Wow, I guess I am the first June '06 mama...

[StacyL]

...anyone care to join me?? :LOL

I was due to start my period on Thursday, but woke up feeling funny this morning so I took a pregnancy test and it was..

:+

According to my LMP and a due date calculator, I am due on June 1st.

I am still in a bit of a state of shock! Ds just turned 1 yesterday. I guess Mommy got a birthday present too. :bouncy

Hopefully some other ladies will join this thread soon!

[mamacatsbaby]

:hola: I've actually got a May baby. Just wandered in with one being the loneliest number and all. Congrats on your PG mama! :D

[eorr]

I think I'm a May one as well, but wanted to say congrats!!! And come over to May for a visit if you get lonely. . . :wink

[Outofmymindyo]

Well, I should be a June mama too, so I'll be hangin around these here parts too.

[StacyL]

Yes, maybe I should hang out for awhile on the May thread until June gets going. You never know, the baby could end up coming in May!

[my5girls]

Lurking from February...Congratulations!!! :p

[JennInSeattle]

Tested positive this morning - I won't consider myself a June mom for another 3 months but I'll sit here with you for a while. :love Due June 3rd.. :)

[De-lovely]

Awwww-just dropped in say CONGRATS JENN!!!!



And of course to all you other June mamas!

[JennInSeattle]

Aww, that is just SO sweet!! Thank you! Pregnancy hormones have me feeling all teary, thank you! :hug

[MamaTaraX]

Lurking by from Jan '06. Wow, I didn't even think it was possible to get pregnant with a June '06 baby yet! That's super cool! Heck, I can't even believe the May ones still :) CONGRALATIONS!!!!!!

Namaste, Tara
mama to Doodle (7), Butterfly (2), and Rythm (due at home 1/06)

[StacyL]

Woo hoo! Another June mama..Congratulations Jenn! :banana :carrot :broc:

[Spark]

Congrats to all!

Jenn, :love sending you warm :sticky: healthy baby vibes. Focusing on a sweet and lovely June birth for you!

[Nature]

Lurking from the January ddc, just wanted to say Congratulations!!! :jumpers:

[cammiesmom]

Hi I tested + x4(lol) on the 21.EDD June 3

[MyLittleWonders]

Well, if the test I took this morning was correct, :wink , I'm a June 3rd-to-be-again Mama! :D

Any pregnant and still nursing mamas out there?

And Jenn, I am overjoyed!!! I will be praying for you!

[JennInSeattle]

Tara - I know! Where does the time go? I hope it keeps flying and you'll be holding your new little one soon (but not too soon ;) ). :love

Thanks Stacey! I would absolutely love to be a June mom!! :) I love that you stopped in!

Welcome Heather! I've now tested 5 times myself since the 21st! And I'm not usually a compulsive tester either! It's great to have you and Congratulations!

WitchyMama2 and MyLittleWonders - I can't think of your names. :innocent I really love to talk to people by their real first names - it's so much more personal.. but anyway.

W.Mama2 - Congratulations on your little girl!! I bet January can't come soon enough! It's great to see you again!!

MyLittleWonders - Thank you so much for the prayers - I know that the Lord's will be done but I can't help but hope it will be a healthy 9lb baby born this time! :throb

Congratulations on your own :+ - I will praying for you too! And I'm still nursing Nathan. :)

[JLav]

Jenn...I just wanted to come by and say Congratulations again! I'm so happy and hopeful for you! ((( :sticky )))

[JennInSeattle]

Aww, thanks Jessica - I'm trying to think of an original way to say how much it means to have you say that but I keep repeating myself from the above posts. :innocent

I know we've gone though a lot together in the past few months and I can't help but feel close to you. I'm praying for you, thank you so much for supporting me. I was actually hoping you were joining this thread but it pretty quickly occurred to me that the timing wasn't right but I couldn't help but hope! lol Thank you for coming and just being so great about this - ttc after loss is so hard and being pg after loss is hard too. It means a lot! :hug

[spero]

Popping in to say CONGRATULATIONS, Stacy! What blessed news!

