Thank you..I saw her over there but didn't have the gumption to say anything..so thank you..seems her own board flamed her for us but she did apologize. So we all make mistakes.

Thank you for taking this to heart and calling her out for it. I saw it this am, but did not have time to take it to the Bump managers until this evening. I am truly thankful for your help in taking this matter into your own hands and putting the pressure on to have her delete the OP. I can't be here all the time, so the help is greatly appreciated. That post was completely inappropriate. Nice work tracking her down.
I think it's a bit harsh to bash someone for testing her siggy. So she did it on this board....she posted siggy test. So why look? I know you don't even need to do it...just look at an old post. She's PG and she did it late and whatever she posted to the wrong board. Is it really that big of a deal? Some of us having TTC have children. Does that mean we can post pics or bumps? Sorry...AF is here and I'm a bit hormonal. I just see from your link that the girl, according to her board, is very nice. I dont think calling her out was needed.
You can have a bump post here. If you are TTC over 35 and have a bump to show. We welcome that. But for someone who does not post here to come over and borrow this board to test her siggy because she felt she could not do that on her regular boards is a bit much. There are too many people here with TTTC to have someone playing around and posting a pg photo for kicks and giggles to see if it works right. We are not here as a test your siggy board, and the pic could be deemed as rubbing salt in a wound. I completely agree with all of the pps that the post, in general, was very inappropriate for this board. All posts of that nature will be taken to Bump management for deletion. We don't want that kind of drama here.
I agree with Have2run...it is not the siggy test it is the fact that she did it here.
We were not rude Amy just posted asking why she thought that was ok and her board did the rest. We were all relatively civil about the whole thing. It was late night. She should have tested on the 2nd tri board. There no one would have cared that is where she spends her time and they know her.

I guess I just feel it seemed like an innocent mistake. I've made the mistake posting on a differant board before. The girl is 20 weeks PG. Did we really need to bring stress onto her for this? Think about it. Being that we are all 35+ I thought we were a bit more mature about matters like this.
Well you know it did offend me. For 5 years I have put my heart into conceving a child and no one could feel the emotions that I have struggeld with for so long. It was not the fact she tested her siggy, it was the fact she tested her pregnant belly on a board where we are having problems conceiving.
Dose it make it ok to post a siggy of puppy mills on the Pet board or Meats on the vegaterian board.. you have to stop and think..
I guess at only 30 I can get away with being less mature..

I totally agree. I just don't think the girl's intention was to rub salt in the wound and post her bump for all TTTCer's to cry over. I think she posted to the wrong board. I've posted to the wrong board before. I just don't see why everyone got so mad at her. She made a mistake. I like my 35+ boards for the fact there is no drama. I just didn't see why everyone assumed she did it out of spite? Do you know the girl? If no you had no right to assume. And to compare what she did to posting about puppy mills on a pet board? That was just not nice.
I'm just a lurker, and perhaps I have not lurked quite long enough on this board to fully understand but, I thought this board was for women who are 35+ that are trying to conceive (hence the name TTC after 35). I'm confused about the continued reference to this being a board for women with TTTC. I understand that many women here are in fact having trouble but that is not the main intent of the board as I understand it to be.
This being the case, I don't see how anyone posting a bump pic or any pregnant pic is cold and heartless. Yes, she should have posted on her normal board. Yes, it was rude for her to do a drive-by siggy test here. But, the siggy itself was not rude, obnoxious, or hurtful in any way. It seems a little inappropriate and insensitive to say that no one is allowed to post pictures or be happy about their pregnancy because you are having TTTC.

Sorry Amye honey, but I think you are overreacting a bit.
It was in reference to Amye's last post. She said she had no problem with her posting the siggy test, it was the fact that it was a bump pic that offended her.

Re: Your welcome girls..
it's all good. Her post made me mad but when I saw how upset you grils got I felt I needed to step in. I was not mean.. but I got my point across.
Thank you!! I missed that all but I give you a ton of credit for tracking her down...and you were nice about it! If it would've been me, she would have gotten a lot worse!

Comparing puppy mills? Really? The bump involves things all baby related.
Ditto and well put.

It happens all the time. I pointed out to her that testing a sig is pointless on any board, and that she shouldn't have done it. No big deal.
She wasn't trying to start anything, she just wasn't thinking.
She apologized, whatever. Not sure it needs such a case made out of it.
Who said that? I don't think the point was about bump pics in general.
Sorry Amye honey, but I think you are overreacting a bit.
Ah. That's where the quote button helps
