I totally agree

Where's the love button, I have noticed the pettiness of clicking negative when it's clearly positive and vice versa

agree with most of what you are saying but telling people not to give advice??? I have had some great advice from ladies on here, advice I would never have thought to ask for. Some ladies on here have been trying for years and know more than most doctors about hints and tips on ttc.
I had a short luteal phase and the doctors had no advice, ladies on here identified the problem and gave me advice on how to fix things. It wasn't asked for and was gratefully received. This site would be useless and boring if we all blew smoke up each other's backsides. I don't believe in criticism or being cruel but if a woman thinks she has a bfp on the day of ovulation, which has happened, I will advise her to use a different test. Especially when the brand used gave my friends false positives that same month.
You have given advice on pregnancy tests yourself without being asked??
And while I'm on my rant, people post pics of tests that look like they have two lines but if the pic was taken over 10 mins then it is considered negative, the same also applies if the test window has pink dye running through it which can be cleared by a drop of water, but that would be unasked for advice.
I find your post a little offensive, no one should try to police someone's opinion. Very few women on here are negative to others, they give advice on personal experience and out of kindness.
You have the right to tell a woman what she wants to hear and others have the right to their opinion. I'm sorry if you are not benefiting from the advice on this site but from someone who has been on here a while I felt the need to stick up for the ladies taking the time to try help!

Do y'all think it's positive? Help! Idk what to think at this point

THANK YOU! I really appreciate you mentioning the BULLYING also! I saw a test the other day that was clearly a positive without a doubt and she confirmed it as a positive and someone had clicked negative, I was seeing red, I commented on her image and said congrats but wanted to go off on the!@#%^ that would be like that..we're all here for the same reason, be happy for one another! We're all hoping for the + !! The joy it brings is priceless, don't be petty

Totally agree with you on this. I've only just joined after browsing this forum for years due to some comments/attitudes etc. Every women's body is different as is each pregnancy. I'm not trying to be rude to anyone on here, I just believe people should take into consideration how every woman differs throughout their cycle and even though there is some excellent advice on here, no one is a doctor. sometimes it feels,some women are frustrated, maybe with the repetitiveness of questions but that's what this forums for, surely. Anyway hope I haven't offended anyone because that's not my intention, let's be honest, ttc is bloody exhausting lol

Hi,
I agree every woman's body is different and thankfully I have never come across anyone being impatient with others on here. I have known someone that edited past posts to manipulate everyone to say she was pregnant. She would ask for advice but got angry and defensive because she wasn't hearing what she wanted. She then made me out to be a bully and a liar and because she had changed her posts and temps which made me look bad. I was leaving and was in tears because I have found amazing friends on here. The women on my thread realized what was going on and supported me.
Unfortunately some people on here are not genuine and change their story on multiple occasions. These people are a mockery to the honest people on here.
I'm not saying their are not negative people on here but compared to other sites where some ladies are really brutal and cruel I think the majority of ladies are really supportive.
The pregnancy test gallery pics are not a good resolution or quality so a squinter rarely shows on a photo and an early second line can look like an evap unless it's obviously pink. People take tests apart which voids a test. I don't understand being upset at a negative vote, if it is positive it should be clearer each day. If all you are interested in is getting smoke blown up your butt then write it in your post or in the title of your pic. A negative vote in a pic cannot be considered bullying for goodness sake, it may be petty but unless there are cruel comments included how is it bullying??
Why join a site if all you see is bad and negative things?
