I have never been around a group of women who are so nasty. You guys jump on everything! I'm sorry for your losses but that doesn't mean you suffer anymore than anyone else. I may have a child but you don't know how hard I had to try to have her. I'm done. Never have I been around a group of women who are so nasty. I guess the internet is right. The Bump women are rude.
I'm one "I feel sorry for your husbands/future children" square away from BINGO.

It saddens me to see how quick everyone is to just pile on when someone makes a mistake. After numerous people have pointed it out, people just have to keep shoving it in her face over and over. Trying to make her feel horrible, and then act upset when she feels the need to defend herself. Happens every time someone makes a mistake newbie post. It kept me from really joining in here when I tried, and I just stayed lurking instead. I'm sure there are plenty out there doing the same.

Umm... OP came in here, didn't introduce herself, didn't read or follow the rules. Everyone was extremely civil and directed OP to read the community rules... and also provided thoughtful answers to her question. One of our beloved and long time members gave OP some real talk but again, offered an opinion on the question. Then OP attacked said member at which point, ya, we got riled up.
OP these ladies have been nothing but supportive to you for the last two days while this thread has been alive. I personally linked the Intro thread for your reference as well. There were countless opportunities when you could have taken a peak, had a lot of your questions answered and joined in with the rest of us. The beautiful thing about this group of amazing, inspiring and strong women, is that everyone single one of them is different. Everyone of their journeys is different. Yet they are all very invested and supportive of each other, no matter the stage or path they are on. I think the point you are missing is that if you had actually joined in, and maybe invested a little time into someone else's, anyone else's journey, this would have turned out very differently for you. To get support, you also need to give support. It is absolutely a two way street.
@suchaglencoco So what because I have one child but now am having struggles while trying to have a second I can't have an opinion on this site? Are you freaking kidding me? So what because I have a child my struggles don't matter?
*STUCK IN BOX* Nooooopppppeeee. Not what I said at all. I'd try to further explain what I meant, but it doesn't seem you're open to it right now. Wish you the best on you're journey.

*lurker*
So...you're telling me that you had a hard time conceiving your living child but don't realize that complaining about a living child to other women who may be struggling to conceive is like a kick in the gut to them? It's like walking into a room full of starving women and then complaining that your cake is stale.
Also, it's probably a bad idea to play the comparative suffering game on this board.
ETA: That's the last time I come out of lurking to say something nice. Flamings only from now on.

@suchaglencoco So what because I have one child but now am having struggles while trying to have a second I can't have an opinion on this site? Are you freaking kidding me? So what because I have a child my struggles don't matter?
I am new here as well and I was a bit intimidated at first
too. I lurked (read thread's without posting) and I read the Newbie guides
(which tells you what things mean), and I introduced myself. I have wrote
things that when I reread them they sounded harsh, so I apologized without a
"but." I have asked people what things mean. I have learned so much
that I know will come in handy on my TTGP (trying to get pregnant) journey.
No one in saying that because you already have a child that your opinion doesn't matter and that you aren't welcome. There are weekly threads dedicated to TFAS (trying for a sibling) that you could jump in on after you introduce yourself that has an awesome group of mom's that are TTGP, some I'm sure in the same exact boat you are in.
I hope that you do stick around because there are lots of wonderful people on here that have a lot of advice and support to offer.

I didn't mean to be rude or offensive to you all. I'm sorry for taking things badly and reacting. I'm sure that many of you have struggles I can't even imagine and I should never have implied that what you are going through is not important. Obviously it is. I let my emotions get the better of me and I got defensive and spoke harshly. I honestly didn't mean what I said and was just angry. I hope that those of you who were hurt by my comments can forgive me. I am also sorry for not doing things the right way. I didn't know I had done things the wrong way. I felt a bit overwhelmed when a lot of people started pointing out that I didn't follow the proper channels and I felt like you all were angry with me about it and again I got defensive. I know that many of you want me to leave now so I will but I felt I should apologize. I wasn't trying to make it seem like I am a victim because I am tired and overwhelmed right now. I was just trying to be real and share.
I'm always here for people who apologize sincerely to stay and hang so @Timbitvader join us in the dailies. We've all effed up at some point. We get over isht really quick if people apologize and then join the community. We just want to know you, and you to know us, before treating us like google/a magic 8 ball.

Oh Jesus. Get a freaking grip. You intro'd, brought back a zombie thread from 2.5 years ago, blew up over nothing (I mean, seriously, nothing: antoto literally was saying she thought it would be cool to keep the thread going, and then said we couldn't give you success stories because 99% of us are TTC #1 and you did a GBCB...), and then got your BFP like what - 5 weeks later? Let's not blow things out of proportion here. You GBCB'd when a regular literally went to bat for you and someone posted a freaking zombie gif. I'd hardly call that pointing out a mistake and "shoving it" in your face. GTFO.

I am new here as well and I was a bit intimidated at first too. I lurked (read thread's without posting) and I read the Newbie guides (which tells you what things mean), and I introduced myself. I have wrote things that when I reread them they sounded harsh, so I apologized without a "but." I have asked people what things mean. I have learned so much that I know will come in handy on my TTGP (trying to get pregnant) journey.
No one in saying that because you already have a child that your opinion doesn't matter and that you aren't welcome. There are weekly threads dedicated to TFAS (trying for a sibling) that you could jump in on after you introduce yourself that has an awesome group of mom's that are TTGP, some I'm sure in the same exact boat you are in.
I hope that you do stick around because there are lots of wonderful people on here that have a lot of advice and support to offer.

You can stay and play.
Do an intro & jump in. We might not forget easily, but we DO forgive.

This is the current intro thread:
https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/12715604/newbie-intro-week-of-8-28#latest
After that you just need to know if you're waiting to ovulate (WTO) or in the two week wait (TWW) i.e. Waiting for AF (Aunt Flo, your Period) and pick the thread with that abbreviation and today's date. They are known as the dailies.
If you're not sure ask in the Chart Stalk and Questions thread.
And like some ladies mentioned maybe you will find the Trying for a sibling (TFAS) weekly thread useful

I think I need a nap.
@Timbitvader - Apologies are awesome - introduce yourself, get to know the community, and stick around.
Also @cathyann4 :
Oh Jesus. Get a freaking grip.
You intro'd, brought back a zombie thread from 2.5 years ago, blew up over nothing (I mean, seriously, nothing: antoto literally was saying she thought it would be cool to keep the thread going, and then said we couldn't give you success stories because 99% of us are TTC #1 and you did a GBCB...), and then got your BFP like what - 5 weeks later?
Let's not blow things out of proportion here. You GBCB'd when a regular literally went to bat for you and someone posted a freaking zombie gif. I'd hardly call that pointing out a mistake and "shoving it" in your face.
GTFO.
