How did you find JM?

I was pregnant and a single mom (not with DH, I did not know him yet) and looking for support. I did a google search, found this place and never left!

when I had my 1st MC, my sister who is also a member told me to come here.

I found JM on Google while I was pg. I lurked in my DDC and didn't start posting until after my loss.

I was about 5 months pregnant and did a google search for something and JM had come up with my answere. I joined and never left. I love it here!

I was on a horrible DDC at baby center, and wanted to find a nicer one. They were all mean.

I googled something and found the Am I pregnant board, and I got hooked right away!

I googled, and found it when I was having my ectopic.

google. I had just gotten a BFP, but I was spotting so I googled miscarriage symptoms and ended up right here on TTCAL. Been here ever since (even though I go through stages of just lurking and no posting).

I googled miscarriage support forums and after finding some stand alone dead ones I found this

This and the AIP board are really the only ones I frequent on JM though because I have a local mommy forum I was already actively involved in. I just came here for the miscarriage support!

I keep hearing that! I have a girlfriend who uses another site, I forget which one, and she tells me that poking around on Baby Center is like watching Maury. Drama mama's!

Our first time BDing with me off the pill I was so excited I couldn't sleep. It was late at night, but I got up out of bed after he was asleep and did a Google search and JM popped up. I joined that night and started posting away on the TTC boards!

I just found out I was pregrant and was googling pregnant websites to get some information. Since my mom passed away I really don't have any female relatives I am close to so I wanted to fine some suport. I joined on here and never left.

A friend of mine was due in June 2008 just like me. She was a member of JM and kept telling me about how awesome it was. I checked it out and have never left.

I can't remember. It could be Google or maybe a suggestion from a friend on the other forum I was on.

I was googling something about charting while trying to conceive after a miscarriage, and JM came up. I browsed through the list of boards and thought it looked pretty cool, so I decided to join. I first went to the charting forum, but then I found TTCAL. I was very happy I did, because I was surprised at how supportive and close everyone is on a site this big.

A friend of mine told me about the site when I was pregnant. She forewarned me of the drama though. I see it here and there, and there was a lot of it in my ddc/pr but it has gotten a lot better. I tend to stay out of stuff like that.

I had just found out I was pregnant with my daughter and I think I googled pregnany support or something like that. I started in the 2006 due date club, then playroom, etc.
