I was lurking on some of the babies boards ( 0-3, 3-6, 6-9, 9-12) and noticed that my (former) BFPB had her baby...and I didn't even know she was KU ! She kind of fell off the face of the Earth for a while and apparently got KU during this time. Another of my BFPB had her LO but I at least knew she was KU. She also fell off the face of the Earth when she got KU. I feel like IF has made me a leper or like I have some sort of contagious disease that just keeping in touch with me will cause you problems. ![]()
Also, while taking a walk down memory lane (the posts right around the time we all moved over here), I saw soooo many names of ladies I miss ! Since some of them never made the move, we don't see them in the graduate check-ins.
I feel like sending out a huge bat-signal just to see how they are all doing.
Re: I haz sad
I'm sorry you haz sad Mrs. Mo. Here is a lol cat to cheer you up.
Also, I sent you a PM.
It is so hard to see the ones that we are close to move on without us. I miss so many of the Lovelies on here. Many of my BFPs are celebrating 1st birthdays with thier LOs...it's devastating. Big hugs.
Yeah, I don't have a BFPB. I never got one but kind of wanted one at one time. Now, I realize I'm not responsible enough to be someone's BFPB. I can't even keep up with my own family's bdays much less someone else's life. Sometimes I can barely keep up with the board b/c I can only get online at work since I can't get internet at home.
I do miss a lot of the people that used to be on here. I also wish there was some way we could get updates from some of the long lost bumpies.
after anovulatory diagnosis and TTC for 1 1/2yrs with several medicated cycles and one chemical pregnancy, we have our first bundle of joy!
IT'S A GIRL!

A BFPB is a BFP ( big fate positive) Buddy. Basically, someone ( or a group or women) that root eachother on during the TTC process and are there for eachother at any time if they need someone to talk to. Generally, they get eachother a small gift once they find out the gender or give birth ( if they were team green).

Ditto. I understand that they are now at a different point in their lives but I would love to know how they ( & their LO's ) are doing ! I suffer from infertility, not some communicable disease (even though you can't catch even a communicable one over the interwebs). ::sigh:: I'm just missing everyone today and becoming bitter about it
I feel like the 8th grader whose friends are now in high school and no longer want to be seen with a middle-schooler.

It took 5 failed IUIs and a failed IVF, but our FET worked!
My pregnancy after Infertility Blog
Our baby girl was born on April 27, 2011!
I totally understand if they want to put their struggles behind them. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. We just miss everyone and like to know how everyone is doing as not everyone posts in the graduate check-ins
I'm not saying they HAVE to, but it's nice to see an old familiar face now & then. I would also hope they know that we are still here to support them, even though we are at a different stage than them.
