Trying to Get Pregnant

my head just exploded. See the Oct. 2011 board (ticker warning)

can someone please check out the "what are my chances" post... if you can make it past the inane original post, scroll down to see her own reply where she says this:

"...I wipe out (not just outside but inside my vag too). Yes, the statistics are 20% each month, but that's if we are not wiping out. It must lower the chances significantly (or so I'd think). 

She's claiming that because she "wipes off" her husband's leftovers (outside AND inside!) then her chances of conceiving any given month would be lower than the 20% for a normal healthy couple TTC.

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatthefuck

  • Wait.  I haven't read the OP yet but why is she on the Oct 2011 board if she's "wiping out" in order to *reduce* her chance of conceiving?

  • My favorite line has to be "I know the sperm are fast and a lot of them may have made it up through my cervix before I wiped them out, but I must have gotten the vast majority."

    OMG...is this the same person posting on the TTCAL board...come check out some of the responses from the ladies to her there.  No holds barred.  If it's not the same person, then this 'wiping' method must be the new thing that the kids are doing...

    She wants to "wing it, wipe it and wait".  

    I'm coining that phrase.

    Since her post is on more than one board and makes as little sense on all of them...all I have gathered is that they are "laid back people wanting to just let a pg be a coincidence"  Whatever.

  • I was originally on this board and after my loss I have mainly been on TTCAl. Anyway this same chick posted over on TTCAL under the post "what are the chances that I am preg?" She is on a roll and hitting every board. She got upset with us for being rude to her. I had to read the post twice to even understand what she was saying!

    Darwinism definitely wasn't working when she came along.  When trying to prevent pregnancy if you forget to do the "pull out" method, just do the "wipe out" method!  For crying out loud, why is she wiping out anyway if she thinks it's lowering her changes of getting pregnant??  Is she trying to get pregnant or not?

    OH MY GOD- I went over to her TTCAL post to see what she said there and learned a little something- did you ladies know that: 

    Babydancing when you are ovulating is almost guaranteed, so there is no fun in "surprise". That is why we wipe out.

    I don't understand what the big deal is with TTGP grads starting a post honestly. If the grad OP is someone that many on the board are familiar with and has something interesting to post, then who cares if she is pregnant or not?

    People on TTGP often direct those who have pregnancy related questions to 1st Tri despite the poster not being pregnant and no one (either on TTGP or on 1st Tri) care about that. 

    Eh, I don't have a strong opinion either way, it's just a weird thing (IMO) that I don't quite understand. Feel free to let me know why it is such a big deal.

    Almost guaranteed, huh?  On the October board, she knew her chances are 20% each cycle.  Now I definitely call MUD.

    I think it's rude to make a post about a post on a board that some ladies here are still a little sore about not making it on. I don't want to know what is going on on the pg boards, honestly. If I did, I would go lurk myself. I just feel it is rude. That is my opinion, and it may not be shared. But, when I get my BFP, I won't be coming here to share about whatever board I make it to. I wouldn't want to make it look  like I was rubbing it in anyone else's face.

    Let's pretend this board is for ladies who are "Trying To Get Pregnant."

    While it is acceptable now for women who are KU (grads or not) to post on a thread, it hasn't always been that way. This is like posting on Babies 0-3 months, when, in fact, you don't have a child 0-3 months.
