Wouldnt a success thread make you feel better, you dont have to comment, just read stories for inspiration when your feeling fed up?

im just saying give everyone the choice to vote see what they vote for.. you never no they might all say yes... you can do a proper poll

Well Tanya has already contacted the mods so let them do what they need to do to decide. They may say no, it was just an idea, if people dont want it then fine, but if they dont i would be truley perplexed as to why not.

maybe because as happy as we are to see so many people get there dream some of us are still here and probally will be for quite a while. Esp when youv had so many goes and you feel like giving up. You have to remember not everyone thinks the same as you are atm.. sometimes it gets very very hard for some of us.. we dont all deal with the problems the same. if people chose they dont want one then thats there choice one that should be respected.

I give in.

all im saying is give people the choice do a poll but make it annonomous so ppl have private votes to see what they want.. if u dnt wanna do ill do it for u if you want?

How do i do a poll? I didnt know it could be done on this forum?

want me 2 do it for you? gotta start a new thread.

Yeah if you would, but can you make it clear it would be a thread only for success stories of those who have been through fertility treatment, who have had long hard journeys just like us, who want to inspire others not to give up after failures as if your keep trying success is just aroung the corner. The thread will just be a short entry from people who want to share their story that lead to a positive result eventually and will include such things as the cuase of the infertiltiy, secondary factors (if any), number of cycles, how many eggs retrieved, how many fertilised, how many embryos transferred and grade, EDD/DOB, how they felt throughout, sideaffects / symptoms and their journey to BFP

Cheers, i cant find how to do a poll

Wow. I have come over to LTTTC in the past 2 months and haven't really commented on many threads - mostly because I don't know a whole lot about this stuff (which is why i came over - to learn). It's looking like we are going to be referred for IVF (DH's SAs were not good) and while I haven't been through any of this yet and have nothing but the utmost respect for those who have - I think this type of thread would be very useful. BnB has been a great source of inspiration on our journey thus far. The support I have received has helped me tremendously.

But then I see threads like this. Where one comment made in a state of desperation and hopelessness is blown out of proportion and that person (who came on here for support and inspiration) ends up feeling worse. I don't think what Chocci said was a personal attack on anyone or on BnB. But someone who didn't have something relevant to share came on this thread to call her out and then insult her by saying she's all about me me me? I don't think that's a fair assumption to make. When I found out about DHs SA - I wanted to find info on successs stories with IVF too and while I love reading the journals sometimes there are just so many pages......and having this in once section would be very helpful for a lot of people.

Chocci - I am so sorry your ICSI resulted in a BFN. My heart goes out to every single member who is in this section and struggling to have a baby. Of all the places on BnB to put your two cents in and judge someone on one comment ....this is not the one.
