Hello Ladies! I’m excited to join you all. I have a 5.5 year old DD and we’ve been trying for this one for 4 years and 1 month. We had all but given up on this happening and I was planning on getting rid of all of our stuff from when DD was little.
I’m looking forward to getting to know all of you. I was on here for my DDs bmb in 2014 and am still close with many of those moms and hope to have something similar with you all.
Eta- I updated my profile name and it’s not updating on this post. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Hello! I used to be semi-active on the TTGP board, but had to take a mental health break (plus, my laptop is busted). I’m diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve and was refused care by two different infertility specialists. Somehow, it happened anyway! I was a couple days late, so I took a test and there was absolutely no mistaking the line. According to my LMP, I’m right at 5 weeks. First pregnancy that I’m aware of. Husband and I are both 35 and currently furloughed by our company. My first prenatal appointment is May 13.
Hello everyone! My name is Sierra and I just barely made it onto the December board - based on ovulation date my due date is December 31! I just found out yesterday that I am pregnant for the second time. My first is now a 27 month old boy so we figured it was time to give him a sibling! I am only 3w4d so it is still very early for me, but I am trying to be cautiously optimistic! My last Baby Month Board was J18 and those ladies are just wonderful - I’m looking forward to getting to know you all as well!
@dreamscapes_ welcome! I was diagnosed with low ovarian reserve as well, and was given a 3% chance to conceive naturally...and here we are for the 2nd time

Hi everyone, happy to be here, but still a little bit in shock that I'm here so soon. I just found out I'm pregnant and couple of hours ago and still freaking out some (ok, a lot). My EDD is December 29th, so here's hoping everything goes better this time. This is my second pregnancy, but will hopefully be our first child. We lost the first pregnancy this past December, so I keep oscillating between excitement and abject fear.
Hello! Second time mama here. Still feel more like one week late than 5 weeks pregnant (due date Dec 19). But with my first I was mostly just exhausted the first trimester. My daughter’s 25 months old and I lurked on WTE boards, but I’ve heard good things about the Bump :)
With my first my blood pressure went up around 37 weeks. I went into labor on my own at 39 weeks 3 days and gave birth right before my scheduled induction. I did develop preeclampsia while in labor, but things were moving quick enough they could treat me afterward. This time around I’m looking to take baby aspirin to help reduce my risk of developing high blood pressure or being induced early.
Anyone had any success with baby aspirin and blood pressure while pregnant?
Hello Mama’s and congratulations to you all! My name is Mindy and I’m Canadian. I live just outside of Vancouver B.C. I’m so thrilled and over the moon to be here. Just got my BFP this weekend. I’m 4 weeks and 5 days pregnant. This will be my first baby but this is my second pregnancy. I had an early Miscarriage at 7 weeks with my first last Nov and now I’m finally here. I’m excited but scared, so I’m hoping this will be my rainbow baby 🌈. Trying to be positive and optimistic for this pregnancy. My EDD is Dec. 22nd.. Right before Christmas yay! 🥰
I have 1 step daughter who is 10 and will be soo excited to find out once we tell her. I can’t wait!! My husband and I are both 37. I’m really looking forward to getting to know you all better.
Hello, just found out I am pregnant with my 4th... This was a bit of a surprise and my husband and I are feeling quite nervous. Based on my LMP I am due December 21st, but I always go about a week late. Exactly 5 weeks today. I have a 7 year old boy, a 5 year old girl and a 2 year old girl.
Hello everyone! My EDD is actually Jan 1, but 1. I'd be all by myself right now! and 2. I know already I will be delivering between 37 and 38 weeks. So that puts me more like mid December! This is my fifth pregnancy, and hopefully second living child. We have been TTC since Jan 2018. I had been seeing a RE, but my treatments were put on hold due to Corona Virus.... and boom. BFP! I am a financial advisor, DH is an engineer. We have one son, who is will be four this summer. He's a bright vibrant little guy. We have 4 (!) cats and a corgi, and live in a very very small town in Vermont.
Hoping I get to stay in this board - stick little bean stick!
