Both DH and I are 29, turning 30 later this year. We are expecting our first, EDD 11/2. We have a 4 year old black lab named Tessie (hense the screen name). We are from New England and just got married this past October, although we've been together since we were sophomores in high school! Looking forward to connecting with all the other November '18 moms!

I have been [not so patiently] waiting all week for this bmb to be posted, haha.
I'm 31 and DH is 32. We have one daughter who is almost 17 months old and two rescue pups. This pregnancy was sort of unplanned. We wanted to wait until DD was a little older, but obviously we weren't being too terribly cautious! Anyway, we're excited about this baby and can't wait to see DD be an awesome big sister!
My EDD, by my calcutations, is 11/03. I have my first OB appointment on 03/16.
I was an active member of O16 and I can't wait to get to know you guys, as well!
Both MH and I are 30. We have an 18 month old DS, and 2 cats named Loki and Freya, and a puppy named Odin. We live in nice hot Texas!
Well, DH and I decided to start trying for our 2nd this year. I had my IUD removed December 27 2017. I started charting my BBT, CM, and OPK's. We got pregnant on the 2nd cycle! I can't believe it!! It took us 17 months with our first. After a year of trying, we got our fertility tested, and H had a low sperm count. We kept trying on our own, and 5 months later, we were pregnant. So I thought for SURE this would be a long haul. But I guess not! I am still super nervous since we are still SO EARLY. But keeping positive thoughts! Still can't believe it!!
EDD is November 6th, based on the online due date calendars. haha. Prenatal checkup is March 16th, and my first ultrasound is March 28th.
I was a member of the August 2016 BMB, as well as the TTGP board the last couple months.
Super excited, I can't wait to get to know everyone!
Also excited this board is finally open! I've been home with the flu (and freaking out about the flu/a fever in 1st tri!) basically since I found out, ha, so I've been stalking this page. Still kind of freaked out about it!
I'm 31, DH is 30, and we have an almost 4 year old and almost 5 year old (both girls). EDD 11/1. I've been around here(M13, M14, and the CD board), but not for quite awhile (both my BMBs moved to FB). We also have 2 fur babies (a boxer and a boxer lab).
I'm very happy this board is open too! I hail from ttgp boards.
I must preface my intro by stating that my first hcg level at 15dpiui was 14. That was two days ago. We have to go in again to make sure it doubles tomorrow morning. I was freaking out up until today when I learned that you can't just go off of one test and anything over 5 on the first test is considered pregnant. Previous hcg tests during bfn cycles was always <1miu
So for right now, I'm pregnant and I'm very very excited. MH and I tried naturally for 5-6 years before we learned about the 1 year rule. I was diagnosed with MS in the Summer of 2016 and PCOS last year. We had been doing IUI treatment cycles since last July with medications and got our first ever bfp 13dpiui on Sunday (3rd try; we had a lot of benched cycles due to cysts and other reasons). I'm still testing positive.
ff shows 11/5 as due date. I still have no symptoms other than headaches and mild twinges of pain.
Oh and we have one dog named Rosy. I both hope I get to and can't wait to get to know all of you!
People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

Hey! So happy this board is starting up. I was active in August '15 and had a lot of fun with the community.
DH and I are both 32, and as you can guess from the previous sentence we have a 2.5 year old DD. Getting pregnant with her was almost immediate, this time was 7 months active TTC (charting, opks, hio)! Got our BFP Sunday in Disney World of all places. I'm actually a lot more anxious this time around than last time. First u/s in two weeks! I'm thinking my EDD will actually be between 10/30-11/2, but I definitely think I'll fit in better here than in Oct.
Wishing everyone a h&h 9 months and can't wait to get to know y'all!
Hi everyone! I'm 30 and MH is 33. We live in central Maryland and are expecting our second child. Our daughter is 3.5 years old. We've been TTC since June 2017 and *TW-loss* I had 3 early losses since then. I've participated in two BMBs for just a few days at a time, so I'm really hopeful this one sticks. So far, this one is looking so much better than the last few pregnancies as my hcg results have been great and are more than doubling! *end TW* I have an ultrasound in 1.5 weeks to check how things are looking. My EDD is Halloween, based on ovulation, or November 2nd, based on LMP. Also, I really love gifs!
Hi everyone! Congrats on your BFPs! I’ll be 33 in a few weeks, MH will be 34. DS is 22 months. We are new to the Seattle area, relocated from the SF Bay Area last year. I’m a SAHM, and we have 1 rescued kitty, Khaleesi.
I was pretty shocked to get my BFP after just 5 months of NTNP, after DS took almost a year to conceive with temping/OPKs and all that. I’m due 11/1, but found out pretty early at just 3w+2, and have been hanging out in Oct18. Really looking forward to getting to know you ladies better. H&H 9 to us all!

