How the greatest communication tool ever invented is helping strangers fulfill the farthest reaching fertility ambitions…

OMG, DH and I DTD last night cos my I POAS and CBFM was on PK – the LH surge was super-strong – but I don’t think I’ve O’d – this AM my temp’s still 97.3 and I’ve still got tons of EWCM. How’m I gonna get DH to BD again tonight? And I’m so worried about my LP only being 8 days last cycle – do you think I have a chance of a BFP this month? Babydust!’*

 If you know exactly what this means – and perhaps you’ve even got a response in mind – chances are you’ve spent time on an online fertility forum. From fertilityfriend.com to peeonastick.com, twoweekwait.com, babyandbump.com and of course fertilityroad.com, the rise of fertility discussion forums on the internet has created a vast new world in which women trying for a baby are charting their fertility signs online, sharing information and trying to support one another, all talking in the language of fertility. As any poster on a fertility chatroom knows, nothing is ever ‘TMI’. Posters tell one another things their partners and closest friends don’t know.
