Congratulations to all you ladies!! i cant believe I even made it here this month. February was a brutal month for us and we literally only BD'd 3x in February, but guess we did time it right.
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? Started lurking and commenting in January. Didn't get in much in Feb due to a crazy stressful personal life.
*How far along are you? 5 weeks 3 days I think
*Which birth month board/due date? EDD is Nov 4th or 5th
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Havent even begun to think that far.
I absolutely apologize. This wasn't intended to be an LOL by any means. I would never intentionally do that. I really am sorry to have offended you all. Forgive me for believe that I did join in more than one conversation. Clearly that was my mistake for not realizing I was not as active in The Bump as I was another forum. Also forgive me for being excited that we had been trying but things got thrown off my by father who by the way is only 49! Having a stroke that completely disabled him. Sorry that took precedence over focusing on conceiving a child.
I get that I screwed up and am sorry. I thought this was the place to post things like this. Sorry I didn't read all the rules clearly. My bad. I wish all you ladies the best.
Sorry, that I was thankful we were successful after not having been successful when we were really really trying.

QFP. This is the most disgusting "Sorry not sorry" response I've seen in a while @Jrl10051 We don't care that you weren't active on here. That's fine. It's NOT fine that you COMPLETELY disregarded very clearly spelled out rules and hurt a bunch of people.
And to the bold - wtf are you even talking about? You went off BC in January and you were KU in February. And in a separate board you claimed you were NTNP in January anyways - making February the first month you actually tried.

On January 28 you said:
"We just started "not preventing not actively trying" this is my first
cycle off birth control. Honestly hoping AF doesn't come this week. I'm
looking to make some career moves and I want to get pregnant sooner than
later in order to make the moves as easily as possible. My son turned 1
January 10th. I didn't want them too close but I definitely was them as
close to 24 (or a little less) months apart as possible for a number of
reasons, but a big one is so that I can do all the stages as relatively
smooth as possible. I don't think I could have a full on toddler stage
child running around and go back to newborn and diaper stages. My kid is
already running. Yes running."
One month = "really, really trying"?

@Jrl10051 We can see your post history. You posted on this board once and had zero interactions with other posters. Imagine if you ran into a support group for women trying to get pregnant and shouted you got pregnant by barely trying. It would be rude AF. This is the same. ALSO, don't woe is me about how you tried for so long. WE CAN SEE YOUR POST HISTORY. You tried for less than 2 months. Gimme a break.

Sorry about your father, but what the heck does that have to do with you barging into a room of strangers having a reunion hoping we'd celebrate for you?

you're welcome to judge me. That's fine. Y'all are doing it anyway. I can not imagine what it's like to have to struggle month after month. But I will not apologize because I didn't struggle. That's what all these slams at me are asking for. So go ahead delete me. Block me delete my post.
@KirstinH88 oops, I removed Shaunessa from my tag list in case it's copied and pasted. Not sure where I got her name....I went through TTGP grad posts on BMBs but I don't remember if April had one (few months earlier than August had TTGP checkins that I could find easily)...if they did maybe she just happened to comment in on one since she knows you guys from the BMB? otherwise I have no clue how I got her mixed in.

NO ONE CARES THAT YOU DIDN'T STRUGGLE. If that's what you're walking away with then you're really, really missing the points being made here. No one gives two craps that you're pregnant - that's the point. We don't know OR care about you.
The thing that offended us is that you barged in, didn't read rules, and then lied to us.
@Jrl10051 - Are you an actress? You are so dramatic. You got caught in a lie and you're acting out. A second ago you really really tried and now you just admitted you didn't struggle.... soooo.... ? The point is, stop being a jerk and admit what you did was wrong and then go away. That was so rude to people like, oh, I dunno, me? Who has been trying for a while and to see you "really, really" try, succeed, boast about how damn easy but also hard for you, and the act like we care? Uhm. No.

WTF is wrong with you!!!! None of that was a genuine apology! Every single response you gave was loaded with sarcasm!
You came crashing into this established community of women actively trying to get pregnant, many of whom are struggling to some degree. You wave your BFP in our faces as if we actually care about you after you completely disregarded the rules that are CLEARLY POSTED!!!!
Andplusalso 2 months is not really really trying. I have been trying for 9 months, there are other ladies on here who have been trying for 12, 14, 28 and even over 30 months! That is what I call really really trying! We are doing more than just "accidentally" having well timing intercourse with our husbands. We have night stands and medicine cabinets that look like pharmacies because of all the vitamins and supplements we are taking in hopes that it gets us the baby that we all so desperately want! We are doing things like giving up caffeine and eating things like pineapple or drinking pomegranate juice, neither of which is all that appetizing. When you struggle to that kind of degree and you end up sobbing uncontrollably in your husband's arms because you just had another failed cycle then come back here and talk to us about really really trying. You obviously have no idea what that's like.
Please don't come back to the TTGP board, we don't need any more of your "apologies."

