SS- I'm somewhere in the middle. While I read almost all the threads, I certainly don't participate in all of them. A lot of times I have a hard time getting across in writing what I'm actually thinking, other people have already said exactly what I was thinking (I feel like I can only do so many "exactly this" quotes without looking weird), or I feel like I don't have much to offer in the conversation. That said, I've regularly been posting in TTT, I really like that thread!
I do really like this BMB, there's a lot of great advice, differences of opinion and experiences, lots of laughs, and I guess it's just nice to feel like you're not alone in this crazy world of parenting (FTM here).
I would like to think I'm somewhat regular but I'm not sure what everyone else thinks. I used to just lurk when it was the old regs but I definitely do my best to participate now. I don't reply to every thread but I reply to most. It's great to have support here, especially since none of my good friends have kids. I actually feel like it's way easier to post now than before. I feel like some (not all) of the old regs would only speak to those in their "circle" or whatever you want to call it. I haven't seen any of the ones I'm speaking of post in a loooong time.
I voted that I participate here. I read most of the threads and I reply when I can. I enjoy participating because 1) I learn alot from you ladies 2) it's good entertainment 3) I need to get better at meal planning. Haha

I changed my avatar so maybe I'll be easier to recognize. No picture but not a generic bump one. I didn't fix a siggy because I never see them (always mobile) and don't really know what it should look like/say. I may work on it done later though.
Eta. My avatar hasn't changed yet? But when I went back to fix it, it was changed. Maybe it just takes time.
SS - I"m new here and introduced myself recently. I participate when I get the chance but haven't been around for a long enough time to be recognizable. I like it here and will continue to contribute as often as I can.
I voted participate but reading all the comments made me realize I don't have a cool avatar or a siggy which make me feel more forgettable so those will be my projects for the day, lol.
Haha, I have gone from a reg to a lurker that never bothers posting. That being said...
Now that is a SN I remember!!! I've been here since the beginning and sporadically post. I'm more active on FB but I try to put my two cents in here as well.
@HBirdie I just asked about you on the TTT post! In case you didn't recognize me by my new sn it's jpryber! Miss ya gal!
Is it sad that I didn't even notice the change @jlp0528? @Hbirdie post once in a while, we miss you. And I know I see you on SAHMs sometimes, but we miss you here.
Aww hi guys! I've been on vacation recently, and before that... IDK, I just keep forgetting to post on TB. I usually don't even get on until it's time for UOs, I love those days. :P
Hi @jlp0528! I'm doing great and so is Caleb! He's nine months now and is crazy busy... he learned how to get up stairs this last week, and he's starting to stand without holding on to anything! How are you?
Ss- I participated a lot when I was pregnant, but right now, the kiddos are keeping me so busy, that I'm not on here as much. Maybe I'll be on more once pre-school starts back up :-)
I put that I participate....when I go back to work I may be participating less. I have participated to some degree since my pregnancy. And boy has it changed around here through all that time!
I am a lurker who posts hardly ever. I just love all the advice and opinions I get to learn from. By the time I have something to say it has already been said. I participated more when I was pregnant as well.

@megd11 Go the discussion that was just started titled "Siggy help". @mommabakes gives a link on how to update your siggy. Super easy! I was 490804 weeks pregnant as well until now.
I lurk more than I post now. I've been crazy busy with therapies, doctor's appointments and life in general with 3 kids and one with SN's. I hope things slow down again soon though.
I've been here since about 2 months in to pregnancy. I signed up for TB and signed up for the What to Expect app. I decided to go with TB because it was much less bitchy, believe it or not. I don't participate as much as when pregnant, but I still come here.

I don't recognize you at all. @lilqt3929 on the other hand I totally know who you are
This. Unless there was a name change, I don't recognize them either. Ugh, not sure why it won't quote.
