DD this post because I think that the sequence of events in my day has led what I initially wrote to seem like I was behaving in poor taste towards the ladies over here.
Rather than risk further offense or confusion I DD'd...
All I'll say now is that I'm sorry to anyone out there who read it and felt like I was being a douchebag...anyone who "knows" me here will tell you this isn't the first time I've said something that sounded bitchy or stupid, but was misunderstood/misinterpreted.
Anyways, trying to be sensitive to this board. SO sorry. And sun and jewel, if you hadn't pointed it out, I'd never have realized how this post seemed to be coming accross.
I wish everyone here the best in everything. :heart: and ({) (})
No, no this wasn't a post in reference to my news at all. I wrote TWO posts on GP today, and in the initial one I was still in limbo/uncertain, and that's what I was referencing in this post. This post here was BEFORE I wrote the second post on GP.
I'm so, so sorry it looked differently as a result of my second post today. I would never be so base you guys. I have a heart, I have compassion, I know so many of your stories, why the hell would comeon here and make you feel like shit intentionally??
I'll delete the initial post to help eliminate further confusion?? Or swizz and cheesecake can delete the thread?
You know...I've just decided, just to avoid any other hurting/side eyes/frustrations/etc I'm going to DD the post. I'm really, really sorry if it looked like I would do something so cold and unfeeling to you guys over here.

No hard feelings...I know the bolded is true, and I know it's never been your intention
I did see both posts, and even the first was a little side-eye-worthy. The OMG-I'm 4 cycles in and a week late-something's wrong with me! was a little overboard.....The most logical answer was that you're late because you're pregnant, which turned out to be true. It's like all the OMG-I'm 3dpo and I felt a twinge-could I be pg? type posts that end up on the GP board.
It's really nothing personal, it's just the type of newbie worry that we're trying to avoid around here. For the most part, it doesn't bother me, and I don't think it bothers some of the others, but when you're having a difficult day, it's nice to be able to easily avoid all of those types of posts.
It's not you, it's our sensitive little feelers that have grown through IF. I'm sure we all wish we could be posting those newbie, naive posts still too.
And, I said it in the other post and in your announcement post, but CONGRATS! I am really happy for you, and wish you a happy and healthy 9 months.
