Why?

It seems like the only topics that get lots of responses are BFP posts. It's just disheartening to have a question and get like 2 responses but the second a BFP post comes up people come out of the woodwork to respond. It's upsetting to continue this struggle and feel ignored and see so many BFP and responses. Vent over...

(((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))))
I know how you feel Lizzy. I hate when asking a ? or posting something besides a BFP and you can see how many peps looked at your post, yet it's days before someone says something.
Then all the BFPs, where are OURS?!?!?! AAAUURRGGHHH!!!
I swear some women just think they want to be pg and without even trying they are! Are they drinking some kind of water that I don't know about?!?!? I'm seriously getting to the desperate stage

ITA. I don't go to the TTC main board hardly ever. And when I do, if I respond, it's to a question. I wish I could help answer or give input on more topics, but sometimes I just don't have a clue about them.

I know what you mean! I was thinking the same thing. I think it is because of 2 reasons:

1) someone has already answered your question, so everyone would just tell you the same thing

2) people don't know the answer so they don't respond, but with BFP's all you have to say is the same old congrats and HH9M.

Don't feel bad, I'm sure a lot girls just don't know how to answer the question posts!

I know what you mean, I think most of us here are just so eager to get pregnant that as soon as one of us does we want to know asap how they did it. It's almost like if we can find out how they did it there is a small chance we can do it too. I think that's why so many people view the BFP posts before the other ones.
I know it's frustrating when you need advice and no one responds. Keep trying though you never know who's reading!

Thanks ladies. I was having a poo-poo day. I understand that questions get less replies because not everyone has an answer. And you are right BFP posts all ya gotta do is say congrats. I am feeling better.
