I like I said, the second line was very faint, so I'm not sure if it's a BFP or not but thanks for making me feel like Sh!T for asking a damn question. I apologize for getting involved in your little "family". Please forget I even asked. I'm outta here!!!!!
You make TTCAL sound like the mafia, which for some reason makes me giggle.
It sounds like you are! Congrats! this is wonderful news! I'm at the start of my TTCAL (just two weeks away from d&c), and it's always nice to see good news stories. I hope I get to be as blessed as you are with a quick BFP.
Now of course you get to move to the PGAL board, but I appreciate reminders it CAN happen. I have no "family" on this board, I post and reply on my own, so for me I'm happy to wish you well as you move on in your process of bringing home a baby. good luck!
I know our lives are difficult after a loss. It's nothing we ever want to deal with again. I've come to understand many of the rules on this board, but this one I just don't understand. If we are all working towards the same thing, why would you not be happy for someone else who is lucky enough to get there? I mean seriously... if these women can't pull themselves up enough to at least wish someone well as they move to a different board then this is not the place for me. I'll give them the inability to handle the reminders of their own m/c's, and not posting about anything related to a m/c. But my God... once you actually get your BFP after TTCAL you're not allowed to tell anyone who has helped you along the way? this is ridiculous. You girls need to grow up.
where's the group on this board who feels the way I do? Maybe I'm alone, but maybe not.
anyway... good luck to you!

That's the point, here. She posted a BFP on a board she has not been active on. Therefore, she has not given nor received help on this board. We are MORE THAN HAPPY for people who are on this board when they announce their BFPs.
If you want to post support, please feel free. No one is telling you that you can't. But don't criticize others (again) for voicing their opinions as well.

You would honestly be happy if a complete stranger walked up to you and said, "I'm PREGNANT?!?!?!?!" It would give you "hope?"

You just don't get it and it's really starting to annoy me. We are happy when girls who have been here, introduced themselves and supported us as we have supported them announce a BFP. We do not need a stranger running in here and saying yay I'm pregnant and running out. This isn't some random board of strangers. If that is what you are looking for post elsewhere. This is a community of people who make the effort to know what each other have been through and supported each other. Many of these girls have been a support to me since the day I started to m/c and we have all been through hell together. We are friends, not random strangers. Maybe you should just go away with the goats.

You're right, I don't get it. This is just weird. But I do now see that it's all about introducing yourself and getting the approval from the rest of the group to start posting. The fact that you see her as a stranger... I get that, and no it wasn't the smartest thing for her to do. Agree with that. But I just don't understand the excessive fun that is made of someone else. I mean you girls are funny, but someone said something about getting off a "horse b/c it's bad for the baby". I mean come on... that's just rude. And for who ever asked... I have clients call or email me all the time telling me they're pregnant. I also photograph pregnant women and new borns... and no it's not bull that I'm happy for them. I can do that.
I've been told to introduce myself, then I was told to not post anything until I lurke for a while, and now someone who followed those rules and just lurked for a while is lucky enough to get KU again. It's just excessive on this board.
I'd love for someone to do a study on the psychology of these message boards, b/c it is a gold mine! And what the hell is a goat?
i'm out. going back to reality. I really do wish you laides luck with TTCAL and a successful pregnancy after.

Lurk for a couple of days. Then POST. Don't lurk and then come back in four months or so because WE WON'T REMEMBER. WE DON'T KNOW HER. There are plenty of girls here who get their BFPs and we are over the moon for them.

It's basic common sence. You post an introduction, we have an idea of who you are... although if you don't commen support on other threads, i'll forget who you are.
You were probably asked to lurk, because of *silly* questions you asked. May not really be silly, but something you'd pick up on quickly by lurking. Lurking does not always mean don't post anything!
You comment, we get to know you better. The more support you give us, the better it is.
Clients =/= strangers
taking photos of newborns =/= strangers
These are things you do! Your clients must really feel a connection with you to tell you that news. And your job you do knowing it's going to happen.
Walking down the street getting a random OMG I"M PREGGO! is just wrong.
When we ladies get hit with something like that we need to let them know. Then we try to make light of the situation to make ourselves feel better. We were just hit with a bomb, and now feel like ***.
I'm sorry you feel this way about the board. I was just starting to get to know you.

Is this person serious? That is the most condescending bullsh!t ever "you girls need to grow up" How in the eff do you come into our group and tell us how we should behave? Shame on you. BTW its not the reminders of our m/c that upset us, it's twatwaffles like you that can go eat asshay that will probably flaunt your BFP in our faces in about two weeks.

How about, know your audience. Drive bys aren't welcome on any board. Since its not your first time reading a pee stick, maybe consider how ridiculous and thin your request for "help" seems (ie. attention whoreish). Not that we're not happy for anyone who has a bfp, but its just not the place. Please Goat somewhere else.

Seriously magpie? I suggested you head over to another TTC board in the other thread, but now I'm wondering if what you really need is to go back to The Knot or somewhere else that self aggrandizing is more celebrated. Since you are recently married, I'm trying to give you the benefit of a doubt that you just haven't fully exited the Bridal Vortex yet.
The "rules" here, as you call them, are not excessive. They are just common courtesy. If you want to see "good news stories" go look elsewhere. We're all trying to make our "good news" happen and would appreciate being able to do so without having our noses rubbed in our own (currently) empty utes. Quit it or go away.

