Introductions!

msjkhn3213 · April 2017

Hi all! Expecting baby #3 at the end of November. Married for 4 years and #3 will join a big brother and sister. Currently living in GA, but I'm originally from the north and would love to head back that way. Looking forward to spending these months with y'all!

angbaby83 · April 2017

Hi all! Im 7w5d and my first appointment is Friday. Excited to be here and terrified at the same time. This is not my first pregnancy but hoping for my first baby. I am also hoping things get better soon because the nausea is kicking my butt. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone.

kissthesky32 · April 2017

@angty1111 I'm also a May 15 mama, though I only lurked and occasionally posted in that BMB.

mamaqdubu · April 2017

Hello all! I know I'm pretty late to the party compared to all of you, but I finally have found some time to drop by! My name is Caitlin, and I'm currently 8 weeks, with my EDD of November 21. I currently have a little boy, Quinton, who was born August 2016 (yes, just 7 months ago!). I was decently active on the August 2016 board, and although I have a little one at home now I'll try to do the same here! So, nice to meet you all. See ya on the boards!

lady glittersparkles · April 2017

Hi All, I'll cautiously introduce myself. I'm a STM, due on 11/26, so 7w3d currently. DD is 5; we've had some secondary IF and two MCs since. We're excited and also very nervous to be PGAL. Had a dating ultrasound yesterday and saw a healthy embryo with a strong heartbeat. I'm also AMA and will be 37 when I deliver.

propschick05 · April 2017

Hi All! I'm a FTM. EDD is 11/23 (Thanksgiving Day!) My husband and I got married in October and this is a surprise baby. I turn 30 in June.

alparodi · April 2017

Hi!

This is my 4th pregnancy, STM, 37 years old. 10w+4d with an EDD 11/5. DD turns 2 this month. 2 MC before DD. Can't wait for 2nd trimester to get some all hours MS and fatigue relief, but super grateful to have our 2nd on the way!

I'm an agricultural scientist in the Raleigh, NC area and am happy to have a community of expecting mom's!

LeFemmeViolette · April 2017

Hi Everyone!

As you can see in my signature, it took quite a while to get to this point. This pregnancy is from a double frozen embryo transfer. Somehow, one of them split into two so for a little while there it was a triplet pregnancy. Then yesterday we had our 3rd ultrasound and only saw one heartbeat instead of the two we had seen previously. So now it's just a regular singleton pregnancy.

I'm just at about the 9 week mark. Hoping hoping hoping this sticks. My EDD is November 16th. Despite the tough news we got yesterday, the remaining baby had a helluva heartbeat and is measuring right on target. : )

JLStandfill · April 2017

Hello All! My name is Jayme (38). DH (37) and I have been together since 2002 & married since November 2013. Got my first BFP in August of 2014, and my first dose of miscarriage heartbreak at the end of September, when I went in for my first ultrasound and no heartbeat was found. We have been actively TTC since that loss. I got BFPs in July '15, March '16, and October '16, all ending in loss before 12 weeks. With the last one, I started bleeding at 11w6d, which to this point is the furthest I've been.

I have been tested for a few known culprits of consecutive first term losses, including APA, and a few others, all test have come back negative. I am high risk due to age, and type-II diabetes which is under good control (latest A1C 6.2%).

I got my 5th BFP March 2. All cross-able extremities, and my heart strings, are tightly crossed and praying that this is my sticky bean. My OB started me on Progesterone at 5 weeks and suggests I stay on it until 12 weeks. To this point, I have had pretty continuous nausea, can't seem to get enough sleep, I cry at just about everything that could even be remotely conceived as sappy, and occasional light cramps. I know cramps are normal to a point, but unless you have experienced loss, you don't know how terrifying every little twinge can be...it's torture...lol

My first ultrasound for this pregnancy measured right on track at 7w3d, giving us an estimated due date of November 10th...what an amazing birthday present that would be since my birthday's on the 13th. My next doctors visit is set for May 3 (13 weeks), and next US at 15-16 weeks. The waiting is TORTURE!

Peace, Love, and Lots of Luck to all the other Nov. '17 moms-to-be. May we all have a happy, healthy 9 months together!

lancomechica2 · April 2017

Hi!! Second timer here. EDD 11/21. Was a bumpie with my first and found a great tribe on here that is still together and our LO's turn 4 this summer! I'm 38 so a bit nervous with all the AMA talk and genetic stuff but hopefully all goes well!

