When did you join the April 2013 bump message board?

Curious how long we have all been around as a whole.

I started posting here when I got my BFP and posted regularly throughout my pregnancy. Having a newborn and a 16 month old took up most of my time the last few months but I've been around more consistently as of late.

I was a lurker on the March 2013 (EDD was March 22nd by one ultrasound, March 29th with another) and 2nd trimester, active on 3rd tri.. then semi-active in 0-3 month. I came here within a few weeks after he was born.

I was more of a lurker, occasional poster during 2nd and 3rd tri- but got more active post-delivery.

Sol1790 · November 2013

I found the bump when I was 8 months pregnant and just lurked. Then after my baby was born I started posting here and there. Now im on all the time

. The shy stage is long gone.

lilbit0910 · November 2013

same as pp.. i joined during my second tri but didnt become active until after LO was born

squatchiebaby · November 2013

I was a dirty lurker from about 10 weeks pregnant on. I actually intended to join but that was the really busy time for us at work and I didn't have time to get involved. After that I was just too shy and felt like everyone already knew eachother. At some point a few months ago I finally gave in and intro-ed. I really regret not getting involved during pregnancy :-/

This is going to sound dumb but I just didn't really realize the BMB was here early in my pregnancy. I spent more time on the trimester boards. In retrospect, I would have avoided them like the plague had I known! I remember being here towards the end of my pregnancy, and once I realized how much better it was than the tri boards, I stuck around.

I lurked around month 9 of pregnancy and actually started posting during maternity leave. I wish I knew this board existed early pregnancy. It would have come in handy. I felt like an outsider for so long, and finally am starting to feel like a part of the group.

Debbie0580 · November 2013

I joined April '13 right after my bfp but I was still around from DS (June 11). I didn't post alot until mobile bumping was improved. I post more now but I'd still only consider myself an occasional poster.

ceamac0127 · November 2013

I occasionally posted while I was pregnant but was more of a lurker and started posting more often after LO was born.

ToAoShesha · November 2013

I found BMB when I was about 10 weeks pregnant and have been very active since about 12 weeks. So I remember and felt close to many of the people that have come and gone

There are still a few around I remember from way back when.... but no doubt you "newbies" and 'lurkers' are cool. I love having this community that I can relate to

tondraluv · November 2013

I joined & posted right after BFP and stuck around even though Brayden is a march baby

smiles21866 · November 2013

I got my BFP August 19th and joined the beginning of September. I posted here and there but mostly lurked. I've been trying to post a lot more since having Alex. I have a crazy long term memory so I remember a lot of things that people posted during their pregnancies. It's nice having a community that you can come to and chat with.

bibliophileemily · November 2013

I joined in the second trimester because my due dates were March 30th (ultrasound) and April 2nd (LMP), and I wasn't sure which board to join. I don't remember what made me choose this one, but I'm glad I did (and not just because Sonya arrived April 3rd).

Mommymorticia · November 2013

I joined in '11 when we werent preventing. Lurked until second tri and slowly became more active.

I think I joined late in my third tri and only posted a couple of times. I didn't start reading regularly until birth stories were posted. i was hanging onto every word of those stories because I was so anxious about my own labor and delivery. I was hooked from there and eventually came out of lurking.

This exactly.

ChicagoBroad26 · November 2013

I intro'ed right after my BFP. I was already active here on other boards.

danuli8 · November 2013

I showed up the day of my first ultrasound when we saw the heartbeat at 8 weeks and change. I was nervous about miscarrying but everything turned out just fine. Now I am going cross-eyed reading about 529 plans. :-)

BellaBean76 · November 2013

I joined right after I found out I was pregnant and when I was due 4/6...but was mostly a lurker until after G was born on 3.29. Decided to stay on the April board though.

camdensmom32 · November 2013

I joined during my 3rd or 4th month while pregnant. I also lurked and occasionally posted on the March board as my due date was April 1st. I was pretty active on this board my whole pregnancy and have continued even after DS was born even though he was born March 29th.

JordynLeighx3 · November 2013

I started lurking in "babies on the brain" while planning my wedding. I was active on theknot and then when I got my BFP in August. Which is kind of funny to me, I'm pretty sure I was the last one on the boards to get my BFP and I was the first to have my babies haha

08summerbride · November 2013

I joined during first tri because I remember the month boards being so much more beneficial than the trimester boards during my 1st pregnancy once I finally found them toward the end. I don't really "know" any other posters but I like this board better than the 0-3, 3-6 etc. Boards.

sapphire021 · November 2013

I've been around since first tri, but LO was born early, in late March, so I lurked over in March for a little bit after she was born. I liked it better over here so I came back. I have to mobile bump most of the time, which I HATE, so I post less often than I'd like, but I'm here

kristalg25 · November 2013

I found the bump in my first trimester and just lurked here and there until I think my second or third tri when I made my intro and came out of lurking. I wasn't terribly active just lurked mostly because one, I hate mobile bumping and that's what I mainly do and two because my due date was towards the end of April an by the time I had a question it had already been beaten to death so I didn't ask. I did become more active after I had Ava but went MIA right after she was born because she ended up having to go back in the hospital for almost a month so it was a very stressful time for me. I came back and a lot of the " regulars" that I "knew" weren't posting anymore, and there were lots of new people. I like all the people on here now and really enjoying this board. I don't post a lot because of the two reasons I mentioned above still but I really would like to post more!!
