Hi! Sorry for the super late intro. I'm Jesse and am due on July 22. My son was born in May 2016 and I was really active on that BMB and am still close with the group. I was also active on the July 14 board (under a different username) but my son was stillborn at 28 weeks, so I didn't really keep in touch from anyone on that board.
I I've lurked a bit, but just have debated about jumping in because of time constraints. My husband is gone quite a bit for work and I am a certified financial planner and my office has been extremely busy lately. However, this distraction is nice, too!
In case I participate in any threads I wanted to make sure I had a proper intro.
Hi everyone, My name is Kristen. I'm pregnant with my first, due July 10th. I'm not really sure what to expect, but so far it's been an interesting learning experience. The biggest thing I've learned so far is growing a human is weird. I'm starting to think that my husband's more excited than me... and that's saying something.
I'm currently in college for my Bachelor's Degree in Business concentration in Entrpenuership. It's been a stressful month between school, construction on our bathrooms, and my husband traveling since January 2nd through at least next week.
There's a lot that I know that I'm missing in this introduction, but pregnancy brain really is a thing.
Hey everyone! I’m a little late to the party but I have been creeping the boards lol. I live in Ontario and I’m a first time mom. My due date is July 1st and I get to find out today if I’m having a girl or boy! Can’t wait! I have a very supportive boyfriend and so far very supportive family. Just wanted to introduce myself in case I get to commenting on other boards.
Hi everyone. Im 34 and live in Atlanta but I’m moving back to nor cal in a few weeks!!! My hubby and I are very excited for our first baby who is a wedding night baby. We are 16 weeks and 2 days and are expecting July 11. My sister is expecting 2 weeks before me.
@Knottie69bca110d37ca08f welcome! please change your username so we can better get ti know you if you search psa knottie you will find how to do that or if you log in to your theknot account you can do that just fine
Hi everyone! My Name is Jess- I'm 36 and this is my first pregnancy. I've been extremely slow to announce anything or allow myself to feel excited about this as I had a heart attack in April 2017 (due to a tear in the lining of my artery thanks to Birth control) and all I was hearing was more and more negative about being pregnant at this time. Well, tests are all coming back good and I'm starting to get excited.
Somewhere around July 11th is my Date
This definitely was not planned but everything happens for a reason and I feel blessed- truly....
Hello, I'm expecting my first baby on July 12. We just found out on Friday that we're having a baby girl. I'm 24 and my husband is 29. We live about an hour outside Chattanooga. I'm really excited to be a part of this community!
Hey Mama's! My name is Bre, my boyfriend and I are expecting our little boy on July 10th, I am 17w1d today. I'm just now getting a hang of this app, so let me know if I am doing anything wrong! I'll be 22 in April, and my boyfriend is 25. This is our first we live in Central Florida so I'm dreading being so pregnant in the awful heat! But I know it will all be worth it in the end Great to meet you all
Hi all! Just a bit late to this. I’ve been looking at the questions section since I downloaded the app. Anyway, I’m 30 years old and my husband and I are expecting our first on July 10th after a year of trying. We’re both originally from New Jersey, but now live in in PA. We are so excited! We’ll find out the sex on Feb 21st.
I’m older (38) FTM expecting our rainbow baby on July 11th living in the northern suburbs of Atlanta.
I’ve been lurking on the boards on and off since I got my positive back in October. Now that I’m in the second trimester my anxiety has gone down and the fact that there’s an actual baby in there is really sinking in.
I'm Emily, and brand new to this community board situation. I've never posted on any prior to this, and hardly even know how to navigate on this new phone which doesn't help matters. That being said, please be forgiving if I don't follow community protocol, however I'm trying my best. Unfortunately, I typically work 60+ hours per week, trying to prepare for a move for my husband's job at the end of June, but I'll attempt to contribute as much as possible.
I currently live in Columbus, Ohio where I was born and raised along with my husband, and our 12 yo Boxer. I'm 33 yo and pregnant with our first. We will be finding out the gender this week via blood sample taken last week.
Both ourselves, family and friends are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new little one; however it's slightly bitter sweet, as my father is terminally ill, and will likely pass prior to the birth. I'm on here for support and information just as the rest of us are I'm sure, and I look forward to getting to know some of you.
@boem2018 Welcome! This is a great community who really watches out for eachother. I'm also a ftm and it can be a bit overwhelming on here. However, jump in where ever. Everyone is nice, even on their off days (pregnancy...it loves to test our hormones!). The mobile app sucks! I typically use my web browser to log in because of how frustrating the app is. I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I lost mine this past October, then found out I was pregnant the weekend of his celebration of life. I also lost my mother in law in December. So, it is a VERY bitter sweet pregnancy for my family. I am here if you need to vent or talk. Hang in there. Give the community a chance, I promise, they'll grow on you.
Hi @boem2018 welcome! We’re glad you’re going to stick around. I just wanted to say that I also have a parent (mother) who is terminally ill and will in all likelihood not be here when this baby comes. I can completely understand the weight you must be feeling, especially this being your first. If you ever want to talk feel free to message me.
Hi! I’m Natalie, FTM to a human. My husband and I currently have 2 fur babies. I’m 28 and he’s 27, we reside in Texas and have been together 7 years, married for 2.
In May and July of 2017 we had 2 consecutive mc’s. We then found out through blood work I had MTHFR which meant changing a couple of things and has led us to this healthy pregnancy. We got our BFP on Halloween morning, but until last month didn’t really let ourselves get too excited given our previous pregnancies.
We are thrilled and are due July 9th.

Hey all - I was active on the Board for a little while way back in November but had to take a little break. I am feeling less crazy and have been lurking for a while, so wanted to jump back in and re-intro myself. I'm 27, from Canada, this is my first pregnancy and am due July 22. I was active on the TTGP board and generally love the Bump community. Can't wait to re-get-to-know you all.

Hello all! I can’t remembering i posted in this when I joined but after a previous miscarriage I didn’t wanna want to Get to invested in it. ALmost 17 weeks and it’s starting to feel real! I’m Yolanda from Canada.. and excited for the journey ahead. Still nauseous so hopefully that ends soon !
@natalie_1989 Due date twins!! My sister has MTHFR and I’ve never been tested but assume I don’t have it, or I have a lesser symptomatic strain. She has found living gluten free has helped a lot with her symptoms!
Hi everyone - my name is elisa and I've been on the bump for a couple years, but did most of my active community posts on the infertility boards. my husband and i had gone through a few years of infertility (more details in my signature) and after a mini-laparotomy myomectomy to remove fibroids from my uterus, we got a BFP naturally. I am now 17 weeks and on cloud nine. So thankful for this little miracle to have happened for us! Other than that, I work in HR and love my husband and two dogs. I started vlogging my journey on youtube a couple years back, and recently shared my gender reveal video. I want to become an advocate for those who are struggling with infertility. Obviously im not a doctor, but id love to offer love and support to those who need a shoulder to cry on. I had a lot of that while going through my own struggles, and am so appreciative of my friends and family who kept cheering me on! I hope everyone on here has a beautiful pregnancy, and to those who are still struggling: DO NOT LOSE HOPE!
Hope you all have a great day!

Hey, My name is Ariana. I am 27 and this is my second pregnancy. My original EDD was in the beginning of August but has been changed to July due to the fact thatI am expecting twins!

I have a very large SCH which is not going away. But we are excited to have a new addition to our family
