TTC After a Loss

It makes me sad...

I feel like I don't know anyone here anymore. I was only AWOL for like 4 days because of the holidays and houseguest using my laptop in the basement having cyber sex on my computer with his woman or whatever it is they do all day. Since all the BFP's they've seemed to abandon us and I just feel sad.... I'm ever so happy they got their BFP's but why did they have to leave??? whyyyy????? come back to talk to us my friends because you love us not because you have tooooo....

Re: It makes me sad...

  • I know. I'm starting to feel so old. In TTCAL board age.
  • Loading the player...
  • I think it's always strange territory to get a BFP around here - on the one hand it's hard to leave the ladies you love so much but on the other hand it's hard to weigh your excitement/urge to discuss the BFP with the feelings of people around here.

    Still, there are plenty of TTCAL ladies who have BFPs and still post in these parts. . . I promise. 

  • I know! No one wants to play with us anymore Crying

  • You've been MIA lately, lady. But i think a lot of it is the holidays and people are traveling and whatnot b/c for the most part, it takes people a while to leave. They just can't get enough ;-)

    And God knows shellshocked is gonna have 4 kids over the age of 5 and still be posting here. Love you Allison!!!

  • my work put the kibosh on the bump/nest!!

    I can only post sporadically now.  WAH!!

  • I was out of town. . . the holidays really mucked up my plans.  And right now the kids are off school, so if I bump too much, they do weird things like draw goatees on each other and dress in drag. 

    But I'm here.  And I'm not going anywhere.  Have you BEEN to first tri?  That place is bananas.

    (Sing it, ladies)

  • Make new friends!! like me Big Smile
  • I'm still here!!

    I'm not knocking the new, I just know less about the newer people and some barely ever post.

  • I still post here (and a little on PgAL)... but I've been slow on my bumping lately.  Something about trying not to get fired... etc.  etc.  etc.

  • This reminded me of a song I learned in girl scouts:

    Make new friends but keep the old

    One is silver and the other, gold.

     

    But I hear ya, I miss some peeps too! What makes me even sadder is there are so many new people therefore so many new losses. Very sad...

    Oh, I know you're not knocking the new people.  I was just joking.  I am sorry you're feeling sad.  I hope that all of us that do post can get to know each other better.

    That's the other part of what I was trying to say but failed. Thanks for adding that in. I think lately I get more upset for others who are afraid of loss or having a loss than I do for myself. I never want anyone to go through that pain or go through it again!!!!

     Here is everyone still left....  This should help figure out everyone.  But I do miss the regular ladies who are KTFU now.

  • Thats kind of how this board progresses.  Every few months its another flood of ladies in and out.  Most ladies are only here for a few months before they get KU and move on to PgAL.  Others are here for a year or more without being able to move on.  I feel very sad for those ladies - myself included.  It has been hard to lurk over on other boards and see all your "original" TTCAL friends have babies already.  But don't get me wrong - I am so happy for them.  But it doesn't make the fact that I am still here any easier.

  • I can be your friend too! My posting is really random and sporadic, because I'm a student and a teacher and need to focus on my work a lot when I'm home. But I'm around.

    I'm here too!  It's really hard to know if you're still wanted or not.  I've posted a little on PAL, but I would miss everyone here too terribly much!

    Oh, and I'll sing it with you grr_aargh:

    That place is bananas!

    This.  I find myself posting less because I feel like I know less people on here anymore.  Well you know I'm here for you!

    I missed this post...The holidays were crazy...I am pretty new and will be here for quite some time I am sure.  TTCAL is up on my computer the entire time I am at work...I don't always get to respond but I try when I can!

    I'm Sandy, 29 years old, from NJ.  DH and I got married in 2004 and were HS sweethearts.  I went off the pill right after we got married.  We had difficulty TTC and went to an RE in Dec 2007.  Got my first BFP via IVF in Oct. 2008 and lost the baby in Nov 2008 at 9w 3d.  Got my second BFP in May 2009...twins...carried until 19+ weeks at which point I went into labor.  Cambridge came first followed by Sebastian 2 days later.  We are now TTC again on our own until we head back to the RE in March/April.  Hoping for a 2010 BFP on our own though!