Hello everyone!!!! I am super excited/nervous to be here. We had decided to try at the beginning of February for #2. We have a 3.5 year old son. However, midway through the month, my husband got a new job and we had to list our house and whatnot, so we decided that if it didn't happen already we would put it on hold until we got settled in the new place because we have to buy a new house, sell this house, I need a job, we move, etc. Well.....other plans were made for us because here I am. I'm a little worried about all of the above, but the support here is definitely going to be my go to.
I live near Richmond, VA but we are currently moving to the Hampton Roads area in May/June. My husband and I are both 30, he turns 31 in May and me in July. We have 2 yellow labs, Oakley who is almost 12 and Ava Lynn who is just over a year and a ball of crazy. Based on my LMP and due date calculator, I am due 11/5. However, my first appointment isn't until 3/27 (no blood betas, nothing.....just that appointment. I am freaking out.) So I guess we will get a better idea then. I will be scheduled for a repeat csection though, so I will likely deliver in October. I still would rather hang out here though...I feel like I would fit in better.
Congrats to everyone in here and everyone to come!

Like the rest of you I have been waiting for this board to open!
I just turned 34 and happy birthday to me we were surprised with a bfp. This was shocking as it took us 3 years to conceive our son. My husband is 31. I have a 10yo ds from a previous relationship and we have a 21 month old ds together. So we are DEFINITELY hoping for a girl this time!!
I do not have my first appointment until March 29th but based off my last cycle it is estimating November 9th. I was torn on which board to join as my boys both came early. I ultimately chose this one and have been lurking oct. we will see how the appointment goes!
congrats to all you guys and can’t wait to go through this journey with you! I joined way late with my last one (June 2016) and I am so happy I will be here from the beginning with this one!!
Hi all! I’ve been anxiously waiting for this board to be posted. This is is a bittersweet pregnancy as I suffered a loss on 11/29/17 at 8w3d. We are cautiously optimistic as we are worried about losing another baby. Our EDD is 11/1.
A little about us. I’m 37 and will still be 37 when our baby is born. Hubs is 36 (turning 37 soon!). We’ve been together for almost 8 years (August) and married for almost 4 years (3/15!!!). I have an almost 17 year old (he turns 17 on Easter Sunday) from a previous relationship. Together we have a 3 year old sassy sweet daughter. We are huge animal lovers. 2 dogs (Great Dane and Italian Mastiff) and 2 ducks. We live in Burlington County, NJ.
I look forward to taking this journey with all of you!
FINALLY!! Hello, fellow N18ers!! This is PMForbie. I'm an STM with a bouncing13 month old DS, I'm on the cusp of 30, will be hitting the new decade this month, and just celebrated my 3 year anniversary with DH (35) in January.
I live in a warm state with Zika concerns and plan to hibernate the summer away or at least stay indoors as much as possible. I have 3 fur babies and one feather baby. My plan is to leave my current job by the end of May and become a SAHM while pursuing a master's in school counseling.
I just got my BFP Tuesday and EDD is 11/6. I'm undecided as to if I want to be Team Green again this time. There's a lot of pressure from the in laws that makes DH not want to do it again. If you plan to be team green, let me tell you, it was a lot of fun and not nearly as difficult as every single person said it would be!