NYTino24 · April 2017

Welcome @JLStandfill! I hope you have a sticky baby and join us on the PGAL Weekly check-in. If you read the "read this first" post, we don't use the term BD because it can be offensive and triggering to mamas who have had to cremate their babies. Can you please take it out of your intro post? Thanks!

Bonnie Sue · April 2017

Hi! My edd is 11/24, the day after thanksgiving. This will be my 5th child, but 3rd pregnancy. Our first two boys we adopted from foster care, and then we have a little girl who is bio. Last year we miscarried our other little girl at 16 weeks. Exactly a year after miscarrying I conceived this little turkey. Needless to say, I'm hesitantly excited about this pregnancy. I finally got an appt yesterday where I was able to hear a strong healthy heartbeat and see our little one. It was such a sigh of relief.

I have a history of infertility due to PCOS/innovulation, and I also have low progesterone and MTHFR, which always makes my pregnancies a little more hectic in the beginning. This time around in having severe nausea and just started taking some mess for it. Hopefully I'll be less useless soon.

NYTino24 · April 2017

Welcome @Bonnie Sue! We can't tag you with the space in your name. You can fix it on The Knot website. I hope this rainbow baby takes it easy on you!

eunhasong · April 2017

Hi all!
I'm EunHa, 28 y.o. living in Dallas, TX area. I work as a home health nurse here. I'm 10 weeks and first time mom so lots of excitement

. Due date is around Nov. 6th. Glad to meet you all

eunhasong · April 2017

Awesome I was born and raised in Korea! I hope all the different street foods and all doesn't bother you much. I hope the move goes smoothly

sunflower4444 · April 2017

@MissMonroe11 yay! A fellow Austinite

Knottie21544998 · April 2017

Hi November 2017 Moms! I am late to introduce myself here but have been following along a bit and just observing how this works.
I'm a FTM, EDD 11/5!

SoWhatIrun · April 2017

Hi everyone! FTM at the ripe old age of 43! EDD 11/14/17. Was told a long time ago that I couldn't have kids without medical intervention, but I guess I showed them! Such a shock and a blessing and my head is still spinning that this happened. Looking forward to sharing this journey with you!

hbral12 · April 2017

Hi everyone! I'm a FTM and I am currently 8 weeks according to the ultrasound. EDD 11/26/17. I am 19 and live in OK with my fiance. Glad to be a part of the group.

kyethra · April 2017

Hi All. My due date is Nov. 16th. We transfered a 5 day blast on februrary 28th, so know the due date well. I have a 5 year old, and he has disabilities so is developmentally a little younger. We are over the moon, after 2 years of failed ivf cycles we went with an egg donor. I have severe diminished ovarian reserve, had trouble getting my son in my 20s. I am already perimenopausal and just turned 34 last week! I also had my 2nd great ultrasound! We used pgs so are 95% sure it is a girl. I had HELLP syndrome with my son, but hope not to get preeclampsia this time or at least last longer. My son was a C section at 35 weeks. One thing that amazed me is how without gaining a pound it has been two weeks since my jeans buttoned. I teach middle school and last week my students figured it out!

talia14 · April 2017

Hi all, first pregnancy ended in MC last year, had a few struggles but had our ultrasound Thursday and extremely happy and hopeful. EDD is Nov 14

sushisuzi · April 2017

Hi everyone I'm suzi..im a sahm of a nine year old four year old.three year old and seven months..i did not expect to be carrying another bundle of joy and I'm not going to lie in very nervous on how I'm going to handle this all with my husband ..but I figure I'll be ok

kyethra · April 2017

I had a lapband 9 years ago. Still want to lose another 40 or 30 eventually, but am currently down 90 pounds from my high point. With my son, I had too much restriction around 20 weeks. So they unfilled my band completely! Terrible plan! I gained 80! But I lost it all and then 10 more, so I wouldn't stress too much. This time my adjustment will be smaller, but I learned to freak out too much and just do my best.

am1117 · April 2017

Hi all! I wanted to officially introduce myself here, after mainly lurking and enjoying this site for the past couple weeks. I am a FTM, due 11/28 (?)... not certain yet of the date, and we don't have our first appt until next week! I am just short of 8 weeks along, and I cannot wait to finally see my doctor/hear a heartbeat/get more details! I found out I was pregnant a few days early (I am inpatient and couldn't wait for a missed period to test). It has been about 4 weeks since then, and I've mainly felt good- some cramping, a little fatigue, and nausea here and there. Overall I'm just so happy and so glad to have this site! Our month club seems to be filled with great people.

sarahdxoxoxo · April 2017

Hi all!

