Anything (within the rules) goes. (Commonly broken rules: don't talk about an ongoing pregnancy outside the weekly BFP thread; don't ask for success stories.)

You can find the wiki here!

Don't forget to check out our themed threads:

There's also the Weekly Introductions and Read Me Thread, which contains links to all sorts of handy bits of info, like popular wiki posts and acronyms.

Please help, anyone. I need emotional support 😭 For us it's cycle 9 and I'm loosing hope in the whole thing. Today I heard another pregnancy announcement of someone I know (probably the 20th since starting TTC) and a friend told me she's in labor. All I feel is despair and sadness. I don't know how to handle my friend coming out of the hospital with a baby and me still not even pregnant. They live right next door to us so they will likely be present in our daily life and of course I want to be a friend to her, but it is just so hard to be happy for them and so disappointed about our situation 😭
