Success after IF
Can I add something?
Regarding last nights posts: I am reading them all now and I'm a little disappointed at the board. We all say we aren't here to judge and that we always welcome people with open arms. I get the point on how it's annoying when people post like crazy and disappear. I don't know if anyone feels that way about me, and if so, I'm sorry. I have never been good with words, or a popular person IRL, so I guess that carries over to my online life as well. Sometimes I don't have anything to reply to a post, or don't know what to say. These days, Sophie takes crappy 1/2 hour naps so during that time I do stuff around the house and even though I do check-in on the board, if she's awake I feel guilty because I know I could be spending the time with her. When DH comes home he loves hearing about the girls on the board, but he gets annoyed if I'm on at night and he's trying to sleep. So I'm time constrained. I love all of you, and it's great seeing the new faces and I do hop on during the day to keep up with everyone. I just don't feel like I have much to contribute these days, since Sophie is a little developmentally behind, she's not up to the other 8 months old here, so I don't have any insight to offer. We aren't actively ttc #2 until after our vacation in June, so I don't have anything to say about that either. I will try and be a better responder though! Don't kick me out, LOL.

Re: Can I add something?
i know when i first read the peeves my initial response was "oh no, when the babies are here i'm going to disappear for a while and be hated" and then "oh no, i'm an AW", etc. i think it's human nature to take things personally like that. but i think as the posts went on people elaborated and made it clear that they were only referring to a couple people who have apparently completely went away, ie never ever ever here, so def not people like you!!!
i think some people just needed to get that stuff off their chests
but i hope we can all just use it as an opportunity to learn how our actions and reactions affect others and maybe make changes (or not!

You know what? I am feeling angry, bitter and bitchy today(and last night) and hopefully I will be forgiven, but having IF means I can never vent? Why is that? Why can't I get something upsetting and even painful off my chest without being told we are mean?
I am supportive of everyone around here, I make a point to answer as many posts as I can, and I am also always trying to open up dialogue, even if it is silly posts or random thoughts... I am ignored, too. But I do it anyway, because I really do believe you can only get out of it what you out into it. So I think if I am having a bad day, week whatever, I can let it out and people still know that I am the same person who was nice to them yesterday or last week.
And if you read the pet peeves post, you for sure are not who was referenced in our leaving for good vents. With the exception of the one person I mentioned, we didn't mention names because we don't know who each other is referring to! It is not any of you, because if it was, you would have not been here to read it! Please don't feel bad, it is not you.
Now I am going to close my computer and try to get out of this awful mood I am in. I might be back later, but I am going to try not to post on the nest at all, except the post the 6-12 POTW entry. (I have an obligation to do that, so I can't log off and get over myself entirely)