Glad to finally be able to interact on here after lurking the last few days

I'm Sarah. 28 years old and live in the San Francisco Bay Area. We recently got engaged on Christmas Eve and were planning on waiting another 2 years before trying but *!surprise!*

This is our first baby (though we have 2 fur babies at home). I had an extra test at the house from our last scare and thought I'd take it for peace of mind since we had just booked our wedding venue. Crazy to think that I already love this little peanut that I didn't even know I was ready for.

Symptoms: morning (all day) nausea, tender boobs, having to pee all the time, crazy dreams and heightened sense of smell.

Congratulations to all of you other Mama's. I'm really grateful to read about everyone else's experiences -- it's helped settle my nerves and I'm getting so excited!

destinyd8 · April 2017

Trying to post an intro but it only posts my first line. I'll keep it short then lol. I'm at FTM and my EDD is November 15th!

QTAMum3 · April 2017

@caitlinj187 my oldest sons name is Quinton!

bklynchica · April 2017

@destinyd8 The bump does this annoying thing where if you use an emoji from your phone rather than from their drop-down box, it cuts off the post. Maybe that's what's going wrong?

tiptopdragon · April 2017

Hi everyone!

My name is Jordan, I'm pregnant with my first baby (very exciting)! I'm 23 years old, living in Australia. My baby is due on 21st of November, so currently I'm 9w2d.

I've been having the WORST morning sickness but it's dying down now which I'm so glad about.

My boyfriend has been the best support system after telling him the exciting news. The baby wasn't planned but we're still obviously so happy that he/she is coming!!

Jen3340 · April 2017

Hi all!!
This is my 4th pregnancy and my EDD is Nov 24. My other three children ages (DD17,DD16,DS10) are from a previous marriage and this one is my fiance first one. We are so excited, but I'm a little nervous because it's been ten and a half years since my last child. But I have faith everything will be fine.

I look forward to going thru this wonderful journey with all of you. Wishing you all a happy and healthy nine months.

AmberG34 · April 2017

Hello everyone! My EDD is Nov 2. We were shocked to say the least. lol. We have a 2.5 year son and hoping to bring home a healthy little sibling for him.

I work part time and my fiance works full time once this kid comes I'll more than likely become a SAHM or continue to work the bare minimum. Excited to be on this journey with you all.

ss145 · April 2017

Hey ladies! Just realised that I've been posting for a few weeks, but have never posted in here.

This will be my first baby- im very lucky to have had a positive conception journey but I still find myself worried/anxious for all the things that can go wrong. I'm betting this is a normal part of it all? Ahaha.

Im so excited though and baby is due Nov 20th! Hoping for a girl

:)

loving having in this supportive forum , thanks to all of you! X

deemariec · April 2017

Hi everyone, I'm new to all this so sorry if I do something wrong. This is my first baby and I've been scared and worried since I found out. It didn't seem real aside from the constant vomiting till yesterday when me and my husband got to hear our baby's heart beat. I'm 12weeks along today and my due date is 11/03/17. It's been weird seeing my husband be all excited when I just didn't feel that way, I'm starting to feel that way know but I think I hurt him by not being excited. I hope everything goes well but I'm still really worried. Also congrats to all of you! Weter this is your 1st or your 8th your all gonna do great!

cwalker042 · April 2017

Hi! I've been a lurker for about a month. I'm hesitantly introducing myself. This is my 4th pregnancy. I have a 12 yo son and a 22 month old son. I had a MC in October 2016 at around 7 1/2 weeks. I'll be 9 weeks tomorrow. EDD 11/25/17. I live in the northeast. Praying for a health 31 more weeks!

chartersl · April 2017

Hi everyone. I'm late in joining but just wanted to have my first OB appointment before I jumped in. I'm a STM to a 3 year old fiery red headed girl and we live in NY. Everything went great with first pregnancy so figured I'd hold off on going in until around 10-11 weeks with this one. EDD is Nov. 13th. Well, went in today and found out that it's going to be twins! We are in shock and still processing but I'm happy to be here and see that there are quite a few other moms out there with multiples.

FigTreeMama · April 2017

Hi everyone! I'm a FTM, 10 weeks along (EDD 11/17)! DH and I are 36, we got married in September and we are both excited and terrified to be going on this journey. We live in Philadelphia.

misskay913 · April 2017

Good Afternoon Everyone!

I'm a STM due 11/11! Baby #1 is just 10 months old. The Bump saved me from going crazy the first time around, so I can't wait to get to know everyone sharing this experience
