I always just type in community.thebump.com and it takes me to the message boards. That might help out!

ETA: I don't have a FFC right now. I need to think about it.

 Save the TTGP page as an internet favorite and you can bypass all that; at least that's what I do.

I wore a t-shirt to work today even though it's against the dress code because my boss is away and it's going to be entirely too hot to be dressed up.

I lurk on the birth month boards on fridays to see the bloat/bump pics.  I want a bump

-I think it's stupid to have 4 or 5 women rush to see who can be first to post that someone DD'd. I seriously roll my eyes when I see 4 threads about the same DD.

-I think that when some one posts a GBCB it would be better to ignore them instead of 100 people answering with 'you don't know these girls like I know these girls! You won't be missed!" or something similar. I mean think about it. If someone is crying that we are mean and they are leaving it would be more of a who the fvck cares if you just ignore it.

-I sometimes panic and think why the hell am I TTC! How can I possibly love another person as much as I love my son. I know it's not true and I will love another baby just as much but I just can't imagine doing so sometimes.

I hate when parents name their kids something with some jacked up spelling just so they can be 'unique'.

I don't understand the fascination with Lady Gaga and think she just looks like a nasty tranny.

I'm getting tired of seeing negative OPKs and am wondering if I did miss my surge (I know, I know - I should be temping).

KLN1179

I am upset with my DH and he doesn't even know it!  He is a night owl and literally stays up until 5 am and it is messing up my 3 straight hours of sleep to be able to get good temps!

This is what I did. But, it's not that I hate seeing the happy faces (I'm sort of detatched from that (DH says I ahve no emaotin)), I'm just too lazy to go thru all the mouse-clicks to get to the TTGP board.

My confession: I'll be in NY this weekend (sans DH) and I'm soooo excited

Kathy4678

We've recently discovered that we *might* have some MFI going on. DH won't tell me that he's upset about it, but it's all over his face and it makes me so sad. I'm having trouble helping him out with it. He's going to the urologist on July 1st so we're crossing our fingers for good news.

mrs.conananan

I am scared that my sister will have her baby before my DH and I are even pregnant!  She is due in December and that would be the one year mark for us!

I hope you are like Mchupie and get your BFP before that appointment!

I am so with you on this. I don't have anyone close to me who is pregnant right now, but on these boards I see my pregnant  friends and think "Goodness, I hope I am pregnant at least before she gives birth"...when the fried is 4 weeks along at most. Ugh.

-I confess - I think I love you after reading this. AMEN!

-It is 7 in the morning here, I haven't even had breakfast.  I am already daydreaming about what I will have at the restaurant I want to go to fo dinner.  DH does not know that he will be eating there yet, however imo he has no choice in the matter.

I lurk way more than I post lately. And I usually don't respond to posts that already have a bazillion replys, unless it is a BFP post, most likely b/c I don't want to interrupt someone else's convo. Weird, I know!

 

jesselayne8

I have already picked out the present I am going to buy myself next time AF comes.

cozylittlecave

I woke up to see that a lighthearted post from late last night turned into some strong opinions this morning! I wonder if I never should have posted it... I think I ruffled some feathers & certainly wasn't judging or intending to...

MuseumMaven

Every time someone posts on here about seeing pregnant women and it upsetting them, I feel bad because I DON'T feel that way and I get concerned that I don't want to have a baby as much as they do.

 I am using CD1 as an excuse to eat whatever the hell I want, no matter how bad it is for me.

I use running as an excuse to go to Dunkin Donuts, even though I know that I don't burn as many calories on the run as I eat/drink at Dunkin.

I'm going to convince DH that we need to go to the mall for running shoes tomorrow, no matter how little work we get done on the house.

~denise~

I can't wait until we TTC in August so I can post more. I don't post a lot because I don't have any insight into TTC and don't want to act like I do.

also I like kid leashes and I think they are a great idea in public, crowded places. My mom used them on us and I think some parents out there need to use them more often, including my in laws.

I keep plugging temps into my FF chart to see when I might O and we're not even TTC this month. I just want to know that my body is working correctly again!

SC1977

I haven't purchased new underwear in over a year, and I only bought some then for my honeymoon. All my lacy undies have holes in them now and I'm wearing some pairs that are 5 years old. I'm just too cheap to buy new ones. (Sorry DH).