Hi all! I'm excited the board is open too! I got my bfp this week and am due on 11/7. First appt is scheduled for 3/21. I can't wait! Congratulations to everyone!
So, a little about me... I am 33. DH is 35. We've been married about 5.5 years and have two kiddos. Our girl will be 5 in October and our son will be 2 in August. We've also got two fur babies. Our house and hearts are full! I was an active member of the August '16 bump group and am still super close to those girls in our facebook group. I'm hoping to find a similar community again as I've absolutely loved having my Aug '16 mamas around for everything these last few years.
I am really looking forward to getting to know everyone.
@oaklandava It'll be one of my state's universities' online programs, the one I choose will depend on if I want to pursue a MA or MEd. I imagine there's plenty of need in my community at the moment due to recent events.

I am 27, DH is 29 and DD will be 2 in May. DD and I relocated from central California to just outside of Seattle in September. DH is active duty military and is serving overseas until January 2020, so this journey is one I'll be taking on my own with the exception of a few very short visits from him (which is how we got pregnant this go 'round). I was active on the May '16 board and cannot wait to get to know you ladies as well!
I’m in a similar boat as @suzycupcake with hCG levels, but I’m trying to stay optimistic. BFP yesterday with an estimated due date of Nov 7. I had about a week of spotting prior to the BFP, but it seems to have stopped now. Keeping so many fingers crossed.
I’m 32, hubby is 33 and we have a 3.5yr old DD. I was active back on the August ‘14 BMB with a username that was way too close to my actual name for a public forum, lol. DD was born with a variety of complicated medical issues, but she’s doing amazingly well right now. We just think she is the coolest, and that she will make the BEST big sister. We also have two big old ridiculous dogs and are excited about the prospect of adding to our family! I used to do musical theatre professionally, but now I stay home with DD.
I'm a native Texan living in England at the moment. I'm 30 and DH is 32. We have two daughters and two fluffy shihtzus. Our oldest DD is seven and our youngest is just about two. Birth girls took well over a year and a bit of Clomid to conceive. We were prepared to go that route again to finish our family, but had a BFP the morning after my OB/RE referral was placed after 14 months of TTC.
Very excited to be here! EDD is 11/3. Hope we all have a H&H 9 months!
@wannaflickone Yay! Another August '16 bumpy!! @PMForbie Are there still Zika concerns? I stopped paying attention after I had my first. It was just starting up as a super big deal while pregnant in '16. Has it officially come to the states?? I am in Texas and we weren't concerned. (I actually went to the Caribbean on a cruise in 2016 while 13 weeks pregnant, and had to stay inside the ship while docked in fear of mosquitoes. Haha.) Now I am freaking out. I live in the country too, soooo mosquitoes can get bad here.
I am pregnant with my second! But afraid to trust it’s real. I just went through two back to back chemical pregnancies and this is still early so fingers crossed.
@whitmore1027 I was preggo in 2016 as well during the hype but haven't heard nearly as much about it now, not sure if it's because I had DS, it's gone down, or we got rid of TV for a while and just reconnected on Sunday. Here's a link from the CDC and it looks like we're both in hot spots, but only 2 cases in TX and 2 in FL (I'm FL BTW).
Hi everyone! I just found out last Friday that I'm pregnant with baby number two. I'm so incredibly nervous because I had back to back miscarriages in 2016 and I don't want anything bad to happen this time around. Fingers crossed and lots of prayers!!!
I'm 36 and my hubby is 35. We have an adorable 3 and a half year old son, Zane. I'm not sure he'll enjoy sharing the spotlight!!
I look forward to sharing with all of you and hearing your
I'm technically due in October, but if this one is anything like DS he'll hang on until well into November. Also, I found that it really sucks to be the last few days in the month because by the time I had anything relevant to contribute to a given subject the thread was two weeks old. So here I am.
I'll mention it here and probably nowhere else again unless anyone has questions. This pregnancy is a bit unconventional for me because I am a surrogate for a wonderful couple with fertility issues. I tried surrogate boards, but the ones I found all annoyed me.
I'm 34, DH is 38, and DS turned 2 in December. We live in Southern California, and although we constantly complain about the "sunshine tax" I could never imagine myself living anywhere else. I'm a weirdo who loves being pregnant, although this time around is already a bit more rough on me than my first pregnancy. I'm excited to be active on a BMB again. I was fairly active on TTGP my first go round, but a whole bunch of drama happened and I jumped ship right before I got my BFP.
I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!
I found out we were pregnant last week on Wednesday, 9 DPO, with baby #4. We have a 5.5 year old son, 4 year old daughter, and 2 year old daughter. We sadly miscarried last year in June at 13 weeks and we are finally pregnant again.
I am 31 and my husband is 33.
I was super active on the bump back in 2011 after my first ever pregnancy/loss when I became pregnant with DS. I am actually still best friends with my labor buddy from pGAL and stay in touch with many of the other ladies. I changed my sn b/c I lost my screen name/password info but am happy to be a part this again.
Loss1 June 2011 DS June 2012 DD1 February 2014 DD2 February 2016 Loss2 June 2017
Hi! I’m glad this board is finally open too I am pregnant with our second and due either 10/30 (LMP) or 11/5 based on ovulation, so I’m assuming November is more accurate. I will hopefully get a better due date estimate at my first appointment, though it isn’t until April 10th! So I’ll be impatiently waiting until then. I’m excited to get to know all of you!
I was wondering when this board would be up... I’m 29 and MH is 33, we live in the Caribbean. We did our first IVF cycle last month, during our one year anniversary trip. This will be both our first child or children after experiencing 3 losses. I am currently 4w2d and 11dp5dt. According to the due date calculator my estimated due date is Nov 6. I just did my second beta today which was 546 and first was 193. My doc thinks we may have more than one baking. First u/s is two weeks from today and we’re anxious and overjoyed. I look forward to experiencing this journey with you other ladies. Happy and Healthy 9 months lovelies!

