FB friend requirements?

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

what requirements do you have before adding a bumpie/nestie to your FB?  I'm just curious if you guys screen people, if you add people that you talk to regularly, only ones that you've met IRL? 

I've only added 2 bumpies (hesitantly) and that's just been in the last few weeks.  One that was thinking of leaving the bump, so I added her so we could stay in touch and one that I email with pretty regularly.

    They are usually ones that I've met (or soon to meet) IRL, one is my long lost twin, and the others are just some ladies I have grown to like on here.

    I only have FB friends that I know/met IRL and I have never met any bumpies.

    I have one bump FB friend.  She was my labor buddy and we talked through email for a while and then added each other on FB.

    I only have two bump friends on there - neither of whom I have met IRL.  I've "known" both ladies for a long time though.  I have some friends from back from my knot days, but I've actually met all of them IRL (which makes them not BSC in my head ;-)). 

    I had decided to start adding people if they wanted - I have a "bump" group which limits the amount of personal info people can see... but the one person I added de-friended me fairly shortly after I added her.  I took that as a sign that my FB should stay private, which is fine with me :)

    Ummm A) This screams of creepy "I just want to be nosey really quick" and now I want to know who did that, and B) I would never de-friend you and one day, we will be IRL friends ;)

    I've either met them IRL or have talked to them on here A LOT. I only have 4 bumpies, 2 of which I've met.

    Nah, not so creepy.  I was out of town at the time - but I believe I read that she'd had some FB/bump drama of her own.  I can understand a de-friending in that situation.

    And duh, we will be IRL friends!

    I have five bump friends, I believe.  One I met IRL, the other four are super sweeties.  I trust them completely, even if that's foolish.

      exactly!  add to look at pics and personal info and then delete is shady.  ETA:  NM, just saw your response.

    I friend anyone on here that I have had several conversations with and I like. I don't have hoops that people have to jump through to become accepted. I guess it just isn't as big of a deal to me to try to keep people out.

    i only have 5 nesties friends on my fb account.

    nobody on the bump, i spend more time over there so it makes sense.

    but i don't think i would add someone unless i really, really "e-knew" them
