    I don't personally recognize the OP (which doesn't mean much because I tend not to pay attention to user names) but if she has posted on this board before and contributed fairly regularly, I am pretty sure she is more than welcome to share her happy news.

    OP: Congrats and hope you get your sticky baby Smile

     Congrats, OP. I remember seeing your siggy before.

    I suppose I am having a harder time with the BFP's of others lately. I also have not been trying as long as many others (5 months), so if I am feeling frustrated by it, I can't even imagine what some of the other ladies feel. I don't mean to take away from OP's original post, I think it is great that she is able to overcome miscarriage and years of TTC. I wish her the best.

    Polska, if you're having a hard time with the BFP posts, just skip them. I'm not saying that to be snarky. Generally it's not appropriate for people who haven't participated on the board to announce their BFP but we want to celebrate with those who have.

    OP, congratulations!

    We all want a bfp obviously, but if you don't want to read about other's bfp's , I'd suggest you just not click on them. People who are regulars will continue to post their excited bfp moments when they get them, as they should and there will also be more drive by bfp's to look out for!

    I would assume that when you get your bfp, you will want to shout it to the world (I know I will want to!), so you have to expect that others wish to do the same.

    Absolutely. Those are great points, and I see where you are coming from. However, I would still be cautious about who I tell my news to. But that's just me!

    I don't know of a single reg who hasn't posted their BFP when they get one. I'm on cycle 12 right now, and if I were to get my BFP this cycle, you can bet that I will announce it on here.

    Yah, I think posting it on the message board with internet "friends" and telling all your friends and family when you're only 4 weeks along are two different things. We will all be cautious how we spread our news in the real world, but I think posting it on a message board just so you're able to tell SOMEONE is different.

    Well, that's fine! I hope you get that BFP soon. I just have not seen OP before so I was a little caught off guard. I generally don't have a problem with announcements like that, but if I sense that I'm not having a good week, then I will stay away from those posts.

    Polska.... You keep apologizing, why? I agree with these girls, although I just joined so they probably don't really care, that you were inconsiderate of the original poster, BUT stop apologizing to these women.

    You ladies have a lot of experience, unfortunately mostly due to the amount of time you've been TTC, and I value some of the things I've learned from the one post I made and from lurking, but you are sooooo cliquey and just plain bitchy most of the time.

    I get that TTC is emotional, frustrating and, for some, a long process, but this board is not called TTC- more than a year and you must have posted X amount of times in order to comment.

    You are all adults that act like high school girls.

    Ever heard of kill them with kindness. If you're justified, as is the case with this post, let someone say it once and MOVE ON! Do you feel better now that you have ALL mocked or scolded the person who posted?!?  

    I bet I just made your day because now you all have more material.

    Anyways, don't waste your breath, I won't be returning. Not all, but a lot, of you are too intense for me.  Good luck TTC, I really do wish you all the blessing of a BFP and a H&H 9 months.

  • Congratulations! I hope this is another beautiful addition to you're growing family!