Hello lovely mommas! I just got my bfp on Monday and my calculations put my due date as 11/4 according to my lmp but I am pretty sure I ovulated late. (I feel it but this month it wasn't as prominent.) My DH is 35 and I am 34. (Barely made it in under AMA by a few months!) We already have an adorable almost 3 year old DS. (3 in May) We suffered a MC before our DS. We are high school sweethearts but waited to get married and have kids until over 30. I have my first appt for paperwork & blood work 3/21 and first midwife appt 4/4. I am looking to have VBAC so any of you have info on having one I would appreciate it. I am hoping this group is better then the one with my DS. They were caddy, rude and always looking for ways to start drama, not my cup of tea. I left after a month.
I got my BFP on earlier this week. I found out early- still only 3 weeks and some change. EDD is 11/10. This is my fourth pregnancy but will be my third baby. DD1 is 3 and 1/2. DD2 is turning 2 in April.

Re: Introduce Yourself Here
Both DH and I are 29, turning 30 later this year. We are expecting our first, EDD 11/2. We have a 4 year old black lab named Tessie (hense the screen name).

I'm 31 and DH is 32. We have one daughter who is almost 17 months old and two rescue pups. This pregnancy was sort of unplanned. We wanted to wait until DD was a little older, but obviously we weren't being too terribly cautious! Anyway, we're excited about this baby and can't wait to see DD be an awesome big sister!
My EDD, by my calcutations, is 11/03. I have my first OB appointment on 03/16.
I was an active member of O16 and I can't wait to get to know you guys, as well!
Both MH and I are 30. We have an 18 month old DS, and 2 cats named Loki and Freya, and a puppy named Odin. We live in nice hot Texas!
Well, DH and I decided to start trying for our 2nd this year. I had my IUD removed December 27 2017. I started charting my BBT, CM, and OPK's. We got pregnant on the 2nd cycle! I can't believe it!! It took us 17 months with our first. After a year of trying, we got our fertility tested, and H had a low sperm count. We kept trying on our own, and 5 months later, we were pregnant. So I thought for SURE this would be a long haul. But I guess not! I am still super nervous since we are still SO EARLY. But keeping positive thoughts! Still can't believe it!!
EDD is November 6th, based on the online due date calendars. haha. Prenatal checkup is March 16th, and my first ultrasound is March 28th.
I was a member of the August 2016 BMB, as well as the TTGP board the last couple months.
Super excited, I can't wait to get to know everyone!

