Making a bit of a late intro here... Due 7/29 with #3! DD1 is 4 and DD2 is 1.5. I was pretty active on TB and TCF with prior pregnancies and looking forward to participating here a lot too Are you as scared of three kids as I am?! I’m hoping it’s not the one to put me over the edge. TERRIFIED!! But the timing will be perfect... DD1 will start Kindergarten in September so we will never have all three in daycare. Both DD1 and DD2 have been amazing and I just waiting for #3 to be the trouble baby...

Hi can I join?
I just got a + last night... I have a 4 DS and 18 mo DD, edd is prob around aug 6.
*trigger warning for IF mamas or if you’ve been trying for a long time*
I am a little floored, though it’s not 100% unexpected. My #2 is 18 mos and I was still on the minipill. We were planning on trying for #3 in spring anyway so we weren’t being super compliant/worried about it... so it’s only a surprise pregnancy in that we weren’t really trying yet and it’s a couple months earlier than we were planning. We’ll have about the same gap between 2-3 as 1-2, just a couple months less, but I’m freaking out a little, though I’m also excited, about having 3.
Sorry if this is hard for anyone to read - I know I’m SUPER lucky and blessed that we’ve been able to conceive pretty easily with all my kids. Though holding on is another story since I’ve lost two (#2 is my rainbow) so juggling a little pgal fear too.
Anyway, hi everybody!

Hi! I'm going to tentatively jump in here. I got a positive test a couple days before Thanksgiving. We are reeling a bit because I had an IUD. I'm almost embarrassed to say this, but this is my second IUD failure resulting in pregnancy. The first time it happened it had moved and was too low, and the same thing happened this time. So, apparently it's me and not a freak thing that happened. We are happy and had been talking about trying for another baby next year.
Anyway, I'm around 5 weeks along. Had an ultrasound this past Thursday and everything looked fine. They were concerned it could be ectopic, so it was a relief to find out that is not the case. No due date yet. It was too early to tell on my scan last week (no fetal pole, just a yolk sac) and I'm a dummy who can't remember the date of my period in October. My best guess is early-ish August.
We have a four year old DD and a 21 month old DS. I look forward to getting to know some new "faces"!

elodin hello and welcome! This is our second birth control fail baby too 😬🤦♀️ cannot wait to schedule my husband's vasectomy! It took us a year and a half to get pregnant the first time. Bodies are weird.

Hi Ladies!
I got a positive test yesterday so I am jumping in! This was our first cycle trying so I am shocked but excited to be pregnant. I’m due 8/14 per LMP. This is my 2nd pregnancy. I have one son, O, who turned 2 last month. O was born via c section due to being breech. I am not sure if we are going to do a RCS but if we did it would be a week earlier. I am active on my N16 BMB and look forward to getting to know all of you as well!

Hi everyone! I used to post a little on the previous forum but have just been lurking since the switch to HIH. Hoping to jump in now.
I got a BFP 2 days ago. EDD of 8/17. I have a 4 year old DS and my fiancé’s 15 year old DS also lives with us. I’m feeling both very excited and a little terrified for this new addition to the family. We are also planning to get married in Oct or Nov so lots of changes headed our way.

friendofdobby Congratulations! I have a 4 year old at home too (she'll be 5 in a month). How does your DS feel about the idea of a baby? I'm not planning on telling DD until we're past the AS but she is very vocal about NOT wanting siblings. So this should be interesting.

sammysam I’m really not quite sure how DS will take to the news. We will probably wait until we know the sex to tell him as well. Kids are so funny how they can be so adamant and opinionated about things.

Hi. Looks like I go here now! I got faint lines today on as many tests as I could pee on!
I mostly play on F17. I have 2 boys and we are excited about #3!

I played cello growing up. Now I play mostly guitar and dabble in bass, mandolin, and ukulele. I’m also a hymnody nerd.

Hi, I quit the boards earlier this year but with this BFP I'm thinking I might like having another group like my BMB for DD. We've guessed my EDD at August 21st, 4 weeks. We found out with DD at 5 weeks so DH isn't used to the pale lines. 3 BFPs and he's still asking me to take more tests. ETA: I was just playing with an EDD calculator. Realistically, it's within the 21st-29th range... So basically I don't actually know. DD is 20 months old (March 2017) and all she understands is that when she points at my tummy and says "Baby!" I say yes. She started doing this because my sister is pregnant -- her EDD is today!! -- and we taught her where her baby cousin resides for now. We shall see how much she understands beyond that.

Hi! I'm a bit of a different situation, but I like having a place to talk pregnancy/make new friends!
I'm a surrogate for my sister and BIL. Donor eggs since my sister had cancer and apparently it's illegal in Canada to use your own eggs. This was FET #3, day 6 transfer of a 5day embryo. Due August 21st. Early miscarriage on FET2 so we're all cautiously optimistic this time.
I've got two boys of my own, oldest is Feb13 and youngest is July15. Plus 2 pups and 2 cats. My boys don't know I'm pregnant yet, but we've told them I will be having a baby for their aunt/uncle and they're thrilled (as long as the baby doesn't live with us, they were both very clear they do not want another brother or sister). H is supportive of this all, and my parents have already been the biggest help ever with watching my guys for appointments so I'm sure they'll continue to be a huge help.

Hi all! Ducking in here for a quick intro.
So I just got my bfp (whaaaat) and am figuring I am due in late August, which puts me at around 4 whole weeks pregnant. If all goes well, it will be baby #4...I have two girls, 7 and 5, and a boy, 3. I was a longtime member at TB and then followed the masses around proboards and look forward to getting to know you ladies!

Hey everyone, so I found out last week that I am pregnant with my third, EDD Aug 26. I am excited, but cautiously so. (I have two boys 6 years and 10 months). I've been through a lot and have experienced multiple losses and three ectopic pregnancies, I lost one of my tubes to my first one. From the second it was discovered that I had a pregnancy related immune disorder, which thankfully cleared up since my DS2 was born. In the time between having DS1 and DS2 we underwent several treatments for infertility as well. Fast forward to now, after taking the HPT I went in to the lab to get betas drawn before telling lefty. Lo and behold my betas had a great doubling time. I am a bit in shock that this happened so soon since it took 5 Years for our second (after basically being told I needed donor eggs). Its funny, after finding out I was expecting DS2 I saw rainbows everywhere for days. This time, the same day, I also saw about 4 rainbows the same day. I'll take it as a good sign
