[treemom2]

Hello! I am pg with #3 EDD 4/4/07. My first was a c-sec and my second was a Hbac. I now live in Japan and am slightly nervous about this birth. I really want another homebirth!!

[LKath]

We just found out over the weekend that we're expecting #2 on 5-3-07. Woohoo! Our ds just turned 2.

[LittleBast]

We're having are first, early november 2006. We're going to have our boy in a birthcenter with a midwife. possibly a waterbirth and Hypnobirth support. :rainbow

[honeydee]

Hi! I just found out that I was pregnant a couple days ago (took 5 HPTs because I was in disbelief) and am due May 16, 2007, which is also my birthday!

[Goldiemom]

Woohoo! I get to add myself on here again! I am due with #4 this time in April/May. Praying that it sticks! I am hoping for a homebirth this time, as it is now finally legal in my state.

[uzra_hashmi@rediff]

I am pregnant with #3. Due date is February 10, 2007.

[belladonna72]

We found out last night that we're expecting our first.

It's so early that we're afraid to tell anyone, but we're just ready to burst with excitement! :)

[comfortblessings]

I am 36wks and have been having preterm labor I mean long twice this last week last Friday I went from 11pm 3-4mins apart till 2am then they stopped well not all the way but no longer close together like that. I went in Sat eve and was told I was not dilated, I was surprised. I went to the doc's on the following monday and found that my cervix was not posterior and very ripe but she said not dialated. Yesterday I thought for sure I was going to have this baby I started having contractions 3-4 mins apart starting at 3pm and they lasted till 8:30 at 3-4 mins apart then they went to 5-6 mins apart until 1am then they backed off again. AGGGGH I am so tired and want to be done.

I should share that my last two were 34 wks and 35wks and they were perfectly healthy. My OB will not stop my labor if I go, I just pray that I am no longer tortured so to speak LOL with labor like that then stops I mean what the hay I wonder why, they are not braxton hicks they are very intense and painful some I can't even talk. This pregnancy my preterm labor began at 26wks so another reason I want to have this baby ASAP

Has this ever happened to anyone else? if so can you share

This is baby number 5 for us

What you are describing sounds a lot like prodromal labor to me. I had it for 4 weeks with my second baby (36-39w6d) and 5 weeks with my third baby (36 weeks until 41w6d).

Come over the birth and beyond forum and post your question- you'll get more responses that way. :)

[QuiteLikeRain]

Hello, I'm pregnant!

I'm Erin, 31 next month, edd 5/17/07!!! This will be #3; I have two sons, born 7/93 & 4/05. I'm thrilled and praying that all goes as smoothly this pregnancy as it did with my other two.

I birthed my older two at hospitals with midwives (and no epidurals here!) and will this time as well, as there are no birthing centers in the area and we recently moved in with my mother so a homebirth is not an option :(

Anyway, best of luck to all of you!

[Eaglevoice]

I get to post again, too!!! My first post was #704! Glad to be back on here! I'm due with baby #2 at the end of may. AF has been way wacky since I lost 30 lbs, so I have no idea of my LMP or conception date. And seeing that DD went 15 days over due, I'm not going to get my hopes up with an exact date again. Just the end of may 2007.

[lolalola]

:love Baby # 3 for me, due May 9th, 2007

[darsmama]

Pregnant with #3. Due date says late April, but I'm sure it will be a may babe :)

[JWhite31]

Hi there! Pregnant with #2! Due in late May, but babe will probably come in early June. I have a 14 month old DD, Jillian. :)

[stacey0402]

Hello! I am pregnant with baby #3, due May 16, 2007. We were not planning this baby, but couldn't be happier!

[torio]

This morning's gift was a BFP during the 4th month of ttc after a miscarriage at 10 wks in May. This one will be our first and we're planning to do it at home with our fab midwife. Due date based on ovulation is June 4, 2007.

[saratchka]

Got a surprise BFP this weekend. :bigeyes If all goes well we'll have a new family member in late May or early June.

