Parenting

seriously too many boards on here...

wouldn't all the "getting pregnant" people fall into Babies on the brain or secondary IF or one of the 4 TTC boards??? 

Cant there just be a plain old over 35 board for parenting and pregnant combined or does it HAVE to be seperated by those who are just pregnant and those who are parents?

From now on, if you post about baby names on THIS board, I will sternly direct you to the baby name board..same with posts with pics of your nursery..there's a board for that....

Or, should we add more...what bump board would YOU like to see??

Mom's of 3+ kids...only for those who have 3 or more kids.

Terrible Twos...to discuss temper tantrums.

Carseats..for all the car seat talks/question.

Post due date...since there is a preemie board, I think there should be one for women who were pregnant after their due date.

part time working mom's---because not everyone fits neatly in SAHM or WOHM category.

What else??????

 

Re: seriously too many boards on here...

  • Yes, I work AT home F/T and I'm therefore a P/T SAHM and have a P/T mommy's helper .

    I would like a board just for that - there HAS to be more like me!!

  • They should have a PMS board.

  • I agree.  I even think the trimester boards and 0-6, 6-12 month boards are too much.  I came here when it was just one board-- Baby Talk.  I miss that.

    I'm a little tired today...was this snark directed at me?? if it is, cool....but next week is my pms week!!!  :)

  • For sure!

    They need, for example...

    SAHM Urban East Coast

    SAHM Country East Coast

    WOHM Urban East Coast

    WOHM Country East Coast

    SAHM Urban SouthEast

    etc...

    Really, there should only be 5 people able to post on each board -- MAX!

    LMAO NO! I'm just saying they should totally have one of those so girls can head on over there when they are crabby.

  • I agree that there are WAY too many boards, that was one of the things I liked about the nest-- everyone was together, no grouping off. I like talking to people that are not in the exact same situation as me, plus it kept the board pace up, different opinions on things, and different ideas. It's helpful dang it-stop grouping everyone off!!! There's "BOTB" and there's "parenting" that's all we need!!

    FWIW-- I think they will add a "pg under 20" board...since teen pg is so high.

  • make sure to add another board to complain about how slow all the spin-off boards are b/c there's hardly anyone on them!!
  • I agree, it's too much.
  • Seriously, I agree.  Way too many boards.  I'm all for not having to hear "Should I test, should I test again, how about now" 50 times a day, but there are a lot of things people in DIFFERENT situations can offer advice with. I'm in my first tri, so I have been over there sometimes, especially to hear people talking about what week this or that is happening, because I remember the previous PG's but not in great enough detail to remember weeks.  But it seems like sometimes they are all in the dark because they are all in their 1st tri,and not a lot are parents already.  When we were first on the babies on the brain board or whatever it was back then, it was like gold to have people who have already been there helping out.
