Please read the newbie guide. It is against the terms of usage of this board to ask if you are pregnant. The only place you can post your pregnancy test on the 1st Trimester board in the thread titled "what does a positive pregnancy test look like?"
And for the love of all things holy, STOP taking HPTs apart. No one wants to see wet strips

@bb2july8 You have a history of 5 discussions (2 of which I can't see so they're either in PGs or got deleted) and a whopping total of 3 replies. And 2 of the 3 discussions that I CAN see are either against TOU or SS posts. You've been around since November 2018, so I'm not sure why you can't figure out the guidelines and culture around here.
Sorry chat rooms aren’t a hobby of mine so I don’t read guid lines about cyber etiquette. Figured if it wasn’t allowed I couldn’t even post? Just looking for opinions not here to try and work my way up to the top so I can post to my online friends 😁
I was wondering what those wack-a$$ pregnancy test strips were. Seriously, you took them apart? That should be your first clue that you're doing this wrong.
And @stassischroeder gets the Super Sleuth of the Year Award. Bravo!

Cool cool cool.
I guess rules and guidelines don't apply if something isn't your hobby. Did you walk into an OB office waiving your pee sticks around? Oh, you didn't? WHY NOT???

Normal humans support other humans regardless(unless it effects them). What hurt does it do to be nice to people online? It’s not very welcoming here so I’m not sure I’d want to be friends people who find is so hard to be nice. Ya know?

Let’s talk about normal humans for a second here. Most normal humans understand that they get in trouble when they don’t follow the rules. On the internet, the punishment for not following the rules is gifs and mocking. See normal reaction from normal humans to this post. Also, most normal humans are upset when people they don’t know come into their community and show them things they’ve peed on. This is an internet group, but it’s also a support group for women who are struggling to get pregnant. Why would you come into a support group of women trying to get pregnant and say, “Do you think I’m pregnant?” Normal humans might understand that that behavior could hurt someone’s feelings. That’s why there are rules, which you should read to show that you support other humans even if it’s not what you want to do, because that’s what normal humans do, right? We support each other and we are nice online so that don’t hurt other people’s feelings.
Loling again. So sorry I thought this was a pregnancy website. My apologies. I was unaware how online life is so real to some people. I see it now. Sorry for offending you with my pregnancy test. Explains the world we live in. People get offended by the most bizarre things these days. I have to get back to work. Thanks for the chat everyone! Xoxo
None really. I have maybe chatted in about 5 my whole life. Maybe come on every couple yrs if I have a question. Or just want opinions

Everyone has a struggle. Such is life. Maybe I have problems getting pregnant and I’m excited? You don’t know my problem or story but it’s not your job to hide your praise. I’m not selfish enough to make it about me when someone else has joy that isn’t mine? I most certainly have my own struggles that most people don’t. But I don’t lay that on others.