I'm 31, DH is 30, and we have an almost 4 year old and almost 5 year old (both girls). EDD 11/1. I've been around here(M13, M14, and the CD board), but not for quite awhile (both my BMBs moved to FB). We also have 2 fur babies (a boxer and a boxer lab).
I'm also a runner and wanna be yogi.
Heeey! Can't wait to meet everyone!
I must preface my intro by stating that my first hcg level at 15dpiui was 14. That was two days ago. We have to go in again to make sure it doubles tomorrow morning. I was freaking out up until today when I learned that you can't just go off of one test and anything over 5 on the first test is considered pregnant. Previous hcg tests during bfn cycles was always <1miu
So for right now, I'm pregnant and I'm very very excited. MH and I tried naturally for 5-6 years before we learned about the 1 year rule. I was diagnosed with MS in the Summer of 2016 and PCOS last year. We had been doing IUI treatment cycles since last July with medications and got our first ever bfp 13dpiui on Sunday (3rd try; we had a lot of benched cycles due to cysts and other reasons). I'm still testing positive.
ff shows 11/5 as due date. I still have no symptoms other than headaches and mild twinges of pain.
Oh and we have one dog named Rosy. I both hope I get to and can't wait to get to know all of you!

DH and I are both 32, and as you can guess from the previous sentence we have a 2.5 year old DD. Getting pregnant with her was almost immediate, this time was 7 months active TTC (charting, opks, hio)! Got our BFP Sunday in Disney World of all places. I'm actually a lot more anxious this time around than last time. First u/s in two weeks! I'm thinking my EDD will actually be between 10/30-11/2, but I definitely think I'll fit in better here than in Oct.
Wishing everyone a h&h 9 months and can't wait to get to know y'all!
Also, I really love gifs!

I was pretty shocked to get my BFP after just 5 months of NTNP, after DS took almost a year to conceive with temping/OPKs and all that. I’m due 11/1, but found out pretty early at just 3w+2, and have been hanging out in Oct18. Really looking forward to getting to know you ladies better.
H&H 9 to us all!
@lifesabeach85 How fun to find out at Disneyworld!
@suzycupcake Thinking of you today! Fx for doubling numbers! Please keep up updated!
@lifesabeach85 I love Disney, so color me jealous!

Hello everyone!!!! I am super excited/nervous to be here. We had decided to try at the beginning of February for #2. We have a 3.5 year old son. However, midway through the month, my husband got a new job and we had to list our house and whatnot, so we decided that if it didn't happen already we would put it on hold until we got settled in the new place because we have to buy a new house, sell this house, I need a job, we move, etc. Well.....other plans were made for us because here I am. I'm a little worried about all of the above, but the support here is definitely going to be my go to.
I live near Richmond, VA but we are currently moving to the Hampton Roads area in May/June. My husband and I are both 30, he turns 31 in May and me in July. We have 2 yellow labs, Oakley who is almost 12 and Ava Lynn who is just over a year and a ball of crazy. Based on my LMP and due date calculator, I am due 11/5. However, my first appointment isn't until 3/27 (no blood betas, nothing.....just that appointment. I am freaking out.) So I guess we will get a better idea then. I will be scheduled for a repeat csection though, so I will likely deliver in October. I still would rather hang out here though...I feel like I would fit in better.
Congrats to everyone in here and everyone to come!

