Hi all!
I’m Rhonda.TTC for our first child. With PCOS this has been incredibly challenging already but I’m hopeful. 2 rounds of Femara and lots of BFNs in the last year and a half. Still reading up on all of these acronyms but excited to connect with anyone going through it too.

    @hopingandpraying99 you're right, I just went back and read the https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/12586072/welcome-new-members thread and it does say to start a new thread and introduce yourself. That post is about 3.5 years old and board etiquette has evolved a little since then. 

    Thanks for intro'ing in the newbie thread! I'll respond to your post over there.

    Yeah, I noticed the conflicting information when I joined here, too.  How hard is it to get that fixed at this point?  Like moving a mountain?  It would be cool if they could unpin it and close it so we could open a new, updated one, but I know getting posts unpinned/pinned can be tricky.

    @shamrocandroll Because the thread with the incorrect info was made by the BGs, I'm not sure how easy/difficult it would be to have it unpinned.  And that's one of the many reasons that we suggest people lurk before joining in.

    Welcome! No worries about your intro post. When I started here last month I read that that’s what you should do too. I only intro’d on the designated thread because I happened to notice it.
