Current pregnancy - First BFP on 1/4/22. Due date 9/13/22.
Four prior losses, no living children - 1 first trimester miscarriage, 1 blighted ovum, 1 chemical, and one extreme premature live birth daughter who died at 15 days old.
I hate waiting in the car line for school pick up. With a passion. There is so much that goes into this but I’ll just leave it at this since I’m sure my feelings are probably shared.
Currently in a training for work. It is SO. BORING. I've had classes with this trainer before (through Microsoft Teams) and he's one of those people who thinks they're super funny but totally aren't. And he's using a lot of the same activities as he did in the last training with him. Ugh.

I had a big chick fil a salad, Mac and cheese, and fries with a large Diet Coke for lunch yesterday and ate a Crunchwrap with a large cherry pepsi today. I’m out of control 🤣 i have had the last 2 days off because my kid got exposed to COVID so daycare shutdown for the week. Being home with a 2 year old all day is a lot haha!!
We were supposed to have a half day of professional development, instead we were given an hour online module on signs of suicide, and the rest of the time to grade and prep. I'm pretty excited about it.
Today’s win - found the heartbeat on a Doppler!! My favorite kind of hide and seek hahaha I didn’t realize it would be so hard! It’s like you have to have the wand in the absolute perfectly right spot
Ya'll. I just got a handwritten letter in the mail from a JW. Apparently in the days of COVID they're now witnessing through the mail.
I guess that's better than having to chase them away from my door...

Haha, yes! I've been getting them every 6 months or so since the pandemic started. Whoever it is in our neighborhood, they have much better handwriting than I do and they clearly don't have my carpal tunnel issues - I couldn't write that many letters, even if I wanted to!
First time mom-to-be, due 9/25/22
Some complicated chromosomal stuff going on - our fingers are crossed, but this may not go according to plan!
@kboydbowman for about 2.minutes I was trying to figure out was JW was in terms of your job before finishing reading your post.... My head went to jail wife, and then when you said witnessing through the mail I was thinking that they got married through the mail.... It might be early here.

I’m pretty sure I found the heartbeat with my sis in law’s Doppler last night. My husband and I were both like “yep that’s it!” But the reading on the machine said 30. There’s no way it was 30 - it was the typical fast “ whoosha whoosha” I’ve heard with my other pregnancies…
(Once again, data is primarily gathered from the introductions and ultrasounds posts, with occasional additions from the weekly updates thread).
1) We currently have 85 women who are active in this board. "Active" in this case being defined as having posted within the past two weeks. Of our active ladies,
1 is due in late August (but expects to run into September)
18 are due in the first week of September (9/1-9/7)
20 are due in the second week of September (9/8-9/15)
23 are due in the third week of September (9/16-9/22)
22 are due in the last week of September (9/23-9/30)
1 has an unknown due date
2) In terms of age, of our active ladies,
1 is under 25
15 are age 25-29
32 are age 30-34
6 are age 35-39
5 are 40 and over
26 have not disclosed their age
3) What baby number is it for our active ladies?
For 48 of us, it's the first baby.
For 15 of us, it's the second baby.
For 16 of us, it's the third or more baby.
For 6 of us, this data is unknown.
4) Where are our active ladies?

So far we have no ladies who have reported their location as the Southwest (e.g., AZ, NV), Applachia (e.g., KY, TN) or non-continental states (HI, AK)
6) For gender, so far...
13 mamas have announced for team blue
5 mamas has officially announced for team pink
9 mamas have reported they plan to be team green
*Note that these tallies indicate specific usernames who have stated explicitly the gender of their baby(ies) - this does not encapsulate the total courts on the "I'm Just Here for the SEX" post, which are higher.
7) So far, only one of our active ladies has reported they are having twins (but we do have some inactive ladies with multiples as well).
8) Other factoids:
We have 39 women who have posted more than 2 weeks ago but less than a month ago (11 of these have only posted once).
We have 108 women who have posted more than a month ago (47 of these only posted once).
We have unfortunately also had 8 women who have left us following confirmed losses.
We have 4 women who previously posted but have since deleted their accounts.
We have 1 woman who has since relocated to the October board.
If you don't think I'm accounting for your data (or you want to check), let me know and I'll update my spreadsheet.

@JRae2015 yeah, my Doppler was reading low too. Not as low as yours but it said like 125 when I know for a fact that it sounded like how it did at the doctor last week when it was 160+. I’m chalking it up to just not being medical grade and the heart still being itty bitty! I know bébé is a-okay!
@jhysmath the VT person is not currently active (has not posted within the past 2 weeks); same with the CT and the other MA person. Right now the NE is represented by one from MA and two from NH. If the others become active again, they'll be re-included in my data.

Just adding a tip to the ftms... Add everything you're buying to your baby registry, many things count to the diaper discount and the 20% off diapers for a year is great, especially when you can combine with other discounts. I use disposables at night mostly so I don't buy often, but I think I paid less than $20/box for the Amazon diapers and that gets me through 3 months.

I don't care for Idina Menzel. 🙊

@kboydbowman I think you're missing a couple from north east people. I think we have 2 from nh, 2 from vt, and 1 from MA.
