm excited about this pregnancy and terrified at the same time. I'm not sure we're ready to be out numbered. I am due 11/22, so I've got plenty of time to get used to the idea.
Hi I am pregnant with number 2. I have a 3.5 year old girl and according to LMP will be due 11/11/17. Just scheduled my first appointment for 4/19. From western pa.
@bcashaw How exciting for you! I currently have the same EDD (though my first appt tomorrow may change that) and yay for foster parents! I'm 27 and DH and I had been trying for almost two years. Also we honeymooned in PEI. Your country (or at least the part of it I've seen) is gorgeous! We may have some differences, but you are certainly more than welcome here and I'd love to get to hear about some of the differences we experience!

Hi, ladies! We found out last Wednesday that we're expecting #3. Our son is 4.5 and our daughter just turned 1. I was on the mini-pill and hadn't missed a single day, so I was quite shocked when I saw the test. We are still adjusting to the news, but are excited for this new, unexpected adventure. My first appointment isn't until mid-April, but according to my calculations, our EDD is Nov 19. Both of my other babies came at 37 weeks, so it's quite possible this one could be here very early November. Nice to meet you all! I look forward to learning more about each of you!
Hello all! AF was supposed to come Feb. 25th and I was having a lot of cramping so I was sure AF was going to arrive. That night when I realized that I had not started I thought that something was up, I took a pregnancy test and....BFP, much to our surprise. My fiancé and I are getting married April 7th and a baby was not in our plans, but now that it has happened we are going with the flow! EDD is Nov. 5th. My First appointment is this Wednesday and I am very excited. We decided to go with a midwife and she is a very close family friend and so I feel very relaxed. Hospitals scare me. I am happy I stumbled upon this website, it gives me my only little community to talk to about this crazy beautiful miracle that is happening inside my body. Cannot wait to share and grow with you ladies!
Update: MC @ 8 weeks, will try for another time! Good luck all with your pregnancies! Wish you all the best.
Hi all! Just confirmed our November arrival. I'm 38 and this is my first pregnancy. We had a scare last week with some issues but our ultra-sound on Saturday confirmed everything is ok. Thank God!! I was so worried. So thankful for groups like this to discuss and share.
We had two chemical pregnancies over the last year and a half of TTC. I was so afraid that the u/s today would show no heartbeat or ectopic (I'm a doom and gloom googler). Instead, we heard two heartbeats. This is simultaneously exciting and amazing, and a whole new batch of terrible things to worry about.
@bklynchica how exciting!!! Congratulations! I know how easy it is to be discouraged with history but this is your time to shine! Enjoy it!

I'm a STM. DS is almost 19 months. *****TW***** we had a miscarriage in August 2016 and have been TTC since. Heart stopped beating at 10weeks. ****end of TW*****
We are due 11/11 according to my calculations. DH is 42 and I will be 42 in May. So I have a lot of anxiety given the previous loss and my age. I'm trying to take things one day at a time. Had betas and they are looking good. I go for a scan next Friday so FX everything looks good.
Hey, guys! I just got my BFP last night and then again this morning. My doctor wants me to go in and take a test at her office before we schedule my first prenatal appointment. After a night of horrible sleep thanks to my racing mind, the shock of it all has finally worn off. The first test I took was actually a week ago, but that one was negative. I honestly did not expect a positive result when I took it last night. I've been irregular pretty much since my period came back, and I figured I'd just take it in case. I'd guess that my due date is about November 20th. We'll see what the doctor says when I go in.
DD's first birthday was last Friday, and we were not expecting to give her another sibling so soon. We were hoping for a 3-4 year age gap, but you ladies know how those plans work out, lol. I'm admittedly kind of nervous about having two in diapers, but I have friends and a cousin that have done it that I can ask for advice, thankfully. I've been a SAHM since I was 5 months pregnant during my first when I got laid off, and I don't see that changing much now. I do work from home as a graphic artist and videographer (among other things).
Symptoms: Fatigue. I just blamed it on being a SAHM to an increasingly mobile baby. Sore breasts and nipples, which I just blamed on my breastfeeding baby who has a tendency lately to pinch the skin and roll it between her fingers as she nurses (which HURTS btw). I've definitely had lightheadness. It was to the point that I was getting concerned that I had developed hypoglycemia and was planning on getting it checked out next time I went to my doctor. I'll definitely be mentioning that to my OBGYN just to make sure we both getting enough nutrients. I've noticed that coffee tastes a bit different to me, but I haven't really had any food cravings or aversions other than that. I've also noticed an increase in acne lately.
