Dough,

It wasn't so much to seperate the teens from the adults but rather that of women who are pregnant after infertility or loss. I wouldn't want the teens who do find themselves pregnant to think that we are trying to disclude them or anything along those lines.

However thanks for listening to the concerns people have been talking about on here.

Hi thanks for listening. I feel totally comfortable in the pregnancy community its just sometimes i feel that people get onto us teens because we have no experience. It may be a good idea to have a seperate community but i enjoy being able to speak to older mums and people that do have experience as most of them are understanding. but i also have the vote up for a seperate community for teen pregnancys because we can be a bit immature at sometimes. thank u x

Please add this post on the infertility community. I feel that is the where you really should be putting this question. Many of the women who want the seperate board don't even come over here anymore, if they ever did.

hello,

There should deffinetly be two diffrent groups in one form or another. However I think some of the threds that are posted are a little upsetting, such as diffrent members being upset because they can't drink, smoke or even tan while they are pregnant. I personaly had no trouble conceving my first child how ever after one miscarage and 2 1/2 years of trying and finaly geting pregnant 9 weeks ago after undergoing fertility drugs , i am upset with what i read at times. I personaly every day hope nothing goes wrong in my pregnancy , however, i don't want to be involved in a pregnancy community that can only concern them selves with being insensative to some of its new members and some of its current ones. Let me just say that i am for 2 groups pregnancy and pregnancy after infertility and loss. It seperates us in a way that we can help each other out with our knoledge of infertility , miscarage, and pregnancy under one group. Lets just say if a teenager had the loss i had a year and a half ago, i don't believe they would be as effected as my husband and my self.

I'm not sure who 2 agree with.In ways I think that 2 or maybe3 groups would be better but it depends on what their for becuase I come for the advise of the older more knowledgeable women I think that this would never have happened if the infertility women would have minded there own bizness and stayed in their group. I don't meen to offend n-e one I just used to love the way this group was before all this stuff started happening

Love you guys Cherise

I think two gruops are a great idea. One for pregnancy and one for pregnancy after infertility and loss. I read some of the conflict stuff and feel bad it is happening. goodluck to everyone!

i'm not sure if i place under teen or adult.i'm kinda inbetween. i'm at the adult age. but i'm still a kid. id like to be together, but apperently some people have a problem with it being that way.
so i dont know. id like people to understand theres a reason to have both adults and teens in here. some have more experiance than others.some can relate, and some can listen. it works out perfectly.
but i guess if people want it seprate. i think id rather stick with the teens. at least i wont be descriminated about my age.

My understanding is it was NOT an age thing. That people who have gotten pregnant after trying and failing for years wanted a separate site. A site for women of any age who went through years of infertility or maybe miscarriages before they finally had success! A site where they could discuss their past fertility struggles and current joy of being pregnant.

just an FYI...i am reading this, as are other DS folks. we're going to collect opinions and we'll do something next week. keep those thoughts coming.

hey everyone, I am s DS advisor, and I tend to focus on the infertility and miscarriage communities. I have been reading along with doug, and I am sorry that so much fighting has been taking place here: it is upsetting, and exactly the opposite of what we wanted for these communities. We need your help here-really think about what is best for this community, and it's members/ new and old...do we split you all into two or three or more different sub-catagories? I see how that might narrow the group with whom you communicate, and MIGHT cut down on the discussion problems, but I think you are also narrowing the pool of support, advice and experience available to you, and that is the beauty of this site.
Please feel free to send me a message with your thoughts on this, or post.

i relly like this group....i feel i have loads of mums in here!!just sometimes feel a lil bit teamed out because im so young.....but then again it could just me being a stuck up c*w with my hormones all over the bloomen place xx
