Hey hey...making a late-ish intro here. I've lurked some and wanted to come out and say hi.
I'm pregnant with my third (4th pg) and due Sept. 6th. I'll be 12w tomorrow. I am AMA, and the blood test showed a healthy girl! I have two DSs, they're 4 and 2 I'm pretty active with my S15 group, we migrated to FB from TCF.
TWs (loss and ambivalence):
My first pg ended in a MMC and D&C at 11w. Was luckily pregnant with DS1 soon after. When I found out back in January about being pg again, we had pretty much decided we were two and through. I realize that it took many of you a lot to get here, so I know what an asshole I sound like when I say this...but we were really upset and panicked about having a third. So there's still a lot I'm processing, and I still struggle with things like being congratulated, and telling my online and IRL friends who are having trouble TTC.
So...that's where I am. I was waiting to intro here until I was in a better head space about the pregnancy, which I am now. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Welcome! It's a huge adjustment to add unexpectedly to your family! It's ok to feel your feelings. Heck, I was TTC and still freaked out!
Edited - I quickly felt like maybe I was disrespecting your feelings about being congratulated. My apologies 😊

getdownplease welcome and I’m sorry for your past loss. Your feelings do not make you sound like an asshole at all. Family size is a very personal thing. Glad you’re here.

Welcome!
This LO is our 2nd and while we planned to start trying later this year this pregnancy was a surprise. Not quite the same as 2 to an unplanned 3rd, but I would imagine similar feelings and thoughts. It's ok to be shocked, uncertain, not totally over the moon about it immediately, etc. Everyone has a different journey and I feel it's possible to be respectful of what others may have gone through while still being honest about your feelings. That's what I tried to do when I intro'd here and I feel like your intro has done the same.
I'm glad you're feeling better about the pregnancy and decided you joined us!

Welcome!!! Pregnancy is such a huge life changer that it totally makes sense to feel all kinds of ways about it. No judging here! So exciting that you’re having a girl — I think you’re the first in our group to find out the gender!

Welcome and congrats on the baby girl!
We will actively trying and I’m still in shock and super nervous about juggling everything. I’m really learning that it’s ok to feel all of this at once. Take time to process it all!
