Trying to Get Pregnant
Ouch!

Re: Ouch!
We do not know. Nor do I know why anyone would say something like that in the first place.
Who knows.. why would wannabe think that, and why would Quazi agree with it? You lumped yourself in with them when you quoted and said "LIKE LIKE LIKE".
No need to get up in arms.. all you have to say is you didn't see that and don't agree with it. End of story.
Have no fear, we're cool.
Now we're just waiting on the original "like"r... Because seriously, hitting below the belt is not cool. Ever.
No Pinkie Pie? No Rainbow Dash?
Hater! ;-)
Oh sorry. Let me rephrase that "Like." I do not like that you haven't gotten BFPs. In fact, I hope that you all get them soon because no one should have to wait as long as I know some of you have been waiting. So sorry for the misunderstanding.
What I like is the idea about not being mean to new people. I get it, we're dumb. But, everyone was dumb at one point and I think people turn to these boards for answers from people who have experience. When they are made fun of it is more difficult for them to be apart of the whole Bump experience, and whether it is their first experience or fourth experience, everyone wants it to be a good one.
And we will keep giving advice and information like we do every.single.day.
Seriously, you've gotta read posts in order to jump in and reply! Her comment was heartless--much worse than any snark or jokes made.
I know, right? I've actually done some work with Hasbro, but that's a story for another day.
I was a big Megan and Sundance fan back in the day. I loved the Sea Ponies, too.
Great minds!
SSC rocks... And she was created in Cleveland.

Did you get her the Sweet Surprise doll with the makeup or the one in the purse?
I dunno. I wouldn't be surprised though.
Have you seen the new Rainbow Brite?
NEW Rainbow Brite?? You mean they changed her?!!?!?
WTF!!?? That is not Rainbow Brite. She's had some major plasic surgery. I'm disturbed.
Thanks. I appreciate the support.
Good Luck! Let us know.
Agree. Too bad there isn't a place for us newbies to share support. We might not understand all of the signs and symptoms, but at least we would be happy friends....sunshine and rainbows included.
That's the great thing about being new here...I am blissfully unaware of previous "issues" on this site. I only know the way that I am treated, by anyone. I can only do my part to help support those who want it, while learning along the way.
I agree with you there. I don't think that aggressiveness or meanness (or whatever any of this is) = infertility. I consider myself a rather nice person and I'm infertile so....
I feel absolutely terrible that all of this nonsense is the result of my nipple question. I just wish things wouldn't escalate like this, especially in a place where there are potentially a lot of vulnerable women (considering what we have all gone through with TTC and one point or another). Maybe I'm too much sunshine and loli-pops, but can't we all just get along?
You've assumed that I am fertile. We learned three years ago that I am infertile and then, miraculously, in October, we got a BFP. We miscarried soon after a learned that there is a whole bunch of scar tissue in my fallopian tubes that stand in the way of a full pregnancy. We got excited, thought, "Hey, at least we CAN get pregnant" and doctor told us that no, in fact we cannot. He did not consider what happened in October a pregnancy so he still treats me for infertility. Maybe I'm fertile now, maybe not...only time will tell...but as far as medical records go, I'm infertile.
Thanks. Yeah, I'm aware that I'm a little on edge this cycle...working on it.
I was sexually abused and diagnosed with ovarian cancer all in the same year (2005) and the Oct. pregnancy gave us a lot of hope for the future. Instead of confirming that hope, Doctor instead did many tests and is now telling us that we have about 6 months of TTC until the possibility of a hysterectomy...so yeah, I'm a little anxious and I know that it is silly but every time that I have sore boobs or a queasy tummy, I have to hope for the very best...it's what keeps me going at this point.
I'm late to this post but wanted to jump in to say that I have that same doll. Yup, you didn't read it wrong...I STILL have it and randomly press her belly to smell the strawberries
"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." -- Dale Carnegie
"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time." --Thomas A. Edison
Here's the reality check--if everyone analyzed all of their phantom symptoms all of the time, we would talk about nothing else because we all have them--and more often than not, not preganant. If we analyzed and jumped on the bandwagon with every phantom symptom, we would get false hope too many times and be let down way too hard.
This is reality. Phantom symptoms appear and YES--we hope for the best--absolutely. We want every single person on this board to have a quick stay and a healthy pregnancy. But if we just repeatedly say "This is it! You're KTFU!" whenever someone reports a phantom symptom--well, we'd be lying.
That's reality.
Wish for the best, prepare for the worst. And don't drive ourselves insane in the meantime.
