Introducing myself

duevalentines14th

Hey everyone, 
I’m new this and thought I’d finally introduce myself. Im 22 and me and my partner are expecting our first Bub 14th Feb. 
First trimester was pretty good, didn’t get too sick just slept a lot. I’m now 18 weeks and just starting to feel bub moving 😍 can’t wait to be a mum.

Welcome and congratulations! I see you joined three days ago, so you had a few days before you were allowed to post. Those days are meant for lurking and reading rules and info (see picture below, notice the red underline), which I assume you didn't do since you created this post. One-off intro posts like this one clogs up the board if everybody does it. There's an entire thread dedicated to introductions (orange arrow below)! 



If you plan to stick around, could you please also update your username? There's a guide on how to do so in the board organization thread. If you keep your knottie-username, nobody will be able to tag you or know who you are from the million other knotties.

I did read the rules and read around before assuming I didn’t.  
I was in that group and I thought I was posting in there, but it created a whole new group, which I can’t figure out how to delete.

Strange! Maybe try posting there again?

You can't delete this one btw, once it's created it's permanent. We'll just have to stop replying, eventually it'll get pushed down the list by other topics.

Just here for the QFP.

What is that meant to mean? @Venessa88

People around the bump tend to QFP around here when a “drive-by” posts something because there tends to be a deletion of info. It gets really confusing for people who missed the convo. That’s all that is.

She she did go change her screen name and post in the introductions thread after it was brought up.

Yes, like I explained above I was trying to post in the correct group to begin with and obviously stuffed it up. @madreofdragons

To be fair, the “new discussions” button is at the top of every thread and pulls you out of replies. I did that once on accident in an old board

@duevalentines14th Welcome and I hope you stick around and get to know the group.  My post was not meant to be rude. I was in a rush and a lot of times these types of posts are by drive by posters who end up not liking the replies they get and delete the original post. The quote keeps the original post somewheres. 

As others have mentioned you can't completely delete the post but no worries about it. You definitely seem to be making an effort to learn the board culture and that's great! Glad you are sticking around!
