I can kind of see where you're coming from and i'm sorry for all you've been through too xx

Its just I find it a bit sad that not only have WE lost our innocence but also others who know us even if they mean well and don't want to see us hurt, I still sometimes think we should be allowed to expect or at least fully hope for a great outcome. I'm not sure if that makes sense? I guess I just would like people to be optimistic with us when we announce?

Hi mommas!  I'm so glad to be here!  This will be baby #2 for us, due around Nov. 1st.  We have a beautiful DD that is 3 right now. So  I, too, have not been on MDC in quite awhile!  Glad to be back!!  We have been TTC since August of last year, and were estatic to see a positive test!  Not a ton of symptoms as of yet, definitely tired, heightened sense of smell and hungry quite often.  yummy.gif   Since finding out last week I have been in overdrive mode!  I am a chiropractor who owns my own business so I feel the pressure is on to have all of my ducks in a row and everything organized before baby comes!  I know it seems like November is so far away but if it's anything like my 1st pregnancy, it'll be here before we know it!  Cheers to healthy happy pregnancies all around!

Hello all!  I was hesitant to join in but you all are just so lovely and it's so comforting to hear so many of my own thoughts/fears/joys echoed in your posts so here goes.....

 

I'm Sarah, mother to two sweet girls, Big C 5 /12 and Little C 2 1/2.  We are excited to be pregnant but a little nervous due to past experiences.  I think my due date is either Nov. 8 or Nov. 12.  And some days I feel so GOOD b/c I feel pregnant but not overly sick and tired (which in my unscientific opinion must mean it's a boy-so different than my other pregnancies) and other days (of the whole 6 that I've known I was pregnant) I'm really nervous and freaked out.  More peaceful than freaked out, in general.  So that's good, I guess!

 

Last summer, I had an ectopic that ended in a rupture and surgery.  All went as well as anyone could hope for in that situation but I've found it to be quite a traumatizing and stressful thing to move past!  So, here we are, hoping for the best!  And I'm so with any/all of you who have expressed how hard this waiting in the early days is.  I really struggle with it!  I think by 6 or 7 weeks I can go in for an ultrasound and get confirmation that it is in the right place.  

 

So, I'm really glad to be here.  And looking forward to staying here this time!

Hi Sarah, We are definitely so glad that you joined us.

My stepsister had an eptopic/burst fallopian tube a few years back. She went on to have two healthy, wonderful sweet hearts. I hope the same for you!

Hi. I just found out I'm pregnant with number 4. We have a 7.5 yo boy, a 5.5 yo girl and a 2.5 yo boy. Hoping for another girl, cause our little miss is dying for a sister! I'm due November 10. So far no symptoms, I'm sure that will change soon. For some reason, I have no desire to tell anyone about this baby. But I doubt I'll keep the secret long, I get big fast! I have some pics of me 4 months preg with my dd in which I am bigger than some full term moms I know! Lol. Hoping for another uneventful pregnancy and home birth...

Hi all :) I'm Jocie! This will be my first!! I'm so excited, but hesitant to be excited because we've had a little trouble TTC. Almost a year trying and finally a BFP on a digi this morning! I had a couple positive wondfos two days ago. I'm 11 DPO so I'm thinking its a great sign that I had a digi positive :) I'm glad to have been in the TWW thread because it lets me know that pretty much everyone on here is so positive and kind! I just called my doctor to see if I can get in for betas so we will see how that goes. I don't want to bill it to insurance because, even though I am married, I am still allowed to be on my dad's insurance and I don't want to tell them yet until things are more official. Sooo if anyone knows how much beta testing without insurance would cost, you sure would set my mind at ease! I'm so excited to meet you all and see your beautiful babies in 9 months!

Hello and congrats to everyone! We just found out that we're expecting baby number four!! This little one is sort of a Valentine's surprise. ;)

It looks like I'm due around the second week of November. Right now I'm feeling great, just a little tired and trying to best handle ds2 nursing day and night. Looking forward to sharing this experience with all of you and hoping we all have a happy and healthy nine months!

Love hearing about everyone!

Hi everyone!

My name is Echo, and we found out we are due for number four! I'm due anywhere from Oct 29-Nov 13... we are just going with "early November" :) 

 

We have an eight year old boy, 5 year old boy and a 1 year old boy 

 

This pregnancy was kinda a shock. Hubby had wanted another baby but I'm in doula training, so I wanted to wait a bit. We had a very traumatic February (my best friend lost two of her daughters in a horrible fire) and I just wasn't paying attention to my charts. I'm hoping this baby and pregnancy can be healing for everyone.

Hi, ladies!!  I can't believe I'm in here....  BFP this morning, 2 days before expected AF.  I'll retest on Sunday if it doesn't come just in case, but I don't know that there's any mistaking this:

 

I haven't told DH yet.  As far as he knows, we're gonna test on Sunday for the first time.  But I just wanted a few days to savor this all by myself (and with my MDC sisters, of course)!!  This is our first attempt even for our first child so w*o*w.  Um, I'm 33, livin in Texas, already got a lot of decisions made.  We've picked a midwife and birth center, and we already know how/when we're going to announce to various groups of people.  I've even designed announcements!

 

No, I don't have baby fever at all.  Sheepish.gif