Hello all! I just got confirmed at the doctor today! I'm a FTM(trying to get caught up on all the abbreviations) due 11/10. I'm very new to this kind of thing but I'm excited to be here!!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
Hey ladies! Third time Mom here! Very excited after trying the past 2 months. EDD is November 21. Oldest daughter just turned 11 last month and youngest daughter turns 2 next week.
Hi all! I am a FTM. I found out on March 10th that we were expecting after two positive at home tests. I am currently only 5 weeks and 4 days along. EDD is Nov 17th. I'm from IL but living in Austria. I am excited, but a bit worried about having a miscarriage. I don't know why I am worrying so much. I'm having some period like cramps every day now for 2 weeks (since before I found out) and that is stressing me out a lot.
Anyway, fingers crossed for all of us that we have healthy pregnancies!
Hi all! I can't believe I am actually posting here. My DH and I haven't been preventing for a year and have been actively trying for 4 months now. This will be our third, and we Andre so excited. We have two DS that are 7 and 5. I will be 35 when this little one joins us. Praying for a healthy pregnancy! Due Date of 11-27.
Hi! I'm from the DC area, and I'm pregnant with my first after struggling with unexplained infertility for the past year and a half. I'm absolutely over the moon and am just hoping everything continues to go well. My due date is 11/24.
Howdy folks. FTM here. I'm 31 and my wife just turned 32. We've been together 10 years, domestically partnered for 8, and married for 5! Feels pretty cool to be here--I never assumed kids or pregnancy would be a part of my life, but I'm thrilled to be on this path. We first saw the RE in October, picked out some sperm, and started IUI in January. This was my third cycle.
My due date is 11/26. So far I've had cramping and a little nausea. Oh and my breasts hurt even worse than they do preAF, which is saying something!
Nice to meet you all! It's all ready been very helpful to be able to read what everyone goes through.
Greetings from the DC metro area. My EDD is Nov. 12. DS was born 12-2011 via Clomid etc w/IUI I am 34 and DH is 36. We are very fortunate to have gotten pregnant naturally
Hi all! My EDD is Thanksgiving day! I have an almost 11 year old daughter. We went off BC last year for one last try at having another (I'm 38). Nothing happened. Went to my Dr on Friday to go back on BC since we thought it wasn't meant to be and yep, I'm pregnant! Very excited....and tired.
Hello! I am so excited to join on here! I'm a FTM and we just got our BFP a few days ago My EDD is 11/28 for now! We are so excited and nervous. Not feeling many symptoms so far! Looking forward to being a part of this group.
Am I doing this right? My husband and I recently found out we're pregnant. We're both first time parents. We've been married 7 years, but together for 14 years. I'll be 32 y/o when baby arrives. The EDD is 11/21, which also happens to be husband's 33rd birthday. He's already planning for lame dad jokes about the best birthday present ever.
Hi everyone!! I'm happy to say that I am 5 weeks and 1 day pregnant today! My due date is November 20th! I am a mother to 3 DS's and a step mom to a DS and a DD, so total, this will be our 6th living child. I also have 2 angels in heaven from miscarriages, making 2 of my DS's my rainbow babies! ❤ one of my DS's was full term with no complications, one of my DS's was premature, and the last one was full term with the help of progesterone injections. I'm really hoping this will be an uneventful pregnancy!!! Wishing everyone the happiest of pregnancies!
Hi, excited but nervous to be joining! I am 29 and DH is 32. We have a 17 month old daughter. Just confirmed with a digital that we are expecting again! Not sure about the due date because we had a miscarriage early Feb and had no cycle before this BFP. By guessing when I ovulated I think it will be around Nov 24th but not sure at all. Just very very happy at the moment but also scared. Praying for a healthy pregnancy for ourselves and all you ladies!
Little bit different situation but never the less super excited. I'm a 43yo SMH of 3 teenagers. 18,15 &13. The oldest graduates this June!! I lost their dad in 2011 in Afghanistan. Remarried an amazing man but he has no kids and I had to undergo a full hysterectomy in 2007. So we decided to go through a surrogate. We are now expecting 2 boys.... yes TWINS.....EDD Nov. 8. We couldn't be happier. This will be all new to me not being the pregnant one but I can't wait to read everybody's journey. Pregnancy and motherhood is definitely a true blessing.
Hey November Mommas! I had a super faint like a little over two weeks ago, confirmed it with a digital and was shocked! We have a 3.5yo who we tried for for three years, having one loss before him. Only took three months this time! Thrilled to be here. Praying for a healthy baby. Ultrasound in two weeks. OB in early May. Based on my LMP my EDD is Nov 16.
Have made lifelong friends in my BMB from our son, hoping to build more relationships!
