    I'm fairly new to the Bump, only started lurking around TTGP during my 2ww, and since it was a positive, came straight here in October. That being said, I have really enjoyed this board and the "mean girls." I find the snark entertaining, love the gifs, and am really really sick of repetitive symptom/am I showing/I feel the baby posts. 


    I'm a FTM, and aside from being excited, I'm also very nervous. However, I don't feel the need to make a new post for every single thing I'm feeling. As you can see, I've only started 4 posts, and one wasn't even on this board. I've also started reading a pregnancy book (got through the 1st trimester section), so my most basic questions have been answered. 

    So what's the point of this post? To show that not all the non-vocal members of the community agree with the OP's thought process. I'm really hoping this dies down in the 2nd trimester.
    Nervous FTM here too, I also moved here in October!:)

    The one thing I got out of ANOTHER thread like this is the realization that I am also somewhat creeped out by sloths, but I enjoyed the bowl cut one. Haha! Andplusalso...bingo card instructions! Much appreciated. What do we win?

    I couldn't agree more! I'm Shocked at how ppl act and respond on here. It's very mean and totally uncalled for. If you don't have anything helpful or kind to contribute to the person asking a question, or a post bugs you, why respond? Just move on!
    Just reading all these responses is a perfect example. The meanies have come right out of the woodwork! Feel sorry for the ppl who actually have to live with them! Gheesh!

    Have you read anything anywhere on this forum? I think you managed to fill some bingo cards with one post! Not bad for the 2nd time ever posting in this BMB!

    Interrupting the sloth-fest because I can't stop laughing.  The meanies are coming out of the woodwork?  Muffin, the people who are here day in and day out posting their advice, well-wishes, sympathy, encouragement, love, and yes SUPPORT, are the very people you are calling mean.  We are front and center for all to see, no woodwork in sight.

    You know who's coming out of the woodwork?  You, the handful of random generic-avatar non-posting whiners like yourself who have offered NOTHING TO ANYONE HERE.  Your post history consisting of three posts about deli meats/Taco Bell + your one whining post here speaks for itself.  

    To the OP and all the gaggle of generic randoms who clicked the love-tit button in support of her nonsense, I say, LOOK INWARD.  Do you really think you have standing to comment on the tone of the board when you contribute NOTHING?   Here's a novel idea.  Offer some of that oh-so-coveted support/advice to someone once in a while.  Get to know some people here.  

    Step away from your beloved "app" and log-on to the web site once in a while so you can see the siggies of the regulars here, with their pictures of little ones, histories, other glimpses into the lives of the people you are trying to set on blast here.  

    And also, get off your fucking high horse.  Nothing's going to change around here, except likely we're all going to start looking forward to the attention-whore whining posts because it gives all us meanie-heads a chance to get together and gif party.  Bonding at its finest!

    May the sloth-loving continue...

    Muffin, the people who are here day in and day out posting their advice

    Love the sloth gif! But I'm now craving a muffin.. Would I be a bad girlfriend if I sent my darling partner out to get me a muffin at 11PM at night.. Hmm :)

    At least we have the sympathy of other boards for all the BSC that happens here!

    I've been part of the knot/the nest for 9 years, since before there was a "the bump"  I've been part of the bump for 4 years.  It is exactly the same now as it has always been.  I call BS on the fact that there is any more criticism or bitchiness now.
    Yeah this. I actually find the majority of ladies over here MUCH nicer than when I was pregnant with DD back in 2011. And WAY nicer than the bitchachchos on the knot. And I've received the brunt of some nasty comments on here.

    seriously, can we get a mean girls badge? or like a weekly check-in or something?

    I like the "mean" girls. Also, ditto the sentiment that the bump has gotten much tamer. I was here with DS and if you want to talk about bullying, holy fucking cow you have no idea. When multiple users start harassing you to the point you have to change your email address AFTER your account is deleted, then we can talk about bullying. What happens here is snark, honesty, and support. Sometimes real support and friendship includes hearing things that aren't rainbows and sunshine. 

    Also, @Schnurette, I misread your "bitchachachos" as "bitch nachos" and now I want nachos. 
    Ditto to the "mean" girls...I don't know in particular exactly who is considered in the "mean girls club", as it seems to change depending on who gets offended, but I think that whenever someone gives some push back it's usually informative and in good fun...and almost always hilarious to me. 

    I too read "bitchachachos" as "bitch nachos" and texted my hubby to get stuff to make them tonight. I will bring the "bitch", he can bring the nachos.

    I had nachos for lunch.

    On an unrelated note: I just found out that a police chase just happened down the street and ended with the car on the run crashing into the Starbucks I stop at every morning. Possible fatality. =/

    I love this.  Way too many mean moms out there.  This site is for moms to support moms, but apparently some have too much free time on their hands and use it to bully! Glad to see I am not the only one who feels this way!

    Maybe I'm having a glitch but all I read was "Wah, wah, wah,....me, me, me"
    I KNEW she was going to pop up here after she deleted her spammy post and re-titled it! I'd be lying if I said I didn't scroll the list seeing if this was showing with new posts. I was not disappointed.

    Ugh I wish it hadn't done a pop up to tell me there was a comment because now I want nachos too lol. Fuuuuuudge.

    Also, bitch nachos could be the name of the mean girls club lol. It gets across the mean girl pride, and incorporates food.
    I want some bitch nachos now too. Why do I crave everything I read? 
    Drrrooolll....Nachossssssss
    Dammit guys. I'm still at work. How am I supposed to get nachos right now?? We'd better have chips at home.
