Aaaand I got flamed.
Apparently, I am not allowed to show my dismay at all the new girls who got KU after a month or two when I and many of the regulars have been trying a lot longer. My bad.

After 22 cycles and 4 failed IUIs, Serafina joined our family through IVF/ICSI, born 8.28.12
Surprise! The Sequel is due 12.8.14!
Re: Aaaand I got flamed.
I don't think you are wrong for feeling the way you do at all. I know that the thought never even crossed my mind to post on any other boards than this one when I found out I was pregnant. That is the kind of news that you share with your home board. I think some people on the GP board just post that they got their BFP because they want to hear "Congratulations!" and while there isn't anything wrong with that, I can see how it would sting if it was someone you didn't really "know" on that board.
Confession (and I may dd this part because I am ashamed to admit it): I often feel really guilty about the fact that I got pregnant without really trying. I feel even more guilty when I get down in the dumps about how much my life is going to change- I know I am going to have to give up some liberties and I feel so selfish for being upset about that. There are people that want to be pregnant so badly and here I am thinking negatively about what someone would consider a complete joy.
Amen to this exactly!
Well, my post was basically a comment about all the recent BFPs that are so new that I don't even recognze their names when they announce. I was not mean about it at all, just wondering if anyone else had noticed the trend (there were literally like 6 in the last 2 weeks) and I said it was pretty tough on me. But, one of the BFP girls said I had a bad attitude and many others agreed with me and started coplaining about the newbie girls who introduce themselves, never post anything, and then announce their BFP 2 months later. This was not the intention of my thread so I got rid of it. Everyone was pretty cool though. I've been on the board longer than many of them, so it wasn't too bad. In fact, a bunch of girls yelled at me for DDing because it was the most exciting thread to happen in a while.
