I have gone back and forth on this. I LOVE this board and I am really having a hard time doing this but I would really like to give someone else the opportunity to cohost. I have kind of stopped charting since I started the birth control Next cycle is going to be a medicated and monitored cycle (if it happens) so I just don't really feel like charting. Hopefully I am going to get pregnant and if that happens I won't be charting for 9 months. Then if I have a baby, I probably won't even have an AF for another year after that. See where I am going with this? I can see myself not needing to chart for another year to 2 years. I really enjoy answering charting questions and stalking everyone's charts but I am not sure when I will be charting again. It just doesn't seem right to host the charting board and not chart.

I know there are a ton of girls here that would make a great cohost (hint, hint, hint) that I really hope will apply to cohost it. I will be sticking around and answering questions but my heart is just not in charting at the moment.

Awww Patty, you will be missed a co-host on this board. I can totally understand why you feel that way though. I am very excited about your future and what it holds! I cant wait for you to get your BFP!!!

I hope things work out so you don't need to chart again any time soon.

[DeepSouthMommy]

Aww, Patty! I hate to see you step down, but if you are I'm glad that you will still be around. You always manage to have answers to the questions that stump the rest of us. I am keeping my fingers crossed and saying lots of prayers that you are able to go for a while without the need to chart due to pregnancy!!

[KatieHeitman]

Aww...Patty. You will be missed as a co-host. You're a great co-host, but I can see where you're coming from about not needing/wanting to chart for a while. I hope you get your BFP from IVF. Good luck! I'm glad you'll be sticking around though.

You have been a great co-host!!! I know you have helped me answer many questions. Thanks for all of you hard work!

[HopefulMommy81]

Patty, Thanks for being such a wonderful co-host as well as a wonderful friend and resource for those of us charting! Please continue to hang out with us here, and here's to hoping you don't have to chart for 2 years!

[Mod-LilSunshine]

Awww...I'm sad to see you step down. I glad that you are starting the meds and I Hope to see that you got your bfp really soon!!

[Admin-pattyandthemoos]

I have felt really sad about this too. I have been thinking about it for a while but kept wanting to stay on as cohost because didn't want to lose what we have over here. Before I started cohosting here the board was pretty slow so I have been excited to see it so active now. I hope that it stays that way so someone better volunteer to cohost!

I am not going anywhere but I just want to enjoy being a regular member over here.

You have been such a terrific cohost, always so helpful and knowledgeable! I know you have answered MANY of my questions! I am sad to see you step down, but at the same time I understand your reasoning behind it! Can't wait to see that BFP!!!

Don't worry. I am not leaving you. I love this board too much.

[Shalyn]

I'm sad you're stepping down Patty but I want to thank you so much for all you have shared with us. You always have insight and make us all feel better w/ it.

I hope you'll still be around to help us out and mostly that you get your VERY soon!

[Coley]

I already PM'd you... but I wanted to reply here too!

I feel like such a dork because I totally missed this while I was out buying my Christmas tree and dragging out decorations and all that jibber... still not finished yet!

You know I love you and will miss you being my fellow Co-host... but you're still gonna be here on the board, we'll still get the benefit of all of your knowledge, when we run into a wacky chart, we'll still be able to yell "PATTY!!!!" So that makes me feel a bit better.

Most importantly, you've gotta do what's right for you. That's part of what this is all about... you've gotta listen to your body and your spirit. If you're not getting the same thing out of it that you used to, then it is time.

YAY for being a "regular member"!!!!

[Sweetpea79]

oh Patty shoot...I was just coming back around too...
I don't know if you even remember me it's be a little over a year since I co-hosted TTC forum. I understand your emotions and all involved with everything... Big Hugs!!

I will definately miss you as a cohost, Patty. You did a really great job, and whipped this board into shape. I never dreamed it would become so popular! I hope you will still stalk, and I guess i'll be seeing you at the TCC with MA board anyway. Just wanted to say how much I appreciated you here.

[faysdt414]
