My name is Micha and my husband of 10yrs and I are expecting baby bean #2 around 4/21/13.
If all goes as planned, this little one will be born at our local freestanding birth center where my DS was born in 8/09.

We live in sunny AZ (though hope we can move back up to the Pacific Northwest someday). I stay at home with my DS and have a photography business as well, westlightphotography.com

Congrats to all! I am looking forward to getting to know you ladies!

WOW, Mama!!!  Congrats on the triplets!  To say it was a shock I'm sure is putting it mildly, I'm sure!

Hi Guys,

 

I've been loitering since the very beginning of this DDC but was a bit nervous to join due to lots of spotting and low progesterone.  Had a reassuring scan on Friday though so here I am.

 

 

  • EDD  Officially April 1, I've had one child at 28 weeks, one on due date and one two weeks after due date, so it's anyone's guess when number 4 will actually arrive!
  • Your Name: Anna
  • Age: 36
  • State or Country: New Zealand
  • How long it took to you to get your BFP: This was our second round of IVF using my partner Leah's egg.
  • What number child is this for you: 4
  • Family Leah partner since 1996, DS 12, DS 8, DD 4
  • Baby's Gender (hopes or guesses): I'm running with girl, Leah thinks it's a boy...
  • Birth Plans/Preferences: My first was a CS, Miss 4 was a ventouse VBAC and I'd like another VBAC if that's how things go

  • EDD (feel free to use beginning/middle/end of month, if you prefer) End of April Beginning of May (Hoping for April though I've always wanted an April baby lol. However my last went over a week overdue so I'm guessing it'll be pushing it if it does happen in April lol.

  • How long it took to you to get your BFP: Um. Well. We weren't trying. This is an unexpected blessing for us...well I mean...we weren't using protection every.single.time. But my husband was done and I was really thinking if I had any more it'd be later lol...so anyway...the day after my period was late I got a blaringly bright BFP
  • What number child is this for you: Number SIX
  • Family (partner, other children, and/or furbabies): Josh is my husband 11 years as of last Saturday (the 18th of Aug)...Older children in order are Emma (10) Elzie (8) Gretchen (6) Olive (almost 4) Rogan (15 months)...two outside dogs Finley and Bernard

  • Birth Plans/Preferences: Home birth!!!!! We've had one homebirth (rogan) and one birth center birth (olive) this will be a repeat HB!

I guess I'm joining. I just got my bfp and I'm due the end of April. I'm 30 and this will be our third child if all goes well. I've had 2 losses and a chemical pregnancy since my second child was born.