[misstam]

I am 22 years old from Kelowna and expecting, unexpected baby number 1 on february 7th, 2007... i am hoping to deliver in a hospital:)

[CTH3989]

Chelci

[Wonderwoman76]

[Ks Mama]

Officially pregnant - woo hoo! Due date around June 14th with our second baby! Hoping for a VBAC! :thumb

[DanAbimytwomiracle]

I am mostly a lurker, but I'm due February 18th, 2007 with my 3rd - a boy :).

[Shell_Ell]

June 15, 2007 here, our second babe!

[herbmama3-7]

I'm Pregnant!!
this is Baby and Pregnancy # 2. We Are planning a homebirth and hopeing for a girl. Due in the beginning of June 2007. :bouncy

[lotusdebi]

I'm pregnant with #2, due in early March, 2007. We're planning a home waterbirth.

[CaraO]

I am 6 1/2 weeks and due around June 1st 2007! I will be 43 on May 30th, so this is going to be the best birthday present ever.

This is the first baby for DH and me! We have been trying for over a year! All those years of trying not to get pregnant!!!

In January, my obgyn suggested to go to an RE because of my age--which was good--an HSG showed that I had two uterine polyps in my uterine lining. I had a hysteroscopy to remove them in April.

In July, we tried an IUI with injections--had a chemical pregnancy--but knew that egg and sperm could meet. Since one cycle was about $4000, and not covered my insurance, we decided to try again on our own--with some clomid and progesterone--a mere $65!

And viola!

Would like to have a natural childbirth--however, our insurance is switching to Kaiser in January and I am not sure what they offer. The last thing I want is to be flat on my back with a bunch of monitors on!!!:sunshine

[sugamagmama]

Due May 25th, 2007 with baby #3 :D
Planning on another homebirth, hopefully waterbirth this time!

[justme77]

Hello. Our EDD is Nov 5th with our first- give or take a week. Unfortunately hubby has been deployed to Iraq (3rd tour), so I will be delivering at a free-standing birth center (hoping for a waterbirth) w/ 2 Midwives, a birthing assistant, a doula, and a very dear friend.

I wish you all the best!!!

[StacieM]

I'm also expecting. According to LMP, my due date is June 6, 2006. This is my 5th pg and I have 4 beautiful children already (3 girls, 1 son). This pg was not something we were planning, but were blessed with anyway. It was a bit overwhelming at first, but now I'm excited and can't wait!

Another boy would be great, but if I had to guess, I would say we'll probably have another girl. That's okay too. I just hope this pg goes as well as my others have gone.

[mf_colon]

I am expecting my first child on February 3, 2007. We are keeping the sex a secret. I will be hitting 25 weeks at the end of this week and so far everthing is good!

[WingMom]

Anybody know of any good pregnancy journals?

[stacyann21]

I'm 34 weeks pregnant with my first, a boy. I'm due on November 30th.:heartbeat

[2kidsmamma]

Best wishes everyone!

[masherrell]

No positive test, but I know I'm preg with #3. BBT high and CM lotiony. Expected AF Thur. but Taking test tomorrow. M/S 7:30 this morning. I thought I was going to get AF untill this morning. :jumpers: :balloons :carrot :banana :broc: Let's all have a Party.

[Nora'sMommy]

I'm pregnant!

I'm due around June 7th. This is my second pregnancy. We are planning a homebirth again. Although we're not currently sure where home will be!

I hope for another girl.....just to make things easier and I never had a sister so I want that for my daughter. But we'll love a boy to of course.

[beachsea]

I am pregnant with my first baby and due April 23rd. :belly My DH and I are very excitied, each change i am experiencing brings tears to my eyes! Good luck to all!

[mainegirl]

I almost can't believe it!

Have no idea where I am right now - 7-9 weeks, maybe? We've got our fingers crossed that this one will stick, had a miscarriage earlier this year.

Just gotta keep on keepin' on!

Already interviewed one homebirth midwife team who handle VBACs, and got another to meet! Yay!

