1. Being a FTM is not an excuse for (in this case) being stupid and lazy.
There are 500 other topics about this that she EASILY could have found had she just scrolled down on the page. But she didn't. Instead, she chose to be an AWish snowflake and post. Again. About her showingnotshowing.
I doubt understand what's so hard to grasp about this. Why is is SO difficult for n00bs to just scroll down? Or, hey, GOOGLE IT. BECAUSE OMFG.

THIS IS WHY I LOST COUNT!!!!

happy924 · October 2014

I don't get it...why do you all even click on these threads and comment to begin with? Just ignore them and move on.

happy924 · October 2014

Exactly. Nothing better to do with their time.

happy924 · October 2014

Actually @GFJ48‌ I'm here because this subject interests me. Here's an idea...anytime you see the word BLOAT or SHOWING ignore it and don't open the thread! I'm sure your wealth of knowledge is needed elsewhere.

happy924 · October 2014

Thanks, but I'm not afraid.

happy924 · October 2014

I am still confused. You all claim that you don't want these things posted because it clogs up the threads and the more important posts are getting bumped. Then why do you keep responding to the posts? By doing that, you are also bumping the threads you claim are way more important. I understand your posse of girls will now attack me. But, I could care less.

babypacey · October 2014

Wow! First thread I've ever clicked on - note to self never ask a question and always go to google!

How much less could you care? I'm intrigued!

For future use, try using the phrase "I couldn't care less." It actually makes sense.

cris0507 · October 2014

Wow. You guys are investing way to much time attacking someone for making a simple statement. Time that you could use just simply skipping over this thread. Yes, I get the fact that there a tons of other threads out there stating the same thing. You all sound like a bunch of catty high schoolers. As a first time mom myself I looked to come to a place like this to get advice from people who have been through it before. I think you all just need to relax and leave the poor girl alone for crying out loud. You're acting like a bunch of children.

happy924 · October 2014

Well said @cris0507‌.

haha YES! I saw that @GFJ48 added it to her siggy between today and yesterday and I was crackin' up.

megmama · October 2014

Hey OP: Let me fill you in! You must be new around here... FYI- They will eat you up and chew you up for dinner around here... so PLEASE RESEARCH or you will get your feelings hurt. If you think of a post, just enter it in the "search" area and read the other posts with the same topic. The reason the others are not very happy is because these posts are posted everyday and take up the space for the other new questions..("they are those veterans around here who have been here a long time) Do some lurking around different threads to get a feel for what TB is all about... good luck and congrats on your new little angel!

mrsbbourgeois · October 2014

I'm not sure why everyone is being so rude about this question being asked before. Who cares? Yes it is perfectly normal to have a baby bump. I am in the same shoes, I try to suck in around famiky and friends so they don't notice, but it's getting harder and harder! The best thing about finally getting to share the news is finally getting to not worry about that!

And you said there wasn't enough snark...

For reals though, maybe we just make a secret pact that next time one of these shows up no one responds at all. Instead we start new posts about awesome stuff like puppy gifs so we can bump it down. Because for real I can't.

Poppy715 · October 2014

Or just respond to all posts like this with random gifs on animals and food.

Baby animals!

Good job on creating a profile just so you could post this gem.

shezz09 · October 2014

Haha hit a sore spot did I . I am enjoying it actually I have MS so for me this child will be a special one I just can't believe the carry on there must be a large age gap between me and a lot of the nasties on here . I thought I might get some support along the way as if I'm still walking by the end of all this I might need it . My mistake good luck ladies and just remember karma isn't good

Oh my god please! Can we make this pact? I can't take it anymore!!!! Who has time to read through five pages of stupid questions, snark, bully accusations, and white knighting?!

ambarnett1 · October 2014

Finally read through the whole thread. The white knights obviously don't read or are AE's because the ladies on here are amazingly supportive.

If you would actually participate on this board and read some of the other threads you would understand how incredibly amazing the women are here. We've only known each other for about a month (or less) and the amount of support and love shown for the ladies who are actually going through a hard time and/or are going through the pain of a loss is just incredible.

Repetitive posts like these take away the attention and support from women who truly need it. How about instead of shaking your finger at the people on this post, you spend your time offering some support to someone else. You didn't even respond to the OP, you just berated the women who responded.

This is getting ridiculous. We've had at least three active members post about their losses today and I'm pissed that the Wks are choosing to respond in this thread instead of actually contributing to the board.

To be quite honest I didn't feel the need to respond to the OP because she probably stopped reading all the replies because they were so nasty. You're right. I should have. Like a lot of previous other commenters, I'm new to this like everyone else. Her post was one of the first ones I've actually read, and after such the welcoming experience everyone has brought on I haven't decided to look into other posts.

You're absolutely correct in saying this should about about support. We all need it for the good and bad. Maybe you should listen to yourself? Support the new as well as the old.
Instead of spending time googling gifs to poke fun at people with, reach out and point people in the right direction so they don't get bullied by a bunch of women.

I'm not disagreeing with the fact that I can see a group of women becoming so close in such a short amount of time, is it fair to pick on those that didn't get into your cool kids club? We're all either moms or going to be moms and if this is how we treat each other I am afraid to see what the future generation of our children will be.

Best of luck ladies. I don't want to be apart of something like this. I hope you can learn to be nicer to one another. We're all adults was all I'm trying to say, let's act like them.
