Wants/needs for N14 board?

I've posted a sticky for you to post the sex of the baby once you know.

Is there anything else you'd like to see or not see?

Anything for the board, or something that might make you feel a little more warm and fuzzy inside :)

  • Thank you for doing this! Sorry on behalf of those of us who were AWs when we got our MaterniT21 results. Couldn't help myself! ;) I think this is a great idea so the board doesn't get clogged. 


    I can't think of anything else off the top of my head, except that there are a lot of maternity clothes posts lately. Maybe we should have one where we can share sales, etc. rather than having it pop up in a new thread all the time? 

    Thanks for being a great mod! I'm glad I stuck with it--I am loving getting to know more about everyone. 
    Glad you stayed too :)





                                  
  • I can drop the random thread, if the consensus of the board would prefer




                                  
  • I agree on the stickies.

  • I personally like the stickies we have... I'm 100% mobile & I find it much less frustrating to check out page 2 than scroll through repeat threads before ending up on... page 2.
  • I like the stickies we have. If we want any other stickies we should decide what gets unstuck to make room. I agree about not liking too many.
  • I also like the idea of adding a poll to the blue pink thread. It's neat to see the aggregate data

  • I think it would be helpful to have a link to the spreadsheet added to the OP in the spreadsheet sticky.  Easier than trying to search the board for it when needed :)

    or maybe remove the existing speadsheet sticky and make the one with the spreadsheet link in the first post a sticky. we just wasnt to make sure not to lose any updates that people post and miss updating tbe spreadsheet with them

    Totally off topic, but @mtusnow‌ : does the mtu in your name stand for Michigan Tech University?

    You got it. And, since you actually knew I'm guessing you're probably in MI, WI, or MN.

    I graduated from Tech in 2006. I am originally from Michigan but live in Indiana now. I loved my time at Tech.

    @lisaren Any chance you could update the abbreviations sticky? It stops in the "P's" I think and it would be helpful to have it cover the gambit. (See here for all: https://augustbabies2014.blogspot.ca/p/bump-acronyms.html)



    Thanks for being our mod!

    Edit: Abbreviations link wasn't working, found a better one.

    I loved my time there too - my avatar pic is from somewhere in the Keweenaw on Lake Superior (summertime, so no snow). Now I live quite a bit farther away, and the few people here who recognize MTU will say, so it's what, about a 9 hour drive to get there? I tell them no, 9 hours will get you into the state and then you need to go about that far again. People around here aren't used to states that are so big you can still be in the same state after driving 9 hours.
  • @HisGirlFriday929, do what you want with the spreadsheet.  I'm having a hell of a time keeping shit straight these days, so feel free to delete it or do what you want.  On the other hand, I'm missing about 4-5 of the last pages of updates being added to the list.  I haven't updated since Ally's last post, which was before vacation.  I had been keeping track of people's posts and losses and moving them around, and would have been keeping track of teams, but I just don't have the time (or patience) to deal with it right now.  Posting on the board, I can do.  Updating that takes patience which I'm running low on.  Sorry for dropping the ball, guys!
    I don't even see why we need a spreadsheet in the first place. Who is it for?
    @flutterbuggie - It's for us.  Some BMBs have them so you can look to see who's due the same day and just get an idea of who all is a "member" of the board.  

    I've looked at it a few times just to see how many people we have listed and see who has due dates around me.  I think it's just supposed to be for fun, but it does look like a massive undertaking!

  • @HisGirlFriday929 or @mrsmechanic1 - I'd be happy to help too.  Do you have to have permission to edit the sheet?  PM and let me know if and how you want me to help.

  • Ok, caught up now. Just hot home from work and munching on dinner quickly. I'll go through the requests tomorrow and fix/change/add what was asked.

    Thanks for the feedback and help!!! Y'all rock!




                                  
  • Ok I wasn't sure how to edit and add a poll to old post do I added a new post/sticky with poll. So for the girls who added your results could you redo it, and clicky poll? Please and thank you and sorry :)

    Ok after a frickin shit load of issues I finally got the abbreviations up to date.

    As far as the FAQ, I like the thought of it, just doing it... hahahaa




                                  

  • @DoubleUp8 offered to help as well.  I was thinking maybe we could get her to help.  I think I should be able to get some done tomorrow, but today has just been a fuck-nut shitty day.  I seriously feel terrible for letting it get this bad guys!
    I did more of page 23 & then had to stop.  That's where we are right now.  We can assign page numbers to everyone, haha.  Stop feeling bad.
    I am happy to help @HisGirlFriday929! I will PM you.

  • I know a single thread of coupon codes & sale alerts has been mentioned. A thread (sticky or not) of helpful websites would be, well, helpful. I like the idea of having some of our awesome docs (like prenatal yoga poses & 32 shades of labia) all collected in one place with links to our knowledge sources.
  • Ok ok and ok. Hahahaha. What does everyone else think??

    :)




                                  
  • Maybe something like that can go in the PLEASE READ FIRST thread. Because we are gonna have so much stuff soon it's going to be very clogged up.
  • Or, my last BMB had (has) a blog. If someone wanted to do that and take responsibility for it, that would be a great place for everything everyone is asking for. Angel babies, coupons & codes, helpful links for pregnancy and then babies, somewhere to put the spreadsheet, etc.
  • That's a good idea that's something I can may work on.

    @lisaren with my other BMB there were a few ladies who worked on it. That way nobody is 100% responsible. Especially if life gets busy!
  • Sounds awesome!
