I just had to share that with all of the shit that I'm going through right now, one of my greatest sources of comfort are the ladies from my December 2011 BMB. We used The Bump board until our kiddos were about 2 months old and then a bunch broke off to go to Facebook for convenience purposes. These ladies are my second family and I am so thankful for them. They were there with me at 3am this morning when I was freaking out and have been a constant source of love the entire day (as they were with my first loss). Right now there are a string of lit candle pictures with supportive thoughts on our group page in honor of my sweet baby girl. I tear up every time I log on and feel so unbelievably loved by these women that I've never met IRL.
I just wanted to share because no matter the drama and such that can come from this board, there are also so many wonderful bonds that will come as well and I hope all of you ladies take advantage of it. You don't have to be someone who posts non-stop or is on the board all of the time- you just have to participate and give support. I will admit that it gets easier and we got much closer on FB once you get past screen names but it does take time to get there and I think we did it in a responsible timeframe.
I can't say that I'll be on here all of the time as we continue to figure out what life has in store next for us, but I've so appreciated the time with you ladies and hope you won't mind when I check in on you from time to time ![]()
