Hi, I’m Autumn. I found out I’m pregnant on 3/27. This is baby #6, and while we weren’t trying to get pregnant, we are very excited! We were hoping to adopt again this year our 6 and 5 yr old girls are adopted), so I’m hoping that this pregnancy won’t affect that. I’m due 12/3. My other kids are 12, 11, 6, 5, and 3. Looking forward to meeting you all. 😊
Hello! STM here. DH & I have been married 10.5 years and have 1 DS who was an April 14 baby. I work in a cancer center as an oncology care coordinator and am hopefully going to be staying at home once this baby arrives.
Estimated due date is currently 12/25, but if I end up with a scheduled c section I’m sure it will be a few days before. We had a rough birth with DS & I was told that all future babies would have to be c-section but am hoping to get a second opinion since this baby is being born in a different state.
I was active on my BMB for DS & still friends with some of the mammas from that board. Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Hi everyone! I live in New Zealand. I have a little boy who was born January 16 (Due 31 Dec 15). I am due with number two on the 30 December after trying for two and a half years to get pregnant. Excited but can’t believe we are due basically the same date! Looking forward to spending the next 8 months with you ladies.
Hey yall! I am 29 married for 10 years to my high school sweetheart with 2 sons 9 and 7, we were shocked to find out we are expecting again but soon switched to excited! I found out on 3/30 then left for a work trip for 2 weeks so my first appointment is may 2nd not sure if i will have my ultrasound then or not. From my last period due date is December 2nd and i'm close to 9 weeks.❤
I've been waiting to post until this feels a bit more real. My husband and I are expecting our first child after many years of wrestling with whether or not we wanted kids. I'm in a PhD program and my husband will be starting one in the fall, so we're trying to be pretty minimalist in terms of baby preparation because two student salaries aren't going to take us very far. We're excited and still processing a lot of this. I don't have many symptoms and am looking forward to our first appointment in mid-May to make sure everything is going okay. My due date is 12/25 and I'm just over six weeks along. Also- anyone else hate telling people you're pregnant? I am really not into talking in great detail about my body and I feel like that's the first question I get: how are you feeling? I'm fine! Just pregnant!
@nerdmom0013 it's confusing! Based on my last menstrual period I'm just over six weeks, but my gynecologist used a wheel in her office to anticipate the due date and it said 12/25. I'm looking forward to my first appointment to get a better sense of how far along I am.
FTM and so excited to meet my little bebbles. I am high risk so we are blood test confirmed and my other blood test showed my HcG rising exactly how it should! Yay! We have our first ultra sound on May 6th. I’m super nervous because I just want to hear that little heartbeat and know it is okay. We got here after three IUIs and a loss in January. 6w1d with a due date of December 23rd.
Hey, Ladies: I am a third time mom with a (new) EDD of 12/6. DD Emily will be 4 in September and DS Ellis will be 2 in December.
As an FYI: I have been reading all of your journeys and wanted to finally and hesitantly introduce myself, because I think it is so important to have a community of mamas and mamas to be. I was originally in the November group with a due date of 11/29. However, I've (TW?) had an emotional three weeks and was TW sure I was losing the baby. Two weeks ago I was measuring a full week behind and there was a low HB of 108. However, I went back last Thursday, fully expecting the worst, and the baby grew perfectly and HB was up to 123. The doctor said everything was "PERFECT!" I know I ovulated CD 18 or 19, so the mismatching of dates isn't that alarming, although a full week stresses me out... but anyway, NEW due date of 12/6. I've never had a due date changed and am still worried with the HB at just the very low end of normal. However, I want to send this baby positive vibes!
Welcome, @EmilyLove25! I had a very similar experience with my pregnancy. For the last two weeks I’ve had spotting and so went in to check on things, and doc put me back a week and said baby had a “slow HB”. (And I know my dates are right) Then a week later baby was measuring just fine and had a normal HB, and everything is great. So weird, but happy things are normal!
Pregnant with #3! We already have 2 girls, ages (almost) 4, and 1.5. Looking forward to either 3 girls, or a new adventure with a baby boy! I’ve been married 7 years, and we just moved to Texas. 💕
@Poppy16 So glad to hear all is well with you--and thank you for sharing your story. It really helps hearing other people who have had the same situation!
EDD 12/24/19. This is my third pregnancy, I miscarried the first 2. Praying everything goes good this pregnancy. I go today for my 3rd u/s. I saw gestational sac on the first ultrasound and gestational sac and yolk sac on second and praying we see a strong heartbeat today! Prayers please!
Hello everyone! Currently pregnant with baby #4 (the final one!) EDD is 12/28. My best friend is also pregnant with her 5th baby so we are looking forward to the journey together (she is a week and a half further along EDD 12/15) so excited to have you all on the journey as well!
