I don’t think I ever actually came back to this thread to do an intro!
This is our second pregnancy, we have a two year old wild and crazy boy. I’m a working mom in the health care field and live in Canada.
Due date by my calendar will be Sept 5 but no appointment until beginning of Feb so we’ll see for sure then!
We’ll be Team Green again this time.
Wishing everyone a healthy and happy pregnancy!

Hey Ladies!!! I’m a FTM living in NC. I am currently 6 weeks pregnant. This is my first time on Bump so I’m new to all this. I got my BFP on Christmas Day and was able to surprise DH that morning!! My EDD is around 8/31-9/1so I was unsure which board to post on but decided to do September because y’all are closer to my timeline.

TW: I had a CP back in November so I don’t have a LMP to date this pregnancy. I am nervous because our doctor told us to wait a month before trying due to increase risk of miscarriage and this one wasn’t exactly planned. We are trying to hope for the best but I’ve been nervous and I’m anxiously awaiting our first ultrasound on 1/18. END TW

Congratulations to everyone and I am excited to hopefully get to know everyone better!!!

amanduhtm · January 2018

scres1013 · January 2018

Hey Ladies! Im a STM with a 2.5 year old girl. My husband and I have been married for 4.5 years and we're excited for baby#2. My EDD is Sept 7 according to my LMP but im pretty sure i ovulated on Dec 20 which would put the DD more around Sept 12. My appt isnnt until Jan 24th so we'll see. Im a working mom in the entertainment/theatre industry, but i'm strongly considering becoming a SAHM once #2 arrives. Congrats to all the mamas!!

chelletn · January 2018

@carolina422 TW - my very first pregnancy was a CP. I got pregnant the next month without a cycle just like you. I had a healthy pregnancy and now a healthy almost 5 year old little girl. Hopefully that will make you feel a little more at ease. I understand that nervousness! End TW

Good morning!

I'm a STM from North Carolina, but this is my first time participating on TB. My DH and I have been married almost 6.5 years. Our DS was born in May, 2014, and he really wants a sibling! EDD for this baby is September 14 per LMP. There's a good chance that we conceived on my birthday - Dec. 20. BFP was January 6.

I'll be calling my OBGYN this week to schedule my first appointment, but it probably won't be for a while. Last time, my OBGYN wouldn't schedule a first appointment until 12 weeks. US should be at 20 weeks.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone over the next 9 months! Wishing you all a healthy, uncomplicated pregnancy.

zuzu43 · January 2018

Hi and congratulations everyone!!

I am a FTM from New Jersey. Based on my ovulation date, I should be due on 9/13. Coincidentally, I believe we conceived on our 8th year dating anniversary (married for 4.5 years). We decided to start trying in November, and we found out on New Years Eve that we were pregnant. We are so excited it happened so quickly, but I am also so ridiculously anxious to get past the high-risk period.

I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and to having a support group for my first pregnancy!

yogapants247 · January 2018

Hi all! Excited to finally be able to post! I am a STM - have a 17mo who is just the best little one I ever could've hoped for. H & I decided a while ago that we'd start TTC #2 in December so that our LO would be at least 2 when the next hopefully comes along. I was SO shocked to see a positive test at 10DPO. I hate knowing so early, and am crazy anxious that it won't stick, but I'm trying to remain calm and positive. EDD should be 9/19. Hoping we all have healthy and happy 9 months ahead of us!

embri12 · January 2018

Hi guys!

I’m Melanie. I was on the August board but just had an ultrasound and my new EDD is 9/4! I have a 2.5 yo and am dealing with much worse nausea this time around (though somehow less vomiting?)

hjmorgan-2 · January 2018

hjmorgan-2 said:

I'm going to lurk here a bit. According to my LMP I would be due mid/late August. But base off when I'm pretty sure I ovulated, DTD, and tge fact that I got a BFN when my period was two days late, pretty sure I'll be due early September. We'll see once I have my US.

So hi! I'm Brittany, I have an 11 month old son and his is my second time on TB.

And I got pregnant adter only having ONE PP period....

My re-introduction. My US showed I am 6W3D, which would put my EDD on September 2nd, we have a follow up appointment in a couple weeks.

Hello September mamas! My birthday is in September also!

smsaulino · January 2018

@hjmorgan-2 we're twinsies... lol I'm also 6w, 3d with an EDD of 9/2

Knottie88307735 · January 2018

I'm a 36 year old working mom, due with baby #3 on 9-15.

My older two boys will turn 13 & 8 within apx. 90 days of this birth. Hubby stays home with them.

laurainoakland · January 2018

Hi there! I'm a 38 year old STM with a 13 y.o. son. This is my first pregnancy with my new partner (and will be his first time becoming a dad). Estimated due date is Sept 8th. I work for a non profit group to protect the environment. My partner is back in school (hoping to finish in fall!). Excited to connect with other people who are also expecting- its basically all I can think about right now.