[MyLittleWonders]

WitchyMama2 and MyLittleWonders - I can't think of your names. :innocent I really love to talk to people by their real first names - it's so much more personal.. but anyway.
And I'm still nursing Nathan. :)

Hey Jenn ... no problem. It had been in my siggy for quite a while, but I got into simplifying, which included my siggy line for a while. I went ahead and changed it though. :)

How often is Nathan nursing now? I think he's just a little older than Aaron - my second. Even though there are times I'm annoyed with what seems to be incessant nursing (especially at night), I'm hoping that he is able to nurse throughout my pregnancy (hoping it truly is a positive pregnancy ... I always feel better once I get to my ob). He definitely doesn't seem to have any interest in weaning himself anytime soon, so I'm hoping he doesn't end up weaning because of issues with milk supplies during pregnancy (I'm also hoping my ob is cool with continuing to nurse. I have had one m/c, but it seems like it was something completely out of my control, and that was before Aaron, so hopefully she won't see any reason to need to wean).

[StacyL]

Hey Heidi! How are you doing? How are Mr. Heidi and the kids doing? What's new? We just moved to Maryland a month ago - really like it here! Dh is completely overwhelmed by med school. Have made an AP-mama friend who is the spouse of one of the students in dh's class. Yay!

MyLittleWonders - Yes, I am still nursing. My little one just turned one on Monday. I am wondering if my milk supply will hold up. Doesn't it diminish when you get pg??

[spero]

I'm hanging in there - Mr H went back to work in July, back on active duty w/the fire dept a couple of weeks ago, and physically he's doing great. His recovery has been nothing short of miraculous, Paise God.

The kids are doing well...DD still has a lot of pstd and fears about the dark & driving past the scene of the accident (which we do often, since it's en route to my mom's), but she's bravely dealing with it all. DS seemed to work through all of his emotions with a school project on drunk driving, complete with enlarged photos of [what was left of] our car. I understand he made a pretty big impact on his classmates; which is good, since they'll all be turning sixteen in the next year.

Mr H and I were able to meet the mom of the drunk driver recently. I think it was a big healing moment for us all....a lot of tears were shed and many hugs exchanged. The driver plea bargained (no big surprise, here in NY :irked: ) and received a sentence of 1-3 years; she's currently in state prison serving her time.

I sent my baby off to kindergarten this year! :bawl I'll be 40 on "our" birthday! :scared My oldest is a SOPHMORE! :eek

I'm filling my newly lonely days with fall cleaning, [long overdue] organizing, and sewing. I'm training for Eucharistic outreach ministry at the local hospital, and I'm also getting involved in ministry at the county jail - we have a couple in our parish who hold a prayer & communion service for, then have lunch with, the women in the county jail every Friday.

I am wondering if my milk supply will hold up.

It will, don't worry. Eat lots of oatmeal!

Keri and I have both nursed through a pgy and tandem nursed. You can do it!

Speaking of Keri - she is in Houston, riding out Hurricane Rita w/her family. Please keep them in prayer.

[Smithie]

I conceived right after stopping the Pill, so I'm not really sure about my EDD. I actually just went through some serious hell with an incorrect ectopic dx and an uneccessary surgery, but what they thought was a bleeding ectopic was just my corpus luteum. So they closed me up and it looks the pregnancy is going to survive the trauma. I have an ultrasound on Monday to try and figure out what's happening in there.

Jenn, I'm so thrilled for you. :sticky for both of us!

[JLav]

Aww, thanks Jessica - I'm trying to think of an original way to say how much it means to have you say that but I keep repeating myself from the above posts. :innocent

The timing could be right...if we conceived on this cycle I'd be due June 14th. It's still *way* to early to tell anything...I just O'd yesterday (I think). I've been so excited for you, I've been praying that this little one holds on! I've also been praying (a little selfishly) that maybe we might be pregnant again at the same time!
I've missed you on the PABL thread...I'll just keep checking in here to see how you're doing! :love

[doulanichole]

I am here too, but still in hiding. I am not at a place just yet where I am ready to accept that I may actually end up getting a baby out of this pregnancy. I am a pretty optimistic person, but I have had too many false starts. Should probably go to the lab tomorrow for an hCg and progesterone test....good times! Certain to be fun with 3 kids in tow!

