I'm a teacher too! This is definitely the most convenient time to need a bathroom break every 20 min! It makes me appreciate what other teacher mamas go through if they're not on summer break in the first trimester! I also did the math and would end up missing standardized testing in the spring during my maternity leave, oh darn! /s
Due with baby #2 on March 3rd. Our daughter will be 5 on March 8th! Excited and nervous this time around. We may have a February baby, I was induced early with my daughter. But happy to be back!
Hi everyone! My EDD is March 4th and with normal progesterone and hcg that is doubling right around 48 hours, I am cautiously optimistic.
*TW Loss* A bit about me. For the past 9 years my DH and I have never prevented and have spent a lot of that time actively trying. My DD is 5, DS is 2 and we have had 2 losses. I was scheduled to start femara next month but due to DD's health problems a few weeks ago DH and I decided it would be selfish to keep actively TTC...then surprise!
I was very active on TB when pregnant with my daughter as well as when she was an infant, but have not really been around at all for a few years.
11/2010 Diagnosed with PCOS
10/31/11 M/C at 9 weeks 1/12/13 DD was born 4/9/16 DS was born 9/17 CP 6/23/18 BFP EDD 3/4/19
Hi mamas! My name is Kelly. Due with my second March 4th. I will also have two under two as my DD just turned one last week! I love/hate finding out so early because the wait to see the first sonogram and share the news kills me!
Hi all! I'm also very hesitantly introducing myself here. Due date is March 2nd and I just got my bfp yesterday, as I was out of town this past week and so put off testing (although I was pretty sure it would be positive).
**TW** I had a CP our first month trying in January 2017 and more recently a MC at 9 weeks in January 2018. I'm extremely nervous about this one, but am trying to stay hopeful, too.
Add me to the list of teachers who are super excited about the timing of this pregnancy! If all goes well, I'll have enough leave time to be able to take the rest of the school year off and start back again in August. My biggest concern about timing, though...with being off right now, I have a lot more time to obsess over every.little.thing with this pregnancy!
Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone here over the coming months!
Hi everyone! My name is Julie and I am currently pregnant with my second child. EDD is March 4th. Hope we all get to know each other through the coming months!
Hi all!!! I can’t believe I’m finally posting in a BMB. It’s been a long road for me and DH. We have been trying for three years *TW had 2 CPs in between End TW* and have done multiple medicated cycles, IUIs, and 2 IVF cycles. I just got back my positive beta results yesterday after a FET cycle and as of yesterday I am 4 weeks pregnant with an estimated due date of 3/7. I am so beyond grateful, thankful, and excited to be here! Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
I’m due 3/10, which is also my birthday. I have 1 DD born 10 days early in July 2016 with an August due date, so I’m wondering if this baby will be born on DH’s birthday, 2/28.
****TW loss mentioned - I have never struggled TTC, and DD was conceived just before we were going to start trying, so I was surprised when I had a MMC at 12 weeks, with D&C on 2/9 (chromosomal abnormality 45X), and then a never ending CP (maybe just call it a blighted ovum) that finally ended at 10 weeks after another D&C on 5/9 (not enough tissue to test). TW ended****
I’m currently a SAHM, formerly an elementary school classroom teacher and resource room teacher, married to my college sweetheart for almost 6 years, together for 12. We have two cats and we want dogs when the kids are older. Just hoping to end up with two children: my star, Stella, and my rainbow baby, like my username suggests.
@novelblessings I think I’ll end up delivering in February, too (provided that all goes well). My gestations have shortened with each pregnancy (George was born at 35 weeks). Thankfully they’re all healthy.
Hi ladies! I’m Maggie and I found out crazy early (7dpo!) that I am expecting my second March 11.
It took us 6 months of really trying to make my daughter, who is 2.5, and about 6 days to make this little chia seed. I never thought I would be this lucky!
I am a former scientist, now a medical writer, living in Massachusetts. I am an avid runner, a home chef, and an amateur knitter.
I really enjoyed the Bump board I was part of with my daughter, and I hope this one will be just as much fun.
Hi! I’ve been lurking pretty hardcore for nearly a week, guess I might as well introduce myself and join this lovely community
I’m 34 and MH is 40. We’ve been together 12 years (married almost 4). This is my first pregnancy and I’m quite nervous to invest too much emotionally until I finish the first trimester. But I’ve already started picking out names, planning a nursery, reading all the pregnancy books...eep! I keep telling myself to chill out . I’m only 4 weeks along and my EDD is March 8th.
