Hi there! I haven't been all that active on the various boards here but have been lurking a decent amount for the last couple months. I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself, mostly because I have a feeling I'm gonna be in need of some support in the next few months haha. We found out last night that we're (hopefully) expecting our third baby. I am a working mom of 2 kiddos, a 4.5 year old (May 13) and a just over 2 year old (Nov 15, but born in Oct). I try to be as active as I can with my BMBs so I'm hoping I will be able to do so here as well. It came at somewhat of a surprise as we weren't really trying given that we had a MC at 8w in early Nov. I know people say you're more fertile right after, but wow. We're still very very anxious and nervous because even though we now have 2 wonderful children, the road hasn't been easy. Including the last one, we've had 2 MCs and a CP so our batting average isn't so great. I hope this kiddo decides to stick around and I won't be leaving anytime soon! Looking forward to hopefully getting to know all of you

At the moment I'm not getting betas done and I think that's because their standard is to do only do that with recurrent miscarriages. By recurrent they mean 2+ more in succession. They already do a standard dating ultrasound at 6 weeks so I will be going in for that on the 23rd.

flyliceandcoffee That's totally understandable. I've had 2 m/mc's. It's hard. I'm almost in 3rd tri, have 3 take-home babies, and I'm still feeling very anxious. Lots of hugs because PGAL brain can be a real MF.

I too had to look up your screen name - I've totally forgotten what everyone used to go by since we moved to Facebook. I think I'm the only one in the July/Aug '18 group, but glad to see someone close behind 🙂