By my calculations I should be due 6/10, but I won't be adding that to my sig. just yet! Take care!

[Leakyboobs]

I'll join in too. My estimated O day puts me due in June, but my babes tend to make their own due dates up... I've had the same due date with both, but they were born a month apart. :-)

BTW, I've nursed through a pregnancy and tandem nursed until May of this year... and it looks like I'll be doing it again. It certainly can be done!

[Amys1st]

Hi LAdies, Can I join in?

DH and I have been trying for 4 months and this morning I tested :+
so we are very excited!!

We have a DD who will be 4 the week the baby is due. The baby is due June 1st but I tend to go early so it might be May. My DD came on our 5 yr anniversary so that probably will happen again!!

:heartbeat

[JennInSeattle]

Smithie - Oh thank you!

Jessica - Well I made it past when my period was due so that's a good thing. I normally have a 12 day lp but to be on the safe side I was figuring it at 14 days and then I had to wait through day 15 because that's when af would have come so today is 16 dpo - milestone #1. ;)

The last baby died around 5.5 weeks.. the others around 7.5 and 8.5 so I'll have to wait through those as well and without any medical care. But perhaps not having insurance at this moment is better - I don't have to get nervous about appointments or results but instead keep my jealousy in check when I hear others reporting back! lol

There's nothing I want more than for your to join me! I can't help it, I love posting with you and talking with you. I wanted to cheer you on at the TTCAL thread but I know it's better to be quiet. In retrospect I could have pm'd you! lol :innocent Anyway - I'll be watching and waiting and hoping and praying for you. God knows our hearts desires and as long as they line up in His will then He wants to give us every one of them! I'm really praying that His will is a pregnancy without loss for you this month!! :throb

[Smithie]

Today's ultrasound proved that DESPITE the wonders of modern medicine, my baby is alive and well in there. Ectopic, my aunt fanny. The gestational sac is very well positioned in my uterus, at exactly the spot where I saw a dot last Wednesday and they said, "oh, that's just a dot of fluid, now hurry up and get to the ER because you are about to die." :irked:

EDD 06/01. Planning a homebirth with the same midwife who delivered ds in a freestanding center. We're so thrilled!

[ChasingPeace]

Good news, Smithie! I decided I should post in June, too. My due date is actually May 28, but I was 9 days late with ds #1, plus my cycle was way off the month we conceived, so I'm thinking it's probably going to be a June baby.

[doulanichole]

Congrats, Smithie! Wonderful news.

My good news is that I had a positive blood test at 12 DPO, with an hCg level of 43. Hoping for doubling tomorrow. Cautiously optimistic after numerous m/c's and chemical pregnancies, but very hopeful!

[AngelBee]

I conceived right after stopping the Pill, so I'm not really sure about my EDD. I actually just went through some serious hell with an incorrect ectopic dx and an uneccessary surgery, but what they thought was a bleeding ectopic was just my corpus luteum.

That is amazing!

[AngelBee]

I may be joining you mamas......I feel preggo, but 4 tests say negative. :shrug

I am breastfeeding Angelo and haven't had a cycle yet, so I have no way to figure out my dates. I have been nausiated for 10 days and crampy. So either Auntie Flow is coming, I have a virus :laugh: , or I am in the early stages of babyville.

Sooooo....I will be lurking :D

[cammiesmom]

wow smithie that's amazing congratulations.
and congratulations to all the mamma's

[StacyL]

Well, I took another test today and of course it was positive. I'm six days past when AF was due, but I first tested positive so early that dh and I wanted to wait awhile to take another test just to make sure before we told our parents. We called my Mom this morning and his parents tonight and everyone is thrilled.

I got pretty nauseous around 4 this afternoon - not looking forward to the morning sickness kicking in over the next week or so....

[Darcy37]

Can I join? I have had 4 positive tests in 4 day at home.I will be 38 next month and Iam diabetic when pregnant this will be my last one.The base hospitol did two urine tests both negative so they did a blood test today and if they get a positive I wil be checking my blood 4 times a day and on a special diet for the pregnancy.I figured out my due date will be june 1 2006 my last two were a week early though.