[eila]

I'm pregnant with my first! I've been wanting this for years and am so thrilled that it's finally happening. Due June 28th. And loving life! :)

[MaxiMom]

Hi all,

I've been lurking here for a while, figured it was time to get on board. I'm due with my 2nd on April 10 and my ds will be three by then. I'll be having another home water birth with the same midwife.

It's been a bit of a tough one so far, worse than my first, but we just plod through. Waiting to see what it will be, no ultrasound this time. Although forever I thought I'd have two boys, everything seems to tell me it's a girl this time. We'll see!

[IamPink]

I am pregnant for the 3rd time, 4th baby (I have a bonus son).
ds1 is 8
ds2 just turned 5
dd is 19 months

I am planning on having a homebirth which will be my first. I am a Doula and I have seen some horrible things happen to my clients in the past year. I refuse to be put in a dramatic situation when I am in labor!! I am a responsible woman that can birth babies so I will be just fine. (yep, agreed to a midwife for my dh! :lol )
I couldn't imagine being at a house while someone was in labor until I started doing my lurking on this site.
Now, I won't step foot in a hospital to have a baby... no way! I want what you guys have had!

I am due 7-2-7. I have a feeling that it is another girl, but I will know for sure in 7.5 months!!!

[amyleigh33]

This is my first time on this board, first post to it, and first pregnancy. I had my first appointment with a midwife a couple weeks ago, and my due date is May 13, 2007. But I am not planning to have a home birth as I live in an apartment and don't feel comfortable doing it here; but maybe next time.

I'm only 22, which feels young to me, so even though I am excited I am also terrified! Hoping to pick up some good advice by scanning these boards! Thanks.

[katarn]

my name: Kat Arn
due date: june 29
this will be baby number 2
ds will be 25 mo. at delivery
planning a homebirth.. again

[ericswifey27]

I am due sometime in June, planned HBAC waterbirth

I am not sure if I am going to find out if it's a boy or girl yet either ;)

[zensven42]

My name is Kristin. I am due December 8th with my 4th child. My children have the tendency to be late, so I might have mine around the holidays. I plan on an unassisted homebirth as I dislike my previous hospital experiences. I'm quite round and ready now! LOL

Thanks!

Kristin :)

[koru]

hi all ~ i'm due mid-may with #3. this is my 6th pregnancy with 3 scattered m/c so i'm finally feeling "out of the woods" at 13 weeks! yippee!!

i have 2 little girls, 3 1/2 & almost 2 (19 months apart) & my husband has an older daughter, as well, so we're betting on another girl in our household. :)

i had two fabulous, all natural birth center births with the girls & am planning a homebirth with this one.

[Djfiresign]

Hey Everyone! I'm Debra and pregnant with my first son who's due 2.22.07. My hopes are to have a waterbirth at a birthing center. I say "hopes" because after 2 ultrasounds we are still not sure if he has a Single Artery Umbilical cord. I am scheduled to have a 3rd Ultrasound with a Specialist, we'll see what they have to say. So, if all goes as planned I will stay put where I am, if they decide he has the Single Artery cord, then my heart tells me to birth in a hospital where he has all the latest available to him.

[WhiteWax]

I'm preggo again with little surprise number 2 due June 5th 2007. My daughter is 2 years and it looks like after being 4 years with my fiance we will be parting ways so look out single parenthood HERE I COME!!!

ps... scared out of my find!!! HA HA

OH... and I used a midwife for my first delivery and will be using her for my second as well.. very exciting! lol

[Retesha]

:wink I'm pregnant with baby number 3!
Due date is July 16, 2007 But might be bumped up after the first doctors visit

[aminspace]

Hi, I'm pregnant with my second child - after an 8 year gap! - and due on April 20th. I'm hoping for a VBAC :) Not sure whether to try and homebirth yet.

Oh, and I'm in the UK.

[momma2sageraven]

:balloons
So excited to be pregnant again! Due date is estimated at June 30, 2007 and we won't be finding out the sex. We have an 18mo DS, so we'll start talking to him about being a big brother.

Will be having a natural birth in our lovely local birthing center with a midwife and doula.

So tiredddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd!

Blessing to you all beautiful pregnant mommas!
Bella:zzz

[sparklemama]

Hi there! We're expected our third (a girl!) in mid-May '07. Conceived while nursing a toddler and no AF yet (not that I expected that to be birth control!) nevertheless it was a little bit of a surprise! When she joins us she'll have a 2 year old big sister and an almost 5 year old big brother.

[aiyana]

I'm 16+ weeks along, due on June 9th, 2007
Planning a homebirth with a midwife, potentially a water birth
This is our first child.

I've already gained 10 lbs, but I'm just starting to show a little bit - if I lift my shirt!! I think all the weight has gone to various parts of my body - I'm just "thicker" all over, esp. my boobs & bootie!

I feel fantastic, no sickness, hardly any prego signs, so I am eager for something - a heartbeat, a flutter...soon I hope!

[darsmama]

Early may babe due here!

[mnkygrl79]

me, YAY!!! Due Sept 7, 2007 :throb :jumpers:

[BeckiB]

Hi!

I'm due to have our first on July 9, 2007. My ideal would be a homebirth or a birthing center; probably a water birth.

[xrayz]

We're pregnant with our first baby. 90% chance it is a girl. Although we could only see the butt on the u.s.

Can't wait to hold my little one and gaze into her loving eyes.:loveeyes:

Homebirth/waterbirth with mw...:Peace

[indiemamma]

I had just started my first quarter back as a full-time student after a year and a half off to take care of my first DS. I was in classes ONE WEEK and found out I was pregnant again!! We are really hoping for a girl and are due the third week of the Fall quater. I'm really excited and hoping to do a home/waterbirth, but we live in a very tiny apartment and I'm quite the screamer in labor... so we'll see! Can't wait!

Congratulations!:loveeyes: I am so happy for you. Maybe keeping the thread going was the extra good luck.:loveeyes:

[MOMGOTSPUNK]

I'm here. I just found out on Friday, so its been less than a week. Yesterday I had it comfirmed at the Nurse's Office. It kind of scared me to go there, because I was afraid they would say I wasn't. Then it kind of scared me to be hit with the reality of this being my third baby. I am going to have 3, 4 and under.:dizzy: I am VERY happy though. :loveeyes:

[flowers]

How do we get an Oct 07 ddc started?

[mamamoo]

[zjande]

I have been blessed with pregnancy #3, & I am sooooo happy. I'm due November 20th.

This is the 2nd time I've gotten to post on this thread! :heartbeat I'm now expecting baby #4 on Christmas eve (or thereabouts). :love

[Brees_Mama]

meeeee!!! due 12/25/07 with baby #2~we got preg while nursing, wooohoooo!!! :bfs

[pishajane]

:D I'm pregnant with #2 - happened without return of AF...so no idea when i'm due!! (DD1 is nearly 10mo)
Planning another waterbirth at home with the same midwife & very excited!

[MissChris1974]

I'm pregnant with #2. It's due 16 July 07, the day after my son's 3rd B-day. It's supposed to be a girl.:grouphug

[Treece]

I'm prego with number 2!!!!! No clue when I'm due as I wasn't charting or anything. So, now I get to have the Circ discussion...........Joy.

[sunflwrmoonbeam]

Hi! I'm pregnant with my 1st, and due in early January. I am so amazingly excited to be here.

[Juvysen]

Hi. Kind of new to MDC, but...

I'm due w/my second child on July 16 but I was long overdue with my DD, so I expect it'll be later in July. I'm expecting a boy.

Probably a hospital birth but with a slight chance of homebirth available, so I guess we'll see.

[Naturalmommy86]

Hi! After an early miscarriage 2 months after my wedding, then 2 1/2 years of unexplained infertility, hubby and I finally just relaxed and put everything in God's hands, and whatdya know, the next month we were preggers :-D I'm at roughly 16 weeks, and just just just finally stopped having morning, noon, and night sickness, so I'm back on my computer.

