Due date won't erase on here!!! :*(

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

I feel so upset about the miscarriage and I hate thinking about how far along I would be if I was still pregnant-- so it's like a knife in the heart *every* time I log on and see that time-line that the Bump created when I entered my due date a few wks ago!

I have tried repeatedly to change it by following the specific directions about this. I went to my account and edited the due date and it keeps saying the changes have been saved. Initially, it does look that way, but everytime I come on here again, that f*cking time-line is back! This has made it very hard for me to even come on this website (which can be hard already, having to click past the main page and all the baby discussion boards), because it is the first thing I see when I come on the site.

I will create a new account if I have to, but this seems like such a small and easy change (and obviously a feature that SHOULD work, considering how common m/c is). What the hell is up with the Bump? I can't even find an admin to contact to help fix this problem! Have the rest of you been able to erase your EDD and timeline? This is so upsetting! Please help if you can... Thanks. :)

    I wish I could help, but I'm having the same problem for the second time. I created a new account the last time. I don't really want to do that again. Good luck finding a solution and please let me know if you do!

    My heart is with you during this difficult time. Hugs!

    Send an email to community@thebump.com and ask them to remove it.  Until they do just bookmark the boards you read/post on to bypass that awful reminder.  Hope that helps, ((hugs))

    Sig/ticker warning










    I don't go to any of the bump/nest homepages - I have the direct link to one board bookmarked and from there navigate using the links at the left-hand side of the page.  Maybe you can try that until the glitch is fixed.

    The direct link to this board is:

    I had that problem as well, except not only did I have it on my homepage but my account locked up and I couldn't delete my ticker or my BMB badge from my siggy, so I just created a new account with a similar SN so people still "know" me. I'm sorry for your loss!

    Sorry about your loss, what I did was move the month, day and year of the due day.

     Hope that help!

    it looks like the other ladies have this covered, but mine actually comes and goes. Some days it says TTC other it defaults to my baby I lost. I think it has something to do with a cookie clean up or something. I agree with bookmarking the page and avoid it all together. hugs.

    My heart is as open as the sky.

    You can email thebump and see if they can fix it. I emailed them and they said there is some error that isn't allowing it to change right now.  They did say they can delete my account and then I could re-register.

    For now, I put I was due in like 2015.  So, it just says my kids birthday is in 2498349287 days, and it doesn't remind me of how pregnant I should be.

    I had the same issue, and it broke my heart every time I logged in. Try choosing "Trying to Concieve", and make your due date ?/?/2015, then save your changes..  It seemed to work for me.

     Best of luck--

    I e-mailed them at the previous e-mail address listed.  They sent a very kind response and did somewhat fix my timeline.  Mine now reads 0 years old.  Still much better then seeing how many weeks I could have been.  Now if I can get my e-mail off of all the list I somehow wound up on...

    Thanks for all the helpful tips-- I did send a message to the email one of you gave and I got a nice (and apologetic) reply today. They also changed my profile so that it says 0 weeks. This tiny change makes it so much easier to come on here now-- I know it's a small thing, but it really makes me feel a little better not having to see that old timeline.
