MNHQ, a suggestion regarding the 'conception' board.

I posted on there about possibly being unexpectedly pregnant after a condom mishap, this was met with a cry of me being 'insensitive'.

How ever I feel there will be alot of women who have 'accidents' and want to talk about waiting to test afterwards and 'conception' seemed the only place for me to talk about that.

Perhaps there should be a 'conception' board - to talk about the process of conception and any other issues.

and a 'trying for a baby' board for those who are activly trying to concieve.

I understand that but its not labled as a 'TTC' board its 'conception' and that is possibly what has happened.

So where are women that aren't TTC but find themselves possibly pregnant supposed to post if the 'conception' board is mostly ladies trying for a baby?

I wouldn't want to upset anyone, but at the same time am in an upsetting situation myself and was looking for support and answers to my questions.

I think on such wide and varied board you are going to offend one person or another no matter what you post or where you post it.

It is understandable if you have been trying for a baby for years with no luck to find it galling(to say the least) when other people end up pregnant by mistake.

Not suggesting you posted trying to upset or were being flippant about making mistakes, I haven't read your thread BTW, but the vast majority or people on the conception boards are actively trying for babies.
