I love this board because I have met some awesome girls! Love u missycrissy! It gives me an outlet to talk about TTC without anyone IRL knowing who I am! GO TTGP ! And another exclamation for good luck !!
First of all I love all the information. I have learned so much since first coming here in August!
Second, I love all the off-topic and GTKY posts, these are great fun and often hilarious!
Third, I love the Waiting to O and 2WW check-in posts...it's a great way for me to write about what's going on and get it out of my system so I can think about other things!
Fourth, I love having a place where I can come and talk about the TTC process, with people who know what I'm going through and aren't going to tell me "Just relax and it'll happen!"

1. It is helpful to talk to other ladies who are TTC.
2. Seeing and getting support
3. Some of the ladies have the best sense of humor and I love reading their posts! The sarcasm in some people's posts related to silly questions people often ask absolutely cracks me up! I love it!
1. I have learned so much from the ladies on this board.
2. It is great to have others to talk to that are going through the same think as I am.
3. I have met some really great girls!
MFI, Lap on 7/21/11 - Stage III/IV Endo and Polyps removed by D&C IVF #1 with ICSI - ER 1/20 (16R, 12M, 10F), ET 1/23 (1-10 cell and 1-8cell transferred), BFP on 1/31 Beta #1 on 2/3 = 68, Beta #2 on 2/6 = 261 EDD 10/12/12
Baby girl born 9/22/12
FET #1 - 9/16/13 - BFN
IVF #2 - ER 11/11/13 (24R, 18M, 16F), ET 11/16 (2 Grade A blasts)
The knowledge and entertainment make this board one of my favorite sites! Plus I could talk about ttc all day and that really works on most peoples nerves! Especially those who aren't trying...
"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."
I would never had been charting, using FF, or taking Pom and EPO if not for this board. I also love to read about everyone's experiences and talk about TTC to my heart's content. Also our book club!
Together since 5/08 ~ Married 6/19/10 ~ TTC #1 since 8/10 BFP#1 3/26/11 ~ EDD 12/2/11 ~ Ectopic Twins left tube 7w3d BFP#2 11/2/11 ~ EDD 7/14/12 ~ Robert Edgar born 7/18/12 BFP#3 9/28/13 ~ EDD 5/20/14 ~ Benjamin Clarence born 5/15/14
i love that everyone is going through the same thing and that we all can give TMI and not be judged by it. I also love the drama that ensues after a stupid post.
I learn new things everyday here. I find it facinating to watch the different situations women here are going through TTC. I also love the fact that this board makes me feel like I'm not alone.
Been married since 2009. Unicornuate Uterus (yes I menstruate glitter) Several MCs DD born 2013 (our miracle "you can't have babies" baby!)
I'm still new, so I don't know most of you really, but I like the vibe around here. You gals are nice and know so much. I've learned a lot in a really short time!
I love this board for its knowledgeable and honest women who have opened my eyes to tools for ttc that I probably would have taken a bit longer to discover otherwise. (Also for it's ability to let me feel slightly hopeful when my chart has gone BSC...oy.)

I have loved this board so far. The support is great, but for me, the best part is just being able to talk to people and say (well, I guess type) that I am TTC. Now that we have been trying for over 6 months, the hardest part is seeing everyone everyday and not talking about what is on my mind all of the time.
Plus, once and awhile, there are some amusing posts.
EDD - October 13, 2011 - Can't wait to meet our little one!
BFP cycle
I love that you guys have clearly got such great, close friendships with the regulars on this board, but you are willing to also answer questions and give advice to newbies or lurkers. It's a nice balance.
I also like that there isn't a ton of discussion about angel babies or baby dust. Thank you!
I love this board as I learning so much about TTC and the trials and tribulations that we go through. It is also such a fun place of laughter when you need it, and support and advice. I know I quite new to posting and joining in and I thank you for helping me. (sorry about the paragraphs I'm on my iPhone)
(2) The humor - everyone has such a great sense of humor. I love sarcasm (at first it was hard to "get" when you read it, but then you totally see the personality of everyone on here)
(3) The outlet - I keep TTGP to DH and I, this allows me a place to chat with ladies in a similar position.
I love the fact that I can think of any random question, open the web page and it's already there, answered! Though I can't say I've made many friends, since I'm new-ish, I like feeling like this is a welcome place to come!
IUD removed June '10. CP Sept'10.
Confirmed complete bicornuate uterus June '11.
1) There are some really great ladies on here. Some make me laugh, some inspire me (well, many inspire me!), some make me smile every time I see one of their posts.
2) DH and I are keeping TTC mostly to ourselves and if I obsessed over it to him the way I can on here, he'd get very stressed out.
3) Daysie's "Good Morning" posts. It's nice to check in each day and see how everyone is doing, what's new, see the pretty coffee picture, etc.
4) There is a wealth of information on here that seems to be never-ending. Without this site I wouldn't probably be temping, using FF, know about OPKs, etc.
5) The sense of community and also the sense of humor is really nice.

I love having a place to discuss TTGP without anyone IRL knowing
I've learned so much from everyone...charting, FF, green tea
