Trying to Get Pregnant

can't we all just get along?

Hello. This is my first post (please spare me your sarcastic "thats obvious" or "click this" if your some type of gold star member)

I am TTC our second child, and wanted to meet other girls trying to do the same.  I was very supprised to find bitter, nasty, Griench like women. Is this not an open forum??? Instead of lifting eachother up, many girls get caty and bitter every time someone gets BFP. I never knew internet bullying existed until now. I know that there are some great women out there who want to lend advice and SUPPORT to eachother. I hope to find them. (if they have not been terrifed to come back due to the "flaming")

 P.S. if someone asks a question that you think is silly, how hard is it to click next post?

    Really?  Reaaaaaaally?  You never knew internet bullying existed until now?  I guess that's not that hard to believe.  It's definitely not a topic they ever talk about in the news or anything.

     Have you bee living underneath a rock?

    But in all seriousness, the women on this board do not bully. They are snarky and opinionated, but they don't bully people. If you don't like honesty and some snark this is not the place for you.

    I don't think that straight forward (i.e. no beating around the bush)= bitter.

    You're right, oh wise one. Thank goodness you posted this. Now we should all go kneel on pencils in the corner and think about our behavior. Who knew it would only take your opinion to change the whole posting style of the board. You're magical.

    Im going to take a wild stab in the dark that calling the women of the TTGP board class-less, and rolling your eyes at them isn't going to be the warm welcome you wanted. 

     

    ETA: By lurking I've noticed, snark that is appreciated comes with time, and posts. I.e. not your second post.

    they like to make others feel stupid for the same thoughts we all had when first TTC. How is that supportive? But, im glad they were able to help you.

    Your going to have to point to the post where someone asked a legit question and was made to feel stupid. It's extremely rare for anyone to snark a real question.