I just turned 34 and happy birthday to me we were surprised with a bfp. This was shocking as it took us 3 years to conceive our son. My husband is 31. I have a 10yo ds from a previous relationship and we have a 21 month old ds together. So we are DEFINITELY hoping for a girl this time!!
I do not have my first appointment until March 29th but based off my last cycle it is estimating November 9th. I was torn on which board to join as my boys both came early. I ultimately chose this one and have been lurking oct. we will see how the appointment goes!
congrats to all you guys and can’t wait to go through this journey with you! I joined way late with my last one (June 2016) and I am so happy I will be here from the beginning with this one!!
A little about us. I’m 37 and will still be 37 when our baby is born. Hubs is 36 (turning 37 soon!). We’ve been together for almost 8 years (August) and married for almost 4 years (3/15!!!). I have an almost 17 year old (he turns 17 on Easter Sunday) from a previous relationship. Together we have a 3 year old sassy sweet daughter. We are huge animal lovers. 2 dogs (Great Dane and Italian Mastiff) and 2 ducks. We live in Burlington County, NJ.
I look forward to taking this journey with all of you!

FINALLY!! Hello, fellow N18ers!! This is PMForbie. I'm an STM with a bouncing13 month old DS, I'm on the cusp of 30, will be hitting the new decade this month, and just celebrated my 3 year anniversary with DH (35) in January.
I live in a warm state with Zika concerns and plan to hibernate the summer away or at least stay indoors as much as possible. I have 3 fur babies and one feather baby. My plan is to leave my current job by the end of May and become a SAHM while pursuing a master's in school counseling.
I just got my BFP Tuesday and EDD is 11/6. I'm undecided as to if I want to be Team Green again this time. There's a lot of pressure from the in laws that makes DH not want to do it again. If you plan to be team green, let me tell you, it was a lot of fun and not nearly as difficult as every single person said it would be!

who are you going through for it? I liked it fine. I started it 2.5 years after graduating with my Psych Bachelor's too. I am currently exploring other jobs/fields because DH got a job and we are moving and there is nothing in my field around. Soooo...we shall see!

So, a little about me... I am 33. DH is 35. We've been married about 5.5 years and have two kiddos. Our girl will be 5 in October and our son will be 2 in August. We've also got two fur babies. Our house and hearts are full! I was an active member of the August '16 bump group and am still super close to those girls in our facebook group. I'm hoping to find a similar community again as I've absolutely loved having my Aug '16 mamas around for everything these last few years.
I am really looking forward to getting to know everyone.

@offtoneverland Congratulations! I have my fingers crossed so hard for you!!
I am 27, DH is 29 and DD will be 2 in May. DD and I relocated from central California to just outside of Seattle in September. DH is active duty military and is serving overseas until January 2020, so this journey is one I'll be taking on my own with the exception of a few very short visits from him (which is how we got pregnant this go 'round). I was active on the May '16 board and cannot wait to get to know you ladies as well!
Eta: due date is 11/4
I’m in a similar boat as @suzycupcake with hCG levels, but I’m trying to stay optimistic. BFP yesterday with an estimated due date of Nov 7. I had about a week of spotting prior to the BFP, but it seems to have stopped now. Keeping so many fingers crossed.
I’m 32, hubby is 33 and we have a 3.5yr old DD. I was active back on the August ‘14 BMB with a username that was way too close to my actual name for a public forum, lol. DD was born with a variety of complicated medical issues, but she’s doing amazingly well right now. We just think she is the coolest, and that she will make the BEST big sister. We also have two big old ridiculous dogs and are excited about the prospect of adding to our family! I used to do musical theatre professionally, but now I stay home with DD.
Nice to see/meet y’all! I hope I get to stay!!!
I'm a native Texan living in England at the moment. I'm 30 and DH is 32. We have two daughters and two fluffy shihtzus. Our oldest DD is seven and our youngest is just about two. Birth girls took well over a year and a bit of Clomid to conceive. We were prepared to go that route again to finish our family, but had a BFP the morning after my OB/RE referral was placed after 14 months of TTC.
Very excited to be here! EDD is 11/3. Hope we all have a H&H 9 months!
@PMForbie Are there still Zika concerns? I stopped paying attention after I had my first. It was just starting up as a super big deal while pregnant in '16. Has it officially come to the states?? I am in Texas and we weren't concerned. (I actually went to the Caribbean on a cruise in 2016 while 13 weeks pregnant, and had to stay inside the ship while docked in fear of mosquitoes. Haha.) Now I am freaking out. I live in the country too, soooo mosquitoes can get bad here.

