Hi and Congrats Everyone!

I thought it might be a good idea for everyone to introduce themselves briefly and give their due dates - we will hopefully be spending 9 months together so lets get to know each other a bit.

I am 42 and have a 2 year old son (a graduate of the Sept 2010 forum).  I met my husband later in life (at 39) so having children came pretty late for me.  I always wanted children and was beyond thrilled that I was able to conceive my son quickly.  This one took much longer but again I am over the moon that I finally got that BFP - I was really beginning to doubt that it would happen.  Now if I can only stop worrying- I find that I am worrying more this time around, largely because of my age. I am due Oct 12th.

Hello all!  I'm 33 and have a little boy who will be 2 in April.  I am pregnant with our 2nd and due Oct. 24th from my calculations.  I am not sure how accurate that is since I haven't yet been to the Dr.  My son was conceived via IVF and this time I conceived naturally!!!  Completely shocked but very nervous as to what is to come.  Just praying that I have a sticky BFP!!

Hi I'm 32 and have a 2 daughters 12 and 6 so this is number 3. We were kind of ttc for 4 years with nothing happening so this BFP is a bit of a shock.  We are originally from UK but moved to Germany last July. I don't speak any German so I'm pretty nervous how everything with doctors works here. I haven't been to a doctor yet but from my LMP I should be due October 16th.

Hi everyone.
I am almost 28, am in my 6th week and I also have a son who turns 4 in April. We are expecting his sibling to arrive on Oct 11, but am waiting for an ultrasound soon as my doctor believes my date could be off by 6 weeks. Possible breakthrough bleeding in Jan, that I assumed was a period, may alter my EDD... so I may actually end up joining the Aug group instead with a due date of Aug 24.
I feel I am most likely correct with the Oct date as I recognized my first pregnancy at 5 1/2 weeks, and recognized this one at 4 1/2 weeks... I find it hard to believe that I hadn't noticed until 10 1/2 weeks, but I don't have morning sickness like I did with my son (vomiting/nausea were constant with my first. Threw up religiously from before I knew I was pregnant right up until the end of my Emerg C-section)
