I lurk on AP and natural birth. I don't post on them because, well, sometimes the ultra-crunchy moms turn me off. Also, I FF and I had a c-section and I don't feel guilty about either.
1,2&3 tri (answer questions when I know the answer)
Adoption (It was an option for us in early pregnancy and now I love following the ladies stories)
Single parenting (Idk why really I just do, now I am hooked on those ladies stories also)
Parenting and photography (I don't post there because on parenting a lot of the women have older kids and I don't post on photography because I am nowhere near as talented or educated in photography as the other women)

Because I've followed some of the women's stories for years so I celebrate and mourn with them. Other times it's because of the train wrecks...I can't look away.

ETA: I don't know why I don't post. I guess because I don't think I'd fit in. There's a lot I don't agree with and it's better if I stay out of it.
I followed the boards that corresponded to my pregnancy (1st tri, 2nd...., November 2010) and now I'm here on 0-3. I dont post because most of my questions (like what's normal, how to cure hiccups) are already posted by someone else so I just look to see what the answers are. I come on at least once a day.

I also lurk those boards and had a c-section but I EBF.
I lurk/post on Breastfeeding alot but it's the same damn questions over and over so I'm back to lurking and only reading 1 out of every 10 posts.
Francesca Pearl is here! Josephine Hope is almost 3!

1st tri and 2u2. I miss the excitement of pregnancy so I go to see other girls being excited. I lurk on 2u2 because I'm going back and forth on the idea of being there one day.
Here, also on Swap spot (posted for the first time there today! and got a good trade!) Cloth diapering. I am interested but don't know enough to start it yet. I look through the other boards occasionally.
I also spend time on the nest looking at the craft board and what's cooking.
I don't lurk because I usually think I will offend someone. I don't like to be "not liked"

EFF - I like to get ideas and inspiration but I don't feel I'm anywhere near EFF enough to post.
BF - I may post there once in a while, but usually I go there and search for things I know have already been answered
CD - I love learning about what works/doesn't for people and advice.
Austin board - I feel like everybody there is so close to each other and like I don't belong. So instead of being like, "Oh hai! Can we be friends?!" I just lurk.
MM - I'm SO not MM but I try to get ideas
D&R - I used to post on there when I first started on the nest. Now all my extra money goes to the baby. No time or money for a pretty house. Le sigh.
Looks like I'm quite the lurker, eh?

I lurk a lot too... I lurk on all the baby boards up to 12-24 (I get bored while bfing!), nurseries, baby names I go on and post when I'm bored, and sometimes the tri boards when it's really slow.
Re: What boards do you lurk on?
I pretty much just lurk, period. But I like to just watch on a few:
Baby Showers--because there are some seriously sassy mamas who always know just how to flame an idiot without my help.
AP--because I have nothing to contribute, but like to be inspired by them.
EFF--because they intimidate me!

This one
I don't post because I'm not quite there yet.
3-6 to see whats coming up next in DD life.
3rd Tri just to reminisce of those times.
1st Tri to get a good laugh about how paranoid we all were back then about hot dogs and cheese!

I lurk on my local board. I don't post because any questions I have seem more relevant to Nov or 0-3.
I'm going to have to start lurking on 3-6, though, since so many girls left us today!
Single parents.
I lurk because although I'm not really a "single" parent, I'm a divorced parent but don't really feel like I would be welcome to post there.
