Ah!! I remember last year when the Nov 2010 Moms did this for us. I can't believe how fast that time went by. We should definitely carry on the tradition.
I also remember some of our posters not appreciating the advice, but I thought that was tacky. Maybe call it Congrats from 2011? And a sharing of our experiences. I guess some pregnant women hate advice!
ETA: Do we post a thread on our own board and then link it? Or do we start a thread on their board? Funny because Nov 2012 used to be our board...
Wow time is flying!! When March 12th rolls around I will have to throw myself a BFP anniversary party
I think at this point most advice falls on deaf ears or is forgotten - they will learn better from the shared experiences. If anything, my input would be heartfelt excitement, encouragement, and congratulations for the beginning of their precious babies' lives.

I just found the thread from the Nov 2010 moms. Maybe there was a different thread where they were flamed but this one seems to have been well received!

March 14th! I like that idea.
I think the advice would be forgotten too, but a congrats from nov 11 moms should be in order.
I think a Congrats post would be nice. I don't remember all the things that were said from the Nov '10 moms to us but I do remember them posting and I thought it was really sweet. When this happens can someone post on here so we all know and can go over and say congrats?