My midwife only charges $1500.00 for complete pre-natal/delivery/post-natal care per child, so we're having a home waterbirth in October. The 18th is my EDD, but we may be about 2 weeks behind, so the baby could wind up in later October or early November. It'll be a surprise;)

:innocent

[happymom83]

hi,i preg. with my forth.i have a almost 5 yr old girl,3 yr old boy,1 1/2 boy,and this newbie is going to be a girl due on july 10th,but i really feel like it will be sooner.i hoping it will be sooner too,this pregnancy has been so much more tiring than the others,maybe cause i'm running after my other three little monkies.lol:dizzy:

[zahirakids]

Hi I am Pregnant :wink with Number 3 My due date is January 19th 2008... I have a five year old son and a two year old daughter.

[Tennesseemommy]

I'm preggers with number 2. I think I'm due early Feb. (I will see my doctor on June 7). The plan is all natural for this one. Ended up being enduced last time, so hopefully this time we can stick to the plan. The babes will be about 23 months apart:) My DH and I are soooo happy.

[pottermama]

I am pregnant with number 3. The edd is somewhere between 09/30/07 and 10/07/07. :lol

[Mamazon]

[Pixieleah]

I am so excited. I am pregnant with my first. Due January 25th, 2008 or so. Homebirth for sure, I was a homebirthed baby myself. Waterbirth is looking like a great option. I am also looking at unassisted birth. Interesting ideas.

[gerlassie]

We're pregnant!!! We have 2 sons ( 6 and 2 ) and lost a pregnancy last year. I am so excited about our baby!!! I turned 40 this year and lost a pregnancy last year so, I'm cautiously optimistic but have strong faith. Any older mommies have a recent home birth? I would really like to experience one.

Kim
Daniel 6 and David 2 mommie

[bloominmamas]

[MommyHammy]

I did a home test this morning and I am pregnant!!!! I have been bursting to tell someone, anyone (other than my husband) since it came back positive. Based on my LMP, I am due on Feb 29, 2008.

[CassiopiaTheOnly]

i don't think i have; we're pregnant with my first child, we found out in april, our official due date is December 26th:) working with an awesome team of midwives!!

[lovethyspirit]

Hello :) I'm Heather and i'm 25 weeks preggers with my first baby. I didn't want a surprise so I know i'm having a fiesty little baby boy.

due October 13 2007.

[dusty_rosegirl]

Hi! I'm also 25 weeks pregnant with our first baby! Also due on October 13th! We are having a little boy! I will be having a C-section because in 2003 I had a grand mal seizure and I am currently on medication to control seizures (I haven't had one since, thank goodness...and that was my first seizure to have). Anyways, C-section it is because we don't want to take any chances that I could go into a seizure during birth.

[GathererGirl]

I'm due with my first. By my calculations I'm due 3/9/08, but my first appointment is tomorrow, so maybe they'll change that.

[tpaigewhite]

I'm pregnant with #2 but in my blended family it makes #4. I have two lovely step daughters (13 &11) who I homeschool, & a dd who is 2. I'm due March 6th. I'm planning a vbac but not sure whether it will be in a birth center or at home.

[mama..me??]

Hi! I'm also 25 weeks pregnant with our first baby! Also due on October 13th! We are having a little boy! I will be having a C-section because in 2003 I had a grand mal seizure and I am currently on medication to control seizures (I haven't had one since, thank goodness...and that was my first seizure to have).

Congrats!! If my lil boy does't turn i will have to have a C-section too. I'm glad to hear you are taking all the necessary precautions. My brother in law also has epilepsy.
Good luck to you!

[AislinCarys]

I'm pregnant with our first child. I think I'm due March 8th. We're planning a home birth, and I'm in the process of choosing a midwife.

[pamama]

I've been posting in the December DDC for several months now so thought I'd finally add myself to this thread. :lol I am due December 25th with baby #3. I have a 5 (almost 6) year old son and a 3 year old daughter.

[thehappydeer]

I'm happily pregnant with my first baby! Ultrasound shows its a girl. We think shes Due Nov 24th. I am planning a home birth with a midwife and plan to have a tub set up. My dream is to birth in the water, but will be happy even to use it in labor. :shy Yay! Good Luck Everyone!

