VERY IMPORTANT: here's what I need for you to be invited to my blog

Wordpress is goofy. Those of you who got invites (I was only a little way into the list, so don't worry if you didn't get one) had to be deleted (sorry!) because you were able to make changes to my blog, and I obviously don't want that.

So now I have to re-invite everyone BUT you have to have a wordpress account FIRST. If you don't have a wordpress account with the email you sent me (asking for an invite) you can't have access to my blog.

I'm sorry this is such a hassle, but it's the only way to do it.

READ CAREFULLY:

>Go to wordpress.com
>Click on the big green box that says "sign up now!"
>Create a username (unique to you)
>Create a password
>enter email address (the one you sent me asking for an invite)
>You will get an email asking you to CONFIRM your sign up.

After this I will be able to add you.

Unfortunately I have to set a time limit for you to do this or else it will take eons to get 750 invites out if people haven't created their accounts.

So the deadline is:

July 4th (that's 2 weeks from today)

After that I won't be able to add you (unless you were out of town and have a really good excuse!)

Again I'm sorry but it's really important to me to be able to make my blog private. I want to feel comfortable posting pictures of my baby and family without having the whole world to see it. (this is NOT just about one person...)

Thanks!

Valley Mom said...

So if we ALREADY have a prior Wordpress account, we just wait for your invite correct? If we've already emailed you or email address?

When you say "enter an email address...the one we used to ask for an invite", is that our email address OR the yahoo one you told us to enter? Just checking! Thanks:)

Hi Rachel,
I already have a wordpress blog under AMeyerPhoto, and I had emailed you previously. I'm still not able to access your blog - am I doing something wrong?

I just got back from our honeymoon and saw the post. I opened up a wordpress account using my gmail account. I am trying to find your blog to request an invite. I hope to keep reading your amazing story I let my SIL know of your story(she is battling IF right now) and goes for IVF #2 in September. You are such an inspiration to us all!
