Can I make an introduction?

If not, that's okay...I'll stay a lurker. ;o)

Oh, before anyone asks I've met the prerequisites. I've read TCOYF, lurked for about a year and a half, and generally understand the "rules" of BOTB. I say the latter with part sarcasm and part truth. So, here it goes.

I'm Kate, I'm 24 and currently single. I was in a long term relationship with my SO for 6 years and recently broke off all contact with him. I'm not currently TTC, but have have BOTB since...well, a long time. I have PCOS and had one miscarriage as a result of that and another from a genetic abnormality. I'm nannying 4 kids right now (Mon-Fri) and planning on returning to school next spring.

I have no "home board" (I did when I first joined at the MC/Preg loss board) but mainly now only post on Baby Names and sometimes on the month boards if I have a question about the kids I'm nannying.

So, if you'll accept a "newb" I'd appreciate it. If not, that's cool too. :o)

    Well you have done your homework, so that is good.

    As long as you promise to have a sense of humor and not go BSC on us, I think you can stay.

    Welcome!

    First of all, I'm genuinely sorry about your losses.  

    I feel the need to say this though, with complete sincerity, if you're not currently ttc but have serious botb, I'd actually try to limit your time here.  Yes, I realize how this sounds, because you actually sound sane, but botb feeds real botb.  

    I'd just hate to see you torture yourself to the point of bsc.  

    That being said, welcome?

    Yes it does, it did for me (damn these ladies and all the cute pics of their kids!) I still stayed because it's awesome here but took breaks when I needed it (ie felt the crazy follow me into Real Life.)

    Hi :)

    I promise, I'm not torturing myself and don't plan to in the future. I appreciate the sincerity of your post, so thank you.

    Haha, hi! I'll take your advice about the breaks. I can imagine the overwhelming cuteness of little ones getting to me. ;o)
