Okay ladies, some of you need to remember this is a Baby app for pregnancy... If you Dont like people's posts about their pregnancies and babies.... Get a new app. Its getting a bit ridiculous. First time moms are gonna be excited and want to talk about their experiences. So no need to be nasty to them or treat them like they are stupid... Let's keep the peace.
Honestly people on here can be harsh, but the second amendment kinda lets them. And im sure some people appreciate you coming to their defense, but you should be aware you are honna get flamed and made fun if just for trying. Just saying, it happens weekly, people should just figure this out by now.
Okay since no one is getting my point on not being a douche I'm deleting my post..... Be unhappy and rude. I'm just trying to defend the ones on here that get lashed for literally posting anything. Its really ridiculous. Get a life!
You must be new here. But really the best way to make friends and not be on the receiving end of a wave of snark is to not just jump up and tell people on a PUBLIC forum how to act.
Ive been here for awhile and know personally just because D14 doesn't wipe ass and paint rainbows doesn't make anyone mean.
Get your bingo cards out ladies, this one is gonna give us bingos quick!
I bet she's gonna pray for us, our husbands, and our unborn feti next.
Seriously, this is a public venue and we are not violating the TOU. There are PLENTY of FTMs posting here, some even starting as recently as last week. And they were polite, lurked before posting to get a feel for the board, didn't post duplicate posts of threads already on the first page of posts, and generally didn't make a pest of themselves. Maybe you should try that.
@cambricalvin not sure why you love tit my post, but I wasn't agreeing with you. You called someone else honey and then when someone called you honey you said it was condescending....
This is old. Nobody cares. Ain't nobody paying you to post on here - we'll let you see yourself out.
This is a internet board. I'm not gonna back down you people are rude and disrespectful.. How would you like me to see myself out?? Its my board. Dont let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya on your way out! I'm aloud to speak my mind just as much as anyone else. Dont like it. LEAVE.

Given that I'm Canadian and the American Constitution doesn't apply to me, I'm pretty sure all of the amendments in it mean nothing to me. Also, isn't the 2nd amendment the one about guns?
We can express ourselves openly on here because the creators of the site allow it, not because a legal document in one country allows us to.

I'm glad someone said it. The internet is not America and I'm bit disturbed by the idea that the right to bear arms is why we get to say what we want. Pretty sure shooting each other is a violation of the TB rules :P
Anyway, OP, maybe you need to relax and look at what people actually said to that other poster. No one was rude. The worst they did was point out that her post was redundant. I'm a FTM and a regular poster of dumb/random FTM stuff and I love it here. I feel like those that get so easily offended are reading way too much into the responses. No one actually cares that much... the site is just for fun.

Darling, I have been on these forums for 5yrs. I am still in contact with a bunch of ladies from when I had my first kid in 2010 as well as ladies from my second kid in 2012. I have been fortunate enough to actually meet some of these wonderful ladies IRL. I have shared stuff with them that I don't even share with my family and IRL friends. I seriously don't think I would have made it through my first pregnancy with my sanity without their help and support.
I have seen ladies on here rally together and do some AMAZING things for people that need it. Like send hundreds of cards and gifts, raise thousands of dollars, and of course send millions of T&P's to help someone they will more than likely never meet.
Yes there will be cliques, snark, and some rude comments. It's human nature, it just happens. What I think you are missing about this "app" as you call it, is that you will get support when you actually give support.
ETA: Oops. Posted too soon.
Also if you lurk and learn the dynamic of these boards, you would quickly learn to look through some of the snark and actually see the advice these wonderful ladies are giving you whether it be how these boards work, how to navigate these boards better, or the actual answers to your questions.

I think her real issue might be reading comprehension...

alissendis, I was worried no one was going to reply to this gem. Yes, the second amendment give us the right to bear arms (as opposed to the right to bare arms or arm bears, or posting our thoughts on an open website).
@cambricalvin - I am so sorry. I had no idea that this was YOUR board.
Now that I know, I should tell you - you should really clean up the place. So many nasty meanies destroying all of the rainbows and unicorns for all the newbies and sensitive posters. It has caused such a butt-hurt epidemic that CVSs from coast to coast are reporting donut pillow shortages. You should start praying for our husbands and children post-haste. And keep posting your rules for how we are to respond to other posts. We would be so lost without you, our fearless leader.

Also, I have an announcement: after craving Olive Garden for 2 weeks, I am finally going there tonight with my mom since DH is having a boys' night. I AM GOING TO WRECK SOME SOUP, SALAD AND BREAD STICKS.
You ladies are downright rotten sometimes. How dare you ever think to offer a different and non-sugar-coated perspective! How dare you link to other threads and point out internet forum etiquette so that future Bumpers aren't reading & answering the same questions 60 times a week like we have been doing over and over again! And seriously, ladies... TB is for serious replies only. Humor has no place here.
Re: stop being nasty!!!!
I think I just fell in love with you! I was just thinking the same thing lol

I have to admit that my edit on my comment was to fix "bare arms" to bear arms. Pregnancy brain had me looking at it for way too long.
