Can we expand to common topics in general that keep rearing their ugly heads? If so, I am tired of: - Politics - Social programs - Drugs/alcohol judgements
Anything with the word NUB theory in it ( so glad when we got past that phase!) Any one else? (No!! You are the only SS) And going back to first tri. Ive taken 4 test all are negative could i be pregnant ?
These haven't happened yet, but judging by the crowd there is going to be an abundance of them soon.
"Halp, I wiped and there was a boogery substance on the toilet paper, is this my mucous plug? Here's a pic. Does this mean I'm going to go into labor tomorrow?"

This. And we don't want to see a picture of your crotch snot! Lol
Judging by this week's thread, you should avoid all future posts by Thursday Ticker ladies just to be safe.
The "measuring big/measuring X number of weeks ahead/big baby" posts.
Yes yes yes!!!!! So tired of these. Measuring big? Anyone else????? Or measuring small anyone else???? Nope no one. Ever. How do you think they get averages?
- baby shower drama - vaccine drama - baby measuring too big/too small - weight related drama - any of the "I don't really do much here so you don't know me but look at how fabulous I am!" posts
And these are from 3rd tri but are gradually going to be making their way over here soon: - Am I in labour/going to be in labour soon/how do I make it happen? - I got checked and these are my numbers. OMGZ, what does it all mean? (Answer: nothing. It means nothing.)
Judgy parenting posts from people who don't even have kids yet. And, no, babysitting is not even remotely the same thing.

The only post that annoys/concerns me is the "Should I go to the doctors?" post(s). If you believe there is something wrong you should call your doctor and not wait for a response from a forum. (it happens more on Baby Center than here but I assume it will start happening here the further along we get in our pregnancies)

How about "I just went to the doctor and he said "blah blah blah" but I left without asking any questions. Can ya'll educate me on my own pregnancy issues based on this small amount of [probably inaccurate] information that I try to repeat from memory?"
This isn't a post about what isn't "allowed", it's about what we're sick of reading about. You don't seem to have an issue saying things people don't want to read, so carry on as per usual. We do need something to keep us entertained after all.
One more: a TMI warning for threads that aren't TMI. Unless you've actually posted a pic of your mucous plug, there is no such thing as TMI on a forum about pregnancy. We are all grown ups.

Oh... I thought if I made another post to clarify about what I was allowed to post about, then I'd be called out for that... my mistake.

OMG THIS!!!
I've learnt that in pregnancy, everything is TMI. You need to get over the ickiness asap if you're actually going to attempt to survive. Any of the following is not TMI:
- poo
- pee
- gas
- haemorrhoids
- bleeding/spotting
- puking
- boobs
- leaking boobs
- any other areas that may be leaking
- hamburger vag (though yours should still be cute and flat)
- cervical mucus
- any other kind of mucus
- body hair
Things that are TMI:
- pictures of any of the above

I definitely shit my pants last week when dealing with a bit of a stomach bug. Just wanting to help out!
Ditto to all of the above! I did however do the baby name post because I couldn't figure out what middle name I wanted. One of the ladies mentioned Elise and I fell in love so we are expecting Aleksandra Elise!
Intros, or maybe just noobs who are offended that we don't love them immediately.
If you're new, just pretend you fit in and get it as best you can until you actually fit in and get it. Don't make a big deal of your newness, especially since we're almost done with the pregnancy part of this adventure.
It will take you 5-10min to get a hold of your Dr. and recieve a answer that could save you and your child's life or give you at least a peace of mind that you and your child are fine. In the same amount of time you will recieve a post from someone you don't know and will never meet in RL to tell you to call your F ing Dr!
I second the maternity picture AWs, I'm so tired of seeing these posts. I feel like they need to be consolidated into one post, where those who care to see them can love tit the shit out of them. Kinda like the nursery thread but not sticky.
anything baby shower related.......seriously the whoa is me because my family won't throw me a shower or I didn't get the gift I wanted etc, its gotten quite old.
