spnobbe · August 2017

Hi, I'm a TTM I have a 3 year old dd and almost 2 year old ds. Due Date is April14th. Super excited but people think I'm crazy having 3 under the age of 3, maybe I am but I can't wait!!!

Uscdrea05 · August 2017

STM living in DC (yay?). My son is 18 months. I was not very involved in my BMB with him, but hoping to be more so here (since I'm now a seasoned pro-lolz). EDD 4/23. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

cards10 · August 2017

Well I expect to get almost zero things done at work today... because I got a BFP and I'll be bumpin

EDD is 4/25. I have a DS who is 19 mo old. MH doesn't know yet, eep. He was sleeping when I left for work so I want to think of a cute way to tell him today

Before DS, I had a MMC at 10w and a CP at 5w. So the PGAL brain is simultaneously making me nervous and sheltering me from getting tooooo excited.

I'm coming over from the TTGP board and I'm so excited to see a bunch of you here!

Sounds like there are a ton of fellow MI peeps here! Go blue!

hedgepig · August 2017

@cards10 Stoked to see you here! Congrats and welcome!

kmalls · August 2017

@cards10 congratulations!!!! I'm so happy you're here!!

stalkinghorse · August 2017

@cards10 and @fishsticks-n-custard I am thrilled and honestly kind of emotional to see you guys here. Congrats. You were both super nice to me as a newb in TTGP.

I'm 36 FTM with EDD of April 20th. *TW* since I had a miscarriage in May, I'm feeling really anxious and trying to keep myself from getting too excited for now *TW*

I live in Los Angeles, work in finance and ride horses. They are my practice babies since they also can't speak and seem to make a sport out of trying to injure or kill themselves.

I am so excited to be here and get to know everyone. Really hoping for an uneventful 9 months!

rshoshana · August 2017

Hi everyone! I am a second time mom with a baby who will be two and a half when this one is born! This was our second time doing ivf and thankfully got pregnant again! This little one's due date by the computer is April 20th. Our first blood beta test was 8.14 and have a second beta 8.17. We also live outside of Philly! I'm so excited to be pregnant again and used midwives and a birth doula that we had to restrain ourselves from calling the minute we found out!

Jyoung327 · August 2017

Hello all,

I just got my BFP yesteday and confirmation bloodwork today but have to go back in 2 days for repeat betas. Definitely pregnant but have a history of *TW* MMC at 12 weeks and ectopic rupture in 2015, lost a tube and required fertility treatments. I have one DS, 15 months. We had an appt with our RE Aug 1 and were supposed to start fertility treatments with my next cycle and got a natural BFP, so we are super excited to save the $$ there! Hoping for a healthy, sticky baby.

ETA: EDD= 4/25/18

Hello everyone! I'm a STM from New Mexico, I've been lurking the boards awhile and decided to finally introduce myself. I have a DD who just turned 2 and I'm expecting our second mid April. Here's to happy healthy pregnancies!

engrpatty · August 2017

Patty here,
BFP on 12th of August! EDD APRIL 19TH.

A second time Mum, Son was Born in March 2011, 3 weeks short of EDS of 11th April, due to severe preE. 7 years gap in view.

TTGP for 20months...
Had a failed ivf in Dec 2016, while waiting for 2 periods to repeat ivf, I conceived naturally in February, so I was in the Nov 2017 Babies board, unfortunately, I had a MMC in April with Twins.

On my own, I got desperate, since finding out I can conceive on my own, I went on Clomid in 50mg May, 50mg June, and 100mg July (wont advice self medication).
Yea.... am pregnant NOW!

By the way I am an Engineer by profession, I work in the Aviation Industry as an Air Traffic Safety Systems Officer.

I am a Christian, i believe in Prayers, I am positive this pregnancy will make it to term by God's grace. Do i have a witness in the house?

I live in Abuja, Nigeria

dreinhardt · August 2017

Hello!! I am a STM (my son is 25 months) and I got my BFP on Aug. 14 at just 8 dpo. I tested again today at 10 dpo and the lines are way darker. We currently live in Nebraska but are moving to Vermont in 8 weeks. Should be fun to move across the country in the trenches of nausea and exhaustion. But we will get through it! So excited to join the community with all of the other April 2018 mamas!

ekendall09 · August 2017

@dreinhardt I grew up in VT and you're moving at the best time of year there

stuck in a box. Hello!! You can change your screen name on the knot.com to something unique. It will be easier for us to tag and interact with you! Make sure you log out of TB and log back in for it to work. You will see in our symptoms thread that you have a lot of friends to suffer through with!! Welcome.

dreinhardt · August 2017

@ekendall09 I'm very excited to possibly see the color change at it's peak. And there was an article on here or What to Expect saying Vermont was in the top 5 state list for having a baby. That made me excited! Where did you grow up?

capricelili · August 2017

Hello! I'm Lili, 34yo from Houston Texas (currently, originally from the Northwest and plan to return someday). STM to 22 mo old DS. Just found out I was preggo a couple days ago. Planning on telling DH tonight. I'm feeling way more nervous this time around for some reason, ttc for 3 months so it happened way quicker than I expected. I believe I'm 4 weeks along with EDD of 4/23. I plan on lying to my doctor about my last period based on Day of conception. With my first they didn't take into account my long periods and their EDD was 2 weeks off what I had figured. Sure enough I was 2 weeks "past due" and they wanted to induce. Turns out the placenta was still super healthy, guess I was closer to the date than them when using last period. Sorry for the random tangent on this intro but I guess I know what I want a little better this second time around

mrs_massie · August 2017

@capricelili I'm going to lie about my last period too! Get in a week earlier if I do that.

doxiemomk · August 2017

Hi everyone!

FTM from Toronto, ON, tested positive first day late but just found the community board! As far as I can tell EDD is Apr 2.

I'm a teacher, so at least with the summer off I've been able to avoid nasty symptoms at work so far! Nervously awaiting first appointment, clinic waits until 10 weeks, but managed to sneak in a week early due to school!!

WillRunForWine21 · August 2017

Hi all! I waited until my second beta to come over here, but am officially convinced this is happening. Got my first BFP 8/14. This was my third attempt at IUI and we had been TTC 14 cycles, FTM and very excited also a proud TTGP grad. EDD from ovulation is 4/25/17. Looking forward to getting to know all of you!
