She was quoted a few times. The important parts anyway.
Recap: OP is shocked she got preggo in two months. OPs husband took his hat off. OP can't wait to be flooded with genuine happiness from GKU. GKU has no idea who OP is. I think that covered it.
I didn't realize that so I thought I should remove it since I didn't post correctly. I am truly sorry I just copy pasted sparklys post thinking I was supposed to follow that format

The format is not the issue. It's the fact that you have not shown any support to anyone on this board outside of the WTO/TWW threads. No one knows who the hell you are. You might as well have walked up to a group of strangers at the supermarket and announced to them that you are pregnant after trying for two whole months. *gasp* I'm sure they'd be super shocked and thrilled for you.

Sparkly is a well-known & loved member of our community. You? Who are you?

Can I un-delete? From my phone? Or do you want me to just leave? I was trying to do te right thing by removing it because you had told me I did this all wrong.

Lol. Reason number 1838482 why people should read the Newb Blog (it's still a thing, right) or at least lurk for like 5 minutes.
Also why shit like this needs to be called out immediately. So it doesn't keep happening.

Frank, one cannot lurk for 5 minutes when one is only TTC for 5 minutes. Sheesh.

Can I please not be brought into it? I was here for 6 months and participated outside WTO/TWW, made friends with, and care about these people.
I didn't expect to be "flooded with genuine happiness," but rather shared with them mine and let them know I was moving on to a BMB, rather than simply disappear.
I know who you are from WTO/TWW, but I honestly can't recall you ever posting outside of those threads except possibly to interact with people I think you know IRL that directed you here. Your OP and some of the things you said were in poor taste. If you spent any amount of time on the board, you would have seen others called out for the same types of comments, and known that they are hurtful and not taken well around here.

Dr Goose, I am genuinely happy for you. However there was so much wrong with your post. I think the primary issue for me was that you acknowledged that you hadn't been around much while waving a BFP around expecting us to celebrate. Seriously poor form. As happy as I am for you, my feelings for the ladies on the board who will be affected by this post outweighs that. H&H 9mos. Valie

Absolutely you have zero responsibility here I never meant to imply that. This was 100% my error and no one else's
I will leave now but before I do I do wish to offer my deepest apology for my terrible understanding. I should have waited until I had more time to ensure I did this correctly instead of being hasty. There is no good excuse, intentions don't mean much when what I portrayed was disrespectful, at my own fault.
"First, I need to apologize for disappearing after TWW on Saturday, all this happened Sunday and then I needed to tell H and then I had a big meeting (gone all day from 6am-6pm) yesterday so I couldn't get to share with you until today!! I actually should still be working right now wrapping some things up but it can wait :-P
Cycle/Month: 2nd cycle trying
CD/DPO: BFP was CD 24/10DPO
Timing: -3, -1, O
What we did: BBT, CM, OPKs, EOD sex except when I knew it was O day, but that was also because I was flying out of town the next day so I wanted one more time before I left.
EDD: January 15th, 2016 by LMP (14th by O date)
Symptoms: Cravings for a few days and sore boobs day before BFP. Now, still the boobs and unrelated allergies.
Why I tested early: So I originally planned to wait until 12 DPO, today, to test because my LP is usually 10-12 days and since H is off tomorrow I could have surprised him then. Well, on Saturday at 9 DPO, I had a major temp drop, like 0.6 degrees and just barely above the cover line. I had shared this with the TWW girls and I got super bummed (you can see my chart in my siggy, I stopped temping after BFP so I don't go mad). I was worried I was going to have the shortest LP I ever had, previously the shortest was 9 days a few cycles ago and I liked that all the others have been 10 or greater. Well, I woke up Sunday and my temp spiked higher than ever before. I decided to go about my morning and hold my pee until H went to work which was tough. After almost peeing my pants running to the bathroom once he left, I used a trusty Wondfo. I didn't have much hope really, after all I was just 10 DPO, so I just went back downstairs to let my dog out and put him on the leash at 5 minutes to go up and check it out. AND there it was. A second line on a Wondfo, and it was clear, and pink. I was shocked that it wasn't even a squinter. So pretty much a glaring implantation dip for me.
How I Told MH: So I shared with two close friends first (hey girls!) and sought advice for how to tell H. I decided on a card, a pacifier with some yellow ribbon to place on the card, and I bought an FRER so he wouldn't question the lighter line on the Wondfo (and he did after I showed him my original test, so grateful I got the FRER! My lines were both really clear on FRER). I taped the FRER inside the card, closed it, and put the pacifier on top of the card. Then the hard part, I had to go to his parents that day and be normal... After I got home, I was cooking dinner when he finally came home from work. Of course he wanted to do something outside real fast instead of just coming inside like normal. Luckily he's a good husband and I told him I needed him to come here first, and he came lol. On the counter he saw the pacifier.. "Uh Oh, what does that mean??" "Open it up." *opens card and sees FRER* Instantly he got the biggest and most childish smile haha and gave me a big ol' hug and kiss. It was awesome. In the aftermath he would do the old "So uhh, heh, so now what?" and "Yea that's pretty much, uh, definitely a line there" as he lifted off his hat. It was cute how thrown off he was.
The Mushy Stuff: I was recommended to come here from friends of mine, and I have just loved everything, getting to share WTO and TWW daily stories and such. I get to share the grossest stuff with you ladies and that is exactly what we all want haha. You ladies have made me feel welcome in such a short time being here. For example, I am about to be flooded with genuine happiness from all of you, and that means more than you know. Man I suck at words (hence, I am a scientist) haha but thank you all so much."

Thank you for finding it. I haven't made it home yet to try to do so myself. I will edit my early reply to include this as the OP so it can be seen on page one.
OMG - congrats ruthgoose!!! Charm City Baby in Da House!!!
*Edit*
I just wanted to say that I am bummed for you and the responses that you are getting on what should be a happy thread. I am not your friend in real life - but I think that unfortunately, the subject of the thread rubbed a lot of folks the wrong way. I think it is 100% legitimate to be surprised to get BFP after dipping to close to your cover line 9 DPO - but the subject line still rubbed folks the wrong way.
I hope that this doesn't leave a bad taste in your mouth for GKU, and that you stick around in the TCF BMB. I know who you are because you regularly post on WTO and TWW, and you shared the happy news with us that you recently successfully defended your dissertation. So I wanted to say congrats again and I am sorry that you got flamed so badly
But aside from this thread, you may be having the best.spring.EVER!!!
