It seems so early for all the rude talk. I don't recall reading anything that was even close to snarky yet. We are all still high on the fact that we are actually pregnant.
I agree with PP's that The Bump is a tell it like it is place. When support is needed it will definitely be received but no one is going to hold your hand and hair pat everything you say.
I would never think ppl would hold my hand hair or anything! I have 2 kids I have a husband to do that I just don't get why ppl opinion indifferent or not needs to be attacked if all they are on here for is extra support!! This isn't life for me so its not that this is my only support but if u go back u will see where it started n I'm only being straight forward since u all say its a straight forward board! Why be upset when I'm stating what I feel??? As someone said "tough love" well I'm giving that! As soon as some one say something its "u can leave" n that's snarly when all the person was doing is stating how ever she may feel!! Fair is fair Everyone is entitled to their opinion that's fine but telling someone they shouldn't be here like who are u??? I'm respectful things I don't care for I leave alone but attack is where I feel like ur coming for me so I'm coming back for u! N how I chose to type its my way I abbreviate things its called short hand typing!! Ppl want to judge but can't take it back I'm rude n whatever but as I said I'm different n can't fall in line with ppl attacking if that's ur lane fine I dance to my own beat I keep it cute n nice until u turn me the wrong way!
As I stated no bitch can kill my vibe n several seats is waiting for anyone who wants to!! I'm not going to leave I'm always going to remain who I am dont like it u can always leave or sit down with the other grumpy ppl cuz I'm lmaaaooo at all of the ridiculous quotes like the one stated by u! Ty boo boo!!
Peachy. You're welcome to stay, just realize you may not like how straightforward us "bitches" are. I'm also not sure how my quote was ridiculous, I was trying to explain how the board works and how it may not be to your liking.
Well u dont make up for everyone!! Some of the women have been really Nice n those are the ppl I look forward to knowing on here while I'm pregnant not the completely angry ppl! Who's running the forum?? Mean chicks?? This isn't HS!! Maybe ur a regular here but some ppl just want to share and enjoy hearing others! Like really we are all pregnant n sharing! If I don't like what I see I scroll pass it not come at ppl!! I'm just saying keep it cute! If ur nice on the inside pregnancy won't be an excuse to be different! This is a forum for pregnant ppl not a group for hating! Judging n mean girls!! Grow the F up ppl can all share without being attack!!
Wys, you're not helping your case by calling out the people who called you out. I would just step away and call it a day, this is an argument that is going to happen a thousand more times between now and all of our due days.
Unpopular opinions are just that, unpopular. People get flamed in this thread all the time. It is what it is. Sorry that someone expressed THEIR opinion. You expressed yours that you don't like bitchy people. Thanks, we get it. This is the way the bump / the nest / the knot is. Anyone whose been around the block knows this and we're here because we can accept that fact. Everyone's going to get flamed some time...
Guess I'm not a girl who's "been around the block" still no excuse for it n no I'm not trying to help my case I'm simply expressing why I'm right n don't think accepting the fact that ppl can n will come on here taking whatever they maybe feeling out on others who are clearly in the same position! I don't follow suite I'm just different what others expect I won't! Many shared whatever about Obama! N other things Idc about that even if I don't agree but attacking others is lame! Ppl can all share without attack if anyone chose to except it that's fine! But if u come for me I'm coming for u as ppl stated its a straight forward board right??!! I'm VERY DIRECT N STRAIGHT FORWARD!!
Where did you get your degree in English?
The same place YOU received Yours!
Here's some snark - I'm blocking your ass because you sound like an ignorant hillbilly. Reading your posts makes my morning sickness worse. I guess you can call me "VERY DIRECT N STRAIGHT FORWARD!!"
I accept ur block thank u cuz I'm far fr a "hillbilly" sorry I can't be down with attacking others!! Enjoy ur day sweetie!!
I want to CD but only for the sole purpose of saving money. I am in no way trying to be a real "crunchy" mama.
I CD'd my first for 8 months, and as long as you have a washing machine in your house, it's really not so bad! The only reason I stopped was because at 8 months the childcare situation changed and we had to switch to disposables because of that. Bummer. I'd love to try cloth diapering with this one again!
@Wysbaby, if " This is a forum for pregnant ppl not a group for hating! Judging n mean girls!! Grow the F up ppl can all share without being attack!!"
If we can share without being "attack" why are you already calling people bitches and mean girls and telling us to "grow the F up"? For you to state that it's not a group for hating, you're sure throwing an awful lot of hate around.
Actually I'm not how others chose to speak n express themselves is entirely up to them! I never directly called anyone a bitch! As u can tell by now if that's who I am I would've done so DIRECTLY TO THE PERSON! I don't dont get how ppl really think its acceptable to be so nasty to others! If u or anyone don't want anyone being nasty dont do it to others! That's just me I can't accept that its cool to attack ppl on here! If that's what everyone is expecting it then ok I just can't! I'm a VERY loving person that's clear about where I Stand on things! What should be supportive board isn't! No matter how many times u "been around the block" it don't give u the right to be nasty to others!! It seem like some just join this site to be nasty to others! No one is asking for roses sunshine! But I don't Believe in this world that IT HAS TO BE NASTINESS WITH OTHERS! Ppl can share respectfully without being attack!!
I have a few uo's. ladies, I don't understand the hype about the bachelorette. I just don't.
Secondly, please you are not fat! I really don't want to hear that for the next 8 months...sorry
Third, I wish everyone could be supportive and less bitchy. If you don't have anything nice to say keep it to yourself. We're all pregnany and hormonal. There's no need to get anyone worked up
I agree!! Ppl are using pregnancy to be even more bigger bitches!! I'm not saying u can't complain but damn this has been done for years now women have been giving birth for centuries!!! There's nasty coming fr so many ppl I say if ur nasty dont be mad when what ur carrying comes out to be just as nasty!! I think ppl come here for support n ppl that understand what they are feeling not to be judged n be bitched at if I don't agree with someone I keel scrolling cuz I'm too bless to even be bothered!! Men could be on a forum n be good with each other but women are ridiculous to me I always thought of being pregnant as a blessing n a joy no matter what!! Its like ppl come on here angry n mean ready to kill another pregnant woman vibe!!! But I'm the wrong one cuz no one can kill my vibe!! I'm Bless Favored n loving this journey!! Have several seats all u miserable ppl!! Go somewhere with that mess!!! (I'm just saying! Keep it cute like ur face! That's how I live outside cute n inside even cuter! I love my life! Don't attack others for being who they want to be! Don't judge! Just share respectfully!!
Well bless your heart.