Sprinkles5413 · January 2018

Hi ladies!! I’m a 34 year old STM from Pittsburgh PA. I have a DD that is 2. I got a BFP test today and a week and a half late with an EDD of Sep 9. It will probably be earlier because I will be a cesarean again. I just started a new job last week and so worried they are going to think I didn’t disclose my pregnancy! My moms group from my daughter is still amazing and going strong. I look forward to getting to know all of you fine mamas!!!

hopefulforbabyo · January 2018

Hi everyone! Just found out 2 days ago I am pregnant with #3!! I have two daughters 11 & 7 from a previous relationship but am so excited to experience this all again! Excited to get to know everyone

ropemaker · January 2018

Hi! Six weeks exactly today. First pregnancy. Suspected I was pregnant around Christmas but couldn't test until new years day. So far estimate due date is sept 5th!

shouse11 · January 2018

@ropemaker your EDD is my birthday

sending lots of good vibes your way!

niki1128 · January 2018

Hi Ladies! My name is Niki, I live in Atlanta and I have a 5 year old daughter. Looks like I'm joining your group! No EDD yet and waiting to schedule my confirmation appointment. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

starswilldiex2829 · January 2018

Hello everyone,
My name is Holly and I'm a 34 year old female mom from the Poconos region of PA. We started TTC last month the day before my 34th birthday and I thought it would take a lot longer as I have a few health issues that will be making this a high risk pregnancy (including but not only just 1 ovary/tube), absent seizure disorder, gastric bypass with a history of strictures which is where my stomach almost closes and I constantly throw up, and chronic back pain with nerve damage) so I will be seeing the obgyn on 1/24 so they can refer me to high risk obgyn. I already met with them about a year and half and have gone off some of my stronger drugs but I'm still on some pretty strong stuff unfortunately. Luckily with the gastric bypass my body does not asorb medication and so I am hoping the baby does not get most of it. I am also drinking a lot more protein shakes. I am 3 weeks 2 days today. Congratulations to all the September Mamas. Oh, also my husband's Birthday is 9/28 and the pregnancy calculator I used said I am due 9/25 which is neat! Sorry for rambling but I think this is the happiest I have been since my wedding day lol.

hollowway · January 2018

Hello ladies! I just got My BFP today! I am due Sept 21th with #3. I have a 4yo DD and a 1yo DS. I am 27 and a photographer and DF is 36 and is a Deputy Marshall. We live in Maine.

sarahmsoda · January 2018

Hey ladies! I am a STM with an almost 1 year old son. This baby was a huge surprise as I have PCOS and DH has some fertility issues so we never dreamed it would happen so fast this time! DS took 2 years to conceive.

I got my BFP on New Years Day and had my first ultrasound today. They had do an internal one because I am still early and they believe I am around 5 weeks 2 days making my due date around Sept 11.

I am from Canada and I provide live in support to 5 men with mental health issues (they live with us in our family home!). It can be challenging to be there for so many people every day all day and I can only imagine how tougher it will get with 2 little ones under 2! Luckily DH will get to take paternity leave so that will be nice.

So excited to be here!

shouse11 · January 2018

@starswilldiexxx I have seizures as well and remained on my meds. My last pregnancy went smoothly and I have a healthy + smart 2 year old. Send all the good vibes your way!

@mammabear1221 Im a photographer as well! Do you have a website? I love connecting and being inspired by others in my field!

ellbeedee · January 2018

Hi there! I got my positive test yesterday and based on my LMP my due date is 9/14. I have 2 DD's ages 4 and 6. I own a dog grooming salon and my husband is military. I will have a complicated pregnancy as I have a blood disorder and expect baby 5 weeks early with complications, but praying for the best and blessed to be here!!

pourmeanothermocktail · January 2018

@ellbeedee My son is a 35 weeker. After the first couple of weeks while his lungs matured, he's been super healthy, grew well, and has had to lasting issues at all. Happy healthy energetic toddler.

mamakate1616 · January 2018

Hi! Hopeful STM here, my 2 year old daughter and I just celebrated our 30th/2nd birthdays on the 5th and 6th.

Have been trying since she was about 4months old (granted BFing kept my cycle away until she was 13months) because we wanted siblings close in age. That hasn’t happened but fortunately her brood of cousins are all roughly 10months apart and this babe will follow that pattern too!
*TW we had a MC before DD was born and another in July so I am anxiously awaiting follow up beta levels today & US on the 31st. EDD is 9/10 and I’ll pribably have a repeat cesarean so ~9/3.
Cheers to a happy & healthy 9 months ahead!

prpl11butterfly · January 2018

Hi everyone! Just found out this morning DH and I are expecting our 2nd! Looks like I'm due around Sept 18th. We've been raising our 9yo niece for 6.5 years and have a 2.5yo son. Really excited to be adding to our little family unit. We've been TTC for about 5 months and made this little bundle on Christmas day lol.

