I'm here :-) mostly just hanging out with Macy, busy with work and I'm pregnant again so that's keeping me busy! 20 weeks now. I don't really post anywhere anymore...
I used to post a bunch. My daughter was born in Feb, 8 weeks early. Those first couple months were hell for me and I may have come off as a bit of a crazy person :P
I eventually went to my original April13 board then mostly stopped posting because I HATE it on that board (I think a lot of them are very rude), so I lurk over here all the time.
I like you ladies, but I felt I didn't really belong here because my daughter is developmentally on par with the Apr13 babes.
All rambling aside, I have been wanting to say forever that it is totally depressing that you ladies don't do HDBD anymore! I know every board says they have the cutest babies, but I have lurked on a couple, and Feb babies are way GORGEOUS. (please bring back HDBD! )
Since we missed out and I see everyone else's cute Christmas baby shots I thought I'd share what Atticus did over the holidays: A wound up naked after a rousing game of strip poker among the other babies at Mom's work party, we ate candy we made for Dad's office, rocked low-rise/over-sized PJs Grammy made, and woke up just in time to celebrate the arrival of 2014.
I also think I remember @myzticsunshine getting jumped on in the French kids/ADHD post. So I would like to personally say....
@myzticsunshine, I miss you. Please come back! You are so sweet and your kid is too cute.
I'm confused. I'm assuming you're referring to my comment to her in that thread? Did that upset her and she GBCBed? I was simply disagreeing with her and didn't think she was jumped on at all.
@myzticsunshine - I apologize for my comment if it upset you. I was simply stating how I disagreed with you on that topic. I hope you didn't feel attacked. Please don't leave.

Oh, man. Atticus is too cute I personally love him eating the candy and rocking low-rise jammies. What a peanut!
Oh hey!! Slightly flattered I was remembered. I'm still here. @Drea926 I was always convinced we'd be real life besties. You're the only person who drinks as much as I without being committed.

I read and lurk mostly because I have to resign in for so reason every time I comment.... And what I have to say almost never feels important enough to log in. Not to mention my signature thinks I am a zillion weeks prego. Thanks to all the ladies who have answered my questions when I have posted.
Awe! I'm missed!? I've been on fb learning about cloth diaper regulations. Not really all that fun. I've also been sewing a lot. And my kid has been a nightmare sleeper lately. I keep falling asleep at odd early hours! The bump makes me jump through a gazillion hoops to post replies also - it's super annoying, so I'm a lurker some days.
Yah! A post where I feel comfortable saying hello:) Im a total lurker. I'm actually and officially from the m13 bored but it is so incredibly dead and (shhhhhh) boring, I find myself here all the time. I kind of feel like I know you ladies...that sounds creepy:D I'd like to start posting here, as long as I'd be welcome:) Am I breaking Bump etiquette by doing do?
And...how can one month be so much more fun, friendly, and alive than the next? Sigh *going back to listen to crickets back at m13;)*

I say welcome! I totally know what you mean about the different bump months. My Aug14 board has a long way to go before they aren't overrun by the whackadoodles. While there are a few level heads, mostly they're just first trimester nutties wondering if this completely normal pregnancy symptom is still normal. I swear it's like... "Normally my nausea hits at exactly 4:14 pm but today it was at 4:15. Am I OK? Please tell me this is normal! Anyone else?"
And to pitter patter, karla and all the others that have popped in - thanks so much for responding to my thread! I always think the more, the merrier. :-)
I used to post a little but, but was always lurking to learn stuff. I stopped for a little while when PPD really set in and my relationship with my ex fiancée crumbled. Some of you may remember I moved from the Bay Area to So Cal to be with my ex and start our family. Things fell apart and now I'm back in the Bay, a single mom, still struggling with depression, jobless and on the couch of family members. I'm slowly trying to get my life back together. Maybe coming back to this wonderful board will be a source of laughter and inspiration. I have always felt great appreciation for you ladies! Sorry to be a Debbie Downer!
@sagen - I've always had a really good memory and it helps that I need to learn 130 new names each school year! For some reason names (even screen names) stick in my head!
Fellow lurker here! Between the little man and work, I don't take as much time as I should to contribute. I do love this community and all the good advice/support it provides. Will try to be more active!
Long time lurker. Been here since I found out I was pregnant but am also very shy. Besides someone always posts the questions that I have and saves me from having to post anyway. You lady's have been great and really reassuring through all of this FTM stuff. Just wanted to say hi! {slinks back into shadow}

@artroyer, congrats on the pregnancy! I think I remember seeing that on the Facebook group. Are you guys going Team Green, or are you going to find out the sex of the new little one? Keep us posted!
I come on here every few days. My oldest has been hogging the computer lately so I haven't been on as much as I would like. I'm one of the quiet ones but I still chime in every now and then.

OK, I need help with this. There was a poster when we were pregnant that was also having her fourth. I feel like it was esomething. ecalm? Ugh. It's killing me that I can't remember. I haven't seen her around in ages, probably because she's super busy and actually productive with her downtime. Does anyone remember her name?
