Unfortunately - since this points to how many couples are joining each group each day. I don't think you'd ever be alone on a list (and if someone was, I'm sure you could use the blurriness of people's categories to shift things around a bit).<BR/><BR/>So I think the benefit of having that head's up outweighs the risk of making someone feel crappy and left out.<BR/><BR/>BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877513815828460269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-85617735406770000492008-01-26T03:54:00.000-05:002008-01-26T03:54:00.000-05:00I'd like the DE category to include thos eof us wh...I'd like the DE category to include thos eof us who are pg or have had a child...<BR/><BR/>I'd actually like DE/donor embryos and DIVF to be separate if possible<BR/><BR/>xxDrowned Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07930956007436787200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-71109110262097500712008-01-25T21:34:00.000-05:002008-01-25T21:34:00.000-05:00For what it's worth - I'm sans kids myself for now...For what it's worth - I'm sans kids myself for now, but I really, really like this. When I read blogs of those with kiddos and the child is mentioned, I often wonder how old the child is if it's not specifically mentioned so that I can get a visual for the particular situation. For instance, you talk about the ChickieNob and Wolvog quite a bit, but since I just started blogging last fall I missed out on many of their milestones thus far and didn't really know if they were 2 or 6. So anyway, thank you. It looks fantastic!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-33108042540263371882008-01-25T21:17:00.000-05:002008-01-25T21:17:00.000-05:00Hey Mel,I emailed you my info on the Play Date...p...Hey Mel,<BR/><BR/>I emailed you my info on the Play Date...perhaps adding Mom/Dad's first name/nickname and their email addy would be nice?<BR/><BR/>I think the parenthesis are a good idea.
