Introduce yourself here!

[MrsSuperElliott]

Hi fellow August 2017 mammas!

I figured we should have a thread to introduce ourselves!

Start with your due date!
Then tell us about
- your family (Hubby? Kids? Solo? Etc.)
- where you're from (no addresses please!!)
- how long you've been ttc (if at all!)
- your background
- your interests, hobbies, work, etc!

I figure if we're going to be supporting each other through this ride, then we should have a way to wave and say here I am!

Looking forward to getting to know you ladies over the next several months!

Hello August mommies! My husband and I are expecting our 2nd baby 8/26!  We have a wonderful little girl who I know will love having a playmate. My husband and I just started trying and got very lucky to get pregnant very fast.  We live in VA. I'm a nurse which I love doing, helping others but love  being with my family even more! Congratulations to everyone in this group and very excited to hear about everyone else!

Hello ladies im in Boise idaho and just found out I'm preggo with number 2 estimated due date 8/14. My son is almost 2 (22 months and a total mommas boy) long term boyfriend is Daddy to both. We are both 23 and work full time so not much in the way of hobbies other than anything outside. With my first I did run into some PPD after he was born so if any one ever needs to talk in here and never any judgments!!! Congrats to all

[MrsSuperElliott]

Welcome!

Depression is hard, especially post-partum. I had peri-natal and post-partum.

I agree with no judgements, but I  want to caution that this forum is not private. If anyone needs to speak privately, don't hesitate to ask for help and I'm sure many fellow mamas will respond + let you know how to get in touch with them more privately to help you through the tough stuff.

Hi everyone
Due Date is Aug 24th
Husband and I have been married since Aug 2015, and live in Chilliwack BC. We have been trying for a baby since Jan 2013. This is my 3rd time being pregnant with 2 miscarriages. This year found out my rubes were fully blocked so we just did IVF. I had the transfer on December 5th and I got a BFP on the 12th!!!! So excited but nervous at the time.

[MrsSuperElliott]

Welcome! Glad you can join us!

I think you're in the same neighborhood as my SIL. ;)
We will be telling family over Christmas/New Year holidays, so she doesn't know about this baby yet.

Hey everyone! Got my BFP this morning! Due date is roughly August 19th!

I'm in Alberta Canada and my husband and I have been married for 3 years!  This will be our second little munchkin.  Big sister is just about 17 months old!

We started trying in September so we've been really lucky!

[MrsSuperElliott]

Welcome!

My youngest two children are 18 months apart. That's quite an adventure, those extra months should help you!