[jillybeans]

I'm due with #2 3/16/08. After a year of trying and infertility problems, this is my third pregnancy in seven months, and we're cautiously optimistic that this one will stick! It's so sweet that we're due on the day we found out we were pregnant with Riley, who we lost at 11.5 weeks. :D

[Mrs.Floyd]

I'm preggo with my first. My math says we're due November 22, for some reason the CNM says Nov. 24. (I'm sticking with the 22nd so baby's due on Thanksgiving, but letting the 'official' date stay the 24th so I have 2 extra days before I'm considered 'overdue'!) U/S looks like a boy, and we couldn't be happier!

[Alison Cole]

Planned pregnancy with our first, planning a March 08 homebirth, and very hungry. :wink

[anjanetteopal]

Pregnant with first in a state where homebirth and midwifery are mostly illegal. (boo!) Due Feb 13th and plan to give birth at a free standing birthing center in the next state (30m min drive).

[pinkorchid2]

I'm pregnant with our first and I'm due in March 2008. We want the gender of the baby to be a surprise and we are still researching birthing options.

[SunChild]

I'm pregnant with my first.
Her name's Tahlie and she is due August 30!

[zonapellucida]

Heidi pg wiht no 9 due March of 08

[damselfly41]

Hi, I'm Shannon. Pg with number three, due March 29-ish.

[garviegirl]

I'm pregnant with #3, due August 12...we're waiting to see if it's a boy or a girl...We have a daughter who is 7 and a son who is 4. She was five weeks early, he was induced at 37 weeks due to pre-eclampsia, and I have gestational diabetes with this one. I am in constant pain with this one and can hardly wait for he/she to make an appearance even though nothing is ready around here!

[sagira]

I'm pregnant with my second child, a baby girl due August 8. I'm 38 weeks pregnant :)

[KariM]

I just found out that I'm pregnant! This will be my third child.

[violamama]

Kathy

[wowbaby42]

Sweet Baby is due sometime between mid-Feb and mid-March, closer estimate when I get it. We are planning a midwife attended homebirth. This is my 4th, but my husband's 1st!!!

[nikkiejean]

I'm 15 wks pregnant with my first!

I honestly thought I would never get pregnant and I have waited so long for this moment that I still find myself in disbelief - even after the sonogram. There wasn't any medical reasoning behind my belief - I just had one failed relationship after another as the biological clock ticked louder and louder. Then I found out that you don't have to be in a successful relationship to get pregnant (oh, what they don't teach you in highschool :wink ) - so I'm doing this on my own and I'm pretty scared, but I know everything is going to be all right.

[Inspired007]

Don't think I've posted here yet.

I am 30 weeks pregnant and my baby is due Oct. 15, 2007. We're having a girl!

[superfastreader]

I'm 26 weeks, due mid-November after a m/c in January with our first. I got pregnant again right away and even though it was hard at first, I'm really glad I didn't hold back.

[the elyse]

i'm pregnant with my second! yay! :D

[Mama2-4]

I am pregnant with our 4th baby, due around 2/2/08!

[Becky~~<~@]

I'm pregnant with #1 :o hopefully. . due April 6, 2008.. . Very anxious and worried about this because of a late (4 month) miscarriage last year.

[kellynewcomer]

I'm pregnant and due Sept. 22, 2007. Expecting to give birth at St. Joseph's hospital with the waterbirth with a midwife and a doula and hopefully my husband will be in town (he's a pilot), and also my 3-yr-old son Everett will be there hopefully if dad is in town... Hoping to keep baby in the womb at least til the 37th week if possible...

[gretelmom]

Yea! We're having another boy at the end of November, his name will probably be Boden Matthew. Reading a few Bradley books as well as Hypnobirthing! Hoping for an easier time nursing this time around, as well as less stitches!

