at the risk of sounding incredibly rude...

but why do I keep finding posts on the TTC board that really belong on the pregnancy board???

Things like... how long did you wait to test before you got your BFP? Helllo... TTC!! BFP = PREGNANT! I know that some TTCers have kids already and can answer it and other's had mc's and can answer... but really the pregnancy board seems better fit for pregnancy questions! TTC board = TTC questions and info.

There's others, but I won't put them all on blast.

I'm probably just annoyed with my own situation of not being pregnant and seeing those types of questions when I'm not expecting them is hard. I know at times I go to the pregnancy board and snoop around... perhpas I'm into some self destruction... but those times I can only blame myself because I went to that board. This is different.

I know how you are feeling, sometimes I think the same thing. I've just stopped opening those threads. If I'm having a bad day, I don't open "do you see a line" threads either.

yeah i can totally relate. it ESPECIALLY irks me when someone posts a long vent about "how hard it is" when they are on their first month. i feel so Chat Icon and that im a terrible person for having these thoughts. but it really bothers me.

also when someone posts a BFN post about how upset they are and how they know they are out when they test at like 8DPO and then 3 days later post their BFP, all in their first or second month of trying.. that makes me really annoyed too...

i probably sound like a bitter biotch right now Chat Icon

but i do try not to open those posts. i try to only open posts that i would respond to. and i def still like to help newbies on the TTC board. so i still go for that reason, but i did have to distance myself from it for a while.

I try not to open them too... but sometimes the title tricks you. I wouldn't know they are pregnancy questions by the titles people sometimes use.

but you don't sound like a bitter biotch at all. haha... i wrote butter instead of bitter!! sorry. I just had to giggle at that.

Ugh, when people write how hard and stressful this is when they've only tried for a month or a few months I want to Chat Icon . I also want to Chat Icon when first timers "have symptoms" and go to the doctor before 2WW is up and convince doc to give them a blood test. (I am not talking about people going through fertility treatments...I realize they have to go all the time). It sucks, but you just gotta wait it out!!
(Sorry for the vent, clearly I am at the end of a 2WW!!)
I know I am prob. being a biotch but I just can't deal with that stuff.

I realize it is a stressful process for everyone but the longer it goes, the harder it is. Chat Icon