@Jrl10051 You're determined to get this wrong. So let me take another swing at setting this right.
We do not care that you did not struggle. We do not care that you are currently KU.
We care that you failed to read the rules. We care that even after you read the rules you lied to us and said you were active on here. We care that then you lied and claimed that you DID struggle to get pregnant... when you obviously did not.
TL;DR - Things we care about - people breaking the rules and lying. Things we don't care about - people we don't know getting knocked up.

No, see, we're not upset that you didn't apologize for being fertile. We're upset that you barged in here and waved a BFP in our faces, then wrote a "sorry not sorry" non-apology. You can apologize without equivocation, but none of your posts did that.

We don't care that you're pregnant and that's not what's upsetting us. It's the fact that you barged onto this board with no regard for the rules and then when you were called out on it, you refuse to offer a sincere apology for hurting all of the amazing ladies on this board!!
At this point all we're judging you for is being a bitch!

Dont you EVER apologize to someone struggling to have a baby that you are sorry you didn't struggle as well.
That is the most demeaning and offensive thing I have read in a long time.
Not one person here needs your sympathy that they struggled and you did not. No one is upset about your lack of struggle they are upset about your lack of couth.
Now, insert an F-bomb between every third word and you can get the picture of what I'm saying and how I'm trying to say it.

*TW siggy*
As PP have said, no one is upset you are pregnant or that you didn't struggle for it. Everyone on this board celebrates pregnancy and it's so great for you that you didn't struggle. What kind of woman would wish fertility issues on another? None on this board, that's for sure. What is upsetting is that you didn't read any of the rules or get to know these women at all. If you had, you'd know this was insensitive. It's like walking into a room full of women you don't know well, some of whom are pregnant, some of whom have been trying for a long time and are having trouble, some of whom have had losses, and announcing you are pregnant. It would be really weird and rude and hurtful. You did the internet version of that.
Congratulations on your pregnancy, pregnancies are wonderful but no one here needs to know about yours. Just apologize sincerely and move on. Or at the very least, stop coming back with rude and snarky comments! If you're thinking about the November BMB...good luck.
Saying you "really really tried" is an insult to all of us who have been breaking our backs for months and YEARS....my eyes are rolling so hard I can see the back of my head!

You came crashing into this established community of women actively trying to get pregnant, many of whom are struggling to some degree. You wave your BFP in our faces as if we actually care about you after you completely disregarded the rules that are CLEARLY POSTED!!!!
Andplusalso 2 months is not really really trying. I have been trying for 9 months, there are other ladies on here who have been trying for 12, 14, 28 and even over 30 months! That is what I call really really trying! We are doing more than just "accidentally" having well timing intercourse with our husbands. We have night stands and medicine cabinets that look like pharmacies because of all the vitamins and supplements we are taking in hopes that it gets us the baby that we all so desperately want! We are doing things like giving up caffeine and eating things like pineapple or drinking pomegranate juice, neither of which is all that appetizing. When you struggle to that kind of degree and you end up sobbing uncontrollably in your husband's arms because you just had another failed cycle then come back here and talk to us about really really trying. You obviously have no idea what that's like.
Please don't come back to the TTGP board, we don't need any more of your "apologies."

We do not care that you did not struggle.
We do not care that you are currently KU.
We care that you failed to read the rules. We care that even after you read the rules you lied to us and said you were active on here. We care that then you lied and claimed that you DID struggle to get pregnant... when you obviously did not.
TL;DR -
Things we care about - people breaking the rules and lying.
Things we don't care about - people we don't know getting knocked up.
No, see, we're not upset that you didn't apologize for being fertile. We're upset that you barged in here and waved a BFP in our faces, then wrote a "sorry not sorry" non-apology. You can apologize without equivocation, but none of your posts did that.

Dont you EVER apologize to someone struggling to have a baby that you are sorry you didn't struggle as well.
That is the most demeaning and offensive thing I have read in a long time.
Not one person here needs your sympathy that they struggled and you did not. No one is upset about your lack of struggle they are upset about your lack of couth.
Now, insert an F-bomb between every third word and you can get the picture of what I'm saying and how I'm trying to say it.

As PP have said, no one is upset you are pregnant or that you didn't struggle for it. Everyone on this board celebrates pregnancy and it's so great for you that you didn't struggle. What kind of woman would wish fertility issues on another? None on this board, that's for sure. What is upsetting is that you didn't read any of the rules or get to know these women at all. If you had, you'd know this was insensitive. It's like walking into a room full of women you don't know well, some of whom are pregnant, some of whom have been trying for a long time and are having trouble, some of whom have had losses, and announcing you are pregnant. It would be really weird and rude and hurtful. You did the internet version of that.
Congratulations on your pregnancy, pregnancies are wonderful but no one here needs to know about yours. Just apologize sincerely and move on. Or at the very least, stop coming back with rude and snarky comments! If you're thinking about the November BMB...good luck.
ETA: grammar matters.