@whitmore1027 I was preggo in 2016 as well during the hype but haven't heard nearly as much about it now, not sure if it's because I had DS, it's gone down, or we got rid of TV for a while and just reconnected on Sunday. Here's a link from the CDC and it looks like we're both in hot spots, but only 2 cases in TX and 2 in FL (I'm FL BTW).

Hi everyone! I just found out last Friday that I'm pregnant with baby number two. I'm so incredibly nervous because I had back to back miscarriages in 2016 and I don't want anything bad to happen this time around. Fingers crossed and lots of prayers!!!
I'm 36 and my hubby is 35. We have an adorable 3 and a half year old son, Zane. I'm not sure he'll enjoy sharing the spotlight!!
I look forward to sharing with all of you and hearing your

I'm technically due in October, but if this one is anything like DS he'll hang on until well into November. Also, I found that it really sucks to be the last few days in the month because by the time I had anything relevant to contribute to a given subject the thread was two weeks old. So here I am.
I'll mention it here and probably nowhere else again unless anyone has questions. This pregnancy is a bit unconventional for me because I am a surrogate for a wonderful couple with fertility issues. I tried surrogate boards, but the ones I found all annoyed me.
I'm 34, DH is 38, and DS turned 2 in December. We live in Southern California, and although we constantly complain about the "sunshine tax" I could never imagine myself living anywhere else. I'm a weirdo who loves being pregnant, although this time around is already a bit more rough on me than my first pregnancy. I'm excited to be active on a BMB again. I was fairly active on TTGP my first go round, but a whole bunch of drama happened and I jumped ship right before I got my BFP.
I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!
I found out we were pregnant last week on Wednesday, 9 DPO, with baby #4. We have a 5.5 year old son, 4 year old daughter, and 2 year old daughter. We sadly miscarried last year in June at 13 weeks and we are finally pregnant again.
I am 31 and my husband is 33.
I was super active on the bump back in 2011 after my first ever pregnancy/loss when I became pregnant with DS. I am actually still best friends with my labor buddy from pGAL and stay in touch with many of the other ladies. I changed my sn b/c I lost my screen name/password info but am happy to be a part this again.

I’m 29 and MH is 33, we live in the Caribbean. We did our first IVF cycle last month, during our one year anniversary trip. This will be both our first child or children after experiencing 3 losses. I am currently 4w2d and 11dp5dt. According to the due date calculator my estimated due date is Nov 6. I just did my second beta today which was 546 and first was 193. My doc thinks we may have more than one baking. First u/s is two weeks from today and we’re anxious and overjoyed.
I look forward to experiencing this journey with you other ladies. Happy and Healthy 9 months lovelies!

My DH is 35 and I am 34. (Barely made it in under AMA by a few months!) We already have an adorable almost 3 year old DS. (3 in May) We suffered a MC before our DS.
We are high school sweethearts but waited to get married and have kids until over 30.
I have my first appt for paperwork & blood work 3/21 and first midwife appt 4/4. I am looking to have VBAC so any of you have info on having one I would appreciate it.
I am hoping this group is better then the one with my DS. They were caddy, rude and always looking for ways to start drama, not my cup of tea. I left after a month.
I got my BFP on earlier this week. I found out early- still only 3 weeks and some change. EDD is 11/10. This is my fourth pregnancy but will be my third baby. DD1 is 3 and 1/2. DD2 is turning 2 in April.
