Hi!

I'm Laura. DH Jay. We're both 30.
Mama to 16 month-old Isaac, still nursing like a champ
EDD 11/05, planning a HB, first MW appt. next Monday.

Let's see, what else...We're living with the in-laws right now, working on our new (to us) house. Can't wait to move in. We haven't told the ILs yet, but I feel like we should since I had a m/c (#2) last November and will be seeing my MW sooner than I would have otherwise. (MIL looks after DS while I work 2 days/week, have appts, etc)

[Mama Bear]

Hello! I am Christine - 26. Been married to my dh for 7 years. We have one little boy - almost 2.5 yrs old (who self-weaned around 2 yrs old). I had a waterbirth with ds and will be planning the same with this one. We are still in shock! But are very excited! I think my edd is 11/4

[lizlett]

Hi. I'm Liz. I have lurked on MDC for a while and I am excited to get in and participate. I am 27, married to Tim, and still nursing Henry (16 months). I just got my positive today and my EDD is 11/3.

I recently moved from the US to Norway and I am a little nervous about going through a pregnancy and birth in a new country, completely different healthcare system, and in a new language.

[mykidsrock]

Name/age: Konny 27, married to Danny 31 for almost 10 years (In May)

Any other children/ages: Danielle is 8, Dominic is 4, Vanessa is 2, and Ava is 1

EDD: Nov 1st- pretty accurate, I KNOW the day I ovulated.

Any other thoughts: I could care less about gender, but I hope for another boy because my son would love a little brother!!
We are planning another UC birth- likely in water again, although I guess it depends where I am when baby starts to come out, lol!!!

[StacieM]

My name is Stacie and I made 30 in December.

I have 4 living children and one angel - ages are in my siggy.

My EDD based on ovulation date is 11/5/07. I just got my "dark enough to convince my husband" BFP yesterday!

Any other thoughts: Wishing everyone here a H&H9! Oh yes and we're hoping for a boy too to even out numbers, but either will be great! Just want to know baby is healthy and happy. We tried for a boy (my chart), but don't plan on finding out gender until birth.

[Momma Aimee]

I just got my "dark enough to convince my husband" BFP yesterday!

still waiting on that here - hopefully tonight to tomorrow

[Dee-Groovy]

Ooh I want to join!

Name: Dee
Age: 31 (32 when I deliver)
Other kids: 0 humans, 2 furbabies
EDD: 11/3

I had 2 early losses back to back in November and December but I have a great feeling about this pregnancy. Should get bloodwork results tomorrow but it's a formality b/c I've been getting DARK lines on HPTs for days!

I'm so excited to be here & hope I get to stay! :

Thoughts-We are very excited!

[LittleBrownDog]

Hi, I'm Leigh, 29 years old (will be 30 in September!) My DD Allison turned 2 in January and we've been TTC since late fall, so I was very excited to get my BFP today!!!! My EDD is sometime in early November- DD just weaned in the last month so my cycle was still a little wonky- Based on a 28 day cycle my EDD would be November 5, but I think I ovulated a little earlier in the month.

DD was born in a hospital, with CNM attending, and it was an all-around good experience. It is a WHO certified Baby Friendly hospital, so all of my wishes (rooming in, breastfeeding, co-sleeping, delayed cord-cutting, etc) were respected and encouraged. We are, however, considering a free-standing birth center this time. We're touring the local one this Wednesday, and they also do home births, so that is still on the table. DH is very resistant to doing anything differently than last time, since it went so well. We'll see!

Cool! We thought we were being all unique, but have meet a couple more kids named "Ellery" since she was born.

[Apryl Srissa]

Count me in! Three faint tests so far, dh still not positive that I'm right though. We already have 3 boys, ages 11, 3 and 1 1/2. So we're kinda hoping girl, but will be happy either way. I'm 30, but will be 31 when this one arrives. My name is Apryl, or Srissa. We are considering a home birth this time around too.

Nice to meet you all!

[amylizpat]

name: Amy, age 30, DH is Eric, age 31

Any other children/ages: Noah (10), Ella (9), and Asa (6 months!!!)

EDD: Nov 6th

Any other thoughts: Just got my BFP this morning. Still is shock! We knew we wanted a 4th, we just didn't expect it this soon. Asa is still nursing like a champ, so I plan on tandem nursing. I'm an at home daycare provider, so this should be a very challenging (but fun) 9 months. Holy crap, we're having another one!
