@shara1733 I'm happy you have good news. But please please please put a trigger warning (*TW*) in front of your last post. For those of us having a hard TTCAL day, a random pregnancy announcement from a relative stranger on the board is like a knife to the heart. I know you meant to thank us sincerely, but this post may be really hard for regs here to see and you are unintentionally causing people pain. You haven't been here that long, and while I'm happy your pregnancy is looking better, it still stings to see a post like this without warning. This board is supposed to be a safe space from random pregnancy announcements. Adding the TW will let people know to skip your post if they're having a hard day. I hope the rest of your pregnancy is uneventful.
Yes @vlagrl29. Pretty much a huge tw. I lurked the October bmb last night and She posted it there too if you are insterested. Don't know if it's still there this morning. Imagine it is

...It's kind like rubbing salt into our wounds. "Hey guys, look how lucky I am am!!! Too bad you aren't as lucky as me. Better luck next time." Buh Bye.

This^^ As someone who had a BO, it's a slap in the face to have someone waltz in here, post for a few days, and then go "OMG, surprize!!!! My dates were probably just wrong!". I avoid FB for reasons like this - do not need this shit on this board.
Wtf guys. I get she is all excited. I get it. I wished for the same outcome after my first us too when things weren't measuring right. She is thanking everyone from her bmb and said that she got "negative backlash from the mc board ."
i think she said she has gone through a mc before. Shouldn't she be more sensitive then ?

Sheesh, "backlash" is not the same as politely telling someone about proper ttal etiquette and not congratulating her. Some speshul snowflakes need that extra 'atta girl! Sorry we couldn't give it to her. We are all damned to hell.
BTW, can you tell my AF is around the corner?
Oh and, I have never seen any drama on this board since I've been here other than stupid fly-by pg announcements.
Ugh coming on here and seeing this just makes my heart hurt. I didn't see the original post but I am hoping it was not the same thing she posted in the October BMB that I lurked and saw. Big sigh. I went through the same thing twice and both times I of course didn't see a heartbeat on my return visit.
It does make me really thankful that this is such a supportive, drama free Board where we all talk about so many things but are very respectful of people's feelings. I think it hurts even more that someone would come on to such a supportive space and behave like that.
@TScalei It was the short version of the Oct BMB post. I posted over there... Couldn't help it. "Backlash".... Harrumph. You ladies are wonderful and I'm so sorry a random post caused anyone else here pain.
I know when I had my loss back in jan I felt very new here and wasn't wanting to impose and even felt like my CP wasn't enough of a loss to be a member of this board. I would have never announced a BFP in my early days on here. Even with her prior loss you think she would have some compassion.
@vlagrl29 Exactly! I think that's why we don't get a lot of random drive by posts, because most loss moms ARE sensitive to that. She edited her post pretty quickly, so I thought she understood, but I guess not.
@RiverSong15 Good for you for posting on Oct. bmb. You have such a way with words. If I responded on how I really felt about things last night I would've been banned from TB.

I missed her post but I'm going by all the comments that I don't really need to read it. Can't believe she thought she got a backlash from this board. I have never seen negative things posted on her maybe a polite etiquette suggestion but that's it.
I think that's why I've found my niche on the TTCAL Board because there really aren't any drive bys. After everything I have been through I don't have the patience for am i pg? posts.
yeah I would not at all consider that backlash - great response @RiverSong15
occasionally we get weird posts on TTC after 35 - the most recent was a girl so scared she might have accidentally got pregnant - wtf? I was ticked and posted in a sarcasm font lol.
Phew! So glad I was gone for several days and missed the TW that didn't have a TW! Would not have been able to take that right now I don't think.

I'm sorry for everyone who was hurt by that post. Love you ladies!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
Wow... I missed this as I've been working long shifts the past few days. Glad I did though from the sounds of it. Sorry to everyone who had to see it, so not cool, and why would you do that in this board of all places.
I was happy to respond to that post. You ladies are wonderful, and the only reason that I'm doing as well as I am emotionally after these MCs. I couldn't stand to see anyone post such a hurtful drive-by and then criticize this board. you all.
Anyways, to help move on to more fun things, here's a puppy GIF
Well fuhq! Back to WTO, but not because of a new cycle. It's CD 20 today and I guess I had a 4 day fake out of higher temps due to being sick. Yesterday and today are low, so I'm gonna assume I haven't ovulated yet. So mad because DH hasn't been home since Tuesday and won't get back until Sunday night and my OPKs have been really positive the last two days.

@SP128 Ya damn right! But we're tired. We BD 10 times in 12 days before he went away. I hate that we have to keep going and the timing won't be as good.

@NYTino24 holy smokes. You're still walking ? I hear you. I think I'm going to o in a few days I think. I always struggle with which days to bd. Don't want to waste it. Plus. Sometimes dh has trouble finishing. Wish I had a hookup to an us machine.

@NYTino24 Damn! So sorry about the fever. And that's a lot of sex! We're lucky if we hit 3 or 4x. Hopefully O holds off for Monday and you get great timing with Sunday!
Well, he's going to Mexico in April and then we have to TTA due to Zika, which we just had to do this summer because of our honeymoon. Add in turning 34 in a week and I mean business. I'm normally a once a weeker, so we had to push ourselves. Had to use PreSeed the last time because I just didn't have much moisture left. Haha.... today is day 3 of a 3 day break and I have to jump him when he gets home tomorrow night. Luckily, he's good about powering through it most of the time and neither of us gives up too easily. It just isn't much fun sometimes!

@NYTino24- sounds like a great plan. Better get it all in now. I know the last time we BD during my fertile week DH was really tired but was able to power thru. We are usually and 2-3x a week people but when you see gobs of fertile CM you don't want to waste it.
@vlagrl29 I wish I had tons of it. Not having it makes it hard to guess!!
