One of my good friends is TTC and I think it would be awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-988127 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 09:34:52 +0000 kjpugs 988127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a best friend who I call my "Twinner" and we've always talked about babies. She was married years before me but I was ready (and trying) for babies long before her. Turns out, she got pregnant 2 weeks before me!! When she told me I was both THRILLED and heartbroken- scared to feel "left in the dust." Little did I know I would find out I was pregnant 2 weeks later! It's been so great being able to bounce pregnancy thoughts off one another! It has really made my experience that much more enjoyable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-988124 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 09:31:51 +0000 Springtime 988124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! One of my friends just found out She is expecting, we are about 6 weeks apart! So excited our LO's will be close! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-988113 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 09:24:28 +0000 pinkpeony 988113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i WISH one of my friends was pregnant with me... i'm the only one out of my close friends... it would be nice to go through it together! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-988089 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 09:11:12 +0000 JessKas 988089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't really think about it before hand, but one of my friends was pregnant at the same time as me. She was about 6 weeks ahead of me, and it's been so nice to have someone to talk to about all the crazy pregnancy things! None of my other friends have babies yet, and they wouldn't know what I was talking about and I'm sure they wouldn't want to hear about it all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-988051 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 08:42:32 +0000 Dandelion 988051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It seemed like everyone I knew was pregnant the same time as me.</p> <p>It's still early, but I hope I'm one of the few this time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987650 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 21:20:45 +0000 delight 987650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My brother and SIL had their baby 7 weeks ago and my best friend had hers two weeks ago. I'm due this month. It has been awesome to go through this all with them. So far there have been two little boys. Can't wait to find out what my baby is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987631 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 21:05:15 +0000 MrsScottish 987631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have had 2 friends ask us when we are going to start trying because they would love to be pregnant/ have a baby around the same time. If it happens, it happens. I am not going to "plan" my life around it... as much as you can plan a pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987624 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 21:01:36 +0000 SweetMamaM 987624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eight of my friends had babies in the year before I got pregnant and three of my acquaintances are due Oct-Dec. No friends to my knowledge pregnant at the same time as me, but when the first trimester ends, someone might surprise me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987577 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 20:27:18 +0000 mrsbookworm 987577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it would have been great, but it didn't happen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987571 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 20:24:50 +0000 MrsTiz 987571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pui: haha yes. Anyone but SIL</p> <p>I have an acquaintance that's pregnant, she talks to me a lot more often now because she's a month behind me. She's really dramatic and is really hating her surprise pregnancy so far, so it's not quite how I wish it was </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987093 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 13:57:36 +0000 artsyfartsy 987093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH's best friend is getting married next month as they are going to have kids ASAP. I wish his soon to be wife was pregnant now so I can have another first time mommy to talk to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987090 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 13:57:20 +0000 mrsmate 987090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know any other way of being pregnant! My sister and I had our 1st DDs 5mo apart, and we are having our 2nd DDs 4mo apart. The first time around my SIL was pregnant, too. This time my next door neighbor is pregnant, due only 2wks ahead of me! It's so nice to have other pregnant ladies to be excited/commiserate with. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987065 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 13:33:50 +0000 googly-eyes 987065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't really think of it, but it would have been nice if it were a good friend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987038 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 13:15:01 +0000 Corduroy 987038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had several friends pregnant at the same time as me and I enjoyed it. I'd like it if it worked out again but I certainly wouldn't try arrange things that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-987010 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 12:44:47 +0000 Littlebit 987010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not pregnant, but I would love to have a friend or family member be pregnant at the same time! I'll be a first time mom, so I would imagine it'd be nice to talk to someone else in depth about what we're going through! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986987 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 12:28:55 +0000 lamariniere 986987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For my 1st my SIL was just a few weeks behind me, but we aren't close at all (geographically or in friendship). I also had a coworker have a baby 5 months after me, so we were pregnant for a little while together. </p> <p>This time, my SIL is pregnant again, but she's due 4 months before me. I also have one friend in my mom's group who is 3 weeks ahead of me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986966 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 12:10:01 +0000 jhd 986966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would like that but I doubt it will happen. Most of my friends from growing up had babies years ago &amp; also live far away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986943 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 11:53:14 +0000 Running Elley 986943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was pregnant with E there were 7 of us total pregnant or just having babies in our group of friends! It's been so fun!!! I don't have any pregnant friends or family members this time though. My BFF just got married in December so I'm still hoping she gets PG this year so my #2 and her #1 can be close! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986922 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 11:35:53 +0000 PurplePeony 986922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My best friend since we were 12 is due with her second baby a week before I'm due with my first. It's awesome! I just wish we lived closer to each other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986909 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 11:28:42 +0000 Kiki 986909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my close friends I met because we were all pregnant together (me with my 2nd, and most were on their firsts), several friends are pregnant again with me but we all will be moving within a year of their births, so they won't be close like S and her friends are. Hopefully some of us get stationed together at our next bases. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986894 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 11:21:51 +0000 travellingbee 986894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My best friend was a month behind me, but she lives across the country. Made me miss her even more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986873 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 11:11:59 +0000 heffalump 986873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I want lo to have friends her age! I do have a friend who had her baby a month after me, and my sister will be having her baby two months after me this time :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986851 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:57:18 +0000 Modern Daisy 986851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, my coworker was trying for her second my entire pregnancy but unfortunately it didn't work until just a few weeks ago. I'm so happy for her, but a little bummed that we won't be out on maternity leave together lol! </p> <p>I was praying my sister would NOT announce a pregnancy before or during my pregnancy though. She's really selfish and self centered so I know she would try to one-up me the entire time and organize family things and not invite me, like she did for her wedding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986846 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:50:36 +0000 lomom 986846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend from jr high was due the day after me. We reconnected when we were about 9 weeks pregnant (we had been fb friends and casually teasing each other about when we were going to have kids, we got married a few months apart) and she's been a huge source of support for me. I hope it happens that way again!</p> <p>SIL was pregnant too but 4 months ahead of me. We aren't close and have different parenting styles so we never really talked much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986833 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:39:17 +0000 marionberry 986833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I don't think it's selfish - I totally agree with you! I had two friends both due two months before me with this baby and while it was nice to share stories and things I felt at times I didn't really get to enjoy my pregnancy as much, as so many things were compared (weight, symptoms, etc.). I'd love to do it alone next time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986819 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:25:31 +0000 bunnylove08 986819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister and I were pregnant at the same time. It was wonderful to have a friend going thought what I was going through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986816 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:22:42 +0000 Ginabean3 986816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My BFF and I took our annual Vegas trip last year and both wondered why the other wasn't drinking...lo and behold we were both preggo! I was 3 months ahead of her though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986804 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:15:09 +0000 Boheme 986804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I thought it was fun! We have 5 new spring/summer babies in our circle of friends. I'm hoping it happens with our next LO too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-want-a-friend-to-be-pregnant-the-same-time-as-you#post-986794 Sat, 03 Aug 2013 10:09:16 +0000 citymouse 986794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I have been begging, pestering, gently reminding my friendsfor years that we should all have babies together. Now that most of us are trying/currently pregnant I have let up as too be sensitive in case anything were to happen like miscarriage or IF discovered. </p>
