Pregnant after 35

What a nice board :)

There are a few boards that I post a bit on and a few that I lurk on a bit and I want to say that this is one of the nicest boards that I have seen!  I rarely see any snarky comments or rudeness like I see on some of the others.  I want to say that we have a classy bunch of ladies here!

    I definitely agree. I always get nervous posting on other boards but never once on here. :-)

    Wow... I started lurking on the 1st Trimester board in the past couple of weeks and I don't think I will go back, despite being 4 weeks pregnant. I like a little snark now and then, but nasty snark has a different feel. After several months on the TTC>35 board, it was a rude awakening. Too many hormones, perhaps. :)

    Hope you ladies will let me crash here!

    I only lurk on the first tri board. I'd NEVER post about ANYTHING on there. You can get attacked for the simplest question or comment. I pnly post here or in my birth club board.

    Yeah, that first tri board is scary!! I noticed there are a few people who are obviously not in their first trimester, but who hang out and post there all the time, just waiting to tear into newly pregnant women. Weird. I'm in my third trimester, and I've found that board to be helpful so far.

    I am in my third tri also and have found that the third tri board isn't so bad. My birth month board is full of people looking to start drama so I stay away from posting in there.

    yes this board is very calm.  So nice.  I post on a few other board and some I really watch what I post or I dont post much at all.

    I really think this board is so nice because we are all in our middle 30s or older.  The other boards have all different ages.  Age does sometimes make a difference.

    :( 40 in less than a month and a half!!!!

    I know! There are a few women there who seem to wait to attack newly pregnant women. I rarely see those same women post in ANY other board. It's like some weird fetish...

    Agreed!! I know I don't post a lot on this board, but some of those other boards are nasty! 
    Wonder if age has anything to do with it?

    This post is such a relief. I was attacked on the 1st tri board out of nowhere and have just watched two other posters ganged up on and ripped to shreds. I was about to give up on the bump but after reading this post I realise it's just that board that had the problem I think I will start posting here more instead :)

    I've just confirmed that I'm pregnant with my second, and I came to the forums out of sheer excitement. (Our road to parenthood has not been easy or short either time.). After reading a few threads in first tri, I was about ready to say this is not for me. This lovely and supportive forum has changed my mind. Thank you.

    I have also been made to feel stupid by a few ladies who are not moms claiming that I shouldn't be a mom(I have 1 child already). I do agree, age has to play a factor but also potentially one's upbringing. Anyhow, glad to be here and am hoping none of those ppl come onto this board and if so, we will all stick together.
