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.
Re: stop being nasty!!!!
I think I just fell in love with you! I was just thinking the same thing lol
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.

Yay! Drama! My Saturday night is sadly slow. This should help things right along.
Going to refill my bowl of ice cream. Need more calcium, I'm sure.

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.
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.

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.

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.