Joanna

[cdmommie]

This is my first. We found out it is a Girl! I was due August 10th but no baby as of yet. My doctor wants to induce on August 18th by breaking my water..... I am terrified to be induced! We'll see how it goes.

[hellodebbie87]

I'm pregnant with my first baby, a girl named Maia Rose.

My due date is September 11, 2007!

-Deb

[AlpineMama]

I'm three months pregnant with our second (and last) baby. The gender will be a surprise. I'm hoping for another great natural birth at our birth center. I'm due March 1st.

[ilikethedesert]

I'm pregnant with baby number three! We have two girls and are planning our second home waterbirth. I can't wait!!!
The due date is Feb. 8 but my first was 11 days past the DD and the second was ten, so we'll see!

[blizzard_babe]

Just got a :+ for my first, due in late April 2008. I'm buzzing around the room right now...

[misskerri]

I am pregnant with #2, due January 26th, 2008, after 12 months ttc. I am 36 years old, so I am considered to be of "advanced maternal age." My DS will have just turned 4 when this Sprout is born. :)

[Outofmymindyo]

Thankfully I'm on my way to our second. Something about this one just makes me think it's going to be a baby boy. I'm so glad to have MDC because people won't call me weird just for having a strong feeling about the sex.

Anyway, based on ovulation my due date will be May 10, 2008. Going to be weird having two kids birthdays less than 30 days apart, but I think we can make it fun.:dizzy:

[Mamato2boy]

I am due with #3 Feb 16, 2008! Hoping for a girl!!! We find out on Sep 27th.

[junipervt]

Just found out yesterday I'm pregnant with #1 due mid May.

[vetch]

After 1 & a half years of TTC, we're pregnant with our second child! Got :+ last Sept 7 and today's my appt with my OB.I'm 5 weeks & 4 days :belly, and my EDC is on May 8 next year..:lol :lol :lol

[Crybaby1898]

eight months now with my first little boy i need stuff and broke so send me stuff hahahahah you don't have to. my due date is oct 25

[CherryBomb]

I'm pregnant with my 3rd and due March 5th. Currently planning on VBA2C in a hospital with an OB and a doula.

[Dame]

I am pregnant with my first child! I'm due April 30th.

[Junegoddess]

I'm pregnant for the 5th time, will be our 3rd living child. Finally starting to relax now that I'm 10 1/2 weeks and every day that passes means I'm less likely to miscarry. Already have one girl and one boy, so... kinda hoping to leave this one a mystery until she/he's born. Due date is April 10, but I'd put my money on the 12th or, with a long labor preceding, the 13th. Our son "messed up" the Super Bowl by choosing that as his birthday, so I'm betting this one will do the same to the Master's (golf tourny). :lol

Planning a hospital birth because mine always get stuck (yes, despite not being on my back). Hoping to not grow one quite so darn big this time!

[AnnieMarie]

Were PG with #3 due early June 2008 Planning another home water-birth

[sandybemt]

[cyrusmama]

I am pregnant with our second babe, due May 1st, but am convinced it will be bumped up a week or so, right now I am planning on using a doc, general practitioner and delivering at a birth center

[moma justice]

[cj'smommy]

Hi! I'm excited to be here!

I'm pregnant with #3 (that still boggles my mind!) due in late May. Trying for a VBAC if I don't have Placenta Previa this time, and hoping I don't have Hyperemesis this time.

I have 2 boys who are the light of my life. A DH and a dog, who in my mind count as my children too, :wink and I'm wondering how I'm going to keep sane!

[helpy]

i'm due 4/13/08 with #4

[being]

[TeaLeaf]

Hello,

This is our first child; it's a boy. I will be induced Oct 5 at 34 weeks b/c I have had PROM since week 29; I'm on bedrest at the hospital trying to hang in there.

[amberskyfire]

Aloha!
I'm almost 16 weeks along and due March 18, 2008 with my first. This is my fourth pregnancy after 3 miscarriages and I've finally hit the safe zone, yay! I'm doing an unassisted pregnancy and childbirth, but I have midwives who will be checking on the baby the day after birth and getting me a birth certificate and registering my birth. Glad to be here!

