Too soon for "Ticker Change _____" posts?

LunaBug924

I know our board is still pretty young, as we have tons of new intros each day. Congrats to all! Just wondering if/when you gals might want to start the Ticker Change (insert the day of the week your ticker changes to a new week) check-ins. I've seen them on other BMB boards and I think it'll be a great way to GTK people, not to mention will help cut down on the symptoms posts since we can include that in the check-ins. 

Just something to think about for now I guess. I'm throwing my hand up to run the Saturday thread. Any thoughts?

We only do ONE of these weekly, right?
Usually Wednesday is Hump Day, Thursday is UO, Friday is Confessions.
Obviously these can change, but it's what is most common.

One for each day, is overkill, IMO.

Some of us have worked really hard for a long time to make it here.  I don't think it is overkill to let each day have it's own ticker change post.  I think every pregnancy is special and a daily post would help honor that.

2ismymax this is different from what you are talking about.  And not overkill IMO.  I'm a Friday, but I'm planning on doing a PAIF check in, so I don't really want to commit to doing the ticker change check in as well.

I'm a Tuesday changeling... If all goes well this weekend, I'll volunteer.

I'm a Wednesday changeling. If 2nd betas come back ok on Tuesday I can do Wednesday if no one else wants to do it.

Ticker Change threads are threads you check in on the day your ticker changes to a new week.  So if your ticker went from 3w6d to 4w today, then today (Saturday) would be your ticker change day.  You would check-in every Saturday (or whatever actual day your ticker changes) with other ladies who have the same ticker change day.  You talk about symptoms, appointments, how far along you are, etc.  

Once the board really starts to pick up, these check-in's will help cut down on a million morning sickness, cramps, bloating posts. It also gives us a chance to get to know each other and to be able to give/receive support. 

Hope this makes sense.  So @2ismymax, your ticker change check-in day would be Fridays and @savannah_girl yours would be today.   

Thank you for clarifying this @mattsgirl2004. Sorry thing was kind of a P&R this morning. Glad to know you ladies are on board!

I think I change on Monday. I can't see my ticker on mobile. Am I right? Where's all the Monday ladies?

I'm sorry you took my comment to this level.  I am very much aware of the sensitive nature of some of your histories.  I was not being down right cruel or mean.

Since I am clearly odd man out, daily ticker posts, it is.