Awesome prophetic fortune cookie: Love is a present that can be given every single day you live
I seriously side eye people who try to use pregnancy to get out of doing there job. Unless you are high risk or are put on restrictions by your provider. Your pregnant, not sick. I worked 12 hour shifts on my feet until I delivered last go around, so when people have a desk job and want a note to get out of work I have no sympathy. This goes double in the beginning of pregnancy..
I used plenty of excuses to get out of my job without a doctor's note and I wasn't high risk. My circumstance is a little different. I have job where I'm at my desk and in the field. I refuse to do my normals tasks that require me to go into buildings with mold, lead, asbestos, contaminated materials. Sure my company offers the proper protective equipment but its still not worth the risk to me.
Also, I have a friend who was so sick she was getting dehydrated and needed to get a few IVs of fluid pumped in her. She didn't seem any sicker than me yet she was missing a ton of work but never got a doctors note. Every pregnancy and the way a women reacts to the hormones is so different. It's kind of a blanket statement to say women shouldn't miss work and should just deal with it.
I entirely get where you are coming from. I leave the room if they do an x-ray on the floor even though I could wear a lead apron for protection to avoid that risk.
My sister-in-law was also hospitalized multiple times with hyperemesis with both pregnancies.
The situations I refer to are people who are entirely healthy and don't think they should have to sweep a floor or work normal non-hazardous jobs just because they are pregnant.
I guess I am naive enough to think those people don't exist. I worked until 41 weeks, got off work at 4, went into the hospital at 6, working 50 hours a week in the August heat. I am blessed to have had such a easy pregnancy, most of it was looking at my glass half full though, sure it hurts to walk and you can't sleep at night, you are growing a human, what did you expect?

Yep!! Or they turn out...well, they turn out. I used to work as a jail nurse, so I'm thinking of the more extreme cases (not the moms that used a zit cream here or there!).
I relate to this one, if you look at my search history it's nothing but "is ______ safe for pregnancy." Basically making myself crazy over it. I have rosacea (was diagnosed at 24, unfair) and only been off meds a couple weeks and skin is already a mess. Just trying to think "this will be worth it!" Over and over.
My UO; I am not excited about a little baby, or little kids; I am excited to have teenagers/young adults. I'm sure I will enjoy the stages, but I want to get to know the little person I made.
I feel exactly the same way. When I say that everyone looks at me like I'm crazy.
I'm the exact opposite. I can't wait to have a baby. I'm just hoping that I love them enough that I won't disown/beat them when they are teenagers.
Me, too, and I have a teenager. I am saved sometimes by the fact that I see the baby she was in addition to the young woman she is becoming.
I think people on the "Birth Month" boards tend to be more respectful of one another than the "Tri" boards because the "Birth Month" boards tends to be a smaller group. That being said, I personally haven't experienced anyone being rude or bitchy to me. One thing to remember is some of us are extra sensitive right now, some of us are extra bitchy right now, but all of us are extra hormonal right now. A little kindness goes a long way. But at the end of the day we are all strangers. It's not like we're meeting up for play dates. So what does a strangers' opinion of you really matter anyway? To me, not much. I know who I am :x
UO: I absolutely hate the words bitch, bitchy, bitches, bitching. I tend to hang out in feminist spaces so seeing women refer to each other as bitches gives me hives.
Also, failing to type very difficult words like "you", "people" and "and".
Maybe YOU SHOULD GET A CREAM FOR THOSE HIVES!!
Now who is being the hater? Way to act like a bitch and contradict yourself.

You can't seriously think she has real hives. Either you have no sense of sarcasm or you were being snarky larky.

Be nice to me n I'll be nice to u pumpkin!! its up to anyone how they would like to be treated I treat people how they treat me! Thats not "contradiction" its called being fair!

Get with it cuz then maybe u will understand ur teen when their older!! We are all strangers! It can't be that hard to be nice! Now can it???!!!

Anyone who thinks the snark or "bitchiness" on here is bad now, should have been around 5 years ago when I was pregnant.
Well I'm so happy I wasn't because I wouldn't be the girl that joined the team! I don't care for it n I would've said something then! People just need to learn you treat people the same way you want to be treated! That's all!! Its pregnancy board not an attack board!! I wonder if some of these ladies would attack others in person the way they do on here! Smh!

Wow I step away for an hour and I come back to this drama filled but might I add juicy trend.. Everyone back off of Wysbaby. OMG! If you go back and read this whole OU book she was just trying to state everyone is entitled to their opinion, example demo doll stated she dislikes Obama, and after I wrote my OU I agreed with someone who says they love Obama. Therefore we have different feelings on Obama, who cares? I'm not about to start bashing Demo Doll because of our difference of opinion.. What she's was trying to say is she hates when someone attacks because we have different opinions. And I AGREE, I do too!
Btw she can write/post however she wants on here just like everyone can state whatever opinion they want.
