you find JM????

My story goes back all the way to Nov 2005. I was just married and we decided to start TTC. AF was late but i was getting neg on HPT so I was on the internet looking for answers. It was on google, that I came across a forum called MorningSickness. It was really small and there were only about 20 of us. spent my whole pregnancy with Sophie on that board and a year later we moved over to this board! I can't believe it has been like 3 1/2 years that i have been on these boards!!!

Last April I was starting to get the baby bug more than ever and I was just looking for a place with other people in my situation. My DBF didnt want kids at that time at all (he didnt NOT want them ever he just didnt want them then) so I joined "I want a baby but my partner doesnt" then when we decided when we would ttc I joined "Waiting to try to Conceive" then when the time came I join the grads!!

I was on another message board called Parenting Club and I left that one because the overall atmosphere chnaged and I didn't enjoy being there. So in April of 2006 when Edward was just 9 months old or so, I came to JM. Then we had to cancel our internet connection and during that time we moved a few times. Then two years ago, when we moved to where we are living now, I got back on. I'd lost touch with people so I jumped on the WTTC board because we weren't trying but also we weren't preventing. So that's how I got here! And met all of you!

We had just decided on a date that we would start TTC. I had just made a preconception appt, so I jumped on google and typed in "waiting to try to conceive" and JM popped up so I lurked for about 2 weeks and decided to join!

i was actually searching for plus size pregnancy info and the Plus Size Mommies board came up. I lurked a little there and then decided to explore the rest of JM. I didn't join until a few months later in June of '06.

I think I yahoo'd pregnancy forums or something of the sort, and then BOOM! I found JM!

a friend linked me to her birth story posted in one of the 2007 birth clubs and I saw the boards and fell in love. I had my account deleted last august or so, but joined again a month later.

I started thinking about babies and new that I wanted to start that chapter of my life. I was doing lots of research on the internet and stumbled across the forum. After lurking for a bit, I signed up.

I found myself unexpectantly pregnant in 2005, with my now DH. While online researching info and options, JM popped up. I was on the unplanned pregnancy board for awhile, but then at 12 weeks we found out the baby had died. I took a long break from JM after that. In 2008 after we'd been married a few months, baby fever set in and I came back to JM. I settled in at WTTC, and the rest is history.

DH and I had been casually talking about TTC and we decided to start to try in Oct '07. I was active on a cat forum and loved it, so I sought out a forum for TTC and found a few. I choose JM because it was the most active. I joined right away and jumped into the TTC board. Then I moved over to WTTC after a few months because we decided to NTNP (and there isn't a board for that, is there?). Then I started stalking the grads section and joined that officially 6 or 7 months ago. Wheeeeeeeeee!

And I haven't gone back to the cat forum in all that time, he he!

I was soooo naive!

I found out I was pregnant with Curtis in Mayish 2006. I thought maybe it was left over HCG from my miscarriage way long time before.. so embarrassing haha.

So obviously the kind ladies said there was no possible way, so I got excited and joined the January 07 DDC

I was just getting curious about the idea of TTC (mainly because 2 of my best friends were pregnant). It was Dec 05!

IamMom · #13 January 30th, 2009, 06:21 PM

I found JM when I was yahoo'ing about how long to wait to TTC after going off certain RA medications (my hubby has RA) back in February or so of 2008. The waiting to TTC board on JM popped up - I thought how neat. I lurked for a few days and then joined. I've tried to get involved in other boards on JM and just can't I love the WTTC girls too much and just can't get into any other board.

I was looking for a different site that I had posted on in August 2005 after my m/c and found JM instead

I've been here sense September 9th, 2005

I was trying to find ways to increase the chances of getting pregnant right away and ways to increase your changes of having a boy.....google search brought me to JM! The wanting to have a specific gender (or something like that board-which is very slow), well I was jumping the gun because we sill had 6 months before TTC and then i did a SEPARATE google search about Waiting to trying to conceive and I AGAIN got JM--so I decided it must be pretty cool i joined the day I found it (1/24/08).
