I haven't lurked on any other boards on TB until today when I sifted through Baby Names. I'm curious what other boards on TB or TN you lurk/post? I feel a little weird about lurking on the trimester/baby age boards, I'm not sure why.
I lurk on BoB and the Trimester boards. As well as my local and what would be my birth month board.
I used to lurk on Natural Birth but I can't find it in the list of boards on mobile bump. I swear its not there but it's possible, of course, that I'm just an idiot.
Edit: I don't post anywhere but here right now. No kids, no prior pregnancies.
I post on Stay at Home Moms and Baby Names. I have recently started lurking at Secondary IF but haven't made the move to introduce myself yet?will probably wait until after my husband's SA.
This is the only place I really post - I intro'd on 3T but have done the majority of my posting here so this is where I'm comfortable. I lurk on secondary IF but haven't posted or intro'd... probably should, though.
TTC#2 Since July 2011
Me: 29, had two blocked tubes - left was cleared during lap, right was unable to be cleared. PCOS & Stage 2 Endo. DH: 32, SA = perfect CLOMID: 4 rounds, 50mg + TI = BFN's. FEMARA: 1 round = no response 12-24-2012 : Laparoscopy, Softball sized cyst/endo/scar tissue removed. Cycle #14 - Feb 2013 : 50mg clomid. Ovidrel Trigger. IUI on 2/14/13 = thin lining, multiple cysts.
Cycle #15 - no meds, still have cysts, no follicles. Boo!
Forced break. Continuous BCP for 6 weeks to give my jacked up ovaries a break. Cycle #16 actively trying (May/June): Femara, TI = BFN Cycle #17- #20 - Med/Treatment break, trying on our own = BFN's all around. Cycle #21 - Femara, MORE Femara, Ovidrel and a Christmas IUI = BFN
MY BLOG -- About DD, TTC and everything in between!
I post here and on 3T. I'm a dirty lurker on TTCAL, baby names, photography, and my potential birth month board.

Before BFP, I posted here and occasionally posted on baby names. Now I post on July 2013 and less frequently post on TTGP, 1st Tri and baby names. I lurk infrequently on attachment parenting, natural birth, baby showers, cloth diapering, health & exercise, and a few others.
I post on mc/pg loss and TTCAL the most. I lurk/post here (will more when we are cleared to TTC actively), lurk on PgAL, and if Im feeling brave on my old BMB (July ?13) to see how some of the girls are doing.
Love is multiplied: DS #1: 1.5.99 ~ DS #2: 9.23.11 ~ DD 8.29.13
m/c 11/12/12 - sleep tight baby bean.
Bitty Baby #4, please stick around - we already love you so very much!
I mostly on post here. I sometimes travel to BOB, 1st Tri, and High-Risk Pregnancy.
The TTGP board on TN is painful to read...but sometimes I lurk a bit. I also read the Trouble in Paradise on the TN. That is some real life drama. Hope I never have to post there.
I like lurking and giving feedback on the Baby Names Board. I have randomly lurked on other boards but nothing consistent. If I had more time maybe I would.
***SIGGY WARNING***
DX: Unexplained
6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).
IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN, IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1 BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical
Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg. Endo biopsy=negative. WTF is wrong with us???
12/18/13 FET of 1 BB and 1 AC. Hoping for a miracle. Beta 12/26 Low BETA-8 2nd BETA 5- chemical
After 3 failed transfers IDK where to go from here. Still no real answers as to why this isn't working. Getting a second opinion in February and looking into immune testing.
2/14- NEW RE- Immune testing showed a partial dq alpha match with DH- On prednisone and did intralipids prior to transfer. 3/14 Lupron, gonal f, menopur, HGH. ER 15 mature all 15 fertilized! 5dt of an early blast grade 1 and an expanded blast grade 2. BETA on 4/21. 1 grade 2 embryo frozen BETA #1 59 BETA #2 148 BETA #3 283 BETA #4 2,783! US at 6w2d shows 1 bean measuring right on track! HR 121. US at 8w3d measuring on track HR 177. Released form my RE. EDD 12/28
Babies on the Brain, photography, and occasionally baby names. This is definitely my home board though. I also lurk on the adoption board since that would be our next step if something medical happens to be interfering with our ttc ability.
TTC since March of 2012
Me: 27 Dh: 35
Testing Begins 3/5/13
Six SA's show DH has low numbers across the board = severe MFI Genetic testing for me = MTHFR+, also carrier for blood clotting disorder Otherwise all else normal Dh's karotype= Normal!!
I went through a Birth Stories phase for a while, I sometimes post on Military Families, MC/L, sometimes lurk on Natural Birth, TTCAL...the Dads board is a little interesting...Baby Names...
On TB, the only other place I check out is Baby Names. By the time I hit the 12-24 month board with DD, almost everyone had left for private boards. I followed and so I've been on a private board for several years. I mostly just came back to TB when I started TTC.
This is the only board I post on. I still lurk on July 13' to see how everyone is doing, and I lurk on a potential BMB, sometimes ill lurk on 1st Tri too..
