Made myself sad

I was just saying to a friend how it's hard to keep up with this board because there are just so many of us here, and then it suddenly sunk in that so many women have had to endure losses and I made myself sad. I wish none of us had to be here, that we could all be on the "regular" JM ttc boards

I think about that same thing every time we we welcome a new member to our every growing group. Definitely sad

You are so right... But I think about what Michelle wrote the other day... About getting to meet all of you incrediable women. If it wasn't for all you, I don't think I would be able to go on everyday. You are my inspiration and strength... And even though we don't want to be here, or have to welcome that new ladie on to this board.. since we know why she is here.... It is great comfort knowing you are here my sisters in loss....

HUGS to you, and all!

But you know what it says about each and every person who feels sad when "welcoming" a new member, taking the time to console each other and opening up and sharing one of the most painful and personal things we will ever go through?

That we are all still compassionate. And that we all do care about each and every single person who posts on this board. Its a special bond that we all have with each other.

It amazes me how much I don't feel "out of place" on this board. Lots of other boards, they all have a camaraderie and all seem to know each other very intimately. It makes it hard to just jump right in and start posting. I know that kind of friendship take time to build....but never once have I felt like I don't belong here or that I don't fit in. I think its because we all come from different backgrounds, different cities but instead of just that "TTC" thread tying us all together....its something much more deeper than that. Its amazing that I found such a great place where I can ask/say/do anything without fear of not being understood.

I <3 you ladies.

I hear you ladies, I was shocked when I came on here and saw how many women out there have to go through this. I thanked my sister for telling me about it as she found comfort here when she had her MC. BTW, she just gave birth to beautiful twin girls, so it does happen after a loss.
