Its interesting that in all of the posts that have drama in it...
the same people are involved in the cattiness and b!tchiness. The same women calling out everyone...
gisa, cruel, mcoggins...rim...you know who you all are....
calm your hormones women!...
And just to let you know that I had been observing this board for awhile to see if I want to join...I will not! Like you all said, "if you dont like it, leave!" I choose to leave...
P.S. you were the "fatgirls" in highschool..and feel like you need to bully other women around...! See ya.. witches!
Re: drama in first tri
Wow...wtf was that all about? Seems like it could've been handled with private messages rather than furthering the problem of drama on the public board.
I can't stand people who claim to hate drama and then SEEK IT OUT at every turn.
Do you think you're the first to post and run something like this?
You're not. It won't make a difference. Sorry but get over it.
And to be totally honest some of the questions posted here really do deserve a bit of snark. I am never the one to dish it but someone has to.
These threads always go over well.
Baby Gaga may be right up your alley! Have fun!
So we should just let it go when you say that people who have had miscarriages or went through ivf shouldn't be on 1st tri because it is makes her scared and nervous? Yeah that makes tons of sense.
Nice try tinselya. Glad you don't have the balls to say this under your own name.
Wow, because this statement doesn't lump you in that bully group either. Way to take the high road!

This.
Nice how someone who wants to call others out for their "b!tchiness" is doing so by being a big b!tch. Bravo. You just became a hypocrite.
But you're leaving.....oh so sad.

As long as I'm living my baby you'll be.

A) Some of the posts on this board deserve the snark that they are given. Google is a wonderful tool...use it!
C) Like you said "if you don't like it, leave", and you did. So you coming back would be your own fault then, no? Red box with an X in it, top right hand corner, how about you use it?
AEs are so dumb anyways. Why create an AE??? Did you forget you were signed on anonymously to an internet board where no one knows/cares who you are??? If I'm not gonna say it under this SN, I'm not gonna say it period.
Be careful you might get lumped in with us mean fatties.
she's right...don't scare all the trolls away because you'll end up like a month board... all boring and crickets with echos of past pledges never to leave each other...sad...
I'd rather be lumped in with the "mean fatties" who know they are bishes and don't care than the dumb AEs who act like bishes but it's ok when they do it. I'm ok with b!tchiness, but I think these call outs are lame and AEs to be a b!tch is even more lame. At least when any of you get "b!tchy," you own up to it. You don't hide. And I agree with the b!tchiness anyways.
Seriously, this is the only board where everyone isn't so supportive. It wasn't like this when I was in my first trimester. Honestly, when ppl felt like I was asking a dumb question, yet I was being sincere, it kind of stung when ppl wrote mean things.
We come on this board in support of one another and it's not about being soft. Personally, my pregnancy was the reason I kind of "fell out" with my family. Not very many of my friends have ever been pregnant (I'm the first out of my close friends) and it was easy for me to turn to thebump message boards for questions about what was normal and what wasn't.
I think what the OP is trying to say isn't out of line. It's the honest truth. Some people do it to be funny and maybe it is the same people, but don't you think the tone needs to change? You may be intimidating others by what you post.
I'm sorry, not everyone has made it to their second child yet...Some of us don't know what to expect AT ALL. So instead of being "snarky", just don't say anything at all. I know it's a forum and you can post whatever you choose, but just try it. Geez.
THIS IS.....
bahahahahaha
blah blah come here for support, bleh blah just plain mean blah blah it's not funny blah blah mean fat girls
Do you know why OP wrote this? She posted that there should be two 1st tri boards; one for the "normal" pregnant people and one for people who have been through IVF and losses. They should have their own board because their stories are just too scary for our delicate sensibilities. She got flamed for saying it and then DD'd because she is too much a chicken to own up to what she did and say it was wrong. I called her out for the DD and told her to just own up to it and move on, but then she had to create an AE and post this stupid bs.
This is so true!
Cannonsmommy and TobleroneBar, I'm not even going to acknowledge the OP because well, she's ridiculous. But I just wanted to give you some major KUDOS on the Spinal Tap references. You guys rock!
OP, you can't spell worth a damn, your grammar is laughable and you have the nerve calling out other people? You need to be calling Hooked on Phonics.
I know it's unrealistic for everyone to be nice to everyone else, but I'm just saying, the snide remarks are more prevalent on the 1st trimester board. The only reason I even know about it, is because posters from other boards make reference to it.
I was just making a point that it's constant with this board. My close friend was going to sign up for this site and she texted me saying she didn't know how I was a part of this forum. I told her how helpful it was for me, but she didn't feel the same after reading some of the posts from the past week or so.
I respectfully disagree. There is some stuff that gets snark, but I'd say the majority of things don't. Of course all the snark will be pointed out and linked because people think it is funny.
kes487 - I understand your point. Is there snark, flaming, and differences of opinion? Yes there is, and always will be. We are on this board for a reason, we are all pregnant (well except for the ones that for some reason don't understand that they should POAS), and we are hormonal. If you are having a rough day, and you think that a comment from a complete stranger may in some way upset you, then stay away from the boards that day. For the most part, this board is informative and supportive, but it never hurts to have a little fun, some laughs, and a little drama to spice things up a little.
ugh. Don't let the door hit your a$$ on the way out....
If it's true what was said about having 2 1st tri boards, then this person should go elsewhere. The sad reality is that miscarriage and loss happen, but segregating based on that issue is silly. The women (myself included) that have been through a loss know a whole heck of a lot more about pregnancy than you can imagine. We obsess about it, because we've lost our baby(ies). We don't ever want to do anything to jeopardize our next pregnancy, so we read, blog, research, etc.
You should be thankful that we can be supportive when you cry about every little ache and pain. Instead, you act like a child and create an a/e to tell us off. Way mature! So glad you are going to be a parent