Hello Everyone!! Let me start by saying that was the longest 72 hour wait ever 🤣 So a little about myself My name's Amanda and I am a mother of two absolutely wild boys! This is my Fourth pregnancy. One ended in miscarriage. My EDD is 12/17 So as of right now the doctor says I'm 7w4d, but due to my very irregular cycles and the fact I stopped tracking last month (because I have been wedding planning!) I will have an ultrasound Wednesday!
I'm so excited to go through this journey with you all! Congratulations!
Hi ladies!! I’m a FTM in Texas, my DH and I just recently moved here. I am hoping to meet some new friends and moms Our current EDD is 12/1 and our first ultrasound is this Thursday!

What part of Texas? We're fairly new transplants to the Austin area!
Married to DH for 6 years (together for 16) DS born 12.13.14 DD born 10.15.16 BFP 1.24.18, MC 3.13.18 BFP 4.25.19, EDD 12.31.19
Due dec 7th, got my hgc levels back it’s 119624 and I was 8 weeks 3 days when I got the blood work done. I am currently 9 weeks today... anyone else have high hgc levels early and did you have one baby or multiple?
@jeenn10 my blood work was done on Wednesday the 1st at 4w4d, and it was 5,105. If it doubles as it should every 48 to 72 hours, I will be where are you are well before nine weeks. I think your number is normal. Do a quick Google search, there a lot of charts.
Hi everyone! My waiting period is up and I can finally post! my due date is 12/25! I have a 3 year old son and a loving fiance. I cant wait to learn everyone's stories!
Hello! My name is Karen and I’m currently pregnant with baby #2. My EDD it’s on December 23rd, I’m mommy to a 16 month old baby girl and married to my best friend 😍💍. I’m so excited and I can’t wait to see what this baby it’s going to be.
I'm a third time mom, EDD 12/8. My husband and I will be married for 7 years this summer. We have two boys who are 6 years old and a 2.5 years old and live in Missouri.
My first appointment will be on 5/14, when I am 11 weeks. I'm nervous for this appointment because my last OB moved a few months after kiddo #2, so we're starting with another new doctor.
I am 6 weeks pregnant with my second child and am already starting to noticeably show! I honestly look like I could be 3-4 months along! I started showing with my first at 12 weeks and it wasn't anything close to how I look now. I have not gone to the obgyn for an appt yet, but wondered how soon you started showing with your second baby?
@ashleypeck325 a lot of people don’t like to refer to it as “showing” since technically it isn’t your uterus, it is bloat. But at 5 weeks, I had a noticeable shift in my lower abdomen and can’t fit in my clothes the same way.
Hey y’all! My name is Kelly, and today I am 7w along with an EDD of 12/23. My (now) husband and I found out we were pregnant just two weeks before our wedding on 4/27/19. It was definitely a shock (and a little embarrassing because I was so excited about stopping HBC and using the FAM method...oops). But we quickly moved on from shock to excitement. He’s 30 and I’m 29, so we weren’t going to wait long after the wedding to start trying anyways! Our first OB appt is 5/13. I’ve read all I can find about what to expect at the first appointment, but any veteran tips or advice would be greatly appreciated! Just hoping to hear a good strong heart beat.
Anyways, looking forward to sharing this journey with everyone ❤️❤️
@errn18 that’s so funny- I’m also an ICU RN and my husband is a cop ☺️ Guess it’s a classic match! How do y’all make it work with the crazy schedules? That’s what we’re most nervous about right now. Ps congrats on Irish twins! So cool.
Hello, everyone! STM over here with my ds born in December ‘17. EDD 12/3. My last pregnancy ended in a miscarriage in January. We’re from MN but currently live in the UK. I’m anxious about navigating a new health system but we’ll see how it goes.
Hello ladies! My husband and I are expecting our 3rd due to arrive on the 12/16. We have 2 boys ages 6 and 5, really hoping for that girl this time😊. We are in Charleston SC and just really excited to add to our family this winter!
@kelcom89 my first appt with my Ob last time was just to get “set up” for the process. Like how many appts and get paperwork and all that fun stuff. My Ob doesn’t do ultrasounds so i had to go to a separate place for that.
First time Mom, my name is Meghan. Just had my first ultra sound today. We are 6 weeks and 5 days along. Due date is 12/26! We are so excited. My husband and I have been married for a little over a year and a half and are also building a house right now.
I am a FTM! My husband and I are expecting our blessing to arrive on 12/4. We’ve been married since 12/9/17, and live in Nebraska with our 3 year old chorkie mix. I’m so excited but nervous! I don’t know a ton about babies and I’m even afraid to hold them. I know, yikes! We have always wanted kids, so I guess it’s time to get over that fear haha 🤷🏻♀️
I can’t wait to use this community as a helpful source! 🥰
