FB group for the rest of us

Since quite a few of us were denied from the FB group, some of the girls and I thought we'd make one. I'm really not trying to start drama, but just provide a place for those of us who didn't make it into the original group.
If you are interested, message me and I will send you the link.

Re: FB group for the rest of us
True story bro. And by saying you don't want to start drama, your post and actions clearly state otherwise.
@rowanthefrog - I could be wrong but I honestly think this would have happened even if we would have done this later. The people upset still wouldn't have posted enough and this drama would have occurred either later in our pregnancies or after our LO's were born.

Yep......
My reason for not joining a fb group is bc I like being able to pick and choose which threads I want to read and actually participate in. With the fb group I feel like it's more posts/comments vs a thread with a topic. But that's me.
I also have no clue why people get upset or hurt feelings over the Internet with people they have never met (and most likely never will meet)
I will probably never put a pic as my avatar or pics in my siggy, I just feel like I can't make it private enough.
So who cares if a group is started or if another one gets started. Do what you want, and let it be. It's starting to get annoying, like all the "it's a...." or the "bfp" posts on first tri.
ETA: ugh autocorrect, stupid of's turning to if's!

Agreed. We should have waited longer.
I've gotten to know some of the ladies on here -- but I already feel like I know people better from fb -- but I also participate in both...which is why it's a "requirement" on FB.
It's just natural -- you will get to know people slightly better on FB if they're active -- and I'll speak for myself when I say it's more comforting to know that the admins are being careful about who we all have already formed a relationship with and who we haven't...
On fb -- others don't see personal info unless your profile isn't private...so I don't see myself posting on fb in the group any different than posting here -- except that I know an actual name and most people have a pic too!

My question for the lurkers/non frequent posters is, if you don't have time to get on know us or post on tb why would you even want to be on the fb group?

I thought I was posting enough, and I didn't make the cut to the FB group. Instead of freaking out, I asked what I could do to become more involved. I'm realizing now that even if I think I post enough, I'm still not considered a regular, and that's fine. I'm going to put forth more of an effort to post so people become more comfortable and get to know me. So thank you for helping me to see that I need to be more vocal and involved in the conversations
