    Congrats!! It's amazing how everything slowly falls into place! Mine will be 9, 7, 5, 3, and 2 when this is born and as overwhelming as it can be at times have so many little ones, it's super fun! ❤️

    Edit: I was trying to reply to @cgb_2017 but have no clue what I'm doing apparently! Lol

  • Hi everyone! 

    I'm another IF mom--I was part of the N14 group before the giant implosion here, and decided to come back and try it out again. 

    I have a 2.5 year old son who I conceived through Femara/timed intercourse after one miscarriage, and just got my + this time around on my fourth Femara cycle with an IUI that we only decided to do because my husband was out of town! This was my last cycle before moving to IVF--I started the process and had a mock transfer scheduled and everything. Then I found out I was pregnant! EDD is 2/8. I will have my first u/s on 6/23 so I'm looking forward to just seeing this dang baby. It's agonizing!

    I work full time at a university as a librarian & live in the Ann Arbor, MI area. Excited to get to know you all! 


  • Hi fellow mommas and mommas to be!!! My name is Alexis, I received my BFP a few days ago, confirmed today at doctor! EDD is 2/13/18. I have a daughter who will be 3 at the end of June. Feeling some minor pulls and aches and of course the sore sore boobies. Wishing everyone here sticky babies and can't wait to laugh and cry together on this journey!!
    Tied the knot: 3.2.2012    BFP: 10.16.2013    Expecting first baby!!: 6.25.14

  • Hi, everyone! I'm Aeona. I just tested today because I had a feeling, and my intuition is often right. We thought we were done, so the BFP is definitely a surprise. I think I'm around 10 dpo. If it's a sticky bean, this will be my sixth child and my husband's second. I had four children with my first husband. My older kids will be 13, 11, would-be 9, 8, and 3 when this baby is born.

    @aeonlux, this is my 6th also! Congratulations!! A surprise for us as well!

  • @starla - congrats! I am so happy to see you over here! I float between this board and Jan 18 since I am due 1/31. TW - My first pregnancy ended in a MMC at 15 weeks, and it is really hard to not let that overshadow a new pregnancy. Just remember that each one is different, you will have good days and bad and celebrate all your milestones! Congrats again!

  • Hi everyone! Congrats on your BFPs! I am a STM. My daughter is 14 months old. We have had quite the journey to get here and are hoping that this little nugget completes our family. I got my BFP on May 31st. My due date is February 8. We have an ultrasound scheduled for June 26th. We told my parents last night because I'm pretty sure my mother has a direct channel to God and I am looking for all the prayers I can get. Otherwise we are not telling anyone until we are out of the first trimester. I think I am currently experiencing my first craving of this pregnancy, because Cheez-Its OMG...I can't get enough...seriously I just ran out and may have to leave work to go get some more. Anyway, H+H 9 months to you all!

  • Hi everyone! I'm Jenelle, FTM due Feb. 1. I had a MC at 7 weeks in 2015 and I'm praying this is my rainbow baby. Got my BFP May 27, the day before hubby's birthday and my first appointment is the 26th hoping to see a heartbeat!
  • @mpp06 You're not alone trying to figure out how to use this! Lol! I can't seem to get the reply button to work either!

  • Wow, I haven't done this in awhile. I got my BFP on Monday. I have two wild boys ages 8 and 5 and we thought we were done. Both were c sections and I had cholestasis (ICP) with both.  My youngest is about to enter kindergarten and then this unexpected surprise happened so I'm still wrapping my head around this. I'm old, 38, live in a Texas, and my first appt will be on the 21st. Wishing you all a happy and healthy 9 months!

    @cgb_2017, still working on better patience! I've found it's actually easier with each one. They are all built in best friends and my oldest few are (willing) helpers! ❤️
  • Hello! I'm a STM-- DD is ~2.5 and may well have to share her birthday with baby #2. EDD is 2/14 based on both LMP and DPO, but I have yet to talk to the Dr. Got the BFP on Tuesday during a road trip, 13 DPO. I'm a little nervous about this one... my first pregnancy and birth was pretty near ideal, but we've recently moved to a new state and the Dr. and hospital are both unknown entities to me. 

    Any other runners out there planning to continue as long as medically (and bodily ;)) possible? I didn't run through my first pregnancy, but this time around I'm hoping to keep it up as long as I feel able (and barring any medical conditions).

  • Hi everyone! Glad to be back again...I am a STM, have one DS - Jett 18 mos.  This is my wife and my second reciprocal IVF cycle. (Her embryo, my uterus).  We already know this will be a boy, which is super exciting knowing our son will have a baby bro! Got our BFP on the 8th, now waiting for serial betas...fingers crossed for a sticky baby!  EDD should be Valentine's Day.  I am a Certified Nurse Midwife in San Antonio, Texas.  I love my job and getting to help mamas and babies everyday all day! Had an all natural birth with DS, planning on a home birth this time around.  Congrats and good luck to all of you!
    We are planning on a home birth potentially this time around as well. Excited to talk about it/plan it as we progress in our pregnancies

  • Hello! I have an estimated due date of Feb 3, but will have that confirmed later this month.  This baby was definitely a surprise as I'm still bf my second( we were using other bc methods but apparently God had other plans, so here we go again), so this will be my third child. I just found out yesterday, so I'm still adjusting to the idea of having 2 under 2, but excited none-the-less.

    Anywho I hope to be more active on this board than my last. So hello and I look forward to getting to know everyone.

    Awesome! I planned homebirths with my last three, and hope to plan another homebirth this time should things progress smoothly.

  • Hi mamas! 
    I'm 36 and got my BFP last week and going for my second blood test tomorrow - dr wants to make sure levels are going up. It's been a loooooooooong rough and sad road to get here, but I am so happy to be back! We have a DS who is 3. I'm proceeding cautiously because it's so early but definitely enjoying every moment worth celebrating! Great to meet all of you.

    @sabriel1 thats awesome!  We have a consultation with our midwife this week.  I'm totally sold, but my wife needs a little more "convincing." We practically had a home birth with DS.  Labored at home till I was 7cm, and got to the hospital just in time to deliver.  So I told her it was so much more convenient to just stay put this time :) 
  • @Starla Its more of a play on my name.
  • Hi ladies! I'm 31 and DH is 30. I'm cautiously joining you all. I just got my BFP yesterday on 6/10 which would make us due February 16.

    I'm a little nervous because we had a loss back in October about a week after we had our BFP, so I'm going in tomorrow to have my bloodwork done and make sure I don't need any extra supplements to stay pregnant.

    My husband and I have a daughter who will be 3 in September.

    Hope we all have a happy and healthy 9 months! 





  • Hey guys!  I am new to this, so excuse my lack of acronyms.  I am 28, hubby is 29, we live outside of DC, and we are due at the very beginning of February (about 6 weeks along at this point).  I am a FTM, so I an terrified by every cramp, etc...  I look forward to hearing all of your experiences!