I was in the TTGP group for a little bit and I am so grateful for the support and advice I got from the ladies there. I honestly think MH and I were successful this cycle due to the information I learned there and I am so so appreciative (our first cycle we didn’t even realize we completely missed FW). I am happy not to be in the group anymore, but I do miss the community and hope so much to see many TTGPers graduate to their BMBs.
My name is Bry, and this is my fifth pregnancy. I have a seven year old son, and (trigger warning) I’ve had three miscarriages in the last three years. I’ve had two later losses and my latest loss was at six weeks.
I am due approximately March 4th, but haven’t had it confirmed by my doctor yet. I just got three positive tests this weekend. I have high hopes that this pregnancy will result in us taking home our baby in nine months. Our son has been begging for a sibling (specifically a sister) for almost five years now. I have such a good feeling right now and my husband is just as excited as I am. We refuse to be scared this time around.
I am looking forward to getting to know you ladies.
We have two sleeping beauties in heaven. Jack gained his wings on 09/02/2016. Kali gained her wings on 07/28/2015. They will be forever missed.
Hi! I am cautiously introducing myself, as (TW) I had a CP two cycles ago. I got a super early positive on Friday at 8 dpo. According to Fertility Friend, my due date is March 14.
I am a school psychologist from NY. I am 38 and DH is 41. We have been together 11 years and married almost 6. This will be our second LO, my DD is 4.5. I was pretty active on my first BMB and I still close with many of the ladies on FB. I am excited to get to know you all!
Hello all! This is my first pregnancy and I'm due March 5th. I'm also a teacher (are we all obsessive planners? haha!) I'm really excited and really terrified of somehow messing this up. Glad to have contact with others in the same boat especially at this really stage when everything is so hush hush! I'm dying to ask my mama friends about how they felt at 5 weeks but it's too early to reveal!
I’m also a June 2017 mom and was active in TTGP before that. I loved getting to know my BMB and am very close with many other J17 moms! It’s so amazing to have a strong support system, especially if you’re a FTM.
DD turned one on June 1.
I’m a teacher too. While March is ideal timing, we were expecting the TTGP phase to last much longer than it did. I was a little shocked by my BFP, but absolutely thrilled. EDD is 3/11.
Hello ladies! Jade here, I found out yesterday that I’m expecting on March 10th.
I had my IUD removed last month with the intention of TTC soon, but due to super irregular cycles we are expecting a bit sooner than we had originally planned (still breastfeeding my 2 year old, I am curious as to how my EDD will be affected with such wonky cycles).
I have three daughters: 18 (!!!), 16, and 2. My husband and I own a bar in Brooklyn and have one fur baby, a husky. In my free time (lol) I play the cello, am an avid runner, and love sewing and cooking.
I was an active member on the May 2016 BMB and am looking forward to this one!
Hi ladies! Due March 8 with baby #3. Took us almost a year and a half to get this babe. TW- I had an early loss in October, blighted ovum. After that I was referred to an RE due to short LP. One month of testing and they diagnosed me with unexplained secondary infertility. I was hesitant to move forward with clomid/IUI because they wouldn’t budge on trying anything else. DH asked that we try 2 cycles with more frequency, so I agreed. I increased my vitex supplement and this cycle we used preseed! Super excited and praying for a sticky babe. I had a lot of anxiety early on with my loss that something was wrong, but feeling opposite with this one❤️
I have a daughter who is 5, and a son who is 3. They keep me on my toes but my lord are they my world!
Its crazy to think I was pregnant for the first time almost 6 years ago- I forget so much about symptoms but am trying to enjoy this last pregnancy ❤️
Hi there! Another cautious introduction here. I have a DD that will be two in two weeks! We have been TTC for a year now *tw loss- we had a miscarriage in Sept and two CPs since then. I’ve been very active on the TTCAL board and that was extremely helpful! End TW* My EDD is March 13th! So far my HCG numbers are doubling nicely so I am just praying this is it for us! I was also a middle school teacher but now stay home with our DD and teach FIT4MOM classes.
