***THIS POST WILL MENTION PREGNANCY, BIRTH OR BABIES. If you are having a hard TTC or TTCAL day, please read at your own discretion***
Hello old friends, good to see you! ***As a courtesy to those still TTC on this board, please do not post bump pictures here.*** If you were a regular poster on TTGP we'd love to get an update on you this month! Please tell us how you are doing!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when?
*How far along are you?
*Which birth month board/due date?
*Team Pink/Blue/Green?
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share?
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? August 2018 - June 2019
*How far along are you? 8 weeks and 2 days! Just saw heartbeat on Friday ❤️.
*Which birth month board/due date? February BMB, DD is 2/14
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Finding out!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. It’s in early stages still but we have picked out names!
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I miss you ladies so much. Honestly I don’t know what I would’ve done without you all! I’m constantly creeping on you and praying to see you all in the grad threads ❤️!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Sept18 - May19
*How far along are you? 11 weeks 4 days
*Which birth month board/due date? Jan BMB DD of 1/22/2020
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Finding out
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Nothing yet. Waiting until we find out the sex(es) before working on it.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? Had an mfm consult appt on Friday and we were VERY surprised to learn we are expecting twins. It was unexpected as we had had two previous scans showing only one baby. I’m feeling all the things, but mostly terrified right now. I was so so happy to see the successful pee party and hope to see everyone move on soon! I’m still lurking daily and miss interacting with you all every day ❤️.
So happy to hear everything is going great for you both & holy smokes, TWINS!!! @kbrown2385@brookert615

@b_1029 dh and I are still in shock mode so I’m sure we will get to excited at some point. I was up at 3am the other day with anxiety about money and researching 🤦🏻♀️. It’s hard to wrap my brain around it.
@puppylove8910 holy smokes is right 😬. I said something to the same effect during the ultrasound.
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? February 2018 (ish) to May 2019
*How far along are you? 12 weeks
*Which birth month board/due date? January 2020 / Jan 18th
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team Finding Out
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. No progress on this front, but we'll probably get more serious when we find out the sex.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? We are going to announce today!!! I have an ultrasound this afternoon and as long as everything looks good, we'll announce on social media this evening. Hopefully no hiding babies will be found.
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Mar 18 to Feb 19
*How far along are you? 25wks on Wed
*Which birth month board/due date? Oct 19
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Name is 100% finalized and everyone calls her by that now ❤
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I really can't beleive I'm in the end half here. 3rd tri is only a few weeks away. PGAL brain still rears its head once in a while but overall I have accepted that she will be here in a few short months. The housing situation is still in the air but we have an offer in on one I adore so if all of you could also cross your fingers, I would greatly appreciate it!!
Sending you all the BFP vibes and lurking (maybe a little too much, I mean, I knew how that post was going to go over.....) while anxiously awaiting some epic grad events!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? 8 months. May 2018-Jan 2019
*How far along are you? 29w5d (aka too far with no prep for a baby coming in 2mo)
*Which birth month board/due date? September 2019...tho we just went to a PG
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team Pink!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Nah, we got nothing. I’m pretty dead set on Jane as her middle name and DH has finally, begrudgingly, reluctantly agreed...I think.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? We have some electrical work scheduled in a couple weeks in Baby Girl’s room along with the remaining bedrooms (why they built our house with no lights in the ceiling is beyond me...), and then the painters will be scheduled for after that...so I guess progress has kinda been made in preparation for a baby? And we picked out a paint color! Lol, I’m banking on this kid coming precisely on time because I have a buttload of things to cram in.
Also, I’m sorry that you guys are dealing with someone who can’t do math this week. Many hugs for all my TTGP friends. ❤️
@kbrown2385 holy crap, TWINS?!?!!!!! That's so amazing!!!
@brookert615 I bet hearing that heartbeat on Friday was music to your ears!!!

*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I've been in Europe for the last 2 weeks during the heat wave (100F + super humid). Having nausea and no A/C was pure hell. We slept like crap, were hot and sweaty all the time, I was so, so ready to be home after a few days. Our trip was just bad timing. I need to catch up on TTGP now!

@rikiteacup I’ve been thinking about you and am so glad to hear everything is going well! (except the crappy weather on your trip which sounds so awful)

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.