Hello and congratulations to everyone! I am pregnant with our surprise baby number 4! When this little sweetie arrives I will have an 8 year old son, and 6 and 4 year old daughters:) Based on my LMP I thought my EDD was 11/27, but I ovulated late this cycle and at my ultrasound this morning I was measuring 7 weeks 1 day. My new EDD is 12/7! I was definitely shocked when I got my BFP a few weeks ago as we were not planning on a 4th baby. I am now excited and hoping for a healthy 9 months. I have had high blood pressure issues beginning towards the end of the second trimester with all three of my previous pregnancies and in my last two pregnancies my water broke at 36 1/2 and 37 1/2 week. So I think that while my due date makes me a December Mama, I will most likely deliver in November.
Hi! Im new here...hope I’m doing this right. :# Found out I was pregnant 3 days ago with #3–due 12/31 according to LMP. I have two sons, ages 8 and 4. I’m so excited but also anxious in light of all that’s going on right now.
Hello! I'm due with a rainbow baby on Dec 7th! This pregnancy has been incredibly nerve-wracking, but I went in for the heartbeat ultrasound yesterday and baby has a strong heartbeat! EDD could move up to Dec 5 based on the measurements they took. Very excited to be a first time mama! Worried I don't have enough morning sickness, as that's what went away when I miscarried, but very hopeful this pregnancy will be a success!
@elangenfeld welcome! I've never had nausea with ANY pregnancy so try not to let that bug you out too much, yay for a good scan and FX for the next one!
Hi everyone! My husband and I already have one child who is 14 months. Call me crazy but we have been trying to conceive for 6 months and I was very excited when I got my BFP! My due date is further out at 12/27. We are so excited for this journey to begin.
Also I was very active on my February 2019 group. Looking forward to this group too!
Hi Everyone! My name is Lindsay and I am currently expecting my 3rd child!! I have two boys 3 years 4 mo. and 1 year 9 mo. My Due date is December 18th. My oldest was born December 21st... so we will see if they share a birthday! I am currently 5 weeks and 5 days. I am feeling very sick. I feel like I just ate something horrible all day long. This is new for me with my boys I did not get any kind of sickness. I am also very tired! anyone else just wanna take a nap? I look forward to meeting all you ladies
Hi everyone! I found out about two weeks ago that I'm pregnant with my third. I have two kids from my previous marriage (9 and 6), and it's crazy for me to be going through it again! We had a loss back in October, and I'm 39. My son was also a 26-weeker. All those things mean it's going to be a bit of a scary journey, but I'm starting to get a bit more excited! Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Hi! I just got my BFP for baby number 1 yesterday. I am nervous as we had a missed missacarage 18 months ago but also extremely excited! Due date is currently 31st december 😬. Looking forward to being apart of this communty, hopefully ill be able to stick around this time
Hello all!! Congrats on the bundles!! First time mom here. Got out BFP on March 22nd. 8 weeks today. Had our first appointment Friday and found out we have twins baking in the oven. Definitely a surprise for my husband and I. However I'm counting my blessings as I was told for 10 years that I shouldn't/couldn't have children. We cant wait to get thru the first trimester, praying that the severe all day nausea/vomiting subsides soon.
@feather_heather so excited for you. We had an early scan at 7w1d and although I was a little sad I couldnt hear the hearts, seeing the 2 flutters on the screen melted my heart.
@mindyb2019 thank you. It was a huge surprise that took some time to process. I was finally adjusting to "we are having A baby." As soon as the tech started the US I knew. We are both excited to bring home 2 babies at the end of the year. Also, thankful to know why I have been SO SO sick.
Hi Everyone! Very excited for you all and the Joy's we will all be holding in our arms in Decemeber (God willing). This is my first pregnancy and I am so excited and hopeful, I honestly have dreamed of being a mother and previously living in South Africa and working at an orphanage, I never felt so fulfilled in my life. The thought of this little munchkin coming into my life is soooo exciting but I'm 6 weeks and 5 days so I know its early days and trying to be cautious about the excitement. My first prenatal appointment is May 4th...feels so far away. My EDD is Dec 12th! Praying for all you mommas out there!!
Hello Hello! I'm a D'16 vet who had an N'16 baby boy and I'm back for round two! I just got my IUD out in February so I was a bit surprised to see a positive test this morning! My EDD is 12/29 but I'll have a scheduled CS. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone - my previous BMB is still very close.

My sister dealt with HELLP syndrome at 22 weeks back in 2010. She got pregnant again 6 years later and did baby aspirin and blood thinners, for a blood clotting disorder. She made it to 37 weeks before having issues with her blood pressure.