[Smithie]

Hey Darcy, we share an EDD! Is there any better guarantee that our babies WON'T arrive on the same day? :LOL

[doulanichole]

Doubling hCg levels today! YAY! Such a relief after a very crazy year. Very excited to be here with all of you and looking forward to the upcoming months!

Congrats to all the newly pg moms!

[Darcy37]

Smithie they did a blood test and said it was a weak positive meaning it could be a chemical pregnancy so they want to do another pregnancy blood test friday.I told her Iam only 4 weeks along so she said that could be why it was weak she said my numbers have to have doubled by friday so now I wait :( anyone got a pepp talk for me?

[mommy2boys]

I'm nervously poking in. I got my bfp this morning at 12 dpo. I didn't think it was ever going to happen. Congratulations to all you mamas out there. Ovusoft puts my due date at 6/9.

[Fluffhead]

hi-just wanted to say hi. af is late. look at my sig referring to dd's age. havent tested yet. im too scared to. im nursing dd on demand and exclusively...so this can't happen can it? just wanted to say hi. OMG! omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg!

[Amys1st]

marsupial -

Yes you can get prgnt while nursing- not fun but it can happen. Have you gotten your period since you delivered? Mine took 24 mos to come back. You might want to test or have a blood test to be sure.

Looks like your breastuarant will have to expand to include new customers. :LOL

[Darcy37]

Marsupial you can get pregnant breastfeeding although in my case I didnt have a period or OV tell I stopped BF'ing my 13 month old.Did you start having periods after you had your Dd? that is a sign you can conceive.

[Smithie]

:fingersx: for you, Darcy...

Wow, marsupial. I have a 05/04 baby. Wow.

[Fluffhead]

AF returned promptly at 7 weeks pp...
Wow. i am going to test today but i dont need to. i already know. my normally beloved coffeemaker made me ill to the tummy today.

[Amys1st]

Hey Darcy- Don't let cynthia catch you w that signature. I do know I got scolded for having more than 2 lines fyi

marsupal- yup I think your right. I hope the coffee thing passes.

[acruwe1024]

I just tested positive on Monday DD: 6/5/05. I am new to the forum, but I am happy to have found some other natural mamas out there.

[Amys1st]

acrue- welcome and congrats.

[mommy2boys]

Welcome and Congratulations Acru!

[jentilla]

Well, I won't be official until Thanksgiving, but we tested positive last night and the little one made itself known by getting me up last night 3 times to go pee!!!!

Just when the toddler is sleepoing through the night
:LOL

BUt I'm NOT complaining! :)

Here's to lots of successful and healthy pg's!

[Amys1st]

I was only up twice last night to pee like a racehorse. Funny I do not recall intaking all those liquids in the last 12 hours....

We are already telling people- mainly family and friends. But my symptoms are so obvious that something is different.

[StacyL]

Welcome to all the new June Mommies!!

BTW, what is a bfp???

[mommy2boys]

bfp = big fat positive :) :+

[doulanichole]

Congrats, jentilla! Good to see you over here from the Nursing Mama's thread!

Here's to healthy pregnancies for all of us!

[StacyL]

bfp = big fat positive :) :+


Ah, thank you!

Duh... :LOL

[Mama2Xander]

Just found out earlier this week that #2 is on the way! I haven't been on this forum in ages but thought I'd pop in and say hi :)
Ds is 19 months old and my EDD for this babe is June 4th although ds was two weeks early so who knows, maybe a May baby!

I was only up twice last night to pee like a racehorse. Funny I do not recall intaking all those liquids in the last 12 hours....



:LOL That's exactly what I was thinking!

Congrats to all the new mamas-to-be!

