Just thought I should say...

kkten290 · February 2012

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

I'll be sure from now on, to keep my opinions and experiences to myself. This place is somewhere I felt that I could come and talk and not be judged or criticized unlike if I was to go and share with the people around me. But apparently, I was wrong.

ilovelife · February 2012

What happened? Last time I checked your post (earlier today), no one had said anything rude.

on_a_whim · February 2012

What happened?

amanda2424 · February 2012

I third that..what happened??

kkten290 · February 2012

ilovelife: I just checked it a couple minutes ago, and there were some very rude comments made after what we had said.

on_a_whim: I had made a post earlier venting about some crap that went down with me and my FI's mother. And there were just some really crappy posts made at the end dogging me and basically judging me when they have no idea what all HAS happened and happening.

hunter91011 · February 2012

I agree with you...I figure, if I don't have something positive or encouraging to say I don't reply at all. We are all hormonal and just looking for support.

brideandbreve · February 2012

I went to look at your post to see what went down and it looks like you did a DD. :

For the most part, I think most people try to be helpful with their responses, but there's always a couple of folks who like to be as blunt as possible. That's the unfortunate part of sharing online like this.

I hope you at least got some positive advice from people.

amanda2424 · February 2012

I remember commenting on your post...I'm sorry that someone/ppl made you feel worse. You sound so stressed out and I hope that you can find a way to relax, the stress is not good for you. Sometimes I think people forget that we all just need to vent sometimes and aren't neccessarilly asking for advice, just someone to listen. Sorry that someone made your day even worse, that sucks I hope you don't leave the board because there are a lot of great supportive ladies on here.

Here's to hoping you stay and that your situation gets resovled

I looked for that post before replying to this one but couldn't find it. Was it deleted?

I read your post this morning and I didn't say anything. It looked like you were venting and both sides were blowing things way out of proportion. They were only going off of what you shared.

I did not go back and read any of the comments. BUT I will tell you that no matter what was said, DD that post and then coming back to post a seperate post to complain about them is just asking to be flamed.

kkten290 · February 2012

Yes I just deleted the entire thread because I was so pissed and honestly really upset at the few people who had been nasty.

When I read people's posts, if I don't agree then I won't respond, there is no need to be negative to anyone on here. We are all here for support and we have enough going on in our crazy lives right now. And to top it off, our lovely hormones just add to it.

I have been EXTREMELY stressed and all I needed was to just put it out there and get it out of my head. My situation with this pregnancy is not what I had in mind and I definitely wasn't ready for it at all, but it is what it is and I have to make the best of it. I'm still having a really hard time emotionally and trying to cope with everything. This stress is not good for myself nor the baby. And honestly, I was very tempted to just leave this board entirely but the few of you guys, make it worthwhile to stay. So thank you guys for being supportive and caring. And to the rest who aren't, kiss my @$$ Smile

Agreed. I didn't read the post at all, so I'm only responding to the fact that you are now whining that not everyone out there on the interwebz is nice and the fact that you DD'd. Seriously, you're on an online message board. Not everyone is going to agree with you and not everyone is going to be nice. If it bothers you, seriously no snark intended, put your big girl panties on and defend yourself rather than deleting it. This post is just asking to be flamed.

Krissersroro · February 2012

I missed it all

but don't take it personal not everybody agrees with everything you say. I saw someone smack talking me a few days ago because I am getting a NT scan mostly for the ultrasound and not because the actual scan (honestly, nothing that scan shows would change my mind, and that's all I meant by it) and I just ignored it all together. We are all hormonal

A good outlet might be to blog about some of this and use that space as a journal-like space where you can just vent about things and not have to worry about getting attacked or disagreed with by posters.

I definitely encourage you to stay in the group, but I do think having a private place to vent might help with your stress levels some.

Thanks. I might do that. But hopefully all this *** is over with. Still would be a good thing to do though.

This board is far from mean and is really supportive. If you can't handle a few comments that don't agree with you and tell them to kiss your @r$$, you're not going to get much support.

Did I specifically call out people? No. I used the general term "people". So if you have a problem, you can just refrain from posting Smile

I kinda agree with this, I mean, I have no idea who she's talking about so it's not being THAT bad. We are all pregnant and hormonal so I think we should all agree to disagree lol

KarBear · February 2012

I read your post earlier, rolled my eyes, and moved on without commenting. If you don't want people's opinions, don't air your vents & personal drama on a public message board while sounding like a 16 year old.

MissMex · February 2012

I think your post here, the fact that you DD'd and your responses on the previous thread all equate to your general maturity level and not that you are pregnant or hormonal.

I'm glad that I didn't have a chance to reply this am. You certainly wouldn't have liked my answer. I honestly thought the thread was MUD at first. No one was rude to you in any way at all. The fact that you took it that way and created this post is beyond absurd to me.

bonjourbelle05 · February 2012

I didn't read any of the posts so I have NO idea what happened, but I think we just need to all remember that we're all pregnant and hormonal and have strong views about our babies/pregnancies (which is why we're all going to be great moms!)....people are going to make comments on posts that we don't like/agree with, but that's life. Either way, I have found this board super helpful and I love you all! Smile

on_a_whim · February 2012

I remember the OP now...

...alas, I have nothing constructive to add here - except to say that after reading all of the replies on this thread, I have literally exhausted most of what energy I had left today LOL..

mrsjenni · February 2012

If you only wanted to hear from people who agreed with you, then next time? Put that in your post.

The only rude one here is you for deleting your original post. It's rude to the people that took the time to read your story and comment, no matter what their opinions were. News flash: this is a PUBLIC BOARD. If you're going to take things personally, then this is not the place for you. Especially this board... it's as supportive as they come.

::::and this post will be deleted in 3, 2.... :::

auroraloo:
Oh FFS, you posted something on a public space and then when NO ONE WAS MEAN, but people were honest, you deleted it? Grow some balls, lady (metaphorically, please don't come back and try to say "but then I wouldn't be a woman and I couldn't get pregnant, tee hee!") and if you can't handle a little truth, then don't post on the internet at all.

Yes

DDing is lame.

Unem · February 2012

Bah. I miss all the fun stuff. I'm also surprised no one has posted the supportive bra pic yet.

If 1 more person says "We're all hormonal here" I'm going to shove my hormonal foot somewhere unpleasant.

ndelaney89 · February 2012

I understand what you're saying...there are a few soon to be mothers on the board that seem to get off on being snarky to others...don't read too much into it. If you notice it's always the same people. Just remember that most of us are here for support and a few good laughs during our busy and now stressful lives. Hang in there and just disregard to "rude" comments. You don't even know these people anyway just like they don't know you

AppleMomma · February 2012

I'm lost, and happy to be so. OP whatever has happened, I do hope things work out for the best.