Hi ladies! Just got my BFP this morning, due March 16th, but will have a repeat c-section around 39 weeks. This is baby #2 for us, our DD is 5 1/2. *TW loss-I had a miscarriage with my first pregnancy, and concieved my daughter a month and a half later. End TW*
Hi there, I'm a first time mom here. Due sometime in March. Will have my first appt at the end of July. I am excited, nauseous, tired, and obsessively trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks Natalie
Hello! My husband and I have been TTC#2 for over 3 years and today I got a positive test! I can’t even put into words how joyful we feel. It’s been an interesting journey. Based on when I ovulated my EDD is 3/9. So excited to finally move to a BMB again ❤️
Early posting, with high hopes for a successful embryo transfer on 7/5. Katie, 39 from Las Vegas. This will be my second pregnancy from our first IVF cycle. DS was born July 2016. I was not very active on that BMB board, more active on Infertility/IVF. I look forward to getting to know you all! This TWW is gonna kill me! I'm on estradiol and progesterone (side effects feel like early symptoms) and DD will be 3/23, we are putting in one female embryo. Fingers crossed! Hold on little girl!
@bonmorgan I’m in the same boat. Estimated due date between March 4th and 6th. This is also my fifth pregnancy trying for a second living child. Prayers and fingers crossed!
We have two sleeping beauties in heaven. Jack gained his wings on 09/02/2016. Kali gained her wings on 07/28/2015. They will be forever missed.
Hi everyone! Cautious introduction here... My DH and I have been TTC for 13 years now, had a couple failed IUI's, and just recently did a round of IVF. As for now, our first embaby has stuck, and I am estimated to be 5 weeks along with a EDD of 3/2/19. This is our first pregnancy, I'm 35, will be 36 at the end of this month, and DH is 39, will be 40 in January, so we are super excited but also a little nervous about everything!
Hi everyone, I’ve been lurking until I got my betas back to make sure (so far) everything is going good. Edd based on LMP is 3/1, based on IUI it’s 3/6 so we’ll see what they say last time it was still LMP. I have a DD born May 2017 and was/am active in the May17 board. We planned for two under two and also have two large fur babies. Excited to get to know all of you on this journey.
Hello, I'm due March 3, 2019. This will be my third baby! My husband and I have two daughters, ages 4 and 18 months. We are very excited for this third baby. I'm so early, trying not to get too excited, I had a chemical miscarriage before my second daughter so I'm extra cautious I feel like.
Hi everyone!!! Congrats!! I’m going to be a first time mom..it feels so crazy to say that!!! My EDD is March 12. We don’t want to tell our parents till we have the dr appt, but we plan on spending the weekend after the 4th of July with my parents and I’m gonna try to keep it a secret, but I’m super close with my mom so we will see!! As for everyone else I want to wait until 10-12 weeks. Again though we have a friends trip planned to go camping. I’m not sure if I can trick everyone if I don’t have a beer by the campfire
Hi everyone! Congrats to you all! I got my BFP today! I honestly can’t believe it! My EDD is March 7 which is especially crazy because my sons birthday is March 27 and his Due date was March 28 in 2017! I’m a teacher along with some others in here so I’m thankful for another March baby! Honestly it hasn’t necessarily hit me yet that I’m actually pregnant! I’m not sure when we are going to tell friends and family. I’m super close to my mom so it will be hard to keep it from her I know it!
Just got a very early BFP at 9 DPO. I am also a teacher and this is going to be my second March baby! (BMB March ‘16) Guess I lucked out twice! Can’t wait to get to know all of you! H&H 9 months to all. EDD is 3/18
I've been creeping on this board the last few days, waiting to confirm with my obgyn, because I just couldn't wrap my head around the idea that I could actually be pregnant. (I have really irregular periods, but I guess four home pregnancy tests don't really lie, though!)
To be completely honest, I'm actually due Feb. 25 (based on the date of the first day of my last period), BUT I went in for my 6 week ultrasound today and was told that I wasn't quite 6 weeks, so my due date may change. Either way, I feel like I have such a late start on the February board -- and I'm a little overwhelmed by all their posts -- that I'd love to post with you all in the March group, if that's okay!
This is a first pregnancy for me and I'm so excited! It feels a little unreal, but we saw the heartbeat today so that helped everything sink in.
Hello everyone! This is my second early BFP with an EDD of 3/15/19! DS is 7 months and we were in the November 2017 BMB. I also found out at about 3 weeks 4 days with him so I wasn't too surprised when I got this BFP. I lost my password for my old account so this one is a new one
This is my 4th pregnancy but hopefully my 2nd take home baby.