Now of course you get to move to the PGAL board, but I appreciate reminders it CAN happen. I have no "family" on this board, I post and reply on my own, so for me I'm happy to wish you well as you move on in your process of bringing home a baby. good luck!
I know our lives are difficult after a loss. It's nothing we ever want to deal with again. I've come to understand many of the rules on this board, but this one I just don't understand. If we are all working towards the same thing, why would you not be happy for someone else who is lucky enough to get there? I mean seriously... if these women can't pull themselves up enough to at least wish someone well as they move to a different board then this is not the place for me. I'll give them the inability to handle the reminders of their own m/c's, and not posting about anything related to a m/c. But my God... once you actually get your BFP after TTCAL you're not allowed to tell anyone who has helped you along the way? this is ridiculous. You girls need to grow up.
where's the group on this board who feels the way I do? Maybe I'm alone, but maybe not.
anyway... good luck to you!
That's the point, here. She posted a BFP on a board she has not been active on. Therefore, she has not given nor received help on this board. We are MORE THAN HAPPY for people who are on this board when they announce their BFPs.
If you want to post support, please feel free. No one is telling you that you can't. But don't criticize others (again) for voicing their opinions as well.
You would honestly be happy if a complete stranger walked up to you and said, "I'm PREGNANT?!?!?!?!" It would give you "hope?"
I'm calling bvllshit. Big Time.
You just don't get it and it's really starting to annoy me. We are happy when girls who have been here, introduced themselves and supported us as we have supported them announce a BFP. We do not need a stranger running in here and saying yay I'm pregnant and running out. This isn't some random board of strangers. If that is what you are looking for post elsewhere. This is a community of people who make the effort to know what each other have been through and supported each other. Many of these girls have been a support to me since the day I started to m/c and we have all been through hell together. We are friends, not random strangers. Maybe you should just go away with the goats.
You are the bestest! lol (yeah I added a syllable)
We love and miss you Jillian (18w) and Peanut (6w). Welcome to our TAC miracle Jacob!
You're right, I don't get it. This is just weird. But I do now see that it's all about introducing yourself and getting the approval from the rest of the group to start posting. The fact that you see her as a stranger... I get that, and no it wasn't the smartest thing for her to do. Agree with that. But I just don't understand the excessive fun that is made of someone else. I mean you girls are funny, but someone said something about getting off a "horse b/c it's bad for the baby". I mean come on... that's just rude. And for who ever asked... I have clients call or email me all the time telling me they're pregnant. I also photograph pregnant women and new borns... and no it's not bull that I'm happy for them. I can do that.
I've been told to introduce myself, then I was told to not post anything until I lurke for a while, and now someone who followed those rules and just lurked for a while is lucky enough to get KU again. It's just excessive on this board.
I'd love for someone to do a study on the psychology of these message boards, b/c it is a gold mine! And what the hell is a goat?
i'm out. going back to reality. I really do wish you laides luck with TTCAL and a successful pregnancy after.

Lurk for a couple of days. Then POST. Don't lurk and then come back in four months or so because WE WON'T REMEMBER. WE DON'T KNOW HER. There are plenty of girls here who get their BFPs and we are over the moon for them.
It's basic common sence. You post an introduction, we have an idea of who you are... although if you don't commen support on other threads, i'll forget who you are.
You were probably asked to lurk, because of *silly* questions you asked. May not really be silly, but something you'd pick up on quickly by lurking. Lurking does not always mean don't post anything!
You comment, we get to know you better. The more support you give us, the better it is.
Clients =/= strangers
taking photos of newborns =/= strangers
These are things you do! Your clients must really feel a connection with you to tell you that news. And your job you do knowing it's going to happen.
Walking down the street getting a random OMG I"M PREGGO! is just wrong.
When we ladies get hit with something like that we need to let them know. Then we try to make light of the situation to make ourselves feel better. We were just hit with a bomb, and now feel like ***.
I'm sorry you feel this way about the board. I was just starting to get to know you.

Is this person serious? That is the most condescending bullsh!t ever "you girls need to grow up" How in the eff do you come into our group and tell us how we should behave? Shame on you. BTW its not the reminders of our m/c that upset us, it's twatwaffles like you that can go eat asshay that will probably flaunt your BFP in our faces in about two weeks.

*THIS*
I'm usually really nice but...
You are annoying. NFT.
Ladies, we should really cut her some slack. If she's not smart enough to know a line means she's "preggo", how could she possibly know it's totally rude and insensitive to post about it here?

You know what, SCREW YOU!!!! I am sorry I posted this in a place it was not welcome. I have not posted much on this board b/c I was having a very heard time coming back to post after my m/c. I am sorry if I ruined your day. Belive me I am NOT posting anything on the bump every again. I can't believe that people would lash out like this. Again I AM SORRY FOR POSTING ON THE WORNG BOARD! Get over it ladies, I made a mistake.
By the way, I have been reading the wonderful things that have been posted on this board in the past which did help me to move on and TTC. But for this kind of reaction to take place on a board that is suppose to offer support, I don't know what to say. You all don't own this message board, and you can't dictate who can and can not post on here. I'm sorry I did not introduce myself first before I asked my questions. I have learned my lesson.

Seriously magpie? I suggested you head over to another TTC board in the other thread, but now I'm wondering if what you really need is to go back to The Knot or somewhere else that self aggrandizing is more celebrated. Since you are recently married, I'm trying to give you the benefit of a doubt that you just haven't fully exited the Bridal Vortex yet.
The "rules" here, as you call them, are not excessive. They are just common courtesy. If you want to see "good news stories" go look elsewhere. We're all trying to make our "good news" happen and would appreciate being able to do so without having our noses rubbed in our own (currently) empty utes. Quit it or go away.
I think I just pee'd my pants reading this. I love you girls.
Why couldn't they just spend the money to stop the Bump-burps? It would make more sense!

Would you like some goat cheese with that whine?
Why are you getting p/o'd at the ladies? They tried to be nice and redirect your question to a more appropriate board. You just keep stirring the pot. I've counted a few times where you same "I'm outta here" etc. Just leave then!
