s/o birth month boards

There is a lady on my BMB that is asking about two different makes of strollers. Seriously?! She is just over 5w pregnant.

Also a lady who is asking us if we think she is pg by naming all of her symptoms.

Indifferent

You should tell the one lady that your initials are not E.P.T. lol At least the lady that was talking about the strollers isn't buying one right now. (I hope not anyway.)

HAHA! And here my eyeballs were about to freakin' roll out of my head, & I thought I was the only one feeling completely annoyed! Love your responses to both, btw...

Yes This.

There are some girls on my month board that I REALLY can't stand because of things like this. That's why I spend most of my time here (where I like everyone).

I have a hard time holding back when posts make me Hmm .

I'm 20 weeks and still refuse to look at strollers or anything else for that matter. But maybe I just have issues?! MIL keeps asking DH and I what stroller we want because she wants to get it for us, I keep telling her I will let her know when we find one. I'm thinking another month or two before I even go looking.

And for the one that wants to know if you think she is pregnant, tell her yes and shes carrying twins, one of each. And their names should be Michael and Michelle. YWIA! Stick out tongue

OMGZ lol thank you so much for posting this Vicky - I seriously thought it was just me, but I absolutely hate our birth month board! I hardly respond to anything because most of the posts just make my head want to explode!

I was seriously considering starting a super secret PgAL September 2011 Mamas board and inviting some of your ladies to join me there.

I absolutely love this board (PgAL) and find the wisdom from PgAL ladies in all stages of pregnancy to be wonderful, but would really love a place where we TTCAL grads and PgAL September 2011 Mamas could all connect/check-in and go through this together. Maybe I'm alone in that thought/feeling/wish/desire, but just thought I would throw it out there and see what you ladies think.

allybaby85 · January 2011

lol I saw both of them...I just decided to keep my mouth shut to be nice. I do like that one lady's crystal ball though!

Mrs.Albie · January 2011

Vicky, I too have a hard time keeping my mouth shut sometimes. We can take 'em on together.

Of course you would be Smile

I just threw something together quick with Google Groups (a usually pretty accessible site, for those of us with internet restrictions at work Stick out tongue ). All I need are e-mails to send out invites to join the group, then the rest is very similar to what we see on here (minus the cranium imploding questions of course ).

Anyone interested in joining the Super Secret PgAL September 2011 Mamas board just, PM me with your email address and I'll send out invites first thing in the a.m.

Oh Goodness! I found my birth month board especially obnoxious for a while. It's not so bad now that we are further along.

Bwahahaha, I loved your response.

Galena99 · January 2011

I think all of the responses were great (to the symptom woman). The only saving grace on my month board is that there are other pgals here that won't let those posts go uncommented on.

rjl07 · January 2011

I can't bring myself to post on the Sept board since I saw a few of these posts over the last couple of weeks. I would love to do the Google Group though. I'll send a PM in a minute.

JayandTay09 · January 2011

That board makes me crazy sometimes...There was one earlier today asking how she should tell the world...She is 5 wks...Oh for the love of pete!

There was a girl on my month board yesterday who was talking about how she's already stockpiling diapers... and she's only 7w. Geeeeze!

I'd like to join the PgAL Sept 2011 group, but I am embarrassed to admit that I have no idea how to PM anyone. The only time I've ever PM'd on The Bump is when someone PM'd me first. If someone would give me some pointers, I'd be most grateful. Big Smile

Definitely get a FFFC going and keep these things in mind. These people have no clue at all!

shanna82 · January 2011

Ugh, I know. I like the concept of the BMB, but I'm ready for no more BFP posts and get to the interesting stuff! It also makes me sad to see how naive most of them are.
