Success after IF

Holy Cow.. I'll have to go and read the replies: Davez

but since I was watching Ava while she was at the doc yesterday, I saw the ultrasound pics. As I did with the twins (owl and baby b). And the pee sticks, lol. And the tears over the past couple years, etc. So...... yea. Can't believe what I just read.

And I really like to steer clear from the drama, so I'm definitely not contributing.

  • ok, caught up on it all. Wow!

    Davez doesn't need defending, she's a big girl and this will blow over and she'll be fine. Who cares if some "strangers" think she's making up this stuff for chits and giggles. (But really..? who does that?) She knows she has friends here and people supporting her and she appreciates that.

    It never occured to me that someone would think she's making it up. Granted, it has been a complete rollercoaster the last couple years, but that makes me just sad, not suspicious. And probably because I do know her personally I know it's real so it just never crosssed my mind.

    There is so much going on that she doesn't post actually. Like, debating how many to transfer (she had three frozen so was going to transfer two, but then what to do with the third one? and if it wasn't the best quality, chances of all three sticking successfully,etc). And discussions about adoption, surrogacy, etc. I'm sure I said too much.

    After her appt yesterday when we sat on my couch looking at the pics, honestly, neither of us thought that C was going to make it. I feel kinda bad now, as it sounds like it does have a decent shot by all the comments. I figured singleton for sure, and I sure hope B was just off to a slower start and will catch up and be fine. We'll know more next week.

    Sorry Davez for saying more than you'd prob like. Just know there are peeps here who really are interested in your journey so don't let a few bad eggs spoil it for you.

  • I just read through all the posts below and I just can't respond.  I've always been a supporter of Davez and unless proven otherwise will always be.  

    I hate when women deliberately cause drama.  If you have a problem with someone specific, so to them specially and not drag the whole board into it.

    While I have not met her IRL, I do feel like I "know" her.  I do know of more background than she posts here (as she didn't want to bother people with details).  She has cycled with BFNs and did not post.  There is more to Davez than many people know (and probably more than I know).  I thought about adding those details too but glad that someone who is there in real life can say them.

  • So I'm not posting in the other thread because it will be lost and never read.  

    There was a long time that I never paid DW attention, I went through my journey, she went through hers, our paths rarely crossed because, eh I thought she was a little dramatic, but never fake.

    Then she did something incredibly classy, she came on to the board to refute a claim on M$B blog that was apparently left in her name. She was genuine and kind and respectful. She because more then just a person on the internet at that point, and we started to talk and become friends.

    I've met Davez in person, met Eva, even met their crazy dog. Actually I met her within days of her finding out she was pregnant with the twins last year. She doesn't take crap from anyone, but she does have feelings, and I'm sure today stings.

    When Davez went to the trial in SC, and it failed, I sent a friend (rowanthefrog, from a m/c survivor board that I'm part of ) to her who was having loss after loss. Davez shared her experience, and got her in touch with the RE in SC. Rowan got into the trial because of her experience and a recommendation from Davez. Because of that trial, Rowan was successful in staying pregnant, and now has an amazing little boy to show for it. 

    I've talked to Davez about so much of what she has been through, I've cheered her on even during the cycles she never talked about on the board. I've followed her private journals, and helped give her hope when she had NONE. I've also learned that she would do the same for me if I ever went through a FRACTION of what she has gone through.

    I think Davez is a strong willed, out spoken woman who is willing to share her (very LONG and painful and confusing) journey with a group of women. I can't even imagine the number of babies that have been born because of the knowledge that she has brought to this board.

    I know my opinion doesn't matter that much (and honestly I don't care), but I have been here from pretty much the beginning, even though I'm not here all that much anymore. I do come on and support as I can.  

    Davez doesn't need defending, thats true. But she gets it because of the good person that she is.

     

    What I don't think I'll understand at all is that with every other case that the MoM's are talking about, there was CONCRETE proof that someone was a fraud. Its not hard to catch someone in a lie, eventually they slip up, and with the number of years that we have all gotten to know each other, and with the amount that Davez talks, surely she would have slipped up. There is a picture or someone in real life that comes out. If that existed, then it should/would have come out in the "outing" but no one has mentioned anything other then a hunch. Its sad. 

    Anyways... I've said my piece.... Davez knows I'm there for her, and thats what matters.

    This is what I don't understand eitherHuh?

    And hclavalley, I wish you would come around more often. I remember you from the tttc days and would love to say big Hello to you!!!

  • Just catching up - and I'm only skimming.  Sounds like a bunch of bulllshiit went down somewhere.  DW is not lying about anything.  And I've seen several people say they prefer to believe her or support her until they see something that would prove otherwise.

    Well let me go and step further and saying even if she WAS lying - I still adore her!  So people can put that in their pipes and smoke it if they want.

    But she's not.  She's true blue.  Probably too true blue for her own good (and too honest, and too unfiltered, which is what has gotten her in trouble a time or two or three over these long bump years.)  

    I love you T.  Eff the haters!  All of 'em.

    Wheee!

    Moi?   whhhaattt?  ::::snicker:::: (I'm not stupid, I'm well aware my mouth gets me in trouble. But I am not a liar.)

    You know what else I'm good at? Admitting when I'm wrong, apologizing, and moving on.

    Just sayin'.

    This.  I remember the obnoxiousness of some of DW's posts from the beginning and I really didn't like her.  Then over time, it seemed to me that her struggle had changed her - like I hope it's changed all of us - for the better.  To harp on her for the past does noone any good. 

    If we're going to judge people, judge them for who they are now, in the present, on a regular basis.  If you haven't been the board in years, don't judge based on what you thought you knew, because in the time since so many have been supposedly driven away by DW, she's become a champion of compassion, empathy and love.  She's supported so many on this board.  

    Yep, she posts a lot and has lots of drama, but quite honestly, I don't think you can judge the drama that comes with multiple IVF cycles and multiple MCs unless you've lived it.  

    Even if she is fake, I'm not sorry for placing my trust and faith into her and investing in her story.  It took nothing from me to be positive and hopeful and supportive of her and I do believe she's given far more to this board than she's taken.
