Hi ladies. Yep. Another D14. Please don't hold it against me. I'm originally from the IF and IFV boards, so I didn't really know what to expect from a BMB. Now I do. Not sure if D14 is a normal BMB? Yikes.
Little about me: I'm old (AMA), so that's been fun to be told constantly for the last couple of months. I have an 11 year old DS. It's scary. Boys that are close to teen years are scary. I am currently pregnant (hence the D14), was expecting twins, but was thrown a loop and lost one of the babies a little late for it to be considered a vanishing twin. That has thrown me into a really weird place where I'm trying to pretend that this isn't really happening, which I'm sure a therapist would tell me was completely healthy. My DH was in Iraq when my DS was born. They met when my DS was 6 months old. Watching them meet was, hands down, the most amazing moment of my entire life. The only thing that kept me going through 10 years of infertility was thinking of him finally holding our newborn. That might be what gets me through until December. Through IF treatments, I completely lost myself. I used to be fun. Now, I'm a huge downer. So, I have that to bring to your board. You're welcome. I'm working on it.
Lately, I've been a disaster. Poor DH and DS. So, I figure just ignoring my fat gut until December is the best way to deal.
As for D14 and it's drama. I'm not okay with making fun of someone's m/c. Clearly. I've had a few in my life. I actually missed the m/c post that everyone kept referring to. I have no clue what went on, but it still disgusts me. I'm pretty sure I was rather upset at someone from this board, maybe the other night for no real reason. I really don't remember who, but I really am sorry. This whole thing has thrown me for a loop. I'm usually a pretty go with the flow and sarcastic person. Not lately. The MM thing is a disaster. She is a disaster. As a teacher, school shootings are one of the things that terrify me the most. I simply cannot imagine. Yes, I did say that I was ready to drop it the other day. (Now you all hate me, I know) It wasn't because I agree with it. Not even kind of. Again, I've just been having a super shitty last few weeks and I was over MM. However, even though it didn't come out the other night when I was a sobbing mess (at home not on tb, clearly) I am so glad that some of you had the balls to keep after her until she left. I'm sure she'll be back in some form or another.
But, now the board is back to pregnancy stuff. Probably what it's supposed to be? But, like I said, I gotta talk about something else for the next 6 months for all that is holy or I'll go insane. I just want to be my normal, sarcastic person, who happens to be pregnant. I don't really need to talk about the fact that I'm pregnant 24/7. But, I did post my NT scan pic today because it is simply the most adorable baby ever. Tied with my DS of course. Actually, the pic looks just like the other million that have been posted there. Whatever. It was my moment.

I'm sorry you've had such a hard journey. Welcome.
I assure you that it is NOT the reason I'm here. I had to pay to be here. I'd have preferred the hard way.
Thanks for the welcome ladies.
ETA: Grown women don't wear undies? Stop me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't that lead to snail trail in your pants? I cannot.do.that. Sorry, side thought.

@twolittledogs I must miss it because I tend to avoid the board a lot. Lately, I only check up on it during my potty breaks in the middle of the night. Hence, why my tired ass chewed someone from here the other night. Still feel reallybad for that. Tired, full bladder that won't drain, snoring DH and dogs, don't make me pleasant I guess. Or it's that I don't feel connected to anyone there yet. I was on IF and IFV for so long that I don't really "know" many ladies from other boards. I'm a recluse I guess
@SCSmith2011 Thanks. I don't really think being 36 when I deliver is that old. Maybe I'm in denial?
