Group Activity
The mom below me is wearing green ?
Several TTC specialty groups have been added to the Trying to Conceive category on the main group indexes for BabyBump and Pink Pad, including TTC and Charting and TTC 35+. In addition, we are also featuring a TTC user-created group in the Featured Group section on Pink Pad - Plus Sized and TTC.
We hope that these subsets of Trying to Conceive will offer supportive areas to make new friends and connect with those experiencing similar problems and situations.
To offer feedback on the new groups, please feel free to write to us at support@alt12.com.
Best wishes,

FAQ: How do you make the little pictures?
Answer: Many members use outside emoticon applications that integrate with forums to be able to include small pictures and emblems with their posts.
This kind of picture is called "emoji." There are many free and pay versions of this category of application available through your platform's app store. Emojis are built in to the newest versions of iPhone's ios.
I do.
I don't want to go on with a long post about my pregnancy and birth plan unless others are interested in sharing theirs and learning from each others plans....
