We have a lot of new faces popping up and a lot of one-time visitors, and I'm not sure if everyone has had a chance to read the TTCAL posting guidelines. If you're mentioning a pregnancy, or if you're mentioning a possible pregnancy, please be sure to say so in the title of your post. I, for one, am having a really, really hard time dealing with my loss, and when I open a post and it's someone asking questions related to their brand-new pregnancy, it feels like a punch in the gut, because I'm not expecting it. Literally, my stomach reels. (However, if the title says preg ment, I can often post right away because I'm expecting it, or at least within a couple of days when I'm in a better mood, without feeling like that.) I know I'm not the only one who feels this way, because it's a rule that exists for TTCAL as a whole, so I'm not alone. Please just remember to do that for those of us who aren't always strong enough to read about pregnancies, whether they're actual or even just potential. Thanks!

I hope my BFP post from last week was not offensive...I don't post as often as some people but feel like I do post somewhat regularly and just didn't want you guys to think I dropped of the face of the earth  I still come back and check out the threads everyday to see what everyone is up to...this board helped me tremendously while dealing with my loss and I am eternally grateful for all the support and advice everyone gave to me during that time! I hope you all get your BFP's very very soon with sticky babies to go along with it!

I agree as well! I post here for the regular friendly stuff now that I'm in the graduation process.... but I don't really feel like its my place to be posting pictures of my ultrasounds or anything else. When I was going through my loss in December, it was super hard to read about someone else's pregnancy and how great it was ...and while I wanted to be happy for her...I was falling apart inside. And I definitely don't want to be "that person" for someone else who's in pain here.

Just a reminder about putting "preg ment" or "poss preg ment" in titles
