@littleliverpill I'm so happy you are here and that we get to go through this experience together! I'm not going to lie, since you posted you were 8dpo I have been stalking you waiting on an update.
Helllloooooo I'm coming over from GKU and so happy to hang out with you here!
About me: MH and I have been trying since February for our first. It was a long time getting to this decision as he's always been wary of starting a family. But we decided to give it a go and here we are! We live in CO, but I'm originally from AZ and he's from VA. We have a 1.5 year old fur baby (see avatar) that we adore and we love all activities that are outdoors (camping, hiking, disc golf, lawn games, running, the works). I'm also a big nerd that goes to ComiCon and does community theater.
I'm so looking forward to sharing this journey with you!!! EDD 12/9

Hi, I'm Hungryhippo.
I got a BFP on Monday at only 9dpo and got great results on blood work so far. I have a living son, but this is my fourth pregnancy, so I'm very nervous about the possibility of suffering another loss. I know that it hurts equally whether I'm excited or guarded, so I figure I may as well jump in. I'll definitely check out the PGAL check in.
I'm due Dec 13 and my DS is 18 months old. I look forward to getting to know you all and I hope for healthy pregnancies and babies for all.
ETA: for the data people - beta 1 was 58 at 11dpo and beta 2 was 147 at 13dpo. Progesterone was over 40, but I'm taking supplements regardless at my RE's advice.
Hello D15!! I'm migrating over from TTCAL and GKU this was our second cycle trying after a loss. We are cautiously excited. Lots of tears this morning (and a lot of POAS) I'm so happy to be here!

I'm still in disbelief. Not sure how long my stay will be, but I got a BFP last night at 9 dpo! I've been hanging mostly on GKU since the site was formed, which was coincidentally when we started to ttc.
I turned 35 yesterday. I have a daughter, Viv, who will be 3 on May 1. I have a son, Gabriel, who passed away about 30 minutes after his premature birth at 21 weeks in August 2009. This is my 9th pregnancy (mmc, mmc/bo, cervical ectopic, Gabriel, chemical x3, Viv, current). We learned, belatedly, that the cervical ectopic damaged my cervix at the internal os, created non-traditional IC. I began dilating at the internal os, due to the pressure of the pregnancy, and when the partial placenta previa that caused severe/traumatic bleeding) cleared, the amniotic sac slid into the opening caused by the dilation and damage and was caught in the cervix, and eventually broke, causing preterm labor. There was nothing we could do to stop it or save Gabe. With Viv, I had tons of testing before-hand, and saw an OB and a perinatalogist and was very high risk. I had a prophylactic cerclage placed between 12 and 13 weeks and was on severe restriction. I had high blood pressure from about 20w on, which turned into pre-eclampsia late in pregnancy. I was induced at 39w, slept through most of labor and Viv was born healthy and well the following morning.
Presumably, everything will happen the same way this go round (betas, early u/s, MFM and OB cooperative care, preventative cerclage, restrictions, monitoring every 2-3 weeks until third tri, then more frequently. I'm only uncertain because my previous OB moved out of state and I need to get moved onto another doc's active practice and discuss everything. One step at a time right now.
I'm excited and terrified. Right now I'm just trying not to take all the tests because I know the results will be based solely on how concentrated my urine is and not any real substantive changes in hcg and I don't need to freak myself out if I get a lighter line. I hope I (and we all) are here for a good, long stay. I'm bemused, but thrilled to be here. I apologize for how disjointed this must be. I'm still just kind of stunned. We really didn't think that this screwy cycle was going to work at all. I was about to sign up for a dietbet.
Good to see you here anonymouseliza! I'm so sorry about your previous losses and your difficult pregnancies. Hopefully this will be a successful and happy nine months for you.
Hi I'm excited to be here! I'm 29 dh is 30. We've been ttc since June 2013. I got diagnosed with pcos March 2014 and have been on 1000 mg of metformin. I got pregnant in October '14 and mc at 4w6d in November . I got a bfp (super faint) on Friday at 10 dpo my re had me come in for betas they came back at 12 and progesterone levels good. my betas today at 12 dpo were 54 so almost 5 times doubled, progesteone still looking good. The nurse said they were a bit low but when I told her I was only 10 and 12 dpo at draws she said that made her feel better. I go back on Tuesday before we leave on a camping trip for one more draw. eta my edd is December 15

Hi all! Congrats to everyone so far. I'm threetaboos! I mostly post on my previous bmb's facebook group but do keep up on the PB boards. I'm 24, married and have one DS who just turned 1. This is an unexpected pregnancy and my EDD is 12/14. I love my other BMB and hope to make some great connections here as well.
Hi ladies! I was a little more active when we were all still over on TB, had a little bit of trouble navigating this site when everyone moved over and kind of fell off while we moved into our new home last month! We were TTC for 5 months and definitely did NOT expect this to be our month since our timing was horrible lol but so happy to be here!!
I am 25, my SO is 28. I have a 3 year old daughter that will be 4 in June and SO has a DD that will be 6 in May. SO's daughter lives in Japan full time and visits us during the summer months. We just adopted a puppy 2 weeks ago so this summer is going to be so much fun!
EDD 12/8
ETA--- I'm so excited to see some of you here that I recognize!
I'm Squeeg and just got my BFP this evening. I was on October '15 but sadly found we had a missed miscarriage around 8 weeks. This was our first cycle TTC again after that loss. I am so glad to be here and I'm trying to stay positive.
I have a fabulous 2.5 yo son and a wonderful DH. I am busy studying for my boards which are coming up in less than a month! Eek!
Thanks for having me and I hope I get to stick around.

Hey ladies! I got a BFP this morning! I am active over on July14. I have an almost 9 month old. DH is 37 and I am 29. I have two older step sons also. It looks like my EDD is 12/13.
Hi everyone! I've been lurking around various forums trying to find a good fit since we started TTC in Nov 14, and now that we got our bfp I decided to join here. I'm 25, DH is 34, we've been married since May 14, and I have a 9 year old son. This is our first child together. EDD based on O is 12/9. When my son was a baby, I was active on a forum that really supported me during a difficult time (being a teen mom is rough, go figure) so I am looking forward to joining up here.

Hi! I'm BeachBum and I like warm hugs! Can I come hang out with you ladies?
Got my BFP on Saturday, 12 dpo. EDD is 12/13. Quick rundown, I'm 34 and DH is 42. We've been married 8 years and have one DD already, Josephine, who's 20 months old. Right now, it hasn't really sunk in yet, and my emotions are all over the place: excited, panicked, giddy, nervous. But mostly, I can't wait to be a second time mom!
Looking forward to getting to know everyone in the coming months.
Hi, all! I frequented TB as an O13 mom (although DS ultimately decided to come in September), and I'm excited to join everyone here!
I'm 33, and my H is 32. We've been together 9 years, married for 6 this Sept. DS is Camden, and he's 19 months old.
I got a BFP yesterday after testing negative on Thursday, but I had to wipe my phone last week and I lost all my cycle tracking data, so I'm not sure of my dates. Also, my thinking is not super clear right now, anyway! Ha ha

I have the same due date and an almost 19mo DS.
It seems like a lot of us had July/August/early fall 2013 babies!