nessytessy · January 2018

Hey y’all!!
I’m a STM with a 2 year old and had a suspicion about this pregnancy around Christmas. Based on my LMP I thought I was due in August so I lurked around that board the past few weeks. Had my dating scan today and it pushed me back to EDD of September 8th. I enjoy being apart of this community and learned so much as a FTM on the November 2015 board. I am looking forward to getting to know you ladies and wishing you all happy/healthy pregnancies!

codesoncodes · January 2018

Hey y’all! I’m a 28 year old mom of two from Florida. I have an almost 5 year old DS and my DD will be 2 in March. I’m excited to have a baby later in today he’s year to help with the stress of presents and parties not bing close together but NOT looking forward to being pregnant in the summer heat!

I posted on TB with both pregnancies and am still close without my first BMB on fb. It’s so nice to have other moms to relate to and commiserate with.

I gained about 50 lbs with both kids and my last was 9 lb 3 oz at 38 weeks so im going to take run to stay active and eat better this time around!

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

hollowway · January 2018

@shouse11 I do, I just started to officially build my portfolio! I am focusing mainly on equine portraits (LOVE horses) but am tipping my toes in newborns (so excited to do my own babe!) and children/families.

kmath21 · January 2018

Hi All!

I am expecting my 3rd (EDD Sept 7th) and have 11 & 7 yo daughters from a former relationship. My recent ex has 2 children aged 4 & 2. We were trying to remain friends after our breakup but I haven’t heard much from him since I broke the news. He also lives 2.5 hours away and in another country so it’s messy. A bit overwhelmed at the moment but looking forward to the support and friendships that can be made here!!

mdexter11 · January 2018

Hey everyone!
I am a 36 year old STM. DD is 3. I got a very faint BFP at the beginning of the week and plan to test again in the morning. AF was due today and I've been having pregnancy symptoms for awhile now. Based on LMP, I am due 9/18. Very excited to be a part of this community.

Mandamay1414 · January 2018

Hi all! I'm a 28 yo STM with an 18 month old daughter. I mostly lurked on the July '16 board, but hopefully I'll have a bit more time to participate this time around. I work part time as a pharmacist in the Pittsburgh area. Go Steelers! This BFP was a bit of a surprise, but I was feeling suspicious earlier this week when I had some mild spotting that was too early to be AF. I decided to test tonight before drinking anymore wine, lol. EDD 9/21.

jessicadawnthomedossantos · January 2018

Hi, I'm Jessica , I'm from Ottawa . I'm 6 weeks 2 days , doctor's on Tuesday. My first, ahhh!

XmomX · January 2018

Hi,

3rd time Mom here! This pregnancy is a total surprise, my dh was set for a vasectomy consult next month

carolina422 · January 2018

@XmomX Wow that must have been a surprise!!!

allisontakesontwo · January 2018

Hi everyone! PT working mamma who runs events. Love my work and love My DD who is 2 1/2. This is baby #2 coming our way and the EDD is 9/15. First apt is January 12 and can’t come fast enough! DH and I are beyond excited as we have been trying for nearly a year. So excited to be on this journey and happy to be a part of this group with you all!

yosemite2018 · January 2018

Hi everyone! I’m 32 from SoCal and am due with #2 in late Aug/early Sept. My DD is almost 14 mo old and I am still active in my N16 BMB (under a different username). I’m a little freaked out about 2u2 but luckily we have lots of help, my mom retires later this year, and DD is a pretty easy kid (most of the time). I’m becoming an aunt later this week and my sister and I want our kids to grow up like siblings so DD will have to get used to the idea of having another baby around sooner rather than later. Hoping everyone here has a happy and healthy 9 months!

rachelflinn · January 2018

Finally out of Bumpie jail! STM, just started back to work full time last week. EDD is 9/11! My son is almost 19 months old and busy busy busy. Husband and I wanted another one so I had my IUD removed in October. Got a faint line on New Year’s Day. Still doesn’t feel real yet!!

bumblenaut · January 2018

Hello! I’m very excited to be here, I was a super lurker in TTGP and learned so much from those wonderful ladies. I’m glad I see some of them here. I have a 3.5-year-old DD who keeps me busy/entertained. DH is stationed on the other side of the world right now (as of Jan. 10th) – I texted him a picture of the BFP while he was on the plane leaving! Looking forward to joining him after I finish this degree in May.

fftm9318 · January 2018

hello! I'm 25, almost 26yo expecting my first child September 3rd. My husband and I have been married for almost five years, but I've been finishing up school. So getting pregnant wasn't really on the books yet. I actually graduate with my ba in May! Just in time to welcome out little one.
We call our little one our little bug because when I took the test and screamed for my husband, he thought I was screaming because there was a big in the bathroom he'd have to get. Boy was he wrong! My little one is the size of a honey bee today and I have crazy intense neasua! Worse in the AM then nagging all day long.