Kirsten

[babybugmama]

Well I must have the latest due date so far for all of y'all. I'm due June 13th. It's still a few days before my period, so we have to wait and see for sure. But my older dd has been asking for a baby sister. We'll see what we can give her :LOL

[Amys1st]

babybugmama- :dust :fingersx:

[jentilla]

Thanks Nichole! You too! We are going to have to meet sometime since you are only in Atlanta:)

[babybugmama]

So maybe some of you all can tell me about this aspect. With my first I had no worries, no spotting or anything. With this one I've had some crampy feelings and some spotting, but only when I wipe. It's usually brown, but I have had a few spots of pink. Any thoughts?

[Satori]

Well I must have the latest due date so far for all of y'all. I'm due June 13th. It's still a few days before my period, so we have to wait and see for sure. But my older dd has been asking for a baby sister. We'll see what we can give her :LOL

I'm the current winner:P lol :) I'm due June 14th :D

[augustmom]

I'm new here, too and hopefully, staying for the duration. :o

satori--who's lilgsmommy? I'm trying to understand the chuckles I guess.

congratulations mamas and mamas to be.

[Satori]

I'm new here, too and hopefully, staying for the duration. :o

satori--who's lilgsmommy? I'm trying to understand the chuckles I guess.

congratulations mamas and mamas to be.

She's a Jan 06 mom preg with twins, she found out the genders and its not what she was hoping for, it was her worst nightmare lol! (its something i've been teasing her about as a possibility before she found out :LOL )

[augustmom]

ok, I get it. thanks.

[semomama]

Am due June 4th. Will try to be good about popping in. Congratulations to the rest of you. It is all still very surreal.

[Keeta]

I think I'm the new reigning champion of latest due dates: June 17th!

Yeah, i tested way early...

So excited to be here! Nice to meet you all. :D

[Paddington]

i know, i was feeling really late. 8 whole days past af and not testing... :LOL you all are good. no sneaking a pregnancy past you.... but, as i said, i am june 9 so keeta has got me beat as well.

[Leakyboobs]

So maybe some of you all can tell me about this aspect. With my first I had no worries, no spotting or anything. With this one I've had some crampy feelings and some spotting, but only when I wipe. It's usually brown, but I have had a few spots of pink. Any thoughts?

Crampy is normal- I've had it with both sons and this pregnancy too... As far as the bleeding, I don't have any personal experience but have certainly heard of people spotting and going on to have a healthy baby. Though, of course, if it increases I'd probably call in the reinforcments (Dr, midwife, whatever). Good luck!!

[Paddington]

what happened to marsupial? did you test?

[mamamilkbar]

Well, if the test I took this morning was correct, , I'm a June 3rd-to-be-again Mama!

Any pregnant and still nursing mamas out there?

And Jenn, I am overjoyed!!! I will be praying for you!

I'm due in June, I think around the 10th and still nursing!! DD Will be 1 on Halloween. and I can't wait to tandum nurse!!!! :) :) :)

[mountainsun]

Can I join??? :D
I tested last night, 2 days past AF...I kinda felt a little off all week, so I wan't shocked......although we weren't exactly trying, we were planning on really "trying" to get pg thismonth. :LOL
funny how things happen!
really glad to be here, I am still in a bit of "holy crap" mode. but happy.
love to all!

[mountainsun]

double post- sorry!

[Paddington]

I'm due in June, I think around the 10th and still nursing!! DD Will be 1 on Halloween. and I can't wait to tandum nurse!!!! :) :) :)


good birthday... it's mine too. :love

[AugustineM]

Hi everyone! I tested last night and it was positive. I had done two tests in the past two weeks and they were both negative but I was almost 9 days late. I think my due date is around June 10, maybe earlier.

This is crazy -- I think the conception date was probably DS's FIRST birthday! :) We weren't really trying, but, ooops... :)

[BundleFishMama]

Hi everyone...just dropping in, due June 19! Just found out yesterday....got my :+ at 11 dpo, yay!!! I'm SOOOO thrilled to be pg again and happy to be here with you all! :love

[TryingMommas]

Hi all - been meaning to find my way over here ... a special shout-out to the other "one thread" grads I see.
I also tested early due to temp rise and found out I was pregnant at 11 dpo (last week) - so I'm due June 16, 2006
:D

[Keeta]

Yay, TryingMommas! Glad to see you here!

Happy Birthday, Stacy!

[Darcy37]
