However, any post on the bulletin board or message submitted in the chatrooms must be given with a sense of respect and caring for the other person. The real objective of our community is to learn more about infertility,meet new friends and most of all, not feel alone.

Do not post links to your ebay (or other auctions sites) items for sale on Fertile Thoughts' message boards or in our chatrooms.

These posts will be deleted and repeat offenders may be banned from the site without further warning.
