This will be our first baby but we have 3 dogs who think they are children. We had to do IVF, so I’ve had two HCG tests already and then first ultrasound appointment Nov 25. A little tired, a little breast tenderness, other than that feeling good so far. Still in disbelief that it’s finally happening!
Other kids/pets: 2 dogs, one of which is near perfect and the other is a perpetual toddler
First appointment: contacting my doctor on Wednesday at 6 weeks
Symptoms so far: a little wobbly, more common bathroom visits, and hungry
Anything else you want to share: TW! We got pregnant a few months ago which turned into a chemical pregnancy at ~5.5 weeks. Very excited that this time seems different but the anxiety is high
EDD : July 9 We are first timers here! We have one fur baby named Allie! My first appt isn’t until Dec 2 So far my symptoms are mild nausea, pretty much constant tiredness and some mild cramps that really peak my anxiety but everything I’ve read says it’s normal 🤞🏻
Other kids/pets: no human kid yet, one cat and one dog
First appointment: 11/25 and it feels like forever away!
Symptoms so far: I did have some nausea the day before and the day I tested. Then it went away. Now I just have some smell aversions, the occasional cramp(not bad) and bloating
Anything else you want to share: FTM-to-be and couldn’t be happier! I’ve wanted to be a mom my whole life and feeling blessed I’m finally in a place it’s possible.
Symptoms so far: 9 dpo (3 days ago) woke up feeling like I had a bad hangover or the flu (didn’t drink the night prior). Headache, clammy, heart racing. Just felt awful so took a pregmate test and had a faint line. Same day got a positive CB digital and CB early plus sign test. Since then I’ve felt much better just headache and light cramps. Tired! Surprised to get such an early positive and can’t believe I have to wait another few weeks for the appointment and to tell anyone!
Other kids/pets: first time mom to a human but I have two cats who are my world (Pippin and Archie)
First appointment: 11/11 - I’ve had some cramping that’s making my OB (and me) super nervous so she asked me to come in for an appointment. Crossing my fingers that my little bean is ok.
Symptoms so far: mild nausea, cramping on my left side (so scary), tender breasts and an insane craving for hummus that started yesterday
First appointment: Tomorrow! Nov 7, the day before my birthday 🎂
Symptoms so far: nipple soreness/irritation - even my bra is hurting it ugh 😩
Anything else you want to share: After my husband just finished chemotherapy and I was diagnosed with PCOS we thought we wouldn’t have a chance and are so happy to be here! ✨

Anything else you want to share: After my husband just finished chemotherapy and I was diagnosed with PCOS we thought we wouldn’t have a chance and are so happy to be here! ✨
Symptoms so far: nausea, so damn tired, hard to fall asleep, sore nipples but not sore boobs this time which is odd for me. Very sensitive to smells already, unfortunately. Haha.
Anything else you want to share: This is my 7th pregnancy, but will be my 5th baby as I have 4 kids already. It's my last, I'm old!! I'll be 38 yrs old when this baby is born! 🤣
Symptoms so far: I’ve been sleepy earlier than normal this week, but thought it was because of the time change. I feel a little nausea here and there, but it seems a little early for that. Maybe it’s just butterflies.
Anything else you want to share: This is my fourth pregnancy; one boy, one chemical pregnancy, another boy, and now. I’m 38 and will deliver when I’m 39. We thought we were done for years but recently started getting the baby itch the past few months, corresponding with when our youngest finished preschool and started Kinder. I’m shocked it actually happened, since we weren’t zealously trying like we did with our other pregnancies. Feeling excited, nervous, all the things.
Other kids/pets: I have a son who turned 2 recently and a cat!
First appointment: TBD - waiting to hear back from OB
Symptoms so far: My boobs are sore, I’m tired, and I have a little bit of cramping. But so far I don’t feel too bad. I had major food aversions during the 1st trimester with my son, so I’m hoping to avoid that this time around!
Anything else you want to share: I loved my September 2022 bump group! In fact, many of us still chat in a private group 🙂 Hoping to have a great experience in this group as well!
Other kids/pets: 1 one year old Golden Retriever (CC)!
First appointment: My aunt is an OB so she saw me at 4w5d for first check up that included blood work! Numbers looked strong!
Symptoms so far: Sore breasts but other than that feeling great!
Anything else you want to share: This is our first pregnancy! I feel anxious but really excited. I feel like I have phantom cramping sometimes when I overthink how my body is feeling but trying to remind myself that everything is looking great!
We’ve got a lot of FTMs (first time moms) introducing themselves here! Love it. So exciting!

Hi Carmen! I also have four kids, a girl and three boys! One early miscarriage in the middle so this is my sixth pregnancy. I’ll be 36.5 so getting up there
Random queasy feelings and heartburn?, tired, bloated, cramping
Anything else you want to share: I’m afraid to feel too hopeful because I know it’s so early, but I think checking this app for “your baby is the size of a lentil” has quickly become a highlight of my day, haha. I’m so impressed with how quickly these tiny humans grow. It makes sense why we are tired 😅
ps I did try changing my username and it says it is updated but it doesn’t show up.
@knottiebb7add9cf8fe760f I love the size comparisons, too! Our bodies really are working hard in the first trimester. Heartburn and reflux are also super common in pregnancy, so annoying 🙃

i lost two pregnancies last year back to back and after a few months of trying I didn’t even know I was pregnant. Took the test only because I didn’t have my regular period symptoms.
