Sorry guys to hear about your past experiences. I was abused by my grandad when I was a child, and this affected me in so many different ways, but I have not let the horrible experiences drag me down, and now I have 2 beautiful children and a wonderful and loving hubby.
I am very protective of my kids, I have grown and learnt from my experiences, and I feel these kinds of things make us stronger.
God bless, and good luck to you both,
Shim.

Hi all
I'm 24 (25 in 2 weeks) and DH is 32, we got married in March and have been together since April 2005. He picked me up off the floor one night.. literally.
Anyhow, we've been TTC since January 2007 after starting hormone therapy in September 2006 to clear my endometriosis. Last year I mc at just under 12 weeks and then had an ectopic prenancy. Have just had my right tube removed and now hoping AF shows her face so we can start TTC again, bring on the 2009 babies for us all!!!!!
Christine... At 18 I was raped and my DH, who was only a friend at the time, was the first person that I told as well and we have been together ever since too.
Your OH sounds amazing! I am really hoping for your
Thank you! And you know....it helps knowing that someone understands what I have been through. I was on cafe mom and this girl admitted to lying about being raped for attention.No one thought it was a big deal. It really pissed me off. That is why so many girls don't report it......they are afraid no one will believe them. Gotta say,this place is better than cafe mom. I don't know if it is because we are more mature,or that we care more about our children or getting pregnant than bitching at eachother

The following user says 'Thanks' to APBTlover for this post:
#1 - That girl would have pissed me off too. My situation was a date rape situation with a co-worker and I literally lost it for a while as I was a virgin and just couldn't deal with things for a few months. I didn't press charges because (geez... almost 10 years ago now), I was in no condition to handle being blamed. I couldn't handle when someone would say, "Well, what did you do to cause it." I just wasn't strong enough at the time to say, "I was stupid and got drunk with someone I barely knew but they drugged me and I was unconscious through most of it. That was not my fault." I did let people influence me and make me believe that I caused it somehow and it took me a long time to realize that it was not true. So, when people make up stories like that with no understanding of the truly how awful that situation is, it just makes me want to smack the crap out of them. I am glad you came to BnB!
#2 - Yeah, I love this site too. Thanks to wonderful mods who hold down the fort and keep us safe from trolls, we have a wonderfully drama-free site full of supportive and informative women. I can honestly say that even though I have never met them face to face that I really consider some of the ladies here friends and I hope someday we can all get the chance to meet.
Oh, I so would. I would tell DH, I have to go to England and meet BnB girls. Hmmm... I wonder if he'd let me? If I could come up with the money, I bet I could. LOL!
Hi folks. Am 27. I had my son five years ago in the middle of university- needless to say he was a bit of a surprise (but very loved). Five years later we are finally financially ready to give him a sibling, so this is our first month ttc.
I second (third, fourth, etc.) the applause for this board- great folks, lots of laughs, little drama. Keeps the ol' stress level down, and that's all you need to conceive, right? Just relax??? Screw all this business, all I really need to do is book a massage and next thing you know:
Anyway, a bit about myself, I work in the non-profit sector, am a feminist who has an unhealthy love for
My husband is in the "creative nerd" industry, and has an unhealthy love for though these days he plays more than he watches, Canadian cable being the wasteland that it is.
Looking forward to getting to know all of you.
p.s. Also have minor addiction to smilies. But I can stop anytime I want to. Really.
which is perfect
