s/o how you came to the bump & confession

Dee1028 · March 2010

I got flamed with my first post here, I did not lurk at all.

Confession: I almost make GP (TTGP) my home.

I am very glad that I yanked on my big girl panties, lurked some more and stuck around BOTB. I love you ladies!!!

LOL, what was your first post? I hope I was nice (if I didn't just ignore you), because I love you.

I was on theknot before then thenest, and then they created the bump and I got shuffled here. :P

Something along the lines of "it seems like everyone around me is pregnant but not me. Am I the only one who feels this way??"

I am extremely embarrassed about it now. LMAO

OMG, were you the one with babies stalking you?!

SweetPeanis · March 2010

I came here way back in 06 and my first post was a joking question is nesting was a sign of pregnancy. Apparently sarcasm doesn't traslate very well becuase I got flamed, started lurking and then became a fixture on BOTB.

My confession: I remember when sp started posting. I thought she was really super annoying. But now I luuuurve her. lots and lots.

No! I don't remember this either but it sounds fantastic.

That was all I posted, then I got flamed. I lurked here and on GP for a couple of weeks then I tried again.

I'm pretty sure I didn't flame you.

I never flame any of the newbies unless they really deserve it.

I made a joke about how we considered the dogs "practice kids" because we weren't sure if we were responsible enough yet. That did not go over well.

MrsShrek1028 · March 2010

i came here because my sister was on BOTB, then she moved to multiples eventually and i kind of just stuck around here. i was mostly a night poster for a long time.

I find that to be very funny. My kitty was my practice kid!

preppynewlywed · March 2010

I lurked for a few months on BOTB before I ever created a screen name and posted.

My first post was a response to some dumbarse who said her cycle was "totally regular."

I think I said "Bless your pretty little heart."

Blair immediately told me she loved me, because my first post was snarky. I started commenting regularly right after that...then my first question was if FF VIP was worth it.

ETA: I never posted on The Knot or The Nest. I just stumbled across The Bump one day and fell in love with BOTB.

danlexi04 · March 2010

Confession: My first post was on the Working Moms board. I titled it "The Great Work Debate" because, in my head, I was debating being a SAHM or a WM. This post did not go over well. Woops.

mrsadamc 05 · March 2010

My first post I got flammed too.

I don't remember the specifics but KDodge totally got on my case for being stupid and I was super embarassed for a few days.

But then I changed my s/n (my first one was my email address) and it's been good since.

wils0482 · March 2010

I lurked a little on the nest, then on BOTB. I don't remember what I first posted about. I'm kind of boring though, and don't post very much.

Stick out tongue

goofyteacher · March 2010

I had been on the knot and they sent me an email talking about the bump. So I checked it out and had a fabulous first, "How do you know your ready" post.

akalutts · March 2010

I arrived via the Knot. The first wedding magazine I got was a gift from DH and it was The Knot. I took one look at their boards and immediately wandered over to the Bump, as that was what was really on my mind

I don't remember if I got flamed on my first post or not, but I'm sure I did eventually. I was fairly intimidated to post at first because I'd never been on a board before. I think I mainly stuck to offering up Congratulations of BFPs for a few weeks so as to up my post count before really diving in. I remember being so pleased the day I passed 100 posts, lol!

ifwisheswerefishes · March 2010

I was on The Knot for our wedding (made things AMAZINGLY organized!)...then I wandered over to here and The Nest...mostly after our miscarriage.

My first post was due to an "odd" medical issue that my DH and I experienced on our honeymoon...I was majorly flamed!!! People honestly thought I made the whole thing up -- which I did not! I was VERY intimidated by this whole idea, but I've finally started warming up to this and am VERY MUCH enjoying getting to know all of you amazing chicas!!
