I’ve been a lurker for a while (3rd cycle TTC) and post rarely. I am sooo impressed with this particular board in the PP. Here we all are, most of us “trying” to get PG. And on this particular board we get lots of “Am I pregnant?” posts, many from people who I think hope they are not PG. Young girls, bad relationships you name it. But I have never seen a Negative response to any of them. There is always help, non judgmental help, questions are answered, usually with a “I hope you get the result you want” or “I hope it turns out the best for you” I just think that its soooo amazing that people who are “chasing the stork” (remember that commercial LOL) can still be so helpful and non-judgmental to those in other situations.

That being said, tomorrow I am officially “late”. I am a short cycler (I don’t think that is even a word), LMP was on the 5th, so I should have started before the 1st. I have only once ever made it past my LMP and that was just a strange AF years ago. This morning I have brownish pink tinged CM so things are not looking too hopeful and NOW I understand why people go late but don’t test. I’m afraid to test that it will come up negative. So I’ll wait a few more days to see what happens. I am very emotional, saw a cute little old lady yesterday that looked like my hubby’s deceased grandma and welled up at the resemblance, Hubby came back from a fishing trip yesterday and said “How’s the Baby” (knowing that I’m “late”) welled up at that LOL.

Ok I’ll stop rambling now, but I did want to point out how great I think this board is, because I have seen other boards here be a bit “judgmental”.

Totally agree with you, this is a great board. I rarely post myself, but I jump in once in a while to see how everything is going. I am sure that I will be stuck here once my husband and I ttc. Next year! and I can't wait. Wishing you the best...

I wholeheartedly agree with the previous posts. My DH and I have been TTC#1 for 5 months, and although I have lurked more than posted, I have found great information and support on this board in particular. I have lurked on the TTC Board, but find this one much more informative. Thank you to everyone who is willing to listen to obsessive little me!

You are so right. This board is exceptional. The best I have seen on PP. I am on several other boards where the people are down right rude and serious trouble makers. It is really sad b/c I made so many friends on this board. Even though I am pg, I like to hang around. I'm glad someone else finds it as special as I do.

You guys are right!!! It took me awhile before I would actually put up a post. I was afraid that someone might not want to help me, or be rude (not that I care, I've just been pretty emotional lately). I am having a good time while going through this "tramatic" time. :):):)
