that i consider you guys like my real life friends. I talk about youto other people like we have met in person. Ill be like ya my freind carrie is on the same cd or Jane did that drug. Its like we know so much about eachother and can talk in our own langusge with out having to give a small class on IF. When i have a question thought concern or anything I go to you guys first. I pray for you all and wait in anticipation when you have a test or ER or any of the wonderful things we have done. I cry for you and hope for you. So am i crazy to feel as close to you guys or closer to some of you than my own real life i can touch friends? Is this the start of me loosing my mind?

I don't think you are crazy at all. :) It is really good to feel that this group of ladies is not judgemental, and understands us in one of the most vulnerable times of our lives. It is a safe place! We are on all kinds of meds that make us feel like crap and some of us are not taking the meds we used to take that made us feel better, because we are planning to be pregnant. For many of us, not even our husbands really understand us right now, or our sisters or our closest friends since childhood, because they haven't gone through this . . . OK, now I'm getting choked up!

It is not weird what so ever!! This is the first place I go to when I have a concern. There is not anyone that I can talk to about this, and to my DH I sound like a broken record, so I don't even bring it up with him anymore, unless he starts talking about it first. U guys are definatly my support. I only wished you guys lived closer.

If it's weird, then I'm a weirdo too! I do the same thing. I tell you girls things I don't rell anybody else. I cry when I read of BFNs or m/c's and feel excitement (okay, and a little jealousy) when I read of BFPs. My husband has realized now when he doesn't recognize the name of the person I'm talking about, she must be one of my DS sisters. I'm so excited getting my cards in the mail from you guys too. It is so nice ot be able to share things and not be judged and to receive support and advice from women who are actually going through the same thing as me. I love you guys!!!

I feel the same way you guys know more about what is going on withmy situation than my own family excluding my DH if I would tell someone that I have follies they would just kinda look at me like huh? I also come here first and look forward to the new posts and discussions.

I feel the exact same way, I havent been here long But have gotton so close to alot of you. I cry when you cry I hurt when you hurt and you do the same with me. I don't feel I can share things with my "real friends" like I can with you guy. I care deeply for each and every one of you:P

I do the same thing. My friend Chiacourt just had her baby...and my friend NoPeaforMe is having twins, etc....my hubby just laughs but thinks its great. I mean - without this board how many of us would be struggling ALONE in all this.
