I've literally never heard someone tell anyone they are miscarrying .. It's actually always the opposite they say " I'm sure you're ok just check with your dr, lots of hugs and thoughts for you" you're delusional.

@tiffy81 it is really too bad that they deleted the post that you liked telling women to stop posting their losses and er visits to the board because it made op uncomfortable and scared. I'm not even going to touch the other bit of crap you spewed.

Some of you are being ridiculous. No one is saying don't talk about your losses. I've never said that. I don't think anyone has ever said don't talk about it. What I've said all along is that I think it's wrong when newly pregnant women are asking questions early on and most of the answers are telling her that she's miscarrying. That's what I think is wrong. Yes miscarrying happens and it's real life but it's not going to happen to everyone so why try to scare women that are asking simple questions about symptoms.
You must have the reading comprehension of a gnat. I have never seen a post here where a PGAL lady has said "oh, yep, you're symptoms went away - you're miscarrying!" Or anything close to what you're claiming.
When someone posts "I'm spotting - am I miscarrying?" the answer, no matter if its coming from a PGAL gal or not, is always "probably not, but it could be a sign so if you're concerned or it continues, call your doctor." We could hire a parrot to give that response...because that's the truth.
Losses happen. Early term, late term, childhood...really shitty circumstances exist. If you don't want to hear about them and you're not willing to give support to those who experience them, I suggest you cancel your Internet and TV services and build a bomb shelter.

And @Dee300 it's spelled pregnancies........
Oh sweetheart....you may have not typed those words out yourself but we all remember that you agreed with the poster who said it and all the loss bashing that happened.
Again, link us any post where someone was told that they were going to miscarry as an answer to a question...I'm fairly certain that this has NEVER been happened on this board. If you can show me proof and I'll eat my words.

@knsatx OMG I did not know. And I was wondering about you the other day. My heart broke reading your post, I'm so sorry about your loss, thinking of you and sending a heartfelt prayer.
Thank you so much :x Your prayers are much appreciated!
Well, the miscarriage cult is alive and well. Oh wait, its NOT. I've never seen one response informing a woman asking "hey, what books should I read?" that she's having a miscarriage. But, if you can't comprehend reading @tiffy81 I could see how you might get confused.
Wow!! Tiffy81... Look at the time I wrote it FFS. I was just leaving the hospital after a D&C the night before. SORRY I spelled pregnancy wrong... Your a very mean person. Does it REALY matter to point that out...
And NOBOBY TOLD ME I WAS GOING TO LOSE MY BABY!!!. Everyone one gave me hope and positive feedback. Plus faith for the future to go on and have healthily babies.

I have never told anyone they are having a miscarriage. And I have not heard anyone else. Nobody can even say that.
I cannot believe people are agreeing. I really honestly cannot believe it.
I truly wish that miscarriages did not happen and that everything was cartwheels and lollipops. I would do anything to not experience the loss. Educating yourself on what could happen in pregnancy and child rearing is the best thing you can do for yourself and your baby. Current education usually comes from past events. If everyone hid their miscarriage then even medical staff wouldn't know what it is and I wouldn't be able to listen and talk to women that know how I'm feeling.

Dear OP: I wish I was on here when I had my loss at 24 weeks...I repeat 24 weeks! I just stayed in bed all day with no one to completely understand what I was going through. So I'm glad I'm here this time around I had a perfectly normal pregnancy the whole way through so there is ALWAYS a chance to lose your baby. Maybe you should check out some of our stories ...then again just go find another group to waste your ignorance on!

How do we start a board that focuses on the pregnancy that we have now and not losses? I'm not trying to offend anyone but I would love a board where the focus is the future and not past losses and goodbyes.
Isn't there a PGAL? The women who haven't experienced losses probably don't go on those boards to ask FTM type questions. So why should this birth month club be flooded with so many scary posts that worry FTM moms? And why is it insensitive for FTMs to want a board of their web where they don't have to see posts titled bleeding, goodbye or maybe next time? And I don't read any more of goodbye posts. Because I want to be excited about my babies not worried out of mind because every other hour someone is posting about their loss or something. Yes it's sad but there are boards for those topics and this shouldn't have to be one of them. The OP made valid points and shouldn't be crucified because she wants to read positive encouraging posts!
If anyone would like to read the rest of that post and the other hurtful things that she and the rest of the twat waffles were saying here you go:
And to all of the white knights "loving" these ridiculous posts. I hope you never need support because I can promise most of the PgAL community that you just horribly offended will not be there for you as you are not there for us.

Another Edit: Also @tiffy81 How dare you attack someone on their spelling as they tell us they are just leaving the hospital from a loss. You are sick and disgusting person.

Wow!!! I'll admit that I only read page 1 and page 6, but this got nasty right from the start. OP is a real twat-box, and the white knighting on this one is just sad. Miscarriages happen, and it is a part of life and pregnancy. We are all nervous of having a loss, whether it would be our first or have had one before. It saddens me that our board can't just get along.
Maybe hold off for a few more months...but I love me some 2Pac!

I actually think the board gets along pretty well. We do have some strong opinions, but, the serious crazies slinging MUD kind of bring it on themselves. The OP and tiffy probably wouldn't get along with a lot of people.

Yeah those of us that disagree with civility are around.
ETA, I feel like I should add for me anyway, until douche canoes like OP and TiffyI-hate-women-open-about-their-losses81 show up.

I just gotta add...people do realize losses don't end after the first tri...or the second...or the third...
My nephew was born at 24w...he made it 4 weeks, then we lost him. My cousin had a baby born full term 4 months ago, and yesterday the baby passed away. LOSS is apart of life, babies, children, family members, and friends. I'm sick of seeing posts on this. It's sickening that people think others shouldn't reach out for support.
I like to think that this is a nice site to have support especially for ppl who have yet to talk to there familes or friends. Im super paranoid about losss but I know it happens and always for a reason and I I can say one thing to a stranger and it help them I would. And I would like to think the same for everyone one here. I think about those that have lost there babies all the time and hope they find peace.
It really bothers me that these type of posts keep happening! This is my FTP and yes, it can definitely be scary, but I'd rather be realistic and know that losses can happen. This board is full of wonderful, supportive ladies and the only real crazies I've seen are people like OP and others that continue to attack the PGAL ladies... I just don't get it!
Why is everybody being so mean? You are going to tell me that with your first you weren't freaking out about everything you read..... Come on ladies as I know you all are LADiES I think she is just looking for reassurance just like you guys did when you first joined, so be nice to one another. Geezzzzzz
After all we all have different opinions for everything and can't agree on everything one says
This, like the OP's statement, is completely ridiculous. I am an over thinker & worrier typically, but more than that I am a human being who has empathy & compassion for others going through a hard time. @dmosquera4 The OP basically said no one should post for support or to let their new friends on here know what is going on with them if they experience a loss. That's being incredibly selfish, not "looking for reassurance." Also, @tiffy81, I have been on this board since early on, and I cannot think of one time where people told people they must be miscarrying and "scared" them. Based on previous posts, I believe you are thinking what you want with absolutely no basis.
