To the girl who was planning to announce in the middle of her cousin's birthday party: I wrote you a very polite and inoffensive answer suggesting you find a less AWish way to announce (I put it much more nicely earlier, but now I'm annoyed) and now it's gone. What a waste of my time.
First rule of Bumping: Don't dirty delete. It's just rude. Especially when you aren't even being flamed.

Re: How exciting... our first DD??
Wow, I'm sorry I offended you. After I read your post I decided that maybe you were right and I wasn't sure anymore how I wanted to tell my family and friends. I decided that I wanted to discuss it with my husband and I maybe I wasn't ready to share it with the world.
I'm new to this. I'm sorry to have wasted your time. Please try to understand that aren't all Bronze Posters like you are.

Consider it a lesson learned. The proper way to handle that would have been to post something along the lines what you wrote in that top paragraph there. Believe me, you're just lucky you did it here and not on one of the other more active boards.

My Blog:
Deleting a post you wrote.
Most people do it because they can't handle the answers, or comments some people have for them.

Eh, I like the occasional dose of internet drama to make my day more interesting. MamaAlex, you're not expected to know that DDing is considered bad form, but now you do, so if something similar happens in the future, just thank the poster for her advice, tell her you think she's right, and that's the end of the story. And if you take the time to type out a well-intended and in some cases well-researched response, it is pretty annoying when the poster deletes the post.
