What are your Bump habits?

I find that while I am in the 2ww I lurk over on 1st Tri A LOT, because I just know that I will be joining them!!  But immediately after I get my period or a BFN, I don't even like to see it listed as a board, and I stay as far away as I possibly can! 

What do you ladies do?

I look for the drama. The drama on my home board has been lacking lately (12-24). P&CE is good on finding the drama so I go over there to see if there are any links. Baby Names is a constant source of LOLz, too.

I pretty much just hang out here and on my local board.  Every now and then I lurk on Toddlers 24+.  I don't think I'll post on the tri boards here after I get pregnant, so I'm not tempted to lurk there.  I'll probably join a "due date club" over at mothering.com whenever I get pregnant though.

Well, this our first cycle, so I haven't even ventured to any other board yet. I can't fathom what 1st trimester is like, so I'll probably wait for a bfp before I even lurk... I think I'm too superstitious.

I really just stick to this board right now . . . I mostly lurk and occaisionally post my own things. I am sure once I eventually get that BFP (which I have to have faith I will) I will venture out to other boards. However, I am afraid to jinx myself.

It is similar to when I was ready to get engaged but he hadn't popped the question yet I wouldnt really look @ bridal magazines or come on the knot.com

I am not sure I can take it again, either. It is so hard to not say "just wait" when they are talking about how their baby will STTN at 3 days old and they will start solids at 2 weeks because their mom did and you spoil a baby by holding it too much. I can't take it. I also hated when people said "just wait" while I was pregnant, so it might be best to stay away.

I only post on this board on the Bump. I'm a regular on BNOTB and I switch between the two.

I really only look at this board and sometimes lurk on TTTC. I peeked in at 1stTri once and it just hurt too much to read the posts so I stay away now.

What is BNOTB?

I usually just stick around here. I may venture over to the birth month boards to see how the ladies are doing, but that's it.

I'm with you.  I have 12-24 up most days but am finding this board much nicer to play on!  The drama on there seems forced lately.

I will go to first try around 9DPO and compare my chart to their BFP. Torture I tell you, torture.

I do this too.  I have GOT to quit!

Babies Not On The Brain. It's over on the nest. I stated posting over there when it first start about 2 years ago.

I bump on the name board a lot. I lurk on the tri boards a lot. Especially 2nd tri.

I mostly hang out here and Baby Names, but I also lurk a lot on TTTC because I miss a bunch of those ladies.  I lurk and post very infrequently on TTCAL.

I pretty much just kick around on this board and when it's slow, i make my way to the baby name board for tons of amusement. When I'm feeling tortured, I go onto 1st Tri and ponder how so many of them got KU by 'accident'.

I'm a huge lurker. I have much of a poster all because I'm pretty shy unless I know you, although I'm very proud of myself for posting so much the last couple of days. I work in a very slow office so it is easy for me to keep up through the day. When I go home though I usually don't get on, so in the morning I'll skim through the posts from the night before. I lurk on here, my local knot board since thats where I started, and some other nest boards.

I'm so nosy! I post on here, obviously, but I lurk on 1st tri, attachment parenting, breastfeeding, nurseries & baby gear, TTTC, and for some major drama, single parents. That place gets nuts!!

ecleptic

I lurk here and TTTC for the most part although I don't have a lot of useful stuff to post on TTTC because we haven't had our first RE appt yet (and may not for a couple months- insurance snafu). It helps to spend some forum time around people who've been trying as long or longer than I have and see what various treatment cycles might be like.

I also tend to post during the late shift- 9pm central to midnight or 1am long after most girls have gone to bed.

I like to hit baby names when I want to feel useful- I'll go through and hit every clicky poll. I go to first tri and my due birth month (or the one before if, like this cycle, my due birth month board isn't active yet) during the 2ww and tend to avoid them pre-o.... and I spent time lurking on Nurseries pretty much all the time but it isn't as active as my home boards.

I stick to this board unless I hear about drama on another. Then i'll go where ever. I just can't help myself!