[Mom_2_3_girls]

I'm due with our 4th on June 10 2008 planning a homebirth with my amazing midwife

[*Karen*]

[MamaRainebeau]

Hi y'all. I'm due in March with twin boys (#3 and #4). I'll probably go early. Dd is 2 and Ds is not yet 1. Please pray for my sanity!

[Mom_2_3_girls]

Hi y'all. I'm due in March with twin boys (#3 and #4). I'll probably go early. Dd is 2 and Ds is not yet 1. Please pray for my sanity!


Wow you are gonna be one busy momma! My hats off to you! Wish you the best!

[MamaTu-tu]

Hey there! I'm due with no. 2, a boy, on 21 October! I'm in the home stretch now after having some difficulties along the way. I had partial placenta previa that finally resolved around week 26 and was diagnosed as borderline GD. I'm really excited to complete our family this month!

[Anno]

Hi all - I'm pg with #2, due early May but am sure I will have the baby the end of April - I am type 1 diabetic (for 27 years) and had invasive uterine surgery before my first child was born, so have that scar plus the cesarean ...I dont think I could find an ob or midwife to touch me for a vbac. I suppose a woman can dream though!......

[BakerALM]

Original Post EDITING: MCed this babe at just 5wks (Just found out I am preggers with #2, due June 15, 08.)

We are planning a midwife birth with NO interventions this time. My water was broken at 10centimeters last time and it just made for a Very painful final portion of labor even though before that point labor was actually wonderful and Easy:shy. But other than that I did have a hospital birth with NO IVs or other interventions so over all it went well. I am hoping for even better and more calming this time.:loveeyes:

Update: Pregnant again!!! We caught the next egg after our MC. This babe is due July 31, 08. Hoping for a sticky bean this time.

[Chic_Mama]

I just found out this morning that I am prego with baby #2!! We will be due in mid-june although I am not exactly sure when yet because I have inconsistent cycles. Woo-hoo! So glad to not be trying anymore and to be moving into this forum!

[kltroy]

I just found out I'm pregnant with #2 - due June 12 (2008). We're very excited! The plan is to have an unmedicated hospital VBAC with a wonderful group of midwives in Chicago. DS (born 5/06) was a scheduled c/s :( because he was breech, so please join me in thinking cephalitic thoughts for baby #2!

[K's Mom!]

I'm pregnant with baby 3! I am due May 21, 2008. I am feeling like homebirth will be right for us. :)

[svmaine]

Greetings! I'm pregnant with #3, and finally need to start posting on the forum instead of just reading all the delightful threads!!

I'm due in early January and planning on waterbirth #2, at the hospital where I work, with a Doc that calls himself a midwife:eyes, we'll see.

Sarah

[Mom_2_3_girls]

[ryansma]

I am pregnant with #2 due late July early August. I am still nursing my ds who is 20 months and plan to birth at home.

[Stargirl]

:dropjaw :+ :jumpers:

I can't believe that I am posting this, but I got a fantastic surprise BFP yesterday! We had difficulty conceiving our first child so I have feared the same for baby number two. I am so grateful for my body working so well as we got pregnant this time on the first "try" and with no intervention! I am struggling to keep those early pregnancy irrational fears at bay and it still feels surreal, but I could not possibly be happier! I am due end of July/early August and am meeting with the midwives next week.

[newmama8824]

with a little boy.

how exciting! :)

[MusicMom29]

Confirmed by my family doctor today! I am due July 13, 2008. My DS is almost 10 months old so I am excited to be a very busy mama! Never dreamed this would be me after almost four years of infertility!

I feel so blessed and wanted to share with you, hopefully I posted in the right place, I am still pretty new to this!

[Mama-in-May]

We're pregnant with our fourth. Due sometime in August. A little nervous, don't know why, maybe I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. Hubby has been wanting a vasectomy and I think I'm ok with him getting one because although I don't mind having kids, I just cannot handle being so sick. He also demands we use whatever birthing method the insurance covers which is the hospital and M.D. Screw that!
