OMG...Newbie, I'm scared to post--just got attacked on another forum!
Hi I'm a newbie, TTC. I'm trying to find a forum where I can ask questions without getting attacked, cussed out,etc. I tried the TTC forum on here, which basically got my heart rate up b/c rude, low-class people decided to try to run me out of town, belittle me, etc.--FOR ASKING A QUESTION! Well I'm a tough mommy-to-be and will try this one more time...any nice women out there??

Look, you asked a silly question, you did actually get some helpful advice - ie: post on a board where the majority of people are pregnant rather than on one where nearly no one is pregnant since your question was about being pregnant.
Yes, you got a little snark. It happens. It's a public message board. But you flipped your lid instead of ignoring it. We are happy to welcome you on GP. We are a great bunch of girls with a LOT of useful information. You would be amazed how much you can learn there. Lurk for a while and you will see. Just ignore the stuff you don't want to hear, get a little thicker skin, put your big girl panties on and you'll do just fine over there.
Seriously, I wish you the best of luck.
eh, thanks. I didn't ask a silly question. I asked A QUESTION. I placed it on the wrong board, so sue me. If I can't ask a question, how will I know. I just don't appreciate being yelled at by someone who A. doesnt know me and B. can't talk to me like a person. Yes, it is a public message board, but that doesnt give any one the right to create an argument over something so small. I can't ignore that. If someone is going to try to bully me (on a message board, none the less), then I dont want any part of it.
Thanks for finding me & writing me back, lol. I just think these boards need to be more supportive. We are all moms or moms-to-be & we should treat everyone with class. I don't know if I'll stay on these boards, this is insane!
Asking about being able to feel pregnant 2 days after conception is a silly question, but whatever. I won't debate that with you - it's a matter of opinion. You clearly are internet savvy so I'm sure you understand that you can avoid asking potentially silly questions but doing a little research first.
No one created an argument with you and no one tried to bully you - someone expressed an opinion in a way you didn't like. We've both said it - these are public message boards. You are going to get all kinds and you can't control what people say to you. If you can't deal with potential negative remarks then perhaps you're right and these message boards aren't for you.
But I truly believe if you stick around and get to know people, lurk, read posts and get a feel for the board, you will find an incredible group of very supportive women.
*sigh*.
it is not a silly question. My dad is a doctor, we have family friends that are OBGYNs--I have asked this question to them, and they say--YES, on a person-to-person basis, it is possible & have had patients who have. I was merely trying to get a first-hand experience story from someone.
and yes, when someone writes "FFS" on my post--that is trying to start an argument. I don't appreciate it & I will voice my opinion on something directed negatively towards me.
I will stick around...but, I'm just letting whomever comes at me like that know that they can't talk to me like that...this isn't high school.
You have to realize how it comes off when you post a question about being pregnant on a board where people are trying to get pregnant.
To answer your question: its impossible to have any symptoms that early.
Most really don't have symptoms until they miss their period. The "symptoms" (sore breasts, cramping) are very similar to PMS so its hard to tell.
Implantation doesn't occur until at least 6 or 7 DPO, so any 'symptoms' before that are what are called 'phantom symptoms'. People who are TTC and completely in tune with every little cramp, pang etc... will notice these 'symptoms' sooner than those who get pregnant by accident. (The show "I didn't know I was pregnant-- case in point.)
Also, Kdodge talks like that to everyone. It's not personal. And FFS is a 'term of endearment' coming from her.
Anyway, I hope you get some answers you're looking for and a message board to call "home".
yes, it was me who sought you out & asked you to post a reply to my question. *eye roll* if you didn't like my question & my choice of words, why bother with answering me?
kdodge, i'm not looking to gain an enemy. we can start fresh or you can keep trying to bully me. good luck to you in TTC.
To the OP, if you want to prevent people from following you from board to board (like whats happening here), please go to your setting and make it so that no one can see your board posts. Just a recommendation!!!!! Sorry you were attacked!!!!!!
