Hello. I was wondering if you can recomed your favorite fertility forum?  I tried fertilityfriend.com, but you had to pay to be a member after 30 days and I know there are to many free ones out there to pay to for one.

I will come back here if/when I manage to get pregnate. This board if full of happy pregnate people (who I am happy for all of them) but its just to hard to look here each day.

Thank you!!!

I can understand it being hard at times to be on this forum. But, I can say that a lot of women on here have struggled with infertility and are pregnant with the help of fertility treatments and/or recommendations from other posters on this forum. Also, when I was going through my miscarriage, it was coming here to people who have walked through what I was going through that helped me.

I use fertility friend to chart my periods and etc. I have actively been trying (charting and etc) for over a year. I did three rounds of IUI and got pregnant. I lost the baby at 8 1/2 weeks. I am currently in the beginning stages of round four of IUI. So, I am struggling just like most.

I am not knocking you for not wanting to come here. You have to do what is right for you. But for me, it is helpful. I see those struggling to get pregnant and when they get pregnant it gives me hope that I might be one of them one day. Plus, I wanted you to know that there are those of us out here struggling with infertility that are not happy pregnant women :)

Best wishes,
Traci

I've been on www.ovusoft.com since 2001. I've had 13 years of infertility and finally pg after IVF / DE. I've been through a lot but I love the board though!

Oh hun, don't not come here just cause you are not preggers. I have been coming here for months and have had wonderful support. You can get info from all these wonderful ladies that have fertility problems. I love this board almost as much as I love the GLBT forum. (Supporter) When I got pregnant the first month I tried I felt bad for all the women that have been trying. But I got crants from them too. I also was welcomed into the "miscarriage club" with tears and open arms for hugs and shoulders to cry on.

I guess what I am trying to say is this board isn't just for when you get pregnant. It's for all stages of the journey to giving birth.

I do know what you mean about being too hard to be here. I had to take a break while I healed but I am back now.

Kim,

I am sorry for your struggles to conceive. I struggled with infertility and then retention issues for many, many years.

Babycenter.com used to have some great forums for those TTC. I frequented the multiple miscarriage boards for many years before conceiving my 1st son. Then again when TTC #2. It has probably changed some since then, but it's a place to start. I made some wonderful friends through the BBC forum and we still are in touch today.

Another possibility is Yahoo groups. I'm not as familiar with that, but I know there are several TTC forums.

Other than OH, I'm not familiar with any other WLS-specific TTC forums. As the pp's said, there are women of all stages here so please feel free to lurk or post if you find it helpful.

Wishing you success!

I dealt with infertility for a long time also. My favorite site is Hannahsprayer.org. Its a Christian site, and the women there are very caring
