I'm dyslexic and my grammar is crap, dose this mean if I have a question I should bother posting because il get judged for not using correct spelling and grammar. I know she didn't give much detail but to be honest I think she was just trying to get her worries out. I have done this before come on hear or another board and asked a question knowing that obviously I'm going to ask the health professional myself anyway just to see if anyone has been through a similar situation before. Anyway it just goes to show that it only takes one person to make an uncalled for comment to set all the sheep off. Enjoy going through my comment with your highlighters and red pen

Oh Lord. Many posters were trying to get more details out of OP to give her actual advice. Instead she flew off the handle about a non-issue and then so did you.

We're not health care providers. We can't answer those questions in a way that you should take seriously. If you're looking for support, or other women going through similar situations, we have check-in threads specifically for that purpose. In this particular thread, OP did get quite a bit of support, actually, as people tried to fully understand her situation.

Also, if your grammar is so bad that we can't understand the question or the situation, we doubly won't be able to help. I do think people got a little nitpicky in this thread, but we've had a lot of drive-bys the past few days, so the regulars are understandably a little frustrated.

Ladies, if we keep getting these drive by SS questions that should be directed at their doctors, do we get to buy white coats and change our names to Dr.LoHerrim or whatever? Will we receive framed certificates? I am excited about this possibility!

Yes! I think we should place a bulk order for our certificates and coats A.S.A.P. I can hardly wait!!

I still don't think there was a need for so many people to point out something that petty, I know everyone speaks different and sometimes isn't clear to everyone but come on we all have our flaws. And as I said I would think that most of us who ask these kind of questions are undoubtably going to ask their health care provider, just wanted to know if anyone else had been in a similar position.

Actually there are several of us who are. Just not her healthcare provider, or anyone's on the board for that matter.

I stand corrected! I still stand by all the rest of my comments. The Internet is a terrible place to go for medical advice.

I don't blame here for not coming back tbh. And I'm not the only one still commenting, it's just frustrating a simple "I'm sorry I don't understand your question, can you explain more" would suffice, not nitpick and I did see one person apologising but people were still jumping on the band wagon. Anyway it's a pointless disagreement I just wanted to say we are not all perfect and can't all have good communication skills, but we are all human and need some support and help sometimes :-)

Actually I did politely ask her to clarify more than once. If you'd read through the entire thread you'd have seen that.

Also, this obviously is not the only thread you've decided not to read thoroughly if you're insinuating that we don't offer each other "support and help sometimes".

Smh. I've about had it with this "new here just stopped by to judge you" shit today.

I did read the whole thread and iv read many others and posted a few times, I'm not a regular I check in once a week because I'm part of the pregnant after miscarriage group, also when I have posted I have had a lot of support witch I have appreciated but a few times had the odd person criticise my spelling, wording or gramma. It just disappointed me to see that's all. I have a good support group on FB but I still like to see how the other ladies from Pregnancy after miscarriage are doing.

The thing is that regardless of the reason for poor grammar, wording, etc., if I can't understand, I can't help. End of story. Can mocking it go too far in some cases? Sure. But I literally had to reread the OP four times just to get the gist of what she was saying, and then a few more times to make sure I understood her question. That isn't a condemnation; it's just fact. And then her subsequent responses seemed to be a little clearer, so I think she was probably in a hurry originally. All that to say that it's unreasonable to expect people to understand and/or help someone we can't understand. If we knew her in person it would be different. But there is only so much you can do on an Internet forum.

OP I want to offer another point that hasn't been offered yet....

Due dates don't mean a whole lot of anything, particularly if this isn't your first child and you have had previous preterm births. Most women go into labor two weeks before or two weeks after their due date. You are within that range with the May 26 due date. If you follow the June 26 due date then you are 35 weeks and you should still be aware that baby could come at any time because of your history.

You mentioned progesterone, are you doing the injections and if so, have you stopped them yet? Even if the doctors are able to pinpoint your due date, it will not predict when you will go into labor. I know that can be very frustrating but you will have a baby before you know it!