I won $63 playing Left Right Center at Bunko last night and I'm going to use it to get sushi for lunch instead of saving it or using it for bills because I'm still bitter about that fact that I have no AF, even with the Provera. But I do still have like super PMS which is awesome. My confession is that if it were the other way around and DH won money and wanted to spend it on going out I would probably give him a lecture about not spending money because I am obsessed with being debt free and I want to pay my car off early so I can get a new one especially bc I let DH buy an awesome car and spend money on it. And yes I do mean I *let* him buy a car because I do our finances and he has no idea how much money we make or what we spend a month on bills.

As I was drying my hair this morning, I realized that, if I wait until day 60 to start Provera, It'll likely be August before I even maybe ovulate with Clomid - our one year mark TTC.

But moreover, my neighbor's baby will turn 1 year old before I even give birth - IF it were to happen for us on the first Clomid cycle. I never thought her kid would be that much older than mine. I had this fantasy that our kids would be super close in age. I know in the grand scheme of things, a year isn't a big difference at all, but when I think about it in terms of TTC, it seems like eons and felt overwhelming this morning.

I have a test today.  Instead of studying last night I perused the web looking at baby items (I know, cart before the horse).  Instead of studying today, I'm constantly refreshing the bump and seeing what I can find on Etsy.  I think my motivation and focus is lurking...

This! I think I'm just bored with all the repeat questions lately. There's no reason for me to answer them the same way 15 other people have. I definitely have noticed myself skipping over posts by SNs I don't recognize too.

barcelonagirl

i'm furious with dh right now.  so i'm not going to do any work all day, that'll show him (immature i know)

i hate youneek spellings and i'm pro kid leashes...

bookmark a post on the TTGP board. I NEVER see the homepage, I go straight to an old post and come here.

I spotted this morning and got super duper excited because it's day 6 or 7 after ovulation. You never know!

Exactly! Plus, it is summer, so I'm not on as often in the evenings, so I'll just pop-in and if there isn't much going on...ykwim?

Citygirl1015

I am seriously ready to blow up on my MIL. She is so self-centered, needy, and acts like our lives should revolve around her. Every little normal life occurance is turns into a big, dramatic, poor-me, stop what you're doing and coddle me, episode.

tosh24

I POAS today at 10 DPO because DH said he "wanted to know" (I told him it would likely still be -ve even if I was pg)....and of course, it was -ve.

Also, I am waving a finger at the man and bumping at work (I work for the gov't and am not supposed to be bumping at all)....I am feeling extra rebellious today since I'm in a grumpy mood. Usually I just lurk throughout the day. Hi ladies that I don't usually see in the evening!! ::waves::

Yep! Me too. I'm never on in the evenings. Too much going on.

A few days ago when I got AF I was trying to tell myself that it was ok. In my thought process I came to the realization that I was glad I wasn't pregnant yet because the timing of the EDD would be pretty bad. With each BFN our next EDD timing gets better and better.

THIS! This really was going to be mine! It messes up everything, so I've just stopped temping. It's very frustrating!! I tried setting my alarm for a time before he comes to bed, but I end up waking up and moving before I realize what's going on. This temping stresses me out way too much.

ManiacMcGee

I hate "unique" spellings too! I think it just makes you seem uneducated.

I told DH that I was thankful we didn't get PG this cycle so we could get our finances a little more under control and we can get closer to having the summer baby that we want.  He was heartbroken and I feel terrible.

LnR70707

- one of my BFFs was on here last night, I know she says they aren't ready to try for at least a few months, but I know she'll be KU before me and while I will be 100% thrilled for her, it makes me a little sad that I won't be the first of our friends to get pregnant.

- unless there are unique circumstances, I can't bring myself to congratulate someone who got KU on the first try, it is like congratulating someone for knowing how to dress themselves.

ManiacMcGee

One more thing. I HATE the term 'sticky baby' although I use it here.

Jess051907

I'm completely jealous that my BIL and his wife were able to: 

1. get pg on their very first try (no charting or anything) and

2. will be having the first grandchild in the family

They are younger than DH and I.  Ugh.

Emmerjill21

I really really want to POAS.  It is way to early and the chances of it being positive at any dpo are slim.
