Trouble TTC

Feeling sad for myself...Oldies?? Come in Come in P/SAIFW

Ok, I have been on this board waaaaaaayyyyy too long.  1.5 years-ish is too long.  I don't want to move to IF or whatever because I have hope I won't need another IF/3T board.

Who's still around from the old days?

Re: Feeling sad for myself...Oldies?? Come in Come in P/SAIFW

  • I am not around from the "old days" but wanted to pop in to give you a hug Glow. 

    I hate that you are having to make a decision about moving on to another board and hope the next time you move it will be to PAIF or a birth month board.

    :raises hand:

    I joined in Feb maybe of 2010...during the mass exodus.  The IF board is too overwhelming for me.  I have always prefered the 'oasis' even if it is a little less tranquil than it used to be.

    Ah, that Oasis, we haven't called it that in a long time.

    The IF board scares me because it feels so established and like I'm butting in.

  • Sadly, I've been on the bump way too long, but I didn't come to this board until last March when I got a firm diagnosis of PCOS. I need a BFP soon, and I need to get back to the RE now that my job situation is easier to deal with. So many people on this board, and on TTGP have moved on, I don't recognize most of the people anywhere... I'm happy that they got to move on, but it hurts that I'm still here.

  • I'm still here!  I moved over from TTGP board last March but have been on the bump since July 2009.  Whenever newbs intro on this board and they say something like "I've been trying since 3/10", I have to stop and remind myself that it has been a year for them because I for some reason think if you didn't start trying in '09 or earlier it hasn't been "that long".  Then it just reminds me that no...I'm coming up on two years of trying.  Even if it's not as much as the oasis it once was, it's still home to me.  And I hope you stick around.

    I think I kind of know how you feel. I thought about moving to IF board when we started talking about IVF but I just can't do it. TTTC feels like home to me. I don't want to leave you ladies until I get my BFP.

    I hope we all get to move to the months board or PAIF soon. ((hugs))

I need a BFP soon, and I need to get back to the RE now that my job situation is easier to deal with. So many people on this board, and on TTGP have moved on, I don't recognize most of the people anywhere... I'm happy that they got to move on, but it hurts that I'm still here.

    E2 was MUCH better yesterday.  Scan (yesterday also) was impressive. I have TONS cooking in there.  I'm thinking either Monday or Tuesday for the ER, depending on how tomorrow goes.
