Babies due July - September 2019

[shalexis]

Hi everyone! I just got my BFP on Saturday, and thought I'd get this thread started. My EDD is 7/31/18, this is my second pregnancy. My daughter is 2, she'll be nearly 3 by the time this baby is born.

I'm excited, and a little in denial still. I didn't have an early symptoms last time, and I'm not having any so far this time either. Plenty of time for that to change though!

I think I get to join this thread too! I got my BFP on Wednesday putting my due date at July 23rd. We have a 9 month old daughter so i’m pretty nervous, but so excited!!

I was wondering when this thread would start. Was just coming to say congratulations to the both of you and wish you a very happy, healthy 9 months and baby!

Tentatively joining in. I got my BFP three weeks ago at 3w4d, with an EDD of 12 July. This is my first, so I'm feeling all the nerves and finding the nausea, food aversions and sore boobs oddly reassuring (though I'm certainly hoping they disappear after the first trimester!)

Hoping for healthy, sticky babies for us all!

Also cautiously and optimistically joining this thread. EDD should be July 28. Not feeling too many symptoms yet (lots of gas, though, ewww), but super excited!

Hi! I am due July 22nd. Very unexpected, we had accepted that we likely wouldn't be having any more children due to finances and some other factors, so it is a little nerve wracking but we are feeling positive and finally over the shock of it! Decided to take a test as I was a little late (but I am irregular) and got a very positive result. Nearly died right then!

This is our third, we have a 6 and (almost) 4 year old.

Called my OB to schedule an appointment today. December 14th seems so far away! I’ll be 7 weeks (I think) so I’m hoping my OB will do an ultrasound, even though it’s early

@hml
I have a nurse consult next week, but they just take blood samples and kind of check you out and give you their basic recommendations for nutrition/exercise all that stuff at this appointment at my office. I was really hoping I could get in for an ultrasound before the holidays, and I probably could've if I had just told them my last period date and not told them when I ovulated (yay ridiculously long cycles). Last time they didn't believe me anyway, but I don't want to get there and have them expecting me to be way further along and then freaking out if my hcg levels are lower than they should be for someone they're expecting to be, or if baby is 5 weeks behind what it should be.

So now I'm trying to figure out when I want to tell family. I was hoping to have the ultrasound done first so I could show them, but I'm not opposed to telling before. The holidays seems like a great time to do it (last time we announced on New Year's Eve). But we also just planned a trip with my husband's family around 15 weeks, so I might try to wait til then if I can get away with it. I'm scared of showing super early this time around, so I might not be able to.

Also, I have this paranoia about twins. I had it last time too, so it feels silly, but it will make me feel a lot better to get an ultrasound and see one baby in there haha. If I do start showing early, I'm going to stress. Even though the odds are not that high! I just tested positive way earlier this time, and I have always worried about it for some reason. And I have to wait until JANUARY to know for sure.

Other than all of that, things here are great! No symptoms yet, so far so good. Glad to see more people getting BFPs!

@shalexis totally with you on the twin paranoia, though I don't have any in my family so not too much of a risk.

Congrats on all the recent BFPs!

We have our dating scan on Friday (I'll be around 8 weeks). I can't wait to see that everything is okay. It's so hard waiting and not knowing, though I know some people have to wait even longer. I started taking nausea meds this past weekend- called my OB for recommendations and they sent a script through to my pharmacy. I was struggling to eat or drink anything, so I'm feeling a lot more human most of the day now.

Sending good thoughts to everyone

Hi ladies!

I got my BFP on Sunday for my 2nd! Estimated due date July 30. So far not many symptoms - just my boobs growing already, and they are super tender!
